Hi all

I'm the proud new owner of a Challenger. It was mis-sold but I am happy with it! It was advertised as a 1970 but after getting it shipped from PA to Scotland I've discovered it's a 72 from the vin. Someone's done a decent job of making it look like a 70! The only reason I'm not sending it back is the 512 stroker which is making me grin! Has been set up as a strip car so needs a few bits and pieces to make it road legal here in the UK but should be on the road in a few weeks. Ive already done some lurking here but will undoubtedly be asking some questions soon! This isn't my first mopar - I've got a 68 Charger and my daily is an 87 Bronco. Just sold my 74 Camaro so I can officially get offended by Ford, Chevy and Mopar jokes!

Welcome from Michigan! Nice looking 70, er I mean 72. Someone did some nice work on the conversion.

Good looking car! I bet that will fly!
Do you have a strip near you ?
100 miles away - round the corner for USA but other side of the country for me!!
Will probably get it over next year - winter is rapidly approaching now!

Welcome to FEBO from the desert! Would be interesting to know what it would run as it looks much lighter than stock! That's a bonnie Challenger for sure with a 512 big block! 😉
