Up For the Challenge
My cousin Al called me one day
and told me that some guy he
was talking
to at the Pep Boys Car Show
said that his
friend had a Challenger For
Sale. The man
described the car as having
a small back window
and being a FC7 Purple car with
a Six Pack and a 4 Spd.
We were a little skeptical.
After Al looked at
the car he called me to verify
the VIN
and sure enough it was a V-code
RT/SE. We
were both very surprised. Al
Decided to pass on
the car and gave the info to
me. I called the owner and
struck a deal to purchase the
car.
The Challenger was optioned
out like a normal RT /SE.
HRX9 Leather Interior, C16 Console,
AM-8 Track,
M31 Belt Moldings, C26 Overhead
Consolette, A62
Rallye Instruments, G31&33
Racing Mirrors Chrome,
J45 Hood Tie Downs, M26 Wheel
Lip Moldings, Etc. Well
there is one thing about this
Challenger that
is not like any other, the color
combination
was different. The car was finished
in FC-7 Plum Crazy
Purple with a TX9 Vinyl top,
V21 Hood Performance Treatment
and V9Y Sport Stripe Bumble
Bee in Gold Poly!!! I have
never seen or heard of another
RT / SE with this color combo.
Performance options on
the car are as unordinary as the color
combo. A34 Super Trak Pak 4.10

front wheel wells so the
