You're right. I now realize this is not a factory advertisement. Apparently just somebody's private artwork.

Wheels and dog dishes.

Wish my car was red like yours! Very cool car.

 

[Redsportfury]

Thanks! Feeling very lucky. I looked for one for years and years and finally stumbled across it less than 40 miles from my house. Was meant to be.

Yeah, I'm not into the Ramchargers race car look. More into the street racer sleeper thing. These 15 inch white letters appeal to me.

That's the nicest compliment I have gotten my car being put in to the same class of looks as the legendary ram chargers cars thank you.

 

[Redsportfury]

It's definitely a beautiful car!

With the old bone stock 440 I had in there it would go high 13 teens with my new engine not sure yet but it did dyno at 665 hp at 5700 rpm so it's going to be a whole lot faster than it was

Aw man, that sounds like fun. Can't imagine having that kind of power in one of these cars.
How much suspension work are you doing to keep that monster stabile under that kind of load?

That's gorgeous. Sounds like you've covered it all. Make sure you post a video when you get this on the track.
One more question. What kind of fuel will you use?

 

[Sonny Black]

Survivor = don't screw with it. The spinner caps look great, why not leave them? If you must, go with original dog dish & 15" wheels. Save the big wheels for late models. Of course do what you want, unless you want to please a committee, I'm sure I'm in the minority on my opinion.

396, yep....:wav::sunny::edgy::icon_thumleft:
