Original Dodge Challenger
Discussion
Agreed P5 ! And to think that I sat there in 72 !!
Will never / ever forget as I aproached the school gate at 3.30 one afternoon in circa November 72 and seeing that Challenger parked up in the narrow service road that led down into Loughton High rd.
The look on the other kids faces as they saw the car was just Priceless !!

Circa 1973 .
My 1970 440 RT Challenger. Location then was Crossoak Lane , Salfords , Surrey.
Nearby was the A23 pre M25. Drove that bad boy every morning up to Billingsgate Mkt at 4 am.
American auto parts in Wallington , Steve Thompson in Thornton Heath. Suppliers and mechanics.
Preceded by a 1966 260 Tiger. Followed with a 454 manual Corvette. Part exchanged the 'Vette for an orange LHD 2.2 911 E .

Can you recall the reg number ?
I've often wondered how many Challengers came to Blighty during the 1970s,

GGY rings a bell but that could have been the Z28.
