Default [FJ] Exclusive! One-Off Dodge Challenger Rolls To Cruise Night!

Could it be that this is the only existing working prototype of the new Dodge Challenger?

I popped in to a local cruise night to hang with some friends, did a double take, then quickly walked back to the Focus to grab my lil' point and shoot. The men handling this carbon fiber-bodied one-off concept were swamped; the car had a gazillion people drooling.

All I know is that the motor's a Hemi, the trans is a Viper six speed and the rear suspension is independent. Apparently, this Challenger concept is making the rounds nation-wide to some well-known local cruise nights.

This was at Bob's Big Boy in Toluca Lake, California; home to a Friday night cruise every week since 1962.

Enjoy the pics; I shot from the hip with my Pana FZ-5 and a dying battery.

























If you want to see this machine make it to production, go to Dodge.com and tell 'em what you think - even about every little detail - 'cause they want to know - or so I was told.
