that is my old car it ran a 13.7 on street tyres at 107 mph. i've been in touch with Howard and gave him some history about the car as it is quite interesting. I bought it after a drunk rite off my first 440 R/T Challenger! If anyones got some more pictures of it or my Challenger reg 49L i think, I'd appreciate it?

The car was originally Paul Batemans he had bought it for £390 + tax from RAF Molesworth in the early 1980's it belonged to a US airman that had been deported back to the states after being set to prison for drugs offences. It was originally Turquoise and Paul painted it Triumph Primrose yellow. Before sold it he took off the aluminium tunnel ram and the rear gears. I still think he still has a couple off mopar's in sheds gathering dust.

Was that definately RAF Molesworth? I seem to remember a turquoise/blue 68 coronet at Lakenheath lurking in the back of the "hobby" shop yard around 1980/81 which had been left by a serviceman going back to the US. It still had class winner stickers from some drag strip in states in the rear 1/4 lights. We were told in no uncertain terms that it would NOT be for sale though.Anyone remember Pauls tunnel rammed Challenger? One of many cars he owned . Didn't he end up breaking the 68 GTX from the film " Shutdown".DaveBishop wrote:The car was originally Paul Batemans he had bought it for £390 + tax from RAF Molesworth in the early 1980's it belonged to a US airman that had been deported back to the states after being set to prison for drugs offences.
