challenger collections - 11/13/21 02:28 AM

anyone know who has the best collection of challengers ? i have seen some that were claimed to be in the "brothers " collection. most were ta's in every color. it seems like most [440-6-pack or hemi] are very privately held ?

Any 'best' vintage Challenger collection would not be based on 'just' the performance models.



To truly appreciate history as a premier type collection, it would have to appreciate all of it, not just a 'chosen few'.

Best is a subjective term.

may as well ask if redheads are better than blondes.

Been to the (Brothers) collection 2 times, only a half hr drive from me. I have some pics I think. I would go there once a month if I could. Pretty neat place to say the least.

they have a large number of 1971 shaker cars ! i was curious if there are any other collectors / collections out there... i had no idea the brothers collection existed until last year ! the finest challenger i have ever seen was at a charlotte nc. show in 2001. it was a 318 white car. it had never been driven ! it was in a climate controlled bag! it was listed as a " TIME CAPSULE CAR " up

My friend has about 10 of them one is a V code convertible R/T. 3 of them are V code hardtop cars two of them are 4 speed cars. He has 4 convertible cars one of them is the v code car. And a go mango T/A . No Hemi cars though. It's a private collection, so he takes some of them, one at a time to local shows and cruises.
