Funny 71 Challenger resto... - 04/13/23 09:51 PM

Although not a Muscle car thought Id share a resto we are doing of a '71 Challenger Funny Car... Was a BB/A car built in 1971 and ran until 1980. The plan is to return it to its original configuration as a show piece of days gone by...

That is really cool. I also have a 1971 AA/FC that we restored and have had it at a number of NHRA events. The car is currently on display at the Automotive Hall of Fame museum in Dearborn, MI. We had to recreat the original body, it was destoryed at the last race in 1975. The headers are not original to the car, everything else is 100% original at last ran.

If you need any help with information, let me know.

Very cool!

Are you restoring it to one of the 3 previous paint schemes shown? If so, which one?

The Panther Pink/White...as it was originally built by first owner (Ron Walsh). The second owner (Joe Piluso) added the J&J and other adornments. The Chassis has been repaired and is getting painted in the next couple of weeks.
