Doesn't sound like illegal help to me. Hope he finds the VIN for that car.

Yea, I was confused about that too.  Seems he is just looking for the original stuff.

The guy is a friend of mine. He has good leads on the fender tag a vin plate. He's a good Charger guy trying to save a rare piece of history.

Is it rare just because it is pink? Or are there other rare options? I guess it's hard to know with no numbers.

A fender tag?...or THE fender tag for that actual car. If not the original tag (or possibly an exact replica of it) he's not saving a rare peace of history...he's cloning it.....a very different thing. With a fraction of the value at sale time depending on how honest he is.

Based on what I know of Charger-Bodie over the years and reading his post over a few times the guy is looking for THE fender tag and THE VIN plate.  He is well aware of the funny business of car repair.

To clarify . Mark has a lead from one guy who is very likely to have THE fender tag. He has a separate lead on a guy that says he had THE vin tag . May never come together , but maybe. I assure there is zero funny business involved .

Looks cool to me  :popcrn: , although thats alot of work for a pink car  :rofl:

Was this car on the pantherpink website?
It looks kind of familiar.

chargerboy69

I look at the car and I would have left it where is was.  What am I missing? Are pink 70 Chargers really worth the amount of time and money this thing will take? I dont know enough about the pinks 70's to know.

Wow I wonder what the existence is of the lone pink /6 '70 Charger is? Is it an auto? 3 on the tree?  :scratchchin:

101 cars painted FM3 in 1970. I heard this was the lowest percentage color chosen. 6 month availability.
Thank the lord for that. That Pepto Bismol color is terrible. I can appreciate the rarity and historical significance but Jesus, that is a hideous color for a car whether a Man or a Woman drives it.
I'm all for the guy getting the car back together, at least for the sake of saving a rare car.

Wonder how many were R/T SE or had a Hemi in it? LEON.
