Default RE: Special challenger??


Wow Quickie! Your Challenger is one of about two hundred that was "assembled" in France. I use the term "Assembled" very loosely, because most of the these cars were assembled at Hamtramck, then all final production of the Challengers were assembled at the SIMCA plant in Paris. The Challengers were shipped to France, about 95% assembled, things like trim and headlights are done in France.

Most of the Challengers were painted white, and had black interiors. The VINs are different than its bretheren stateside, thanks to regulations in France, the Challengers had partial vins (0E126085) because of the partials stamped all over the car. The fender tags were made of aluminum, and some of the cars had Talbot rear view mirrors installed on them as well.

There was reported that ONE French-Assembled Hemi car was exported back to the states.

Hope this helps...I think I have posted this topic somewhere here before...
