Default RE: '70 challenger western sport special, rare?

wow...very interesting!

i would like to know what kind of shape its in for 500 bucks. the WSS is certainly no TA, but its sort of a "rare base model".

the Western sport special was only sold by dealerships in san francisco and LA areas. this is copied from another post of mine, discussing the WSS option, as many people havent heard of it..

option code A91..it was basically a base model with a woodgrain dash inlay, rimblow wheel, remote mirror, a bunch of moldings upgrades such as the sill, belt, splash pan, rear quarter panel decal, different pedals, and bumperettes...it came mostly with the base 318, but it could be applied to any base model challenger, which includes slant six and some 383 cars....ive read in a couple mags about how allegedly they made ONE T/A with a WSS package, but there is nothing to prove that, other than some folks who were lucky enough to be alive back then who claim to have seen one in B5 blue...no one can produce proof, and different mags have argued about this.
production numbers by engine:
145 - 225cid
1,066 - 318cid
381 - 383cid

basically, it was kind of a base model, with a decal set and similar upgrades to the SE models.
