Details include five-spoke Hurst alloy wheels and a classic pistol-grip Hurst shifter
Also sounds out of my price range.

Chatsworth, California — HURST is one of the most recognized and revered names in the history of performance automobiles.

RE: Hurst Challenger
Paladin, Im right with ya. While a real sharp lookin ride, I cant get past the thought of it being a Hurst. I can only relate Hurst towards GM cars, notably Olds. In fact a buddy in HS, Mike Merz, had a Hurst olds just like that pictured by jvmax. So my thought for this is a big NO
ORIGINAL: Paladin06
Hurst Challenger, IMVHO, NO!!!
