it is very nice, and thats incredible that it was one of the first registered challengers!!! how hard is it to get parts there??

Thanks once again BadStratRT.
eBay, Year One, Tony's Parts, Dante and plenty more places.
I must have placed over 60+ orders alone at Year One. Parts are easy to find, shipping's the killer!! [:'(]
Usually 3-4 days is the absolute best we can hope for....other times 2-3 weeks+.


deranged - Thanks mate. We are actually TWO Islands. lol
Sure stands out down here...lots of thumbs up even from the Japanese Import crowd's.


Cheers,
Carl

NZ440R/T.....what a fabuous car. Looks like it could have been used the the Vanishing Point movie.

The engine and interior look spotless. Do the people from New Zealand even recognize what it is.

Here in the US most younger people don't even recognize it since they were not even born.

Welcome to the forum. I am hoping to own another Challenger someday. Better be soon......hint hint Chrysler.

I owned the one below for 5 years.

Thanks Jeremiah 29:11 too kind mate. I love it and that's all that really matters.
Some people know it, "A Challenger" that is, others seem to be confused with "Charger".
But, that happens in the US too. Most people just know it as a Muscle car which is fine with me.

People who know their cars refer to it as the "Vanishing Point" or "AudioSlave" car. lol


Anyhow, thanks for the compliments mate, very nice.


Cheers,
Carl

Hey Carl, Welcome to the site! Glad to have you here! I know in Austrila (pardon my spelling), that they had the 215/245/265 I6 HEMIs, did they offer this engine in New Zealand as well?

Hey mate,


Yip, New Zealand also built these cars as we had manufacturers over here.
New Zealanders and Australians raced these cars together in Bathurst and other racing series.

There are plenty down this way.
