Wow!  I'm almost never right when it comes to old car
stuff.  It was the black stripe on the back that made
me guess R/T though.

So, tell me, Paul, since you're a car guy.  You've got
me thinking about Chargers now, and I recall that
Dodge made a Charger back around then with a flush
backlight (as opposed to the usual concave one).  They
only made a small amount of them (like maybe a couple
thousand or less), basically the minimum so that
they'd comply with NASCAR (or whatever the stock car
governing body was called then) regulations, so they
could race that car.  Seems that having the backlight
flush was aerodynamically superior, and allowed them
to get a few more mph out of it.

It was pretty successful racing, IIRC.  Apparently,
they're ~real~ rare and expensive now (if you can find
one).

Do you (or anyone else) remember which Charger that
was?

cheers,
frank
