Johnny Lightning 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T 440 Magnum in Blue

Johnny Lightning's Celebrating Forty Years 1970 Dodge Challenger goes all out on the body details! Silver trim on the grille insert, front bumper, windows, sidelights, door handles, tail lights and front end just to get you started. The silver, black and red lettering is very finely detailed and stands out very well. The blue has a whole lot of flecks in it for a really great sparkle. The black body length side stripes and Dodge lettering on the hood's black decal along with the black interior seal the deal. Oh, and about the hood...it clangs shut with a resonating metallic sound that really gives it the feel of real. I would drive this car if it were 1:1 scale! I would drive it if I were 1:64 scale too!!

The Chrome rims on this Challenger are unlike most of the Challengers in my collection. I have not found out much about the alternate rims showing in the last two photos. If anyone know what either of these rims are called please email me at challengeroftheday@gmail.com

The words below are from the back of the package/card. Some things do get better with age!

"Some things get better with age, but for each of its 40 years Johnny Lightning has set the standard for authenticity and collecting excitement! With a keen eye for detail and acute hearing of what collectors wanted, Johnny Lightning embraces turning 40 and is looking forward to its next 40!"
