LOL, Around 1992 I had a 1970 R/T Challenger, Plum Crazy purple with a white top and a white interior, it was all original 383/727 auto and in nice survivor condition as it had several spots on the hood where the Plum Crazy paint was known to flake off.
It was a great driver and I had it stored in the garage waiting to restore it, My 65yo mothers car went in the shop and she needed something to drive and she wasn't comfortable driving my other K5 Blazer so I said drive the Challenger...
Somewhere down the line somebody put 440-six pack emblems on the hood in place of the 383 Magnum emblems, and I knew what was going to happen

The next day she calls and asks why are people waving her down, following her around and leaving notes on the car when she parked it wanting to buy the car. I admit it was great fun to see my 65yo 4'11" mother driving my Challenger for a week...and I sure do miss that, Thank you for bringing back a fond memory.
