1970 Hemi Challenger Convertible

[old5.0]

Looks like one of Dave Blake's cars out of Arizona. Haven't heard much about him or his dad lately, but back in the 90's it seemed like they were in Musclecar Review on an almost monthly basis.

His dad passed away a few years ago. At one time he had the largest collection of Hemi convertible E bodies in existence.

Thanks for the info.

I forgot to mention that this one is a 4-speed car, that will narrow it down to only four cars.

There is a name Milton mentioned in a Swedish article from 1990 as owner in the USA

Here is a picture when it was black:

Yes I saw that one earlier today when I googled.

According to the article from 1990 the engine was rebuilt a few times, once one cylinder was relined. It was driven as a daily driver for a few years in the 70s on salty snowy roads.

I have the VIN but the Mecum add doesn't show that.
