No. Leave it as it is. Steve has said previously he doesn’t want censorship.

This thread is amazingly instructive as to what was said and by who.

The truth needs no defense. It will stand on its own just fine.

I think it is an awesome story… I hope that they do end up make a movie about the car. It would even be cool if they made a modern version with the 2023 Challenger Black Ghost.

The 2023 Challenger Black Ghost should have had the African flag below the Challenger badges. Dodge should have also incorporated the alligator skin into the seats to match the original top.

The car is 1 of 22 4 speed Hemi Challenger R/T Special Editions. And it has a Gator Grain Top.

In one of the garage photos it shows the car with a wire wheel cover and now the car has dog dishes. Which wheel covers did it come from the factory with?

In the last photo of the right side @ MCACN, you can see signs of previously installed full wheel covers of some style by the scratches on the outer most lip of the rims. Bill

The car left the line with 15" steel wheels and the standard small caps. Godfrey would occasionally run with the 14" wheels with the wire wheelcovers and would also swap out the rears for slicks when needed.
