Steve Strope's Street Fighter Charger

[JohnnyGMachine]

Now I don't know if Steve calls it a Street Fighter or not but that's what that car really seems to be to me. If you recall Steve Chryssos' definition of what a "Street Fighter" is (and Steve I cannot find this little blurb on your new site so feel free to chime in on the real definition) this car definately fits that build style...and I absolutely love this Charger! It's like a race car for the street - wait maybe it IS a race car for the street!!! Mr. Strope, again I tell you I love this Charger especially the exterior with the white paint and the custom finished Muroc II wheels - oh man, love it! Some of the flavor of this car is already inspiring some of the details I plan on putting into my Mustang build.

Thanks for the inspiration,
John

I thought that was the car built for George Poteet. I saw it at SEMA, and it was definitely a kick-ass piece of work!

No, It's Poteet's car and he hasn't even taken delivery of it yet because Steve has it on the show circuit. In fact, it was at The Grand National Roadster Show the weekend of B-J. Should be leaving Las Vegas in a few hours....

Yup. I dig that Charger! The details are awesome:
-Dashboard
-Roll Cage
-Spoilers
-Engine Breathers
-Air Cleaner Assm
-Lightening Holes
-Windshield/Backlight tabs
-Coolant overflow tank
And best of all: Those little formed "aero" plates that cover the corners of the rear bumper. They make the car look like it's going 200 while standing still. Oof!

Traditional Pro-Touring: She's the girl you want to marry.
Mod Rods: She's the Trophy wife. It doesn't matter if you like her because she's a total babe.
Streetfighter: She's the girl that makes you do bad things (in bed and out).

Regardless of the name, I'll be thrilled as long as cars like these keep getting built.
