Very well known car back in it's day. Much like the similar colored and huffed Challenger that resurfaced a couple of years ago.

Steve Lisk's orange Challenger or another? Lisk's Challenger is iconic and killer, just didn't hear what happened to it.

Not Steve's but another Silver colored one with multi colored accents and a blower. I will see if I can find the photo as it was found a couple of years ago.

Lisk's Challenger was unreal back in the day and way ahead of its time and is considered to be one of the cars that started the Pro Street rage.
