The Dodge Challenger is a pretty desirable piece of kit as it is, but a one-off Challenger with custom paint is something really special. If we were to say that you could own such a car for just $100 then it would seem too good to be true. The catch is that it is a competition prize and only residents of the USA can enter.
The car has custom paint designed by 'master painter' Paul Stoll. The colour scheme is metallic blue over silver with a 'Hemi Orange' stripe where the two colours meet. Charley Hutton, famous for appearing on car makeover television shows such as American Hot Rod and Overhaulin, carried out the painting using environmentally-friendly paint from PPG.
The Dodge is being given away as a prize to raise money for the Kurt Busch Foundation. Kurt is a racing driver for Penske Racing, competing in the NASCAR series in a Miller Lite-sponsored Dodge Charger. The foundation supports organisations involved in healthcare, education, career training and rehabilitation. In particular, money from the draw will go towards funding The Kurt Busch Superdome, an indoor sports facility in North Carolina.
This is a great prize, one we'd love to get our hands on. If you live in the USA and want to enter go to
www.kurtbusch.com. The competition winner will be announced on 30th September.
