Anyone else get caught in traffic?

My normal route to work takes me onto westbound 635 in the wee hours of the morning. In case you didn't have a radio or tv on today, a busy portion of the highway was shut down between Midway and Marsh this morning just minutes before I got to that area.

Sooooo...
During the 1.5 hours (yes, hours!) I spent between the NDTollway and Midway, I had one little moment of car porn pleasure. Perhaps a fan of American iron can help me out, here, but is this a Challenger? I'd guess '69-'71 somewhere.

Aye indeede, 70-71 Great chase car in the old movie "Vanishing Point".

That is a 71 or 72 Plymounth Roadrunner. The owner drives it most days the weather is nice (You saw this in the parking lot for Town North Bank, I live close and bank there so have seen it many times). It has a 4 speed with the "pistrol grip" shifter.........
Nice driver, not a show car. Those things didn't drive very well but went in a straight line pretty good (I had a 71 Plymouth GTX back in the day, before I figured out cars turned and braked too.)That thing is worth more than most you guys would imagine.........

The marker lights make me think it's a 72. The older Mopars used a fancier lens and housing assembly instead of the simple lamp in the photo.
