Still at home in the San Fernando Valley; just about to head to BCT at Ord. I remember going up once to ask the Dodge dealer on Van Nuys Blvd. "just out of curiosity, how much is one of those Chargers?" (I loved the Mustang but figured it was unobtainium.) He told me about $4800. "How about with a 4-speed?" "Same, but we'd have to order it - and it's half down just to place the order since that damn movie came out."

I will be watching this tomorrow night, fondly noting shorty .357 and all.
