"Next Victim"

This is the Colt the fiberglass molds were made from. The body I had looked exactly like this except of course for the paint. Mine was just black gelcoat when I sold it.

This gold car was rebodied for Sox and Martin as a 78 Dodge Challenger according to Clyde Hodges (from my coversations with him during the last couple of years before his death). He said the gold Colt body was sold to someone in Florida.



Now this is totally an assumption of mine from what I remember: The stretched B/A Dodge Colt must have been a different chassis (not this gold car modified) with a fiberglass body that would be easy to modify for different wheelbases. That may be the reason there were molds made of the entire car.
Back to our conversation... I always thought the white Rod Shop sponsored Colt was a longer car overall. Clyde said the overall length was not changed.. only the wheelbase was altered.

Pictures 1 and 3 show the gold Colt with standard wheelbase.

Picture 2 shows body move forward on chassis 10 inches plus front wheels moved forward an additional 10 inches.

Picture 4 shows body returned to standard position on chassis but front wheels left 10 inches forward. I believe this to be the final version.
