I know these cars did not come in Moulin Rouge, but has anyone ever seen one painted that way? Thought it might look cool.

Nick over at pantherpink.com has an original pink 71 Charger. It's coded 148 on the fender tag for the body paint (instead of FM3 or 999). That's the only 71 B body originally built in the color that I'm aware of.

I saw that car. It is what got me thinking about it. Even though a plymouth B was never officially made, I wonder if someone has decided to create their own :D. Maybe I can be the 1st! Pink with a black strobe would be cool!

I think I saw that car today around town in Mooresville, NC. It won't let me upload the photo.
