Dodge Challenger SRT8 Project UltravioletIt may not sound like a match made in heaven, but the result of a Jeff Dunham-Mopar partnership is sublime. Dubbed the Dodge Challenger SRT8 Project Ultraviolet, this custom Challenger is a one-off masterpiece. Slathered in a metallic purple paint with a matte black roof (giving it the appearance of a vinyl top) the Project Ultraviolet Challenger is fitted with a handmade aluminum fender flares, an aluminum front splitter, and an aluminum rear spoiler. Under the Mopar T/A hood sits its new 426 Hemi V-8 Crate engine, which cranks out 515 hp and 490 lb-ft of torque, paired to a six-speed manual. While quite a few have lamented the fact that Chrysler is replacing the Challenger with the SRT ‘Cuda, if the new ‘Cuda looks half as good as the Project Ultraviolet Challenger, we’ll be alright.
Galpin Auto Sports 1966 Ford BroncoThe Galpin Auto Sports 1966 Ford Bronco is without a doubt one of our favorite trucks of this year’s SEMA show. I mean look at it. It’s painted in the historic Gulf livery – something that might sound like sacrilege but really works. Backing up the show-stopping looks is a 6.2-liter stroker V-8 cranking out 540 hp, a redone interior with Cobra racing seats, and a fully built suspension ready to tackle the toughest of terrains.
