Very sharp Charger / outstanding pics.

Another DM Charger winner. This is the best in violet paint job on a mass production diecast. Love the white interiors...

Have this one too, and love it. Though not a fan at all of the whtie interior or white stripe.

C-7 is Plum Crazy for Dodge and In Violet for Plymouth in 1970.

Yes, you are correct. FC7 is called Plum Crazy for Dodge cars. Inviolet for Plymouth
I have had seven or eight high performance Plymouths, and oneDodge in my car owning history, and a lifetime of Mopar enjoyment, (among other cars, types and brands) and I tend to use the names interchangeably.
Did you know they were going to call the purple, "Statutory Grape"??
imagine the legal repercussions...
Another story on the color was when it had it's debut painted on Charlie Glotzbach's 1969 Dodge Daytona, News commentators started to call the color Statutory Grape then... So, maybe that's why Chrysler execs tossed that around for s short time.
