Having trouble deciding which of America's three latest muscle cars is right for you? Well, at least you're not alone. We ourselves at the Autoblog HQ have had lengthy debates on the merits and drawbacks of each model, and the expected ongoing series of improvements to the <a href="http://autoblog.com/model/camaro">Camaro</a>, <a href="http://autoblog.com/model/challenger">Challenger</a> and <a href="http://autoblog.com/model/mustang">Mustang</a> are sure to drive a wedge between <a href="http://autoblog.com/make/gm">GM</a> Gearheads, <a href="http://autoblog.com/make/ford">Ford</a> Fanatics and <a href="http://autoblog.com/make/dodge">Mopar</a> Maniacs until the end of time.<br />
<br />
Or, as seen above, you could go a slightly different route and combine all three ponies into one model, which we've taken the liberty of christening the Challarostang. A Vulcan Mind Meld between the front fascia and hood of a Challenger, the bodysides of a Camaro and the hind end of a Mustang, it actually doesn't look nearly as crazy as you might imagine. In fact, we kinda dig it.<br />
<br />
According to Robert D, the Challarostang's modeler, the automotive ménage à trois seen here took four months to complete. Next question, which drivetrain do you choose? <a href="http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=24435&st=0">Click here</a> for a description of the build process from the modeler himself.<br />
