Those who are scratching their heads on what a Kowalski Edition Dodge Challenger is were probably born way after 1971, or just never heard of the movie Vanishing Point. Released in 1971, the flick was all about Kowaski, a vehicle delivery driver, that had to go from Denver, Colorado to San Francisco, California in less than 15 hours. So with a bet on the line, Kowalski hops into a white 1970 Dodge Challenger and flies through the empty highways of the West Coast.

Looking to customize your new Camaro, Mustang or Challenger? Hurst Performance has opened up Hurst Garage to the Southern California public. Hurst Garage’s own technicians are now available to install the parts that are researched and designed in the same facility.

And to personalize the overall experience of having your vehicle customized at Hurst Garage, each vehicle will receive an individually signed, dash-mounted plaque and certificate of authenticity. The VIN of the vehicle is also recorded as registration of the work done so that it can be carried along to future owners or collectors. Those that choose to have their work performed at Hurst Garage will also receive a tour of the facility when picking up their vehicle.

Hurst is also open to receiving vehicles from all around the world and will be more than happy to aid the customer in shipping arrangements. So much like what many of the European tuners have been doing, Hurst is now bringing to America.

Official press release available after the break.

Hurst Performance Vehicles used the 2009 SEMA Show to expand its product lineup significantly with the introduction of Performance Series versions of the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro and Ford Mustang. Both cars appeared in predominantly white livery with black and gold detailing.

With the debut of its Series 4 Supercharged Challenger at the Woodward Dream Cruise, Hurst Performance decided to bring back the company’s classic silver and black color combo. The limited edition silver and black cars come with a metallic red Hard-Drive pistol grip Hurst shifter, 20-inch one-piece Hurst wheels and a custom Hurst/Katzkin interior with red inserts, red stitching and red logos. In addition each car will get Hurst red and black logos on the dash and grille with badging on the wheel center caps and embroidered logos on the floor mats.

Those shifter experts at Hurst have just announced that they will offer a new modification package for the Dodge Challenger… and the real surprise is that it is available for Challengers of all colors.
