Now this 1970 R/T will turn some heads! Tuxedo combination colors
are absolutely killer! This is really what drew me to this car. the
fact it is a real R/T with a 440, pistol grip shifter, and the 4.10
Dana rear sealed the deal! Not only is it stunning to look at, it's
a blast to drive!
EXTERIOR: Slick mirror like finish. The black paint is polished
well enough to shave in. The body panels line up straight. There's
no shrinkage or ripples in this paint job! Born with the optional
R/T package which features a very stylish front valance, power
bulge hood that's fitted with dual hood pins and a racing flip open
gas cap. It's stanced perfectly on 15" Rallye wheels with Cooper
Cobra radial tires. Now what sets this apart is the white accented
vinyl top. It's in very good condition with no cracks or tears. The
glass appears to be original and in really good condition. The trim
is good with light patina as well as the chrome bumpers. You could
add white hood or side stripes to really make it pop!
INTERIOR: The interior is good! It's not a brand new restoration
but it's nice enough to show off and not be afraid to drive around.
Again, the white interior pops so well from the black and really
sets this R/T apart from others. The door panels have been dyed
white and are in good condition, The white bucket seats are in
really good shape with a Hurst 4 speed pistol grip shifter in
between them. The carpet fits well, and the headliner is original
but still in good shape with minor wear. The woodgrain Rallye dash
face is a perfect contrast to the black and white. It appears to be
original and still in good shape. It holds working gauges including
the tachometer. Last but not least, it's been upgraded with a Sony
stereo and custom sound system.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Under the hood is impressive! It's been
upgraded to a period correct 440ci engine pushing 450HP. Built with
flat top pistons, and a nice 509 Mopar Cam. It's completed with MSD
ignition, aluminum high rise intake with dual feed Holly carb,
Edelbrock air cleaner, billet pulleys and brackets, and a fuel
pressure regulator with AN hoses and fittings.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Under the trunk lid has been painted smooth, and
glossy, as well as the jamb. New weather-stripping has been
installed. The entire trunk itself was also painted black and
glossy. It is completed with a trunk mat, giant subwoofer with a
big amp to power it.
UNDERSIDE: Ground up restoration, rust free. The front suspension
components look to be replaced, upgraded poly bushings in the
steering, and front sway bar. The rear leaf springs, and air shocks
were replaced and look very clean. This Challenger is upgraded with
4 wheel disc brakes. The gas tank looks new, as well as the lines
and high flow inline fuel pump. The dual exhaust is clean with H
pipe, FlowMaster mufflers, and completed with quad square tips.
Looking up at the motor it has a larger capacity pan, and
everything looks dry. It's mated to its original numbers matching 4
speed manual transmission. The rear end is HD Dana 60 4.10
sure-grip correct to the car, with a chrome cover. The floors, and
frame rails are very nice clean metal that were prepped, and
refinished nicely.
Service: Through our stellar shop inspection, the following items
have been repaired, installed, and fitted to the car. We
extensively went through this R/T to make sure it's in top
mechanical driving condition. The carb was replaced and adjusted;
the timing was set. A new aluminum water pump was installed. All
new factory gauges were installed and functional. We adjusted the
reverse linkage and switch, replaced speedo gear to show proper
speed. New sway bar end links were installed and a 4 wheel
alignment performed. New door bumpers and seals installed as well
as passenger window regulator. New front calipers, pads and rotors
were also installed. This was all completed for a grand total of
$5,500!
This is just a fun, iconic muscle car. Introduced at the height of
American muscle, this Challenger R/T checks all the boxes. Not only
does it look really good, it drives really nice as well. Take this
out for a cruise and be proud to show it off. It'll be a
conversation starter wherever you take it. The look, sound, and
upgrades are why we fell in love with it.
A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am
offering is my professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen
are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure your
questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a
walk around video that explains the car's condition in detail.
