Vehicle Description
It's hard not to get excited about this 1972 Dodge Challenger.
After all, it's a beautiful coupe with all the right sporty
touches, including a 340 V8 with performance upgrades and a
four-on-the-floor. So it's already quite appealing before you
remember how fewer cars Chrysler built than it's Big Three
counterparts.
The Challenger's shape is one of the most popular muscle car
profiles in history, but there's something on this one that makes
it look even more exceptionally eye-catching. The gunmetal gray was
on the factory color palette in '72, but today it does a great job
of looking quite modern. The same goes for the hood scoops that
were borrowed to make the modern Challenger look aggressive. We
know you love the shine that comes form-hugging bumpers and those
17-inch American Racing Torq Thurst alloys (with wider rubber in
the rear to tell everyone that serious power is meeting the
pavement.) But the most aggressive elements are in satin black. The
complete set of black R/T stripes accents the curvaceous rear end
sheetmetal, and the large rear wing offers a menacing finishing
touch.
The Challenger's interior was one of the best in the era for
enveloping the driver. You get a comfortable high-back bucket seat.
And the center console gives you a direct line to the iconic
pistol-grip shifter. This is a very driver-oriented setup with the
controls for the heat as well as the upgraded AM/FM/cassette stereo
all within easy reach. The three-spoke sports steering wheel is a
Mopar classic, and beyond that is a full set of gauges, including
the addition of a very handy tach.
The 340 cubic-inch V8 is already a Mopar legend. So it's nice to
have a correct one under the hood of this coupe. But it's the
upgrades that really get us excited. You have a Holley four-barrel
carburetor, Edelbrock aluminum intake, MSD ignition, and long-tube
headers that feed the H-pipe dual exhaust. Best of all, you get
complete control over this enhanced V8 and its thunderous
soundtrack thanks to the original four-speed manual transmission.
So this is a true performance Mopar, and it even has a thick sway
bar up front, CalTracs traction bars in the rear, and grip of
modern tires so you can maximize this muscle machine.
With the prices of Challengers continuing to rise, this is the
perfect one that's turn-key ready to have fun today, and it's also
the one you want to hold onto to build the Mopar of your dreams
tomorrow. And it's all available right now if you're quick enough
to grab it. Call today!!!
