When does a car become a rolling work of art? Somewhere near this
car's build target! Sure, it's fully functional and fast with all
of the amenities, but it's the details which sets this Challenger
aside. Dubbed "Insidious," this rolling sculpture built by Dave
Salvaggio packs ten pounds of attitude into a five pound box.
When the 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8 debuted at the SEMA show in
2007, Insidious went as the embodiment of creativity and
customization. Shaved roof rail moldings, recontoured wheelwells,
custom front fenders, flush-fit glass, a scratch-built hood, grille
and taillight panel and zero exposed hardware highlight the body
modifications. The paint is black pearl on all surfaces, but from
the main contour on the sides down it's overlaid with olive and
sandstone pearls. When Mopar displayed it they used flood lights to
pick up the highlight!
Inside, no surface or material was left untouched. If it was
originally vinyl, it's now leather, and then some. Wilton Wool
carpeting, an Alcantara headliner, Spinneybeck leather on the
seats. The gauges are one-off pieces by Classic Instruments.
Inspired by aircraft, they swing backwards!
Under the hood is a 426 Hemi crate engine from Mopar Performance.
The cam was stepped up, and together with the Hillborn EFI system,
custom headers and exhaust system, it puts out north of 575
horsepower. Our guys spent hours tuning the engine to start and run
like a modern car-no small feat. Flowmaster donated the first set
of Super 44 mufflers available to the car. Sure, it's loud, but it
sounds great!
Both front and rear suspensions are highly modified, and all four
wheels are independently suspended. Coilovers, rack-and-pinion
steering up front and a Ford 9" center section out back with
inboard disc brakes, Symbolic TS15 20" wheels at all four
corners-every part of it custom and perfect.
Debuted on the Hot Rod Power Tour in 2007, the car met with rave
reviews. Its subsequent ventures resulted in trophies! This is a
first class and "Best Of Show" showpiece for anyone looking for the
ultimate custom Challenger or for someone who appreciates fine
craftsmanship. Challengers simply don't come better dressed than
this one.
At the Motor Car Group, we're enthusiasts first. We want you to
enjoy your new car from the minute it's delivered and the trailer
door drops. Before a car leaves our shop, it's gone through
comprehensively, both visually and mechanically. We do more than
just kick the tires, though: We fill your tires with nitrogen, road
test (if the weather permits us here in Cleveland!) and clean it
inside and out. We buff the paint using a three-step process
immediately before it's taken away so that it gleams when it
arrives. And speaking of arriving, we've ship cars all over the
world. Delivering your new ride in enclosed carrier is nothing new
for us. We'd be honored to arrange all the logistics for you! Every
car we sell, from Sunday drivers through the rarest exotics, is
meant to be driven-get out there!
If you have any questions before, during or after the sale, do not
hesitate to contact us. It's what we're here for! Call us at (440)

We're 26 miles from Cleveland Hopkins Airport and we can pick you
up when you come to inspect or purchase your car. We welcome any
prospective buyers, their buyer's agents or inspectors from Monday
through Friday during business hours, as well as evenings and
weekends by appointment. We're car people who love what we do, and
you'll feel it from the first time you contact us. Give the R&H
crew the opportunity to serve you: Our passion and attention to
detail set us apart!
