Vehicle Description
With a highly detailed restoration, a terrific fully coordinated
color combo, and the sweet rumble of its original Magnum V8, this
real-deal 1971 Dodge Challenger R/T is the kind of car that turns
your garage into a showcase.
This is a terrific total package. The consignor states that this
was given a complete rotisserie restoration, and the proof is in
the details. The panels expertly fit together, and the
factory-correct Bright Blue Metallic paint has an electric-level
shine. And even more shine comes from the bumpers, hood pins, and
the 15-inch Rallye wheel trim. But what makes this a true icon are
the aggressive touches, and those have been featured in satin in
black. The hood treatment highlights the ram air openings; the
complete set of black R/T longitudinal stripes accents the
curvaceous sheet metal; and the large rear wing and matching tail
panel offer a menacing finishing touch.
Mopars of this era have always been a nice place to spend some
time, but this one goes the extra mile with a full blue interior
that nicely coordinates with the exterior. This Challenger goes for
both a premium and a sporty feeling with all the right elements. It
starts with bucket seats and desirable center console. The wood
grain in the center nicely coordinates with the door panels and
dash for the right period-correct feeling. In fact, this one goes
for so much originality, that even the AM radio is still in place!
That means the restoration spent money even getting the details
right on everything from the space-saver spare in the trunk to the
three-spoke sports steering wheel. And Mopar fans know how special
it Is to have the Rallye gauge cluster that features the large tach
prominently in the center - just like a racecar.
When you peek under the hood, you'll find an engine bay filled with
big block Mopar power. People will marvel at the correct
presentation of the bold orange block, correct decals, and factory
air topper. You'll take pride in telling them that this is the
original numbers-matching motor, too! It inhales deeply through a
four-barrel carburetor, which helps contribute to the wicked snarl
of the Flowmaster dual exhaust. The three-speed automatic
transmission is original to the car, too, and the way this one
shifts, you know it has received the proper care over the years. In
fact, as you look at the undercarriage photos, the cleanliness of
the whole car reminds you the advantages of a solid investment and
the confidence it gives you for the future.
Correct-color, numbers-matching Challengers are always a favorite
of enthusiasts. And this one even comes with the factory build
sheet to prove its pedigree. So if you're a fan of high-quality
American muscle, don't let this one slip away. Call now!
