Vehicle Description
Rarity, originality, and pure muscle - that's what makes this 1969
Dodge Charger R/T SE so irresistible. It's a correct Magnum 440 V8
coupe that's been under long term care. So this is one of those
once-in-a-lifetime opportunities for those who love a truly
distinct muscle machine that's been cherished its whole life.
While the General Lee has cemented the '69 Charger as a true icon,
this one may just be even more vivid. After all, when was the last
time you saw one of these in its factory-correct Bright Turquoise
Poly? It all looks so crisp and clear on this example because this
coupe's sheetmetal has been treated like a member of the family.
The story on this one is that it was under the same owner's care
for the first 45 years of its life. Since then, it has only had one
other owner beside a brief moment at a dealership. In fact, the
consignor was able to meet with the original owner who stated the
ultra low mileage on this hardtop is actual! These are truly
special cars with a scalloped hood (with turn signals), matching
marks in the doors, flying buttress roofline, and a hint of
integrated rear spoiler. This one even has the added distinction of
the best features from the era, like its factory-correct black
vinyl roof and a white R/T tail stripe. Plus, those dog dish
hubcaps with color-matched steelies and redline tires make this
look like a true street machine (the original Mopar mags also can
come with the sale if desired.)
The roof provides a nice preview of the black interior. After all,
on a pillarless hardtop, there are going to be plenty of people
wanting to peek inside. When they do, they'll be reminded that
Dodge was great at interiors. Those button-top seats are quite
comfortable, and while this is intermediate-sized for 1969, today
that means plenty of room for family and friends. This one really
does have a great time capsule like look, right down to the
wood-like trim and AM radio that's still on display. But what
you'll really love is how this is set up to be a driver's machine.
It has a center console, three-spoke sports steering wheel, and a
few auxiliary readouts to supplement the full gauge panel with
large speedo and tach. So this is a true muscle Mopar.
You know exactly why this one gets your heart racing the moment you
lift the hood. This real-deal R/T was born with a big 440
cubic-inch Magnum V8, and all date coding indicates this is the
same block still under the hood today. Oh yeah, this is a truely
desirable coupe. And the big orange block looks distinctive even
against the vibrant turquoise. It inhales deeply from a correct
four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales with authority from the
rumbling H-pipe dual exhaust. The Torqueflite A727 three-speed
automatic transmission is also believed to be original to the car,
and they were made stout enough to handle these big power R/Ts.
Plus, power steering and power brakes w/discs up front make sure
that this muscle Mopar also is easy to enjoy out on the road.
