Vehicle Description
The iconic shape, original details, and the unmistakable cool
rumble of a V8 muscle car. This 1974 Dodge Challenger delivers
exactly what you want from a classic Mopar, and does it for an
obtainable price.
The '74 Challengers are a true collector's item. They were the
final year for the first-gen, and they didn't even get a full
production year. That makes them the rarest from this iconic era.
We love these Challengers because they look fast even when parked.
It comes from elements like the full-length crease in the
sheetmetal that flows down the car and draws attention to the
sporty kick-up at the rear fender. The R/T hood with twin scoops,
hood pins, dual exhaust tips, and mag-style Mopar road wheels are
all part of this performance look. It's nicely detailed, right down
to the turn signal indicators still on the ends of the front
fenders. So it's just great to find a complete example like this
that's also still has an obtainable price.
Blue exteriors with blue interiors always are a cool look. This has
a highly original presentation, and so the price leaves room in
your budget in case you want to update any parts. But what we
really like is that this comes with the best factory features, like
the high-back bucket seats and a center console that forms around
the driver. And the dual-spoke Tuff steering wheel gives you a nice
view of the sporty round gauge package. This is a factory air
conditioning car with most of the components still in place (will
need servicing to blow cold again.) Plus, there are some handy
upgrades like an AM/FM/cassette stereo and a large AutoMeter
Sport-Comp tach on the center console.
Under the hood is proper V8 power. The 318 cubic-inch motor is the
correct spec for this car. Plus, this V8 has received some nice
upgrades, including the fined Mopar valve covers, an upgraded
intake, and upgraded four-barrel carburetor. Purists will also be
happy that a stock carb and intake come with the sale, too. It's
easy to take this one around town thanks to good driving features
like the three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, wide
BF Goodrich T/As, and power brakes w/discs up front.
Rarely is a first gen Challenger within budget. And this one gives
you a complete V8 coupe that you can not only enjoy today, but also
it gives you plenty of potential for any projects you want to plan
for tomorrow. Call now!
