Vehicle Description
This is a rotisserie restoration paying tribute to the legendary
1970 HEMI Challenger. It started life as an early production car
from Chrysler's Los Angeles, CA, assembly plant, painted red with a
318ci engine. It has been restored in HEMI Orange and is powered by
a Mopar 472ci factory crate engine mated to a TREMEC TKO 5-speed
transmission. The differential was replaced with a Moser M60
Sure-Grip with a 3.54 ratio. Also added were a new fuel tank, fuel
pump and Holley 850cfm HP Terminator carburetor, a complete MSD
ignition system with distributor, wires and coil. New power brakes
were installed, with front disks/rear drums, including master
cylinder and booster. Additional items were addressed, such as
rebuilding the Rallye instrument cluster, installing correct
badging and vinyl decals, adding new adjustable upper control arms,
rebuilt power steering box, new seat belts, including front seat
shoulder belts, new heater core and hoses, factory-correct Rallye
wheels and Goodyear Polyglas GT tires ("show tires"). The vehicle
also comes with four BFGoodrich radial tires, including
street-legal slicks for the rear, all mounted on correct Rallye
wheels ("go tires").
