Vehicle Description
Thoughts of the legendary Charger immediately bring to mind a near
perfect blend of basic transportation and big performance. See,
back in the late '60s when muscle cars started packing on premiums
to increase margins, Dodge continued to honor the tenets of the
cheap speed movement. In fact, the second-generation Charger was
carefully designed to stay firmly grounded in the realm of
affordability. And today, 50 years into the future, that adherence
to principle fosters a remarkable line-up of classics that, because
of their purity, seem to perpetually gain value. Take this
brilliantly sinister coupe for example. Combining 440 cubic inches
of numbers-matching big block with a numbers-matching 3-speed, a
fresh rotisserie restoration, and a roster of both exceptional and
logical upgrades, it's an excellent example of why vintage Detroit
metal will always be incredibly appealing. Shopping for an
unadulterated embodiment of the quintessential muscle car? Take a
long look at this impressive MoPar!
IS THERE ANY OTHER COLOR?
An authentic Charger R/T that's worn sinister Black pigment since
it left the factory, this striking resto-mod is the beneficiary of
a meticulous rotisserie restoration that left no bolt unturned.
Naturally, that multi-year reboot included modern two-stage and a
traditional R/T deck stripe. And the car's stunning shell reflects
timeless beauty through Gtechniq 9-year ceramic protection. At the
front of that shine, a stainless-trimmed grille hides modern halo
headlights behind a polished bumper, a sporty "Charger R/T" script
and LED parking lamps. Behind that grille, a scalloped hood centers
small turn indicators in front of crisp glass that's cleared by
matte wipers and traced in polished frames. At the sides of that
glass, a sleek profile centers classy mirrors and factory door
handles between an ornate fuel filler, LED markers and sporty
"Charger" emblems. And out back, a second polished bumper guards
LED tail lamps and a second "Charger R/T" script.
ORIGINAL PLUS!
When this world class Dodge rumbled into the RKM Performance Center
it caused such a commotion that our entire staff came out of their
offices just to check things out. When they tilted the car's long
hood and found 440 cubic inches of fuel injected big block, they
certainly weren't disappointed! At the top of that numbers-matching
mill, a handsome Mopar Performance air cleaner swirls wind into a
requisite EFI throttle body, which rides a lightweight Edelbrock
intake. That intake, lined with bright fuel rails, feeds stock 440
heads, which tilt attractive Mopar Performance valve covers under
polished Mopar Performance breathers. At the front of those domes,
a billet distributor shoots fire through loomed PerTronix
Flame-Thrower plug wires. Below those wires, long headers pump
spent gases through custom exhaust pipes. Color-keyed Billet
Specialties Tru Trac serpentine components spin an aluminum water
pump behind a polished alternator and a coated AC compressor. A
muted aluminum radiator hangs quick spinning Maradyne pullers
behind a billet cap. Aesthetically, the brilliant block provides an
excellent complement to the car's crisp, body-matched engine bay.
And details like a Wilwood master cylinder, a deep Milodon oil pan
and an old school Chrysler washer tank add a little flash and
function.
ORIGINAL PLUS TOO!
Bottom-side, a numbers-matching A727 3-speed twists torque through
a quality GEAR VENDORS overdrive. That tastefully updated take on
originality spins a shortened driveshaft that's hooked to a
requisite Chrysler 8.75-inch axle, which employs a Sure Grip
differential and big, 3.91 gears. That pumpkin pushes a retrofitted
4-link rear-clip that's built around welded subframe connectors and
RideTech coil-over-shocks. Power-assisted rack-and-pinion steering
leads a retrofitted independent front-half that's finished with
tubular A-arms and two more RideTech coil-overs. Quick stops are a
cinch thanks to power assisted Wilwood calipers, which push 20
pistons against a quartet of drilled and slotted rotors. The
aforementioned headers push spent gases into wrapped and
Mandrel-bent pipes, which align throaty Flowmaster mufflers with
small resonators. Plenty of 'Go Juice' is provided by a fresh
stainless fuel tank. And at the corners, color-keyed Forgeline
CH3Ps turn custom offsets inside 245/35ZR19 Michelin Pilot Super
Sports and 295/30ZR20 Michelin Pilot Super Sports.
IS THERE ANY OTHER STYLE?
When you pop this Charger's doors, you'll find a thoughtfully
updated cockpit that honors the car's legacy of being unabashedly
old school American muscle. Top dead center, a body-matched dash
hangs predictable Dakota Digital VHX telemetry next to controls for
Vintage Air conditioning and Bluetooth-capable Pioneer audio. Thick
factory seats fly factory headrests between factory side panels. A
classy shifter sails a factory console on clean, fade-free carpet.
The driver spins a Billet Specialties Select wheel around metal
foot pedals and a modern, tilting column. And a restored trunk
provides easy access to a duo of JL Audio subwoofers.
With a beastly drivetrain, an excellent restoration and stunning
aesthetics, this super cool MoPar combines big swagger with big
appeal. It's fast. It's fun. And the addition of conveniences like
modern fuel injection and modern overdrive simply sweeten the deal.
Longing for a lights-out resto-mod that's built to please? Take a
long look at this impressive 1968 Charger!
