Vehicle Description
This 1966 Dodge Charger Sport Coupe is a fire-breathing muscle car
legend reborn. Rosso Red paint with pearl accents coats its
fastback body, creating a striking visual impact. The aggressive
stance is amplified by 18-inch Ridler wheels up front and massive
20-inch Ridlers in the rear, wrapped in sticky rubber. A fiberglass
Hemi scoop adorns the hood, hinting at the power lurking within.
The car's sleek silhouette is further enhanced by black-painted
trim and sequential rear turn signals, setting it apart from
ordinary muscle cars of its era.
Black vinyl bucket seats dominate the interior, featuring the
unique Charger Package with rear flip buckets and a full-length
console. The cabin exudes a performance-oriented atmosphere with
three aftermarket gauges monitoring oil pressure, voltage, and
coolant temperature. Illuminated gauge lighting adds a modern touch
to the classic design. Sound deadening material ensures a
comfortable ride, while the original AM radio provides
period-correct entertainment. The suede headliner and matching
center console cushion and visors complete the premium feel of this
meticulously crafted interior.
Powering this Charger is a beastly 440 cubic inch V8, significantly
upgraded from its original 361. The engine bay is a showcase of
performance parts, including Keith Black full-flow pistons, 440
H-beam rods, and a Comp Cams double roller camshaft. Aluminum
cylinder heads from 440 Source and an Edelbrock Performer RPM
intake manifold topped with a Street Demon 750 CFM carburetor
ensure optimal airflow. The powerplant is kept cool by an aluminum
radiator with both mechanical and electric fans. A 727 TorqueFlite
automatic transmission with a Hughes 1800 stall converter
efficiently transfers power to the 8 3/4-inch rear end, equipped
with 3.23 gears. The chassis has been upgraded with QA1 tubular
upper arms in the front, new KYB shocks all around, and CCP front
power disc brakes for improved handling and stopping power.
