Vehicle Description
A rare piece of Mopar muscle history exists in this Spitfire Orange
1979 Dodge Aspen R/T - one of fewer than 400 produced with the
factory 360 V8 engine. Bold silver stripes add visual punch to its
crisp, angular body lines, creating an unmistakable performance
aesthetic that defined late-70s American muscle. The stylish coupe
silhouette sits perfectly proportioned on 14" wheels wrapped in
225/70R14 tires that complete its aggressive stance. Chrome and
brightwork shine brilliantly against the vivid orange paint, while
the glass and seals present exceptionally well on this meticulously
maintained muscle car.
Black vinyl bucket seats anchor the all-business interior of this
performance-oriented cabin. The dashboard presents with excellent
clarity throughout all gauges, providing critical information at a
glance. A console-mounted shifter sits within easy reach, while the
AM/FM radio with 8-track player supplies the soundtrack for your
drive. Door panels remain in excellent condition, complementing the
well-preserved headliner and clean carpeting. Power steering
provides effortless control, and the entire cabin maintains a level
of preservation that's impressive for a vehicle of this
vintage.
The potent 360 cubic inch V8 engine was recently removed, repainted
and detailed to show-quality standards. Performance upgrades
include a roller cam, roller lifters, and 202 valves for improved
breathing and power delivery. The reliable A727 Torqueflite
three-speed automatic transmission handles shifting duties with
precision. Handling benefits from the factory torsion bar front
suspension and leaf spring rear setup, while power disc brakes up
front provide ample stopping capability. An aftermarket exhaust
system with X-pipe delivers an appropriately aggressive exhaust
note.
