Authentic R/T! Original trim tag that options out just the way you see the car today. Decked out with all the striping and no vinyl top, sure looks good to me. Aside from that it's a #'s matching car, but the real cherry on top, or the bottom in this case, is the high performance axle package that includes a Sure Grip rear end and 3.91 gears that will launch you at the green light! That package also comes with heavy duty cooling, and the Hemi suspension, holding true to its road and track (R/T) denomination. If all this sounds appealing to you, you could be Dodge material!

EXTERIOR: The panels are all well aligned, square and flush with great gaps. The doors close easily with minimal effort. Looking down the side of the arrow straight body you will see smooth contours and crisp lines. The Dark Metallic Green paint is an extremely rich color that is very nostalgic also. It is nicely laid out with a smooth and shiny finish. It has dual sport mirrors that are painted body color as well. This one's exceptionally sharp without a vinyl top, plus the white longitudinal stripes and the black patch on the hood bulge. All the chrome has a glorious shine. The front grille, headlights, and taillights are in fantastic condition. It's rolling on a set of 15" Rallye wheels that are wrapped in Firestone Destination radial tires.

INTERIOR: The jambs are nicely painted body color and the weatherstrips are in great shape. The door panels and side panels are in excellent condition. It is equipped with the Rallye dash which includes a full set of gauges including a tachometer. It has a good looking dash pad with no cracks or splits. A modern digital stereo fits in the factory hole. There is a USB port in the glove box where you can plug in a memory stick for music, and the light works too. The carpet looks great and fits well. It has a really nice center console plus the automatic slap stick shifter. The matching seats have been reupholstered with belts front and back. The headliner has been redone and the dome light is working. The sun visors and mirror are also in very good shape. The Rallye wheel looks fantastic and has a great feel.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Under the hood is the original VIN number matching 383 Magnum engine making 335 horsepower. The casting codes are correct and the actual VIN is stamped down by the oil pan. Appears very stock looking with the correct manifolds, valve covers, and dual snorkel air cleaner etc. Upgraded Holley carburetor with an electric choke, and an aftermarket electronic ignition. The squirters and horns are hooked up. The alternator, belts, and hoses were all replaced. It also has a Chrysler radiator, power steering and power brakes. The hidden VIN on the radiator core support matches. The battery is properly secured. The underside of the hood, hinges, firewall, and fender wells are all neatly painted. The original trim tag is still in place.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The underside of the trunk lid and jamb are nicely painted body color. A reproduction jack sticker was added and the weatherstrip was replaced. This car does have the lamp group which includes a trunk light that is working. Inside is a spare tire, jack assembly, lug wrench, and trunk mat. Under the mat is all solid metal that was painted like the exterior.

UNDERSIDE: Underneath is cleaned up very well. The floors appear to be rock solid original metal. This car was ordered with the optional Hemi ride and handling package. Steering and suspension are both in good condition with coilover shocks out back. Also has a custom stainless steel dual exhaust system with X-Pipe and MagnaFlow mufflers. The correct square tips are going out through the valance. The gas tank and straps were also replaced. This car came with optional power disc brakes up front, drum in back and the e-brake assembly is hooked up. Looking up at the #'s matching engine is super clean with a high torque starter. The VIN number is stamped down by the oil pan. It also has the correct 727 Torqueflite automatic transmission. Out back is the optional 3.91 Sure Grip high performance axle, that will snap some necks off the line.

SERVICE: We take pride in our cars and reputation. Therefore, we built a 2 million dollar, 10,000 square ft service center, and hired a team of technicians to work it. This is so we can sell you the best cars within reason.

Great car, original R/T with the VIN #'s matching engine and a nice list of options! Y'all drive careful now, ya hear!
