Vehicle Description
Truly one of those, you can't build it for what you can buy it for
cars. This iconic Mopar was treated to her body modifications
first. This included at the time headlights, tail lights, and door
mirrors to be grafted into the 1970 Challenger body from a modern
Challenger. The door handles have been shaved, and electric door
poppers open the doors via a programmed key fob. The car was
showcased at SEMA for it's body modifications. After the car
returned home from the show, the owner enjoyed and drove the car
with the body modifications complete. He then quickly realized,
when a car looks this good, it needs to have the power to back up
those looks! The car was sent to esteemed Cleveland Power &
Performance in Ohio for its fabrication and mechanical upgrades.
The original driveline at the time was removed, and the interior of
the car was stripped down to a bone. The entire Challenger was
professionally wired. All four door glasses were treated to a power
window conversion, and the gaps were then adjusted for the fit you
see now on the Challenger. The tunnel was professionally modified
to fit the modern Hemi Nag-1 5 speed auto transmission. The seat
tracks of the modern Challenger were modified, and the floor sunk
to allow more headroom for the modern Challenger seats. The
interior floor then had sound deadener added before the carpet was
installed. The Challenger was prepped, and professionally painted
with a rubberized undercoating to help protect against heat, help
reduce road noise, and keep the underside protected against rock
chips. Under the hood, a modern 6.4 SRT-8 Hemi was installed. The
driveline has a documented 13,000 miles on the engine and
transmission. New aftermarket transmission cooler and a new
aftermarket power steering cooler was added as well. New aluminum
radiator to keep the engine cool, and vintage air inside the cabin
to keep the occupants cool. TTI headers were professionally
modified and TIG welded for proper clearance. A custom stainless
304 exhaust was fabricated with Kooks mufflers handling the sound.
A new carbon fiber driveshaft transfers the power to the rear axle.
Stainless steel fuel tank, with new stainless steel fuel and new
brake lines were custom bent and routed on the underside. Wilwood
brakes are neatly tucked behind 2 piece aluminum Forgiato 22" rims.
Adjustable Ridetech coil overs handle stance and performance at
each corner. Inside the Challenger, a custom ordered and made
Dakota Digital gauge monitors speed and RPM's.. The gauge also can
be color adjusted by the operator. Kenwood head unit, JL speakers
throughout, highlighted by 4 JL subwoofers in the parcel shelf,
powered by 3 JL amps in the trunk. Dyno tuned, and over 1,900
test/enjoyment miles since the mechanical build was completed. This
totally one of a kind Challenger is ready for it's next home.
Remember any reputable shop is booked out over a year plus. When
you add the cost of body work, paint materials,
alllllllllllllllllll of the aftermarket parts, the 6.4 HEMI
driveline, and the labor to properly install allllllllllllll of
those aftermarket parts, do not hesitate on this black beauty. You
will be kicking yourself while your Mopar is at the shop for 2 plus
years getting built for way more money than you can purchase this
Challenger for. Please check our website www.maxmotive.com for more
