There's a reason the Dodge Challenger had a starring role in many
movies over the years. This 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T 440 Tribute
is ready to take a starring role in your collection. Fully
repainted in this head-turning red, this '70 model, born a 340ci
car, has graduated to the big-block realm. With its heavy-duty
chassis, aggressively styled hood, rear spoiler, and graphics, it's
easy to see why this car is loved worldwide, on and off the
screen.
Inside, we find a sea of black vinyl that appears to be stock and
correct. A pair of bucket seats is separated by a full-length
center console that uses a small retaining wall of sorts to isolate
the shifter to the driver's side, ensuring no one can
unintentionally throw it out of gear while providing a clean and
compartmentalized feel to the passenger side. A three-spoke
power-assisted wheel sits in front of a column-mounted 8,000-rpm
Sunpro tach, with a traditional four-pod gauge cluster just beyond,
enshrouded in a woodgrain bezel. An upgraded JVC AM/FM/AUX/CD head
unit offers to handle soundtrack duties, but really, the only
sounds you're likely to focus on will be emanating from those
chrome exhaust tips.
Under the hood, we find the star of the show. A 440 cubic-inch V-8
engine outfitted with a Holley Sniper electronic fuel injection
setup, Hooker long tube headers, and a true dual exhaust. Power is
routed through a tried-and-true Tremec TKO five-speed manual
transmission before being sent to the rear end, which transfers
those ponies to the pavement via a set of 15-inch American Racing
Torq Thrust II wheels shod in BFGoodrich rubber.
