In the days of Hellcat Challengers, and companies that engineer
modern performance products for anything from a Civic to a
Cadillac, it's safe to say the pro-touring movement is alive and
well. And every so often we get a killer pro-tourer that instantly
draws a crowd, even in our showroom of exclusive, one-of-a-kind
muscle cars. This national award-winning Charger, which mixes 572
cubic inches of Indy Cylinder Head Hemi with custom underpinnings
and chill-inducing aesthetics, literally defines the phrase
"timeless show car". Looking for a lights-out classic that's poised
to cut conversations and strain necks? Look no further than this
stunning MoPar super star!
BODYWORK/TRIM
Created by MirandaBuilt of Delray Beach, Florida, this clean coupe,
appropriately nicknamed "Charged", scored First Place honors at the
2015 Detroit Autorama. While the car itself is incredibly
intricate, its 3,000-hour build originated through a simple idea
from simpler times: a local customer owned a 1970 Charger during
his youth and decided he wanted another one. Custom-mixed by
MirandaBuilt, the car's shell is PPG CX Charcoal that adds heavy
metal flake to base from Ford's F150 Harley-Davidson line. And
naturally, that pigment looks right at home under Matte Black war
paint and a Light Bronze pin stripe. At the front of the 2-stage, a
custom grille cages bright headlights behind clear parking lamps
and a shortened, tucked and smoothed bumper. Above that grille, a
sculpted hood leads the eye to fresh glass that's cased in painted
stainless trim. At the sides of that bonnet, a faceted profile
anchors a billet fuel filler and aftermarket door handles between
shaved mirrors, filled marker lamps and aggressive, flush-fit
exhaust. And at the back of that profile, a custom valance centers
a custom, one-piece taillight above a custom roll pan and a second
shortened, tucked and smoothed bumper.
ENGINE
Check this MoPar's hand-fabricated engine bay and you'll find 572
cubic inches of Race Legend Hemi that, thanks to the power-hungry
pros at Indy Cylinder Head, twists 667 horsepower into 735 lb./ft.
of torque. At the front of the CNC-prepped Mega Block, twin Viper
throttle bodies force air through a sheetmetal intake that was
supplied by Hogan's Racing Manifolds. That plane feeds CNC-prepped
heads, which stack Comp roller lifters and Indy roller rockers
under fabricated valve covers. At the front of those heads, a hot
MSD distributor sequences fire through pliable MSD plug wires. At
the front of those wires, a Billet Specialties Tru Trac serpentine
drive spins a modern AC compressor opposite a modern alternator.
Exhaust roars through custom, long-tube headers. And details like a
deep-sump oil pan, a proven Wilwood master cylinder, snazzy Fesler
hinges and FAST EZ EFI Engine Management cement this car's status
as a well-blended piece of timeless mechanical art.
DRIVETRAIN/SUSPENSION
It doesn't take a promotional video from AccuAir
https://youtu.be/8iZTcOuDMAU for enthusiasts to notice this
Charger's killer stance. That e-Level Air Management System is
wired through a custom suspension that employs RideTech ShockWave
bags. Behind the Hemi, a Powertrain Control Solution TCM-2000
controller jolts a Rossler 4L80E 4-speed, which makes excellent use
of a Reid bellhousing and J.W. Performance flexplate. Behind that
gearbox, an 8.75-inch MoPar axle spins a Truetrac differential.
Power rack-and-pinion steering leads a full complement of disc
brakes, which mix Light Bronze calipers with drilled and slotted
rotors. Exhaust rolls from the aforementioned headers in to custom,
3-inch pipes that are tailored to Borla ProXS mufflers. And at the
corners of the car, ceramic-cleared Schott F-10s spin 245/35ZR20
Pirelli P Zeros in front of 335/25ZR22 Pirelli Scorpion Zeros.
INTERIOR
Inside this awesome Dodge, a custom cockpit weaves modern
convenience in to timeless aesthetics. Plush bucket seats anchor
four occupants on Light Bronze stitching. In front of those
thrones, an aluminum-trimmed dash hangs a full suite of Auto Meter
Cobalt telemetry above Vintage Air Gen IV climate control and
Alpine touchscreen audio that's strung between JL speakers, dual
amplifiers and a quality Audison processor. At the bottom of that
ledge, a "Charged" branded console centers a Shiftworks bump
shifter behind INFINITYWIRE inMOTION ignition that's wired to
INFINITYWIRE inRESERVE security. And in front of the driver, a tilt
steering column bridges the gap between billet foot pedals and a
stylish Billet Specialties wheel.
