1970 dodge challenger convertible

Always a California car with the original blue plates. It was restored over a two year period in 2010/2011. Still maintains the original colors fe5 with white interior and white power top. Originally a 318, 4 speed. Not an rt. It now has a built 426 hemi with period dual carter carbs. Not a crate motor. 18 spline Hemi 4 speed and dana 60 rear end. power brakes with front discs. Power steering. Power top. Shaker hood. 15” wheels 235’s on the front. 245’s on the back. Still has the original jack and space saver in the trunk. Both the front and rear have sway bars and stock shocks.

The body work was done by a custom car body shop in ventura, ca. metal work that was done: lower rear quarters. Cowl. Firewall. New radiator mount for 22” radiator. New front and rear valances. All the metal was taken down to bare metal. New epoxy primer and of course paint. Looks pretty nice all the way around. A couple little pebble scratches under the fender and the top of the rear fender has a scratch. The underside has no undercoating and is as clean as the top side. Whatever could not be painted was clear coated or powder coated. The top moves up and down nicely but is a little slow coming back up. All the padding is installed correctly and when it is down I have a nice boot that fits snug and tight. the convertible belt is original and is beautiful. as well as all the bright work.

Interior is legendary. White. Black carpet. Rim blow steering wheel. Original am radio. Dash and convertible frame was all powder coated. All assemblies were made with stainless screws wherever possible. Rally dash was rebuilt by redline. Seatbelts are original with the date tags still visible. The doors open and close well. And everything lines up.

I have the original fender tag, the build sheet and I have all the engine specs. if your interested inj the specs let me know and i'll send them to you.

It has about 1000 miles since being restored. I had the car gone over by a mechanic that specializes in these types of cars.

This ride is fast. Shifts great. Runs down the road straight and is a blast to drive. Its not all that loud because when we built it we used the stock exhaust system. In fact I tried to keep everything just the way it would have been if you bought it off the show room floor. none the less it still rumbles nicely. it's a great ride and it gets a lot of looks.

Redonkulous Dodge Charger is ridin' high

Wed, 18 Sep 2013

We're a bit hazy on the styling of this particular donk, which was recently spotted hashing about by HotCarsTV at the Southern Heritage Classic Car show in Memphis. Sporting a dope paint job and some wheels that make a blunt statement about what the driver enjoys, it's a unique take on the popular customizing trend.
The owner may be kiefing it real with the theme on this Dodge Charger, but when your car looks like this, it's easy to weed out from the crowd. Chronic police stops must also make it a pain to drive on a regular basis, though. Even with the big wheels, we bet the driver still finds time to light 'em up. Take a look down below for a brief video of this outrageous mean green machine on the road.

Dodge and SRT Motorsports announced that the Dodge Dart will be returning for its sophomore season of the Global Rallycross Championship with a two-car team fielded by Pastrana Racing. Travis Pastrana drove his GRC Dart to victory lane in the fourth race of the car's inaugural season, and his race team is looking for even more success with the addition of off-road racer Bryce Menzies behind the wheel of the second car.
The 2013 GRC season kicks off on April 21 in Brazil with plenty of dirt-spewing, ramp-jumping action. Scroll down for a video from the cars' main sponsor, Red Bull, and a press release from Chrysler.

Junkyard Gem: 1978 Dodge Tradesman Custom Van

Fri, Nov 4 2016

The custom-van craze was huge in California, back in the 1970s, and plenty of folks who would never have considered getting zonked on Acapulco Gold while listening to Elephant's Memory ended up buying Econolines and Beauvilles and Tradesmen with shag carpeting, bubble windows, and wild graphics. In fact, van buyers could get that stuff right from the factory. Most of those vans are gone now, but I found this used-up '78 Dodge in a self-service wrecking yard in California's Central Valley. Owners of custom vans felt strongly about their rides back in the Malaise Era. This one has the look of a vehicle that was used for beer-and-burned-meat-heavy tailgate parties at Oakland Raiders games. Such service is rough on a van. Try to picture this interior when it was new and plush, not the way it looks now. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
