In 2009, Dodge offered a "Challenger R/T Classic" model to celebrate the re-release of their iconic musclecar. The R/T Classic included 20" chrome retro-style wheels, a retro R/T Side Stripe, retro Script badging, and a limited number were available in B5 Blue, just like they were in 1970. Dodge manufactured a total of 31,500 Challengers in 2009 before Chrysler halted production due to the economy. Only 759 Challengers were produced in B5 Blue that year, and only 523 of those were the R/T Classic. That's just 1.66% of production. After their financing was secured and their marriage to Fiat was arranged, a few more Challengers may have rolled off the line, but it is believed that none of these were B5 Blue as their production run had already ended. Of the 523 B5 Blue R/T Classics produced, 244 came with manual transmissions (this one) and 279 came with automatics. These cars aren't numbered like Dodge's other "Limited Edition" cars such as the Charger Daytona (of which thousands are produced). These are "Sleeper Collectibles". Very limited production insures long-term desirability, and this is a 1-in-244 car. And it's highly-optioned to boot. There's even an "Easter Egg" in the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) in the form of a resettable 0-60 MPH timer.
The standard features on this R/T Classic are:
In addition, this car was manufactured with the following options:
B5 Blue Pearl Coat Exterior Paint ($225)
Customer Preferred Package 27M ($3,460)
Interior Appearance Group by MOPAR $565Premium Floor Mats with Logo by MOPAR Car Cover by MOPAR Bright door sill guards by MOPAR
Electronic Convenience Group ($1,260)
6-Speed manual transmission ($995) Track Pak 3.73 Axle Ratio Anti-spin differential rear axle Bright accelerator, brake and clutch pedals Hill start assist
AM/FM/CD/DVD/HDD/MP3 ($535)
Compact spare tire ($100)
Low-mileage, and the best upgrades are included on this car. The Challenger has a SMS 296 Supercharger that was installed at Hennessey in February of 2010. The front license plate holes are untapped. The windows aren't even tinted. The oil has been changed every 3000 miles.
Since purchased, this car has been garage kept under the original car cover. It has only ever been hand-washed, top-to-bottom, since I've owned it. I purchased this car "new" with 3 miles on it. 2000 miles are break-in highway from dealership to my house, to Hennessey and back for the supercharger installation.
A 90 milimeter throttle body and Hop Not kit were installed in 2010. The SMS 296 supercharger cost $7,500 in 2009 and the installation was another $3,169. I added the 85 mm pulley ($600) to get the boost to over 6 psi. The new dyno run showed 502 rear rear horse power vs the 456 from Hennesey with just the supercharger back in February 2010. Please feel to email with any questions you have.
Thanks, Chris |

2019 Ram 1500 features an updated Ram's head badge
Fri, Jan 19 2018Full-size truck owners love to make a statement. That's how we've arrived at the mile-high grilles, acres of chrome and belt buckle-esque badging you'll find on trucks like the Chevy Silverado, Ford F-150 and Nissan Titan. The new 2019 Ram 1500 made its debut this week at the 2018 Detroit Auto Show. While the sheetmetal and grille are the most obvious visual changes, the ram's head badge quietly got a modern redesign. At first glance, it appears to be the same badge that's graced Dodge and Ram vehicles for decades. Look closely and you'll see that this new one is all squared off, ditching all the curves for straight edges. It looks chiseled rather than carved and is a far cry from the detailed Ram's head that made a debut back in 1981. It also incorporates the new "RAM" lettering that replaced the crosshair in the truck's grille. View 4 Photos Little things like this do a lot to keep a vehicle fresh. Dodge seems to be the only automaker capable of changing logos anymore. Ford and Chevy are stuck with the blue oval and bowtie, so why not take advantage of a newer nameplate?

This 93-car Iowa auction is like a Big 3 classic muscle museum
Tue, Aug 27 2019Bill "Coyote" Johnson has been buying cars since high school and has amassed a collection totaling 113 vehicles, according to NBC 6 News. But time has changed his motivations and priorities, and he's decided to auction 93 of those cars, many of which are classic muscle from Ford, Chevrolet, Dodge, Plymouth and Pontiac. The megasale will take place Sept. 14, 2019, in Red Oak, Iowa, at the Montgomery County Fairgrounds. A 1969 Plymouth Road Runner infected Coyote with a love for Detroit muscle when he was just a teenager, and his desire quickly turned into an obsession. He's spent the past 40 years finding, buying and working on a variety of makes and models. Unlike some collectors, Coyote didn't discriminate against certain brands and has rides from each of the Big 3 automakers. Included in the auction are Camaros, Satellites, Super Bees, Chargers, Challengers, Barracudas, Coronets, GTOs, Mustangs, Cutlasses and others. Possibly the most intriguing aspect of the auction is that all of these cars will be sold as-is with no reserve. Many of them will need work, depending on quality standards, but this seems like a golden opportunity to find a classic car without leaving a bank account in shambles. The auctions are open for bidding online now, and the full auction will take place on September 14. Check out the full listings and bid at VanDerBrink Auctions.
These Canadians somehow forgot how to drive in snow
Tue, Dec 6 2016Montreal drivers experienced a slow-motion pileup on their streets this weeks thanks to the first snow fall of the season. According to the CBC, slippery conditions caused a small pileup involving cars, buses and even a street clearing vehicle. Onlookers in neighboring office buildings watched as vehicle after vehicle slid down Cote du Beaver Hall and crashed into the scrum of waiting cars. First there was a city bus, then a white Ford F-150 work truck loaded down with ladders, then another city bus came along and sandwiched the poor F-150. A Montreal Police Charger then came down the hill backwards, hit the bus in a slow, sad crash before it was crashed into by an out of control plow truck. Since its posting yesterday, the video of the crash has gone viral. Various other vehicles–a green-topped Scion delivery truck and a couple workaday sedans–were lucky enough to escape the pileup, but still suffered through a white-knuckled slippery descent down the hill. Colin Creado, who works nearby the crash site, told the CBC although it was pretty slippery, he was surprised at all the carnage since the storm was forecast well in advance. "You would have thought ... they would have salted the area or at least cordoned it off, because that road is pretty steep," he told the station.
