Year:1970
Mileage:6
Location:
New Baltimore, Michigan, United States
|
Up for auction is one of the most nicely restored 1970 Dodge
Challenger R/T convertibles in existence. It
was restored professionally to factory specs.
The way you see it is the way it rolled off the assembly line back in
January 1970. It has its numbers
matching 383 engine which was restored to factory specs and ran on a dyno
before installed. The transmission was completely
torn down, detailed and completely rebuilt to factory specs. The 8 3/4 rear end was also torn down and
rebuilt. The housing was chemically
dipped to remove all of the junk in the housing. The center section was cleaned, detailed and completely
rebuilt with new clutches and bearings. The interior has been completely restored. The seat frames were media blasted and
painted. Then new seat foams and covers
were installed. The gauge cluster was completely
restored by Auto Instruments. The door
and rear interior panels were recovered by Just Dashes as well as the dash
pad. The heater control panel is new so
it has the correct chrome detail vs. the silver paint pen most use. The radio is a new reproduction that looks
original on the outside (also with the correct chrome detail) but is new on the
inside with IPOD and blue tooth capabilities.
All of the seat belts are new as well as the correct consol. The dash frame and steering column were
painted with NOS correct suede paint. All of the convertible top components are new including:
power top pump, both cylinders, and all of the plastic lines. Top was professionally installed and looks
great. The frame was media blasted and
repainted the correct shade of satin black.
Correct new satin chrome latched and receivers were installed. The front suspension was completely detailed using cosmoline
on the upper and lower control arms. All
front suspension parts were detailed and coated with RPM (rust preventative
magic sold by ECS Automotive). The exhaust was purchased from Accurate Exhaust. It is one step louder than factory and has a
perfect tone for a convertible. The engine compartment is completely detailed with the
correct radiator restored by Ray’s Radiator and a date coded carbureted restored
by Scott Smith (Harms Auto). I can write a book on this car. To sum it up everything on this car was
touched CORRECTLY. What needed to be
plated was plated correctly, not sprayed with metal color aerosol paint cans. We only use the best vendors on our restorations. This car was not built with the intensions of
selling it. This is an investment piece
that just happens to be but on the market for personal reasons. This is not a car that has been put back
together with old repainted cleaned up parts.
Everything on this car was restored to new condition or replaced with
new quality reproduction parts. We only restore Mopar’s.
It is what we specialize in and all we do. This is a gorgeous car and we guarantee you
will be happy with it. You can see 271
pictures of this Challenger on our site afterhoursrestorations.com. We are only interested in positive transactions. If for any reason you are not happy with this
car at time of pick up the sale will be void and all funds will be returned no
questions asked. Feel free to have the car inspected. The car is on a platform hoist so it can be
inspected front to back, inside and out. Seller reserves the right to end auction early because car is for sale locally. Please ask questions. 271 pictures of this Challenger can be seen on our web site www.afterhoursrestorations.com.

2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat [w/videos]
Tue, 22 Jul 2014Darrell Waltrip once said, "If the lion didn't bite the tamer every once in a while, it wouldn't be exciting." The sentiment behind that aphorism is causing my adrenal gland to wake up as Dodge and SRT drivers and engineers - somber-faced to a man - give me the track talk that will precede my driving the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT on the circuit at Portland International Raceway. PIR might not be Daytona, and the 707-horsepower Challenger Hellcat might seem tame to a legend like ol' Jaws, but there's a not-small part of me that's thinking about how hard Dodge's fire-breathing kitty might bite.
Just a few hours previous, I'd gotten behind the wheel of the Hellcat for the first time, letting its hyperbole-spitting, supercharged V8 Hemi pull me yieldingly through Portland's morning commuter traffic. Lulled into a cocky certainty by the Challenger's good manners at low speed, I drove the throttle just a hair too deep, too fast when I ran on to the highway ramp. For just an instant the rear tires were utterly drenched in torque, and the back end of the big Dodge loosened up like a drift car on a wet track. Throttle steer lives at the fleeting whim of your right foot in this car.
It was no big thing to lay off the gas and pull the Hellcat back in line as I entered the highway, but the incident did get me to thinking: What will this car do to me on a road course?
Amazon opens contest for The Grand Tour tickets in the US
Thu, Jul 7 2016British enthusiasts already had the opportunity to win tickets to the first taping of The Grand Tour, and now Amazon has opened up a similar chance for customers in the US. In celebration of Prime Day, which starts today, customers in the US can enter The Grand Tour Prime Day Prize Draw. The prize includes travel, $200 to spend, accommodation, and a meet and greet with Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May. Customers that are interested fulfilling a childhood dream should visit Amazon's website and fill out the entry form soon as the draw closes on July 12. The Grand Tour will launch this fall as an exclusive for Amazon Prime members with the exact city locations for studio records set to be revealed later this summer. Amazon, however, did reveal that the trio will host shows in the UK, US, and Germany. So there's no need to get too upset if you don't win the draw. With Top Gear getting a major shakeup with the departure of Chris Evans, we're itching to see Clarkson, Hammond, and May behind the wheel of cars again. The trio, it seems, is also excited to get the new show rolling as Clarkson posted a drifty video on his Facebook page. The trio are currently in Italy filming a comparison between an Aston Martin DB11, a Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, and Rolls-Royce Dawn. The five-second clip has the Challenger Hellcat and DB11 drifting head-on into the camera crew, which is behind the wheel of an Alfa Romeo.

Roadkill pits every project car against each other
Sat, 22 Feb 2014The guys behind Motor Trend's monthly Roadkill series have collected nine of their favorite project cars from their videos and pitted them against each other in a battle royale to determine a winner. It's 44 minutes long, but it's completely worth the investment of time.
The cars run the gamut from a 1973 Chevrolet Ramp Truck, a 1975 AMC Pacer and a legitimately impressive 1967 Chevy Camaro, and they are pitted against each other to see which is the fastest around an autocross course. The drivers include Roadkill's two hosts and Motor Trend's Johnny Lieberman and Carlos Lago. It's reminiscent of the best episodes of Top Gear and worth a watch.
So it's the weekend - the perfect time to relax. Grab your preferred beverage, get comfortable and enjoy 44 minutes of some seriously ratty but utterly cool project cars as they are throttled within an inch of their lives (or past it). Scroll down to check out the video.
