This third generation Dodge Charger will impress the Classic Car connoisseur’s to the avid collector.  It is in amazing condition, almost as though we are stepping back in time and looking through a window, as this Charger sits on the Dodge Dealers showroom floor in 1973. 


There is something inherently cool about a Mopar that has remained as timeless as this vehicle has.  This B Body Mopar has never been hacked up, modified, driven hard, or cheaply restored.  I simply can say, I rarely ever see a unrestored Mopar of this caliber and that truly is a huge statement.  This Charger would be the perfect platform to turn into a pro-touring hot rod since its body and floors are completely solid and rust free or leave it the way it is, drive it and enjoy it or It's a perfect opportunity for a Dodge dealer to put it on the showroom for that throwback look.


Most of these highly sought after Mopars have been scooped up over the years with very few retaining the originality and documentation that this example does.


From the Family that has owned this car since new:


“1973 Dodge Charger 318... This car has been in one family since new It is an original, unrestored, numbers matching magnificently preserved '73 Charger, with 43,000 actual miles. The original spare is still placed with the original jack and equipment in the trunk and  four all new radials on the ground. It drives, rides, cools and heats as well, it seems as it did new. This is a true survivor!”


For 1973, the Chargers received vertically slatted taillights and new grills and the hideaway headlights were no longer available.  This 3rd generation Charger is easily recognizable with its exaggerated coke bottle shape and swoops throughout its body-lines.


The exterior of this car needs no excuses from its excellent shine and finish to its vinyl top and trim work.  The interior is just a breathtaking as the exterior and will challenge you to imagine if this car ever was driven.  The dash and gauges are picture perfect.  This style Mopar allows for all the comforts of a modern ride with COLD air conditioning, a Torqueflite automatic transmission and 318 V8 engine.  


This vehicle fills the gap of acquiring a collector vehicle that will continue to appreciate in value and will also retain its original aesthetics.  Because remember vintage cars can only be original once and it is highly feasible that years from now when many have been modified or cloned that the originals will be the vehicles that will appreciate in valuable.  We are already starting to this with the original Chevy and Fords of the 30's.   This Mopar will be a great addition to anyones collection.

2019 Tokyo Auto Salon features one of the coolest auctions we've seen

Thu, Jan 3 2019

In just over a week, the Tokyo Auto Salon will host one of the coolest auctions we've seen in years. Jalopnik spotted BH Auction's listings, and it's a cornucopia of hot machinery you won't typically find at American auctions like Gooding & Company or Barrett Jackson. While Japanese cars make up most of the listings, Ferrari, Porsche, BMW and even Dodge all have at least one car going up for auction. We won't include everything here, but you can check out the full list on BH Auction's website. There are 50 lots at the auction, including nine Nissan Skylines, nine Ferraris and two Porsche Carrera GTs. Some of our other favorites include a Honda S800 coupe, a Toyota Miniace truck, a Mitsubishi Willys Jeep and a 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300 SL gullwing with the V8 from a W124 Mercedes-Benz E60 AMG that's estimated to sell for between $1.25 million and $1.5 million.

Mopar '15 performance kit now available for Dodge Charger R/T

Tue, Jun 9 2015

Dodge is releasing a new Mopar performance kit for the 2015 Charger R/T sedan, offering up just 50 examples of the dealer-installed upgrade package. Only a select few dealers will sell the kit, and they'll do so at a price of $3,550. As per usual, the Mopar kit makes both performance and aesthetic changes. For the 5.7-liter Hemi V8, upgrades include the Stage 1 Scat Pack kit, which adds a cat-back exhaust and cold-air intake, good for 18 additional horsepower and 18 more pound-feet of torque. There's also a new strut tower brace and a "premium fuel powertrain control module." Aesthetic changes are remarkably simple, with matte black body-side decals being the only notable addition to the exterior. In the cabin, there's a serialized dash plaque and new door sill plates. This is the sixth Mopar special edition since 2009. If you wish to join this fairly exclusive fraternity of Dodge owners, dealers are currently accepting orders, with deliveries slated to start later this month. Scroll down for the official press release from Dodge.

Junkyard 1983 Dodge Rampage has Franco-American roots

Mon, Jun 20 2016

Lee Iacocca and the K-Cars get most of the credit for saving Chrysler after the company's 1979 bailout by the US government, but the success of the Simca-derived Omnirizon platform was a large, if overlooked, component of Chrysler's early-1980s resurgence. The Dodge Omni and Plymouth Horizon were sold in the United States for the 1978 through 1990 model years, and variants included the 1983-1987 Dodge Charger and the Rampage, this well-worn example of which I spotted in a Denver self-service wrecking yard last week. The early Omnirizons came with a Volkswagen-sourced 1.7-liter engine, but all of the Rampage pickups (and their near-identical Plymouth Scamp siblings) came from the factory with a 2.2-liter K-Car engine making 96 horses. This truck has a 4-speed manual transmission, which would have made it reasonably quick by Malaise Era standards. This one had plenty of body filler and rust, even before the crash that sent it on that final tow-truck ride to this place, so it wouldn't have been worth restoring. Still, we can hope that some of its parts will live on in other L-body trucks.
