About this vehicle
1970 Dodge Challenger T/A Never restored. I am the 2nd registered owner and 3rd actual owner. 72k original mile car. Purchased new at Claude Short Dodge in Santa Monica, CA. Still retains its original license plate and frame. The only rust is the center of the trunk floor. No other rust or corrosion anywhere on the car. Original Hood. The paint has wear and dings as can be seen in the pictures but still displays very well for an original car. The car was in a fender bender in 1973 and the drivers side quarter panel was repaired by the dealer. No other previous damage I am aware of.Seller's Notes
