This 1973 Dodge Charger SE hardtop is finished in a red and blue STP-style #43 livery and has been fitted with a 440ci V8. Shifting is through a three-speed automatic transmission, and further equipment includes an aluminum radiator, a dual exhaust system, and blue-finished 15? steel wheels. On the inside, the front bucket seats are trimmed in blue vinyl and accompanied by a Rallye instrument cluster and woodgrain trim. The car was acquired by the seller in 2019, and service since 2021 is noted to have involved performing a tune-up as well as replacing the steering box and tie-rod ends. This Charger is now offered with a clean Texas title in the seller’s name.
The car has been repainted in a red and blue STP-style #43 livery that reflects the style used by driver Richard Petty during the 1973 NASCAR season. Further details include front windshield tabs, rear window braces, louvered quarter windows, and a rear spoiler. The seller notes rust on the body.
Blue-finished 15? steel wheels are mounted with 235/60 front and 255/60 rear BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires. Braking is handled by front discs and rear drums. The steering box and tie rods were reportedly replaced in 2021.
The front bucket seats and rear bench are trimmed in blue vinyl, which extends to the headliner as well as the dash and doors. Charger SE and Brougham badging is accompanied by woodgrain trim, and further details include a cabin heater, front lap belts, and black carpets.
A three-spoke steering wheel fronts a Rallye instrument cluster that features a 120-mph speedometer, a clock, and auxiliary gauges. The five-digit odometer indicates 99k miles, approximately 1k of which were added under current ownership. True mileage is unknown.
The factory 318ci V8 was replaced with a 440ci unit sourced from a 1969 model. An aluminum radiator is installed along with a dual exhaust system. A full tune-up was performed in 2021.
