1970 Dodge Challenger on 2040-cars
Pasadena, California, United States
ANY QUESTIONS JUST EMAIL ME: rhiannonmccathran@juno.com .
I have for sale my 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T with a numbers matching 440 4bbl engine, torqueflite transmission,
factory air conditioning, and power steering, bucket seats, and slap-stick shifter. I have converted the original 4
wheel drum brakes to front wheel disc brakes. (I still have the original drums).
The car was originally sold by my grandfather who owned A Chrysler Dealership in Madera, CA. It was later traded in
in 1975 and has been in my family ever since. My uncle did a restoration to the car in 1989. The car runs good,
everything on it works. This is a Central Valley car that has spent the last 25 years indoors and is rust free. It
is ready as a driver right now. I also have it listed on Craigslist. Thanks for looking!
Added: 12/1/2015. Here is more detail that I responded to one member's question with. I thought I would include it.
It is also shown below as well.
*Hello, everything works on the car except for the trip meter. I would consider the condition of the car as "A
Driver". However, it is complete and numbers matching and everything works. It had a period restoration back in
1988. At that time it received a reproduction interior kit with seat covers, carpet and dash pad. The gauges are
perfect, the dash pad is perfect, the radio is perfect and works, the seats and seat covers are perfect, the
windshield is perfect, the side glass is slightly scratched by the window rubber but do work, all the glass is the
original glass, the console is good, the wood decal on the console is bubbled, the seat backs and door panels have
scratches in the plastic that were then repainted in 1988. The carpet is sound but does exhibit some fading and
discoloration. The headliner is perfect and all the interior trim and metal is perfect and not pitted. The steering
wheel is not cracked and is complete. The steering wheel does have some discoloration on the spokes but the rubber
is not brittle. As far as the exterior: The doors are original metal and there is no rust, the hood, front fenders,
rear quarters, deck lid and bumpers are all original to the car and have no rust or damage. The trunk has no rust
and had a new trunk pan installed in 1988. The tires where new in 2010 and have seen less than 200 miles. The paint
is in good condition. There is no fading, peeling, bubbling, or scratches. It is glossy and complete. I do feel
like it could use a good wet sanding and polish as I believe it got a clear coat with the repaint in 1988 and seems
to be a little thick. All the exterior trim is present and in good condition. The engine was overhauled in 1988
along with the original transmission. In 2010 I added front wheel disc brakes. The car has seen less than 200 miles
since 2010. It has always been a California car and mostly stored inside. Please let me know if you have any other
questions.

Dodge Hellcat orders on hold due to 'unprecedented demand'
Sun, Mar 15 2015Want to get your hands on a 707-horsepower Dodge Challenger or Charger Hellcat to call your very own? We don't blame you, and you're not alone. According to Motor Authority and confirmed by a spokesperson from Chrysler, Dodge has gotten so many orders for its stable of Hellcats that it simply cannot keep up with demand: "Due to unprecedented demand for the 2015 Dodge Charger and Challenger SRT Hellcats, we are temporarily restricting orders while we validate current orders that are in the system." Put another way, if you're waiting for a Hellcat, your wait is likely to be a lot longer than you'd like. We've reached out to Chrysler to find out how long it might take for a new customer to get a new Hellcat, and we'll update if and when we hear back.

2015 Dodge Challenger crash test results slip from last year's model
Mon, Dec 22 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has released the results of its latest round of crash testing, announcing that the 2015 Dodge Challenger has netted a five-star overall crash rating. Of course, Chrysler won't want us to tell you this, but that NHTSA overall rating is not the whole story here. As The Car Connection so astutely points out, five-star rating aside, the refreshed 2015 Challenger actually performed worse than when it was tested back in 2013. The V6-powered SXT model tested by NHTSA in this latest round of testing was only able to record a four-star rating in its frontal crash test, while it nailed a five-star rating in the side-impact test. The 2013 Challenger managed a five-star rating in the frontal test. Of course, while this rating is a sign of overall good news for Challenger fans, the car, as TCC argues, has yet to be tested by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. It'll be interesting to see if these NHTSA ratings translate to an IIHS Top Safety Pick or Top Safety Pick Plus. Scroll down for the full press release from FCA. All-new 2015 Dodge Challenger Earns Five-Star Overall Safety Rating From U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration 2015 Dodge Challenger coupe earns five stars overall, the highest possible score in NHTSA's safety rating program More than 70 safety and security features, including new for 2015 class-exclusive Forward Collision Warning, adaptive cruise control, Blind-spot Monitoring and Rear Cross Path detection All-new 2015 Dodge Challenger starts at $26,995 (excluding tax, destination and title) December 18, 2014 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - The all-new 2015 Dodge Challenger has earned a five-star overall safety rating from the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Five stars is the highest possible safety rating given by NHTSA. "The new Dodge Challenger coupe further demonstrates our commitment to broaden the proliferation of advanced safety technologies, such as driver-assist features," says Scott Kunselman, Senior Vice President-Vehicle Safety and Regulatory, FCA-North America. In its assessment of the new Challenger, NHTSA notes the availability of Forward Collision Warning (FCW), which features forward-facing sensors programmed to detect the potential for certain types of frontal collisions. If detected, the driver is alerted with visual and audible warnings. The 2015 Dodge Challenger is the only car in its segment with such capability.
