Summary:
Used 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T
Location:
Morgantown, PA
Description:
1970 Dodge Challenger R/T Hardtop In the hierarchy of legendary muscle cars, the 1970 Challenger isup near the pinnacle. It was created to "challenge" the Mustang,the Camaro, and Cougar and with a few boisterous engine options, itquickly raced to the top of pony car/muscle car dominance. It endedup being the precursor to the SRT/Hellcat/Demon dominance of themodern generation of muscle cars. For a short period of time,nothing could top the HiPo Mopars. For consignment, a 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T, a true V-code carwith some tasteful day 2 performance mods. Relative to most carsfrom 1970, it has had low ownership numbers and our consignor, thecar's third owner, has owned it since 2020 and completed the enginework. The original Broadcast Sheet is included with the cardenoting this as a Super Track Pack ride, and it retains itsnumbers matching transmission. ExteriorSingle stage Walnut Metallic paint now covers the factory FC7finish, (that's Plum Crazy for the non Mopar aficionados),definitely harkens back to the time period, (who didn't have abrown car back in the day?), and is accented with gold pin stripingand designs throughout. A flat black covers the power bulge hoodwhich is flanked by aggressive nostril intake scoops. The chromebumpers, window trim, and emblems are in great shape and the bodypanels are straight. 15-inch Cragar SS wheels fill the wheel wellsand staggered size tires give the car a slightly raked and forcefullook. Four rectangle exhaust tips fit into the sculpted rearvalance where we happen to notice a long scratch on the surface.Other imperfections include a filler bump and another surfacescratch. Overall, a very nice survivor exterior. InteriorThings are very original in here with plastic molded black doorpanels are no nonsense and not overdesigned. They do have a centersection of faux wood which warms things up a bit and connects withwood elements on the dash and console. High back black vinyl bucketseats are up front, and we note a tear on the driver's seat. Moretextured vinyl makes up the rear 2+2 seats and along with themolded plastic trim back there, look great. The 3-spoke faux woodrimmed steering wheel looks good and goes well with the woodapplique backed dashboard. Nothing was particularly complicated in1970 and there are four round gauges relaying all the informationthe driver needs. An AM radio is about as basic as we've seen andall controls are housed in a cove that is canted towards thedriver, leaving the passenger to simply sit back and enjoy theride. This includes the center console where we find perhaps themost iconic shifter ever produced, the Hurst pistol grip based in asmooth wood applique lined platform. Black loop style carpet coversthe floor in fine fashion and the black, stitched headliner looksgreat. The trunk has a fitted mat but it's pretty well stained andthere's also a space saver spare and a cross lug wrench there. DrivetrainA non-original 440ci V8 is the heart of the beast and is fed by asix-pack consisting of three new 2-barrel carburetors. The engine'sbeen bored .030 over, houses a Comp Cam with .507i/510e lift,240i/246e duration and a106 intake centerline, and 110 degrees oflobe separation. Hedman headers send the spent gas southward. Thematching numbers transmission is in place and is a New Process A8334-speed manual sending a consignor stated 500 horsepower to theDana 60 rear end holding 4.10 SureGrip gears. Power brakes, frontdisk and rear drum, have the ungodly task of taming this beast. UndercarriageAbsolutely no complaints here as the underside is super clean savefor some light invasive rust in the center rear of the trunkflooring. The exhaust shines as it makes its way from the headersinto a pair of Flowmaster mufflers and then takes center stage asmean looking quad exhaust in the back. We note just a touch of oilat the rear differential but not an active leak. Torsion barsuspension fits the front while leaf springs with traction bars arefound in the back. Drive-AbilityThe well tuned carbs take on some gas and the spark ignites the 440to life and the headers start the cacophony of exhaust notes. Thecar has obvious power and very good acceleration, just as thelegendary lore would dictate. Tracking is on point and braking isexcellent. Everything functions with the exception of the reverselights. It always feels like a bit of a history lesson when these vintageMopar muscle cars come in. They're usually well documented and youcan practically create a birth certificate and bio for each one.Here's a clean and well sorted example in a period color and someupgraded internals. Put your right hand on that pistol grip andstart writing a check with your left before some other challengerbeats you to the punch.
