STK 3105 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T Convertible

Dodge did not jump into the Pony Car fray until Chrysler had introduced the 3rd generation 'Cuda. That original Dodge Challenger is a timeless classic and the inspiration for the current version of the Challenger. This 1970 Challenger R/T has been the beneficiary of a total restoration completed in 2012. The odometer mileage of just over 70,500 is believed to be actual. Originally a Dark Green/Green/White color combination, the Challenger convertible is now Triple Black. Paint, fit and finish are excellent throughout and all brightwork including hood pins and 'racing' gas cap are in like-factory condition. The white accent stripes are correct and well done and a power-assisted convertible top is virtually flawless. The black vinyl interior looks just like it would have in 1970. Options include bucket seats, center console, Rallye Instrumentation Cluster w/tach and an aftermarket AM/FM/CD sound system w/bluetooth. The Challenger was one of the most roadworthy of all pony cars of this generation and the mechanicals of our Challenger are said to be original numbers-matching. Power is furnished by a 383ci High-Performance engine (N code). Advertised horsepower was 335bhp, but most MOPAR folks will tell you that was quite conservative. Our Challenger's motor was professionally rebuilt in 2016. The block was tanked/magnafluxed, bored .030, crank polished and all new bearings were installed. New pistons/rings were fitted along with ARP bolts, a performance cam kit and oil pump. (This motor sounds very much like the 383/Road Runner of this era.) The heads received a complete valve job including tank/magnaflux,
milling, new exhaust seats, bronze valve guides and micro-polished valve stems. A single four-barrel provides carburation and air is furnished by a 'Shaker Hood' intake. (There is documentation that our Challenger was not originally equipped with this feature, but that it was added to the car. The original hood/components are included.) The 383 Wedge is backed by the indestructible A-833 4-speed manual gearbox w/Hurst 'Pistol-Grip' shifter (D21 code) and 8.75” SureGrip differential with 3.91:1 gears (A31 code). It is said that only 138 Challenger R/T convertibles were equipped with this drivetrain configuration. BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires are mounted on 15” Magnum 500 wheels and chassis features include power steering and power disc/drum brakes. This beautiful Dodge Challenger comes with documentation including photos, receipts and a digital file of the restoration. This '70 Challenger R/T is a classic MOPAR - come by and check it out. You will not be disappointed. ALL VEHICLES SOLD “AS IS”.
