Charger RT Tribute

Description

1970 Dodge Charger RT Tribute

Offered for consignment and your viewing pleasure, showing 55,672 non verifiable miles, the epitome of what a Dodge muscle car from 1970 should be: covered headlamps in an inset grille, the flying buttress rear window treatment, swelling fenders on a two door platform and power to match its visual presentation.  That usually means a Hemi engine, but instead of the OEM 426 factory mill, this car is equipped with a 472ci 575hp version topped with Indy aluminum heads and ceramic polished headers with electric exhaust cutouts.  Unlike the factory release, this engine is even equipped with Vintage Air, power steering, power brakes, as well as MSD ignition parts, serpentine belt front accessories and an aluminum radiator.  That power is backed by an 18 spline A833 4-speed transmission with overdrive.  Inside is a Legendary SE level interior appointment done in white materials, a center console with Pistol Grip floor shift, wood grain trim, a Tic-Toc-Tach and 150 MPH speedometer, 3 spoke sport steering wheel and R/T trim mats and dash logos.  Outside, this car is covered in a variation of FJ5 Sublime by Michael's Custom Paint, with HEMI hood blackouts using silver lettering, a white vinyl top, chrome exhaust tips, dual body color mirrors, R/T door scoops and emblems, and the white scat stripe around the rear.  Riding on a set of 5 spoke styled road wheels and modern BF Goodrich Radial T/A tires, this Dodge Charger is ready for you to turn the key and smoke the competition on the show field as well as at the stop light drags.

Exterior
Bumpers have been rechromed and all trim has been polished to look like new, so on the bling side of this car we are fully covered.  All this is attached to straight steel panels all reworked to perfection then bathed in Sublime Green paint, which shows with nary a flaw.  Also adorned with the original factory style sticker in white, the rear is wrapped with the wide white band and RT callouts show their faces on the added door scoops.  Large “flying buttress” styled B pillars swoop rearward, framing the rear glass which tilts at a lesser angle than the pillars and give the back of the roof the inset look.  Upfront the correct hidden badged R/T headlight panels are in a 3 segment grille with surrounding trimmings and one of those shiny dipped bumpers below.  A body matching side view mirror hangs from either door, and on the driver's side is a large hinged fill cap on the top of the rear quarter.  Not to be left out is the expansive roof, now covered in a perfectly complimenting white vinyl roof.  BF Goodrich supplies the rubber which wraps the Mopar Road wheels rims on all 4 corners.  I'll call this car anything but subliminal...read on kids for further explanation.

InteriorThe interior seats have been reupholstered with parchment white vinyl all to original factory specs thanks to a SE kit from Legendary Upholstery, they look brand new.  Front buckets in high back form, complete with some puffy tuck and roll inserts and smooth bolsters show as nearly new and the rear bench follows suit.  Door panels are also white, very clean and all correct circular machined stainless Charger badge on the sills.  A true to original wood wrapped steering wheel has the Fratzog corporate emblem central button.  The factory gauge cluster lines up for you on the back dash front, and all spit shined and gleaming dials and knobs are present and accounted for upfront.  A real wood pistol grip handle shift lever is in the center of the restored console, with the factory mac tac material.  Mounted in dash central is the factory AM radio hovering just below the slides for the heater/AC.  Black carpet floods the floors and has fitted Charger R/T floor mats embroidered in a snappy red colorway.  Pure crisp perfection ladies and gentlemen.

Drivetrain
Under the hood is certainly sublime, not only in color but in the fact that resting between the fenders is a potent mill that can destroy anything that comes its way.  A 472ci Hemi V8 sporting an aftermarket block, hows that for some piston packing prowess?  Oh, how about a pair of Indy aluminum cylinder heads for good measure along with an aluminum dual 4-barrel intake topped off with a factory style air cleaner assembly and wrinkle finish valve covers.  Other neat-o features are a full MSD ignition, an Afco 4 core aluminum radiator with dual electric fans, March Enterprise serpentine pulley setup and full length headers and FlowMaster exhaust with factory style chrome tips.  On the back is a 4-speed manual transmission designated A833 along with an overdrive unit, and way back a 8 3/4" rear axle.

Undercarriage
Done just right baby bear, all evenly Sublime coated, and tight as a drum on the structural side of things.  An upgraded blowproof bellhousing is on to accommodate the bit of extra power from those 472 cubes, and to bring her to a stop are power from disc and power rear drum brakes.  Torsion bars provide the front suspension ride and leaf springs are on the rear making for a comfortable ride that allows the drivetrain to put power to the ground.

Drive-Ability
The horsepower specs are all in the description, but we had to see for ourselves, so our resident muscle car shade tree mechanic and decoder expert took her for a spin.  Everything was working perfectly save for the AC not blowing cold and his only comment when returning was “This car is one bad mu*#er Fu*@er!".  While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase. 

A Charger R/T tribute and then some touched by the hands of a passionate restorer who has a need for speed and penchant for power.  Nearly perfect in every way, right out of the showroom, then to the restorer who only made it better, by a quarter mile!
