Description of 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T
1970 Dodge Challenger R/T 383 MagnumWe are pleased to be offering this fully restored frame- off restored 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T up for sale. This Challenger was previously owned by a national icon collector and no expense was spared in the restoration process. The work was performed by Copperhead Customs. a premier full service custom restoration shop in Knoxville. TN. Great attention was given to each detail to insure that factory specifications were implemented according to the original factory fender rage from bumper to bumper. Great effort was given in order to maintain a pure OEM build as this particular Challenger is a very rare and special numbers matching Challenger that has been evaluated by professional appraisers as well as the president of the current manufacturer. In each case. this Challenger has been professionally described as being true to original the OEM specifications and is a hard to find vehicle. Please pay close attention to the detail in the attached pictures which will show the high level of detail that was given during the restoration process. Background and History of the R/TThe R/T option added performance features to the base hardtop or convertible. R/T stood for “Road and Track. ” It was required if you wanted the most powerful engines. such as the 383 Magnum R/TThe R/T option upped the base engine to the 330 horsepower 383 and beefed up the suspension and brakes. Over the engine. a Power Bulge hood added dual scoops and was held down with hood pins. The interior gained high-back vinyl bucket seats and the Rallye gauges. including a 150 mph speedometer and an 8000 rpm tach. R/T buyers could choose longitudinal stripes. a “Bumblebee” stripe around the tail. or no stripes at all. R/T badges were mounted on the side front fenders and on the grill. The emblem for the 383 Magnum engine lies along the sloping side of the scoops. Of course. the sound should be enough. Pop the pins. swing open the hood. and treat yourself to what looks like acres of automotive engineering. Though low. the engine compartment is wide and deep. allowing room for a range of big-block engines. Even the underside of the hood bespeaks Chrysler’s penchant for under-the-skin engineering. The racing-style fuel cap flips open to ease the pain of keeping the single-digit fuel-mileage 383 Magnum engine fed with premium petrol. The Rallye Gauge includes four circular pods. It includes a full-size tachometer (8000 rpm). speedometer (150 mph). and clock. The final pod is divided into quadrants for gauges reporting oil-pressure. alternator charging. water temperature. and fuel level. Also included is a trip odometer. This model has the wood-grain steering wheel and gear- shift knob. The asymmetrical console keeps the focus on the driver. High-back bucket seats came as part of the R/T model. The driver’s side door sports a remote-control racing- style side-view mirror. At the front. a deeply inset grill looks like a hungry mouth. This grill was based on sketches by designer Carl Cameron for the prototype 1966 Dodge Charger. The inset grill holds the Challenger and R/T emblems. The overall impression is that of a middleweight boxer in top form and wearing a well-cut suit. Flowing lines predominate. inside and out: along the side. across the roof. around the grill and tail. across the dash. and around the windows. But there’s more than meets the eye. Conservative badging and low-profile scoops only hint at the robust drivetrain beneath. Power within elegance. Road HandlingThe suspension could handle real roads at top speed. At the front. independent non-parallel lateral control arms were mated to torsion bar springs and anti-roll bars. The rear featured a live axel on asymmetrical. semi-elliptic leaf springs. All that drive train and suspension are attached to a steel unit body chassis with subframes. Engineering extended to even small details. like the left-hand threaded lug nuts on the passenger's side.
