Description of 1973 Dodge Charger SE Rallye |
Originally a Utah car. We have over $30,000 in receipts for rebuild. Drives and runs great. Only about 9,000 miles put on it since the rebuild. Drives down highway at 80 miles per hour without shaking, pulling, or any other defects. Also, with the 5 speed manual, the car gets about 15-17 MPG at 70 MPH cruising. Tremec TKO 500 5-speed manual transmission with hydraulic clutch and Hurst sidewinder shifter and pistol grip. This car has been driven carefully, and NOT hard since the rebuild. It has never burned rubber since the rebuild (not that it couldn't). She has General ZR245-50-17 Z-rated tires all the way around to allow for 4 wheel tire rotations. Here's the story: We bought this car off Ebay 4-5 years ago. It appeared to be all original, yellow with black rallye stripe, 400 Mag 2bbl engine, 727 torqueflite auto tranny. We drove it home from the parking lot where we met the car transporter and it ran pretty good. Over the next 4 years, we took it completely apart to clean, rebuild, and inspect. There were only two things that didn't come off the car; the rear axle and the dash board. Everything else came completely out and was rebuilt, replaced,or cleaned and reconditioned. The engine block casting numbers showed that the engine was originally a 383 cubic inch from 1972. The machine shop bored the cylinders when reconditioning and made it back to a 400. The only difference between the 383 and 400 blocks was the bore. Both engines had same stroke and were the same wedge engines except for the bore. So, the 400 Magnum badge on the hood is in fact true. The machine shop redid the heads with new valves and springs and all the usual procedures that a set of heads goes through at the shop. Also, since it had a forged crank in good shape, they just honed the journals, new pistons due to new bore, custom ground Erson cam, and so many little things that you'd just have to go over the shop receipt to see it (we have all receipts). The machine shop put the bottom end of engine back together leaving just some items on the top and accessories to install. All body panels came off. There was absolutely no rust through or even surface rust when we got it. Utah.... There is a little body repair on the passenger front fender just in front of wheel well and just around the rear passenger wheel well to repair damage due to a tire blow-out. All those spaces where you normally see evidence of rust and repair on these cars are perfectly clean on this one. Rear windows, fender wells, floor panels, rocker panels, underbody, etc,. All in great shape. Now the underbody has some areas where the undercoating has been knocked off that are rust colored because it was exposed metal and got wet, but nothing more than you'd see on any car. Doors close perfectly. Interior front seats are Cipher brand bucket seats that are faux leather with 4 point Cipher seat belts. Since this car was driven around quite regularly since the rebuild, and we are pretty safety conscious, we thought that 4 point harnesses might offset not having airbags... Rear bench seats were re-upholstered to match the black and white combo of the front seats and new headliner also put in by Orlando Auto Upholstery shop in Orlando, FL. Carpet replaced. The dash is the same because it was and is in excellent shape. Dash has NO cracks or warping and is still supple. There is not a heater core in the car right now because we were getting ready to put in air conditioning unit. Have original build sheet from under the rear seat.
