Description of 1983 Dodge Shelby Charger --

By 1983 the Belvedere-built Charger had become an established player in America's re-invigorated compact car market. Eccentric gearheads knew if you wanted to look cool you bought an L-Body. And if you wanted to look cool and go fast you bought a Shelby L-Body. Averaging just over 240 miles per year this pint-size MoPar appears to have rarely seen anything other than sunshine and warm summer days. In fact the first 7900 miles of its life was under the meticulous care of its original owner in th...eir first 3 years of ownership. In 1986 the Shelby Charger was stowed away in a barn for long-term storage. 2005 is when this Mopar would see sunlight again when the original owner decided to post it up for sale. The second owner was quick to make a deal and towed the car home where he got it back to the mechanical condition it was in 19 years prior. And with the help of some NOS parts sourcing by the second owner this spry sports coupe is still a true head turner everywhere it goes! In their effort to improve the Charger Shelby and Chrysler did not overlook the car's mechanicals. Consequently it develops 13 more horsepower and 10 more lb./ft. of torque than the standard Omni mill. These enhancements plus a lower final drive ratio make the car a tick quicker than the standard Charger and its early '80s competition. Specifically the Shelby has a 0 to 60 time of 10 seconds flat and a 117MPH top speed. Shelby Chargers came standard with an A525 5-speed that feeds the front wheels. Holding that tossable drivetrain off the ground is an original Special Sports Suspension that utilizes shorter springs stiffer shocks and correct power front disc and rear drum brakes to both lower the car and improve already responsive handling. And at the corners of that chassis original 'pizza' wheels spin original 195/50/HR15 Goodyear Eagle GTs around locking lug nuts. If you're an enthusiast who likes to put their hardware on the road few classics deliver this blend of exclusivity and practicality. Call click or visit for more information on this 7970-mile MoPar!
