Description of 1970 Dodge Challenger RT |
I purchased car in 1986 from the person who bought it in 1970. Last time it was driven was 1993. Professionally painted in 1997. Car has 383. but not the original one. has original intake. exhaust manifolds. other items. Engine professionally rebuilt in 1991. balanced by Hess Machine Shop in Fitchburg Mass. Less than 400 miles on rebuilt engine. last run in 1993. Some original engine parts: air clnr. intake. tranny. rear full-posi end 3:91 gears. Rear window de-fogger option. luggage rack option (however missing). Car came with wide black stripe around tail and 1/4 inch wide or so stripe about 1/4 inch away from it. towards the front. Has a scat pac sticker on drivers rear window as well. either came from previous owner or factory. Hood. doors. trunk lid. trunk area. windshield areas and hard top professionally restored. However. top is not perfect. It had a black vinyl top and as we know. back in the day. the factory was not so precise with the roofs of the cars getting vinyl tops. Around front windshield needs finishing. Hood and doors are outstanding. included are: Year-1 new front and rear valences (both painted with the car in 1997). as well as new vinyl top (not installed on car). All trim items. Original bumpers. nbsp;NOS headliner (5 bow). NOS wheel trim. NOS pie plate with "383 Magnum". tires and rims that were on the car when I bought it. recent exhaust. Have seats and door skins. interior plastic. Here is what is incorrect: Aftermarket front and rear fenders. most likely from the far east added in 1992. Directional areas need work. front ones (replacement 1972) were sawed to fit 1970 lights. back ones both 1970 weren't touched. Antenna hole hacked as well. portion of fire wall as well as trunk floor. and front floors were replaced with metal. but not with factory parts. Passenger mirror broke off prior to painting. have it. but will need to be replaced or reworked. Here is what is missing from the car: luggage rack. gas tank. front windshield is busted. rear deck lid (cardboard). trunk lock/key. /p>Here is what needs attention: could use new leaf springs. rear part of rear frame has rot. (see picture). needs a new carpet. bumpers need restoration. Brake lines were added yet 'high schooled' in 1987. Not what I would call a neat and tight job. Can see specs through the paint on front fenders. Dodge has been in basement for a long time. First time being advertised March 2015. Last picture is of car in 1987 or so without fenders. Replaced radiator in 1986. reused original tanks. still has green fluid in it. looks good. Doused engine with marvel oil back in the day. when moth-balled. Ask me for more photos and I will send them through Ebay Email. |
