1970 Dodge Challenger 440 SIX-PACK R/T

Description

All the Mopar fans out there already know what kind of a rare sight it is to find a 1970 Dodge Challenger convertible. So when there has been a ton invested to give it the triple-black treatment, glittering chrome, and a 440 six pack, then you know this is the ultimate muscle machine.

It's hard not to love one of the most intimidating looking muscle cars of all time in a shade of black that's shiny enough to be a mirror. Of course paint is only as good as the sheetmetal underneath, and it takes a laser straight body like this one because imperfections can't hide from this slick black. Good gaps are also essential, and you're looking at a refinished assembly that's far superior to what the factory had time to achieve. You're going to want to take a very close look at this dark affair, because the true passion is in the details. The scooped hood with hood pins looks aggressive all on its own, but when the sunlight hit it, there is a burgundy flake set into the raised section that clues people in that this muscle Mopar is out for blood. And aggressive shine is the true name of the game for this Challenger. The mirror-like chrome front bumper is nicely integrated into the front end that's wide enough to inhale all the lesser cars on the road. The bright rear bumper tucks in quickly so everyone can see the quad tail pipes. Plus, we all love the shine from Dodge's iconic Rallye wheel package.

With the flip of a switch, the electric black folding top reveals a clean black interior. So yes, the exterior, roof, and interior make for a true and desirable triple-black package. It's a rare gem that has plenty of features you'll love, including bucket seats and center console. This one stays as close to original-style spec as possible, so the driver-oriented interior still has the correct heat/defrost controls and AM radio. The woodgrained steering wheel matches the door panels, console, and dash, and the instrument panel is full of original gauges including a factory tach, and a working clock. But more than just looking great, you'll be pleasantly surprised by the condition of soft parts like the door panels and dash pad. These details are how you can really tell there has been a serious investment in creating a cut-above classic.

While you've already fallen in love/lust with this Mopar, the best feature is under the hood. You and everyone else will instantly know that you are looking at the legendary 440 cubic-inch big block with the three-duce "Six Pack" carbs on top. It looks immaculate in the engine bay – like it's the spring of 1970 and this droptop just came off the Hamtramck line. The fantastic presentation is for a very good reason. We have $7K in receipts just for the engine rebuild in 2013. So not only does it look fresh, but it also fires up with the kind of ease that not even new Dodges had back then. And speaking of firing it up, the Flowmaster stainless dual exhaust will let everyone know you've got the big one under the hood with its serious growl. You've got complete control over the V8 thanks to the thanks to the A727 Torqueflite three-speed automatic transmission that's stout enough to handle all that power. The same goes for the rear end that has $3K invested in Moser unit. And with power steering and front disc brakes, you're looking at a great vintage cruiser that's been invested in to make sure it's ready anytime you are.

This is arguably the best year ever for the Challenger, and Dodge made less than 3,200 (JH27) convertibles. So when you see the tens of thousands $$$$$ invested you realize just what a rare gem this is. Plus, with the full paperwork file that includes the owner's manual, build sheet, and all the restoration receipts, you know this is the one you'll keep forever. But you're not the only one with this ultimate Mopar dream. So hurry and call today!
