Kro-Pro Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 I love these cars, it is my dream car. I would love to see pics of any that have been restored, in process, or one that hasn't even started. To see a beginning to completion would be really cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Skyking Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 The first year of the Dodge Challenger was 1970. I love the beefed up new ones!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curti Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Kro-Pro, I suggest you google Dodge Challenger 1970 Then click on images. Skyking , the 'beefed up ones ' are a Hellcat. I believe it is the quickest production car to come out of a US factory. 707 HP 650 twist . VERY serious ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Schramm Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 The company I work for sells parts for the Hellcat engine set up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kro-Pro Posted March 27, 2017 Author Share Posted March 27, 2017 Opps, my bad, yes a 1970, I was thinking about a different car and got sidetracked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frantz Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 The new challenger looks great until it's parked next to an original E body, then it looks like the same car after 40 years of beer and potato chips. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The retro look is what they were trying to achieve. Along with the Mustang and Camero. They were all good looking then and they are good looking now. Which one you like the best............. Well that is a blond brunette thing . But right now in a stock form, I think the Dodge is the quickest. Hey, I am a Corvette guy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 (edited) I realize this is a 2011, but here is the Kowalski version of the Challenger. Number 9 of 10 built to commemorate the movie, "Vanishing Point". I rode in it and it was FAST!!

Has a V6 and it is more than enough engine for everything except racing and she/we do not race. She loves that car. I just play with trucks.

Chase392 Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 I've owned 2 classic Challengers, both 1970 models. The first was my first car (father-son resto project) that is still in the family, the second came along later with the intentions of building a 440+6 R/T clone. Sadly the second was just too far gone to save (at the time) and it ended up donating its roof structure so a real R/T that had a tree land on it could live. Wonderful cars with lots of clever engineering touches that really set them apart from other vehicles from the period. Parts availability has improved but still nowhere near that of GM and Ford. Sadly, most Mopar guys are firm believers in one of George Carlin's famous quotes.... "Your stuff is s**t, and their s**t is stuff". Too many years of bad dealings with vendors and individuals selling perfumed junk at astronomical prices really soured me on vintage Mopars. Out of a half dozen only one remains in the stable.... my original 1970... waiting for its turn to be finished now 20 years later. Well... that one and one more 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
