Exomod is no stranger to stretching vintage (looking) carbon fiber Dodge bodywork over modern Challenger Hellcat foundations. Its current catalog spans three variations, including a mean-looking Daytona, but the company recently announced a new car with a Hennessey-supercharged V8 under the hood.

The Ascent Blue Angel, named after a custom-built rescue helicopter from Ascent Helicopters in British Columbia, is a 2023 Dodge Challenger Hellcat Jailbreak with a sunroof underneath. It sports a full carbon body modeled after a 1968 Charger, with more carbon accenting its chin spoiler, door jambs, rockers, and rear diffuser. The car rides on Forgeline 20-inch wheels wrapped in Nitto tires, which reveal six-piston Brembo Brakes underneath.

Power comes from a wild Hennessey Performance supercharged 6.2-liter V8, making more than 1,000 horsepower. It’s paired with a TorqueFlite paddle-shift eight-speed automatic transmission and a custom active exhaust with carbon fiber finishers. SRT Competition Suspension helps keep that power on the ground.
