You have to see this car to believe it.


With plenty of attention focused on the modern Dodge muscle cars, there seems to be even more interest in the classic Mopars. And while there are plenty of good examples out there, this 1970 Dodge Challenger coupe is one of the best available. Plus, you might be thinking this muscle car looks familiar and for good reason. It was part of the Hot Rod Power Tour back in 2007, causing a wave of accolades and picking up some nice awards in the process. It sure would be a shining star in a collection of any size.

First, the powertrain. A 426ci Hemi V8 crate engine from Mopar Performance has been modified with a more aggressive cam, Hilborn EFI system, custom headers, and upgraded exhaust with Flowmaster Super 44 mufflers for an aggressive rumble. The result is over 575-horsepower on tap. While that’s impressive, the seller says this engine was tuned for hours so it starts and runs like a modern mill.

You’ll note this Mopar sits nice and low. There’s an independent suspension installed front and back with adjustable coilovers. Disc brakes, rack-and-pinion steering, and Symbolic TS15 20-inch wheels are all included.
