wow...
paint looks a bit dull in some pics but overall condition seems great. Spec isnt shy either!!
1970 Dodge Charger 440 R/T
This is a rare opportunity to buy not only a charger, but an R/T with its original number matching engine block and gearbox.
The 1970 was the last year of the famous coke bottle shape chargers and production figures were lower than the previous 69 and 68 years, making the 1970 model a little bit more rare.
The most noticeable changes for the 70 r/t model was the wrap around front bumper and door pods with the R/T emblem.
This is the same model year as the car in the Fast and the Furious film.
Now this car is not in show condition and does require ongoing restoration but is taxed and mot’d so drive it now and finish restoring it later.
Most of the hard work has been done and has just had a quick coat of paint.
The car came with some good options from the factory.
It was originally in FE5 Bright Red paint with a black vinyl roof.
The Fender tag is intact showing all the codes and the production tape is also on the drivers door.
Below is a description of the car as much as possible:-
The interior is nice, headlining needs fitting but is supplied.
Dash board pad is excellent
Front Jazz Bucket seats.
New rear seat cover
New Carpet
Simpson 5 point harness (drivers side)
New headlining (needs fitting)
New door and ¼ Window seals.
New interior screw kit (supplied)
New door hinges!!!!!
New door handles and locks
New chrome door sills
New front and rear R/T emblems
New R/T door emblems (supplied)
New Fender seals
New Grill Spacers (supplied)
The external chrome is good, rear window chrome needs fitting better but is ok.
The car has had repair panels fitted to the rear 1/4s and sheet metal in the trunk.
Frame rails and floor pan is solid with only minor repairs
Front grille is excellent with only a minor crack to the top side but there is a spare broken grill to go with the car. Headlamp doors are fine and the motor works but not wired up at the moment.
Overall the car is solid and the body is good, it really needs a little time and tlc to the paintwork and body and this would be an excellent car.I do have the door air scoops, they need spraying and fitting,
The alloy wheels are Appliance 8.5x15
Tyres are new BF Goodrich all round
New Mini high Torque (lighter/more powerful) Starter motor
New Alternator and Bracket
