Powerful Restored Upgraded Classic American Muscle Car

This Hemi Orange and Flat Black 1971 Challenger was Restored and Upgraded with a focus on Performance.
Her restoration was completed in 2014 by her owner of 6 years.
She Looks Tough and she was Built Strong.

This "No Frills" Classic Challenger was made for Driving.
Included in her many upgrades is a Powerful 440 V8 with a Performance Carburetor and Intake Manifold and an Electronic Ignition.

Owning a Classic 440 Challenger has been the dream of many but finding one in this good of condition isn't always easy.
Part of this is due to the Challenger's short production run.

Introduced in the fall of 1969 the 1970 Challenger was Dodge's "answer to the Mustang and Camaro."
The last year for Real Challenger Power was 1971 and production of the Challenger ceased altogether midway through the '74 model year.

This Intimidating Mopar wasn't born with this Big Block 440 or this eye-catching paint scheme which is good news for you!
You can Drive or Customize this Challenger with impunity knowing that this beast was created and not factory born.

MECHANICAL :

All it takes is one look at her engine bay to see that this imposing Mopar is no lightweight.

She may not have come from the factory with a Big Block but she is one now!
Her bright "Street Hemi" Orange cast iron Classic 440 V8 engine has been Freshly Rebuilt with a COMP Cam Stock Heads New Springs and New Valves.
Under the Mopar Performance Cast Aluminum open element air cleaner a Holley 750cfm 4 barrel carburetor feeds fuel through an Edelbrock Performer RPM dual plane aluminum intake manifold.

At the sides her cast iron exhaust manifolds and cylinder heads with traditional Mopar Performance wrinkle finish valve covers give her engine bay a Mopar-Tough All-Business look.
At the front of her engine she has a stock fan alternator radiator and water pump.

Mated to this V8 is a Legendary 727 Torqueflite 3-Speed Automatic Transmission.
Her Torqueflite has been freshly rebuilt and includes a Shift Kit and a 2500 Stall Converter.

Delivering her power to the road is a Stout "741" differential assembly also called a "Banjo- Type" Rear End.
This is a true 8.75" rear with a 1 3/8" diameter pinion shaft.

The "741" axle was used on different models of Mopars from 1964-1972 including those with 440 engines.
To put her axle size into relative terms her 8 3/4 pinion at 1 3/8 (1.375") is actually bigger than a Ford 9" pinion at 1.313".

Yes she has Classic Challenger Power and with her updated Exhaust System she also has that Rumbling Muscle Car Sound!

Turn her key and an Accel coil sends fire to an Electronic Mopar Performance Vacuum Advance distributor which channels that spark through Yellow Accel 8mm wires.
The beast fires up with a roar and sounds tough through her updated Exhaust system starting with New 440 Magnum- High Performance Exhaust Manifolds connecting to 2.5" dual pipes leading to Flowmaster series 40 mufflers and ends with Polished Stainless dual exhaust tips.

Her bay looks less modified than it actually is thanks to the presence of pieces such as the orange Mopar ignition controller factory style voltage regulator and stock wiper motor attached to the firewall.

If Shiny Chrome and Braided Hoses is what you want then this is not the car for you.
If the "Serious No-Frills just Power" look is what revs you up this is your lucky day.

Rev her up and listen to that Growl.
Your fun has already begun and you haven't even shifted her out of Park!

Driving this machine is exhilarating to say the least.
Her handling is better than new with a Unisteer Big Block Power Rack & Pinion Kit installed and upgraded front disc brakes.
Power Performance and Handling upgrades have transformed this Challenger into a formidable Mopar Muscle Car.

CHASSIS / SUSPENSION / WHEELS :

This E-body car is unit-body based with a front sub-frame comprised of two side rails and three cross members. Her center cross-member in the sub-frame is called the K-member and it supports the engine and the front suspension.

Her front suspension uses upper and lower control arms with Torsion Bars acting as springs and gas shock absorbers.
In the rear she has Max Air Monroe Shocks and factory style semi-elliptical multi-leaf springs.

Her well-built chassis is strong her undercarriage is coated and her floorpans are solid.

Her Cooper Cobra G/T tires are mounted on New CRAGAR Super Sport Chrome Wheels for that Classic Muscle Car look.

Notice how her raked stance creates a visual display of Power and Speed even while she is standing still.
Her stance is necessary to accommodate her wide 105S P295/50R15 rear tires.
Yes Sir! This baby grabs the road and squeezes out every ounce of torque her 440 pumps out.

BODY :

Carl Cameron designer of the 1966 Dodge Charger designed the Sleek and Stylish Challenger.

Similar in looks to the '70 Challenger the '71 has a slightly different front and the rear.

Starting in the front you will notice her original distinctive angled and elongated two-panel ''Venturi'' Grille insert with rounded ends set between her Quad Halogen headlamps.
Her front valance has amber round parking lights original chrome bumper and a new black front spoiler.

Above her grille is a Flat Black painted "Power Bulge" hood with functional Hood Scoops and scoop inserts featuring two "440 Magnum" badges.
On her sides her sleek body lines underscored by the lack of wheel well trim or stripes extend from the headlights straight back to where they kick up over the rear wheels.

Her new chrome flip gas cap original door handles drip rail and window bright trim chrome sport mirrors and chrome wheels perfectly accent her slick orange body.
Step to the rear of this Challenger and find her original rear valance split tail lights and rear bumper with bumper guards below her new "Go Wing" spoiler.

This Challenger presents an aggressive exterior with a robust powertrain to create a timeless muscle car with endless appeal.

INTERIOR :

Her "No-Frills" Restoration carries over to her Interior which has been redone in a simplistic and functional stock black H6X9 style.

Interior parts replaced include: front and rear seat upholstery carpet front and rear door panels armrest pads seat backs kick panels and pillar post moldings and dashpad cover.
Under her new black carpet is sound deadening material.
Her door handles window cranks Day/Night Rearview Mirror and Dual Remote Side View Mirrors are stock.

Her stock high-back bucket seats with molded-in headrests are comfortable and secure with stock style lap belts and optional shoulder belts for the driver and front passenger.
Between the front seats a full center console with locking storage compartment frames a period- correct T-handle shifter protected by a barrier of bright trimmed wood applique.

The Dodge 2-Spoke steering wheel with padded rim looks good in front of her Rallye Dash.

The stock Rallye instrument cluster with Woodgrain Dash Panel Fuel Gauge Oil Pressure Gauge Water Temperature Gauge Amp Gauge Trip Meter Odometer Clock Tachometer and 150 MPH Speedometer is from a later model Challenger.
Her clock and tachometer are not working at this time.

Her dash also includes a Locking Glove Box Ash Tray and Headlamp Wiper/Washer Panel dimmer Rear Speaker and Air Vent/Heat controls.
A modern Sony 40Wx4 FM/AM CD Player with digital display and removable face is affixed under the dash with Pioneer speakers in the rear package shelf so you can cruise with your favorite tunes!

Complete and ready to cruise you'll be smiling every time you walk into your garage.
Experience one of the hottest creations of the muscle car era.

Your Classic Challenger is waiting for you.
