1970 Dodge Charger R/T 440 Automatic, numbers match
Offered for sale is a beautiful 1970 Dodge Charger R/T.This is a 440 4-barrel, Automatic car painted in its original B5 Blue color.This is a numbers matching car with its original engine and transmission.This is an export-labeled car, with a "made in the USA" tag on the hood latch support. It was probably ordered by a US serviceman while on duty overseas, but never actually left the USA.
The car was restored and engine rebuilt sometime in the mid 90's before I bought it. I've owned this car for over 21 years and have decided it's time for it to go to a new home.I classify this car as an older restoration of excellent driver quality. This has been a great car, both to drive and show.

More details:
ENGINE -
Original numbers matching 440.Runs strong, with its original configuration.I installed a mopar electronic ignition system (original distributor is included).It also has chrome valve covers that appear to be vintage mopar direct-connection pieces, (came that way when I bought it).I installed a new oil pan.A street demon carburetor is currently installed, but the original carburetor is in very good condition and is included.The car has a 26-inch aftermarket radiator, the original 22-inch radiator is included and is also in excellent condition.The car has a TTi exhaust system with correct manifolds and dynomax turbo mufflers, stainless tips.
BODY -
Body was restored well over 20 years ago, but still looks great.I can tell the passenger rear quarter was replaced along with the passenger door.The other rear quarter is the original, with some repairs in front of the wheel opening.I had the trunk floor replaced as there were some pin-holes in the center portion. The gas tank and sender were replaced. The car still has its original floors, rockers, and frame rails - they are solid.The paint does show some age and flaws but is very presentable.Door glass and rear window are very good but do show a few minor scratches. The windshield was replaced and is excellent.Chrome and stainless trim is very good with a few minor scratches.The car is a stripe delete, but I added a bumblebee stripe, it is the period correct vinyl type and can be easily removed.
SUSPENSION & DRIVETRAIN -
I rebuilt both front and rear suspension with all new bushings and ball joints.I installed front disc brakes and spindles from a 73 E-body.The original spindles, front drum brakes, and master cylinder can included at no charge.The rear still has drum brakes, and I installed an adjustable proportioning valve.New rear leaf springs were installed.The 8 3/4 rear was re-built with new seals and bearings.The original 3:23 one-legger center-section was replaced with 3:55 sure grip unit.The original center-section can be included (also no charge).The original 727 automatic shifts firm and down-shifts correctly, and it has an extra deep TCI pan.
INTERIOR -
The seat upholstery was replaced before I had the car, still looks great, no tears or noticeable wear.The carpet was also replaced.I restored the instrument gauge faces and installed a new chrome bezel.The simulated wood grain panels were faded, so I had a vinyl overlay installed.I also installed new door panels and new door emblems.Headliner is in great shape.I installed a headlight relay circuit so the lights are bright like a modern car.
