1973 Dodge Challenger
OK SO HERE IS MY 73 CHALLENGER JUST IN TIME FOR CRUISES! I BOUGHT AS IT IS A MONTH AGO -PREVIOUS OWNER HAD JUST COMPLETED A TWO YEAR RESTORATION..THERE IS ALOT OF DETAILS AND I WILL TRY TO DESCRIBE HER AS BEST POSSIBLE.. THE CAR WAS COMPLETELY DISSASEMBLED -THERE WAS ONLY SOME SURFACE RUST AS YOU WOULD EXPECT FROM A CAR FROM TEXAS (STILL TITLED THERE) ALL ORIGINAL GLASS IN MINT CONDITION AND ROCK HARD SOLID FRAME RAILS AND 90% ORIGINAL SHEET METAL..SO SHE WAS COMPLETELY DISSASEMBLED AND SANDED TO BARE METAL EVEN THE TRUNK FLOOR AND DROP OFFS ARE ORIGINAL AND RUST FREE! THIS CAR IS AS RUST FREE FOR UNDER $50K YOU WILL FIND!! ONLY THE REAR VALANCE WAS CHANGED TO ACCEPT THE CUSTOM DUAL EXHAUST NEW FROM MOTOR TO QUAD STAINLESS TIPS...THE HOOD WAS OFF A 1971 RT. THE ORIGINAL PAINT WAS SANDED TO METAL AND ANY SURFACE RUST REMOVED, SHE WAS GIVEN 3 COATS OF EPOXY PRIMER BLOCKED THREE TIMES THEN GIVEN ITS FIRST RECOAT FC7 PLUM CRAZY BASE COAT CLEAR COAT IN ACRYLIC URETHANE. SWEET GOING DOWN THE ROAD TURNING HEADS WERE EVER YOU GO! SHE IS COMFORTABLE TO SIT IN-NEW LEAGIONDARY SEAT COVERS WITH NEW CARPET HEADLINER AND DASH.THE WINDOWS AND DOORS OPEN EASY AND CLOSE TIGHT.ALL LIGHTS WORK ORIGINAL AM RADIO DOES NOT WORK. THE ORIGINAL 318 MOTOR WAS TOSSED AND A BIG BLOCK WAS PUT IN ITS PLACED. THE 400 BIG BLOCK MOTOR OUT OF A 1975 CHARGER WAS REBUILT WITH 10 TO 1 KEITH BLACK PISTONS WITH ALL OEM SIZE PARTS TO RUN GOOD ON PUMP GAS LOWER END HELD TOGETHER WITH A FORGED CRANKSHAFT OUT OF A 1967 383 WITH OEM BEARINGS...ON TOP, REBUILT 346 HEADS, A VINTAGE WIEND INTAK, MANIFOLD WITH EDLEBROCK 1406 CARBORATOR AND REALLY COOL CHROME VALVE COVERS- THE AIR CONDITIONING HAS BEEN CONVERTED TO R134A--HAS A NEW CONDENSER AND RADIATOR AC DID WORK LAST YEAR BUT PROBABLY COULD USE A SERVICE AS THE WEATHER CHANGES..MOTOR HAS A REALLY NICE RUMBLE THROUGH THE CUSTOM TURBO EXHAUST AND GROUND THUMPING TORQUE FLIGHT 727 TRANSMISSION AND 3.55 POSI REAR- THE SLAP STICK SHIFTER MAKES HER JUMP OUT OF HER SHELL AND SUPER FUN TO DRIVE!! ALL THE TRIM WAS REMOVED AND EITHER REPLACED OR RESTORED- THE 1970 LOOK WAS PREFERRED SO THE EXTERIOR WAS ENAMORED WITH THE 70S STRIPE AND NEW BUMPERS-STILL HAS THE YEAR CORRECT RALLY WHEELS AND 21570/14 COOPER COBRAS..FRONT END WAS RESTORED AND ALIGNMENT WAS DONE WHEN TIRES WERE INSTALLED THE POWER BRAKES ARE ALL NEW INCLUDING THE MASTER CYLINDER HOSES AND CALIPERS. SO I HAVE DISSCRIBED THIS BEAUTIFUL CAR AS BEST POSSIBLE BUT I AM SURE I HAVE MISSED SOME DETAILS..PICS SHOULD HELP-I HAVE MORE PICS ON REQUEST..THERE WAS NO EXPENSE SPARED CREATING THIS GREAT CAR-ALTHOUGH NOT A 100 POINT SHOW CAR AT THE PRICE SET,I WOULD NOT BE EMBARRASSED PARKING HER NEXT TO ONE OF THOSE PUT PUT TRAILER QUEENS AT A SHOW!!
