This 1970 Dodge Challenger has undergone a full top to bottom rebuild in 2015. It received numerous upgrades in performance and handling, new paint, new interior, and even a new Kenwood sound setup. It’s practically a new custom car under an iconic body.

The Challenger is powered by a top-of-the-line Chrysler Big-block 440 Six Pack – a 7.2-liter, V8 engine, boosted by 3×2-barrel Holley carburetors. At its peak, the engine produces 390 hp and 490 lb/ft torque.

Behind it sits a brand new 727, 3-speed automatic transmission sending the power to a rebuilt Chrysler 8-¾ inch rear axle with 3.71:1 final drive ratio and limited slip differential.

Completely rebuilt steering and suspension and upgraded electrical wiring.
