A 1969 Dodge Charger R/T has undergone a complete restoration
The early Dodge Charger is quite famous as a muscle car and cinematic icon, especially when it comes to the second generation built from 1968-1970.
The wide stance, hidden headlights, and noisy available engines are a combination that defines the early muscle car era, so it is no surprise that the second-generation Charger is becoming increasingly sought after.
Searching the classifieds and restoring it to showroom condition is one of the mainstays of a muscle car fan's life, but for some buyers, turnkey is the only option.
The company did all the work in-house, including new trim and chrome, and spent about 3,000 hours on the build. The result is a design that combines old and new, with the latter guaranteeing state-of-the-art performance and reliability.
For example, the original suspension was replaced with a sport-tuned suspension with Koni adjustable dampers. The steering and braking system were also upgraded, with the latter receiving 11-inch rotors at the front and 11-inch drums at the rear.
The powertrain is a 440 cubic inch V8 with a camshaft and a Holley 770 Street Avenger four-barrel carburetor. It is coupled to a high-flow stainless steel exhaust system that produces a great sound.
Inside, all major components such as gauges, controls and radio have been restored to maintain authenticity. However, other elements were also replaced, in some cases with materials far superior to the original. These include natural wenge wood accents and Italian leather trim. Soundproofing materials have also been added.
How much all of this will cost is not yet known.
