1970 Dodge Charger R/T Additional Info:
REAL DEAL! XS29U0 Charger R/T 1970. This was obviously made up as a General Lee clone from the Dukes of Hazzard fame in the 80s I'm guessing. I'm fairly sure it was never used in the show or movie, because I've been told 70s were never used. At any rate the original provenance of this car is that of a 4 SPEED FC7 purple car from the factory. You can tell it had a black vinyl top, hood pins, black interior, woodgrain dash, the cluster is missing. I believe the original radio to be in it. The pedals are still there and of course the purple 4 speed hump. I do not have the fender tag, but all numbers on the core support, dash, core support, door and trunk lip MATCH! NO driveline except what you see in the pics. There is no engine or trans. This car would have originally had a Dana 60 probably with 3.54 gears, but it was swapped with an 8 3/4 rear with an unknown pumpkin/gears at some point long ago. This is such an iconic car, my plans were to leave it ratty and get it solid and through a motor and trans in it and burn rubber, but alas the oldest child has decided to go to college so off it goes possibly along with some others. It breaks my heart to let this go, but other responsibilities prevail. I have provided the best pictures I can and please know I am not hiding anything. This car needs a lot of work to be solid again. It's very obvious all floors, rear rails, quarters, rear valance, outer rockers in places, torsion bar cross member will need replaced along with certain trunk braces and outer rockers. The left front rail will need to be replaced or patched in the area where the upper control arm mounts. With all that said, it will be new underneath when done and all the metal is readily available. Discounts on it can be made through Chris at columbia parts co. Like I said it pains me to sell this car. It has a clean clear Kansas title in my name. At any rate, this car will never lose value and is a big money car if you chose to restore it back to original. Car will roll and steer easily, tires will stay up. NO brakes. Real 70 R/Ts are very hard to come by, especially 4 speed purple ones!.
