Q: 1969-70 Dodge Charger/Challenger for sale?
Does anybody on here have one of these cars for sale in the Midwest that’s not outrageously expensive? It doesn’t need an engine, transmission, or good paint. I’m looking for a project car, but with interior (seats, seat belts, etc.) and it has to be for a few hundred, maybe a couple thousand, but that would push it a little.

A: Is this close enough? I know it’s more than your budget and it’s a Plymouth but…

Q: When will the 2010 dodge challengers be for sale?
thanks

A: It should be late September but I would expect them out later than that. I work for the factory that makes the steering gear for that vehicle, and we aren’t even scheduled to be called back to work until August. So I would expect it out about late October early November. If you want one you better get it soon, rumors have been that 2010 will be the last year for that car.

Q: How much would a pre-restored Dodge Challenger R/T 440 cost?
I am a fan of classic american muscle cars, and I want to restore one as a hobby and because I’ve always wanted one. Came across a 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T 440 today (in utter junk condition) and saw that it was posted for sale at 45000 dollars. I couldn’t believe it! This got me wondering. How much should a pre-restored Challenger cost? And don’t ask me who that person was, cause I wouldn’t know.

A: Well, a properly restored 440 R/T can fetch close to 100 grand at the big auctions. One with a hemi can go way over that. There aren’t that many of those cars out there, not like Chevelles, Camaros, Mustangs and other more common muscle cars.

Q: Dodge Charger or Challenger?
I was going to buy a project car, and have found both a 1966 Charger and a 1970 Challenger for sale. The Charger is all there and would run except for an electrical short; the Challenger is just a shell. Both are around $2000 and need to be towed. Right now, it seems to make more sense to buy the Charger, but I’ve heard that fully restored Challengers can go for quite a bit. Any advice?

A: As the owner of several Challengers over the years and still owner of one and caretaker of several more, I’d pick the ‘66 Charger. The Challenger is worth more restored to original specs but to get it there will cost $$$$. The Charger is complete and has an electrical short, you have a lot to work with and there weren’t that many built. You don’t say anything about engine or trans, but the bigger the engine the higher the value.

Q: Question on 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T with power windows rear defrost and power disc brakes. How rare is it??
I have the car for sale on ebay item #280161415338. My build sheet list these items but I can’t find one like it and have never heard of these options on an R/T. any info on this would be greatly appreciated.

A: I can tell you how many they made with each option. These figures are statistical approximations based on US figures, so it doesn’t include Canadian or Export vehicles. Likewise, it is statistically impossible to to combine figures, so you cannot combine the 3 to find out how many were made with that combo. Any time you see someone doing that with Mopars, they’re either ignorant about the numbers or they’re trying to pull a fast one on you.

Power Windows – 560
Defrost – 1134
PDB – 4702

Q: Muscle Car Projects For Sale?
I’m looking for a restoration project on Muscle cars, preferably a 1970-1974 Plymouth Barracuda, 1969-1973 Ford Mustang, 1970-1974 Dodge Challenger, 1970-1973 Chevrolet Chevelle. I live in the UK so British sites would be ideal. :) The condition of the car isn’t important as long as the chassis is fine. Thanks =D

A: E-bay has a special classic car auction on their site. You would have to check it frequently. Most of the cars go very quickly and a Barracuda will go quicker than most no matter what the condition of the vehicle.

Q: A question for Mopar guys?
I recently saw a sales ad for a 1970 Dodge Challenger. It was the R/T model with the 440 6-Pack engine.

The ad stated that the car was a true V-Code. What does that mean?

A: True V-Code Cars came with 440 6-pack engines with 390HP using gross method.

For a 70 challenger R/T 6-pack car VIN would start out JS23V0####### (Hard-Top)
or
JS27V0####### (Convertible)

For collectors, The JS will be worth more than just having a V-Code car. JS with V is next best thing having an R code.

A Hemi Challenger R/T. Which would be JS23R0####### Hard top or the ultimate JS27R0#######, a Hemi Challenger R/T Convertible (Ultra-Extremely rare) worth in the millions these days.

Q: Which will you choose in 2009, new Camaro, new Challenger or new Mustang?
The gloves are off and once again we will have the choice of three new age Muscle Cars. I’m not loyal to either Dodge, Chevy or Ford, my decision will be based purely who offers the most without forcing me to cash in my life savings. So far the Challenger has major dings in it’s armor for being way too over priced and it’s heaviness. The Mustang is will really have to one up itself since it tends to be low on the HP side and will need some sharp new looks to make people go for the 2009. The king of the crop as of today is the Camaro, what can I say. The Camaro has fresh new styling (or rather retro), will hit the market at prices we can afford, and offer respectable HP numbers, sorry Ford. Pontiac doesn’t have any plans as of yet to bring back and birds or goats but you better believe they will be watching Mustang and Camaro sales closely.
Response to just me.

Not sure if you heard but the Camaro is a definite go, scheduled to be relaesed 1st quarter of 2009. Pick up the latest Motortrend and get informed .

A: I would take the Challenger.

Q: 69 charger V10 viper engine question. more info inside!?
i have a hobby. i collect 1/24 die cast cars and i take it 1 step further by looking up factory specs like hp, tq, 0-60, 1/4 mile, weight, and top speed.

its all very acurate except i ran into a small problem.
i bought a 69 charger a while back and it has a viper V10 under the hood.
its not a dub city car, it looks 100% factory until you open the hood.
ive had it for some time now and i always just listed it under the 440×6 specs but i want to be more accurate now.

so….. assuming dodge took a complete factory spec 69 dodge charger RT and dropped a 2003 viper V10 under the hood and maybe change the tranny a bit and new street tires what would your best guess be at the 0-60 and 1/4 mile times and if you wouldnt mind also what would you guess the top speed would be?

thanks in advance and ill provide the specs so you dont have to do any researching.

i believe this is very do-able as dodge just released the challenger srt8 and the 69 charger is very close in weight. so i would guess Dodge would make this 1 of a kind 69 charger the same way with all the technology but drop the v10 in the car.

here is the car i hope you experts would take an educated guess on the numbers for: 1969 charger v10 500/5600 525/4200 0-60? 1/4 mile? top speed? 4065lbs

here on the numbers on the 08 challenger: 425/6200 420/4800 4.7 13.1@109 4137lbs top speed 175mph

and here are the numbers on the 2003 viper: 500/5600 525/4200 3.8 11.7@123 3357lbs 195mph

again im showing the viper because that is the engine that the 69 charger has under the hood
im showing the 08 challenger because its close in weight
and im just hoping i can get as many educated guess’s from true automotive enthusisits like yourselves.

again this is just a best educated guestament of what you believe the numbers would be if dodge took on this project for the sale of this high performance car using todays technology on a fully stock 69 charger meaning no weight reduction for racing, no nitro, just an upgrade of an icon.

thank you so much.

A: I like this question because of the amount of detail you give as well as the 69 Charger in my personal opinion is the greatest production car EVER. with a 426 of course.

Here would be my estimates for you
4.3 seconds 0-60
It would definetly be a 12 second car in the quarter mile
Probably 12.5 12.6

Top end speed and all these would also be determined by the rear axle ratio 175-185

Q: Pony cars coming to Nascar?
On Saturday when a NASCAR official spoke of the new NNS COTs, he beamed. It had been a long time since someone from the sanctioning body’s side of the sport was genuinely enthusiastic about the styling of a car.

And when he mentioned “Mustang,” my ears perked. A Mustang? A true American sports car for NASCAR competition? And a Challenger, too?

I must be dreaming.

“Ten-fold better than a Cup car,” the official said of the designs, which must be submitted for approval by June 26 according to the NASCAR Rule Book.

The new cars are expected to be closer to stock than any vehicle that the sanctioning body has run in the top two series since the dreaded term “aero-matching” rolled off spin-doctor tongues in 2000.

Despite opposition to a common template platform from both General Motors and Ford, NASCAR turned the Sprint Cup division into a high-dollar IROC Series where all the cars were similar — and the fans turned away. Field managers warned league principals that loss of brand identification would be detrimental not only to the manufacturers, but to the sport itself.

Manufacturers reportedly poured more than a half-billion dollars into the sport last year through factory and technical support to the teams, track support, vehicle programs and advertising. Yet NASCAR turned its back on Detroit with each generation of its race car as it morphed further away from what was on the showroom floor.

Yes, the new Sprint Cup car has proved to be safer. After the initial blow of scrapping entire fleets of the old car, the new model will be more cost efficient. The level of competition with the new car — at tracks other than intermediate and two-mile venues — has picked up considerably.

But the majority of core NASCAR fans have never embraced this car. The evidence of their displeasure can be measured in the dramatic drop in attendance, souvenir sales and television ratings, all of which started long before the economy tanked.

Now NASCAR is feeling a similar pain in its pocketbook. And the sanctioning body is responding by offering an olive branch in the form of a sleeker, sexy race car to entice the fans back to the stands. A car that hopefully will revive the “Win on Sunday, buy on Monday” mentality of fans so automakers and sponsors can continue to enjoy a return on investment in the sport.

Rather than admitting their mistake in the Sprint Cup Series, NASCAR will begin filtering elements of the Nationwide cars back to the Cup model. The cockpit is expected to remain the same to maintain the integrity of the safer vehicle but the car will take on a sportier appearance.

Currently, only Ford and Dodge will compete with models that differ from Cup. Despite Chevrolet rolling out the new Camaro to dealers, there doesn’t seem to be an urgency to promote that brand or the Malibu in NASCAR other than for pace cars at this time. Toyota has discontinued its two-door Solara, so expect the Camry nameplate in NNS.

The days when racers bought cars from the showroom floor, made a few modifications and were ready to race are over. But developing a car that appeals to both fans and manufacturers is a step in the right direction.

A: Yes, yes, yes! Come on Pony’s! I’ve been waiting for something like this.
