1970 Dodge Challenger Convertible
Your Subtitle text
1970 Challenger Convertible 500 Stroker! This Challenger started out with a 318 2bbl, power steering, power brakes, automatic transmission, air conditioning and lighting group in 1970.
When I got the car it had a 1974 440 engine: low compression (8.0:1) with a very mild cam. It probably had all of 250 Horsepower at 10 mpg or less! With that mileage I want the performance that should go with it, I had the 440 rebuilt to a 500 STROKER, not too radical as I enjoy driving the car and do not want to lose the reliability.
When I was a kid I had always wanted to buy a Challenger. At that time my Dad would not let me get one saying it was to powerful and that maybe one day I would be able to. It has been a long time waiting. In order to get the Challenger I had to sell my last project car, a 1967 Camaro RS Convertible, numbers matching! This car had been a Calendar Car and even in Car Craft Magazine! Oh well....
