1970 DODGE CHALLENGER

MATCHING NUMBERS 340 CI MOTOR.

THIS IS AN EXTREMELY CLEAN AND SOLID CAR (BUILT IN LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA) THAT SPENT ITS LIFE IN THE DRY ARIZONA DESERT WEATHER UNTIL NOW. WE JUST RECENTLY HAD HER SHIPPED TO OHIO. WE WERE TOLD THE CAR TO HAVE HAD 3 OWNERS PRIOR TO OUR ACQUISITION. THE ORIGINAL OWNER FROM NEW UNTIL 1981, THE SECOND OWNER FROM 1981 UNTIL 1996, THE THIRD OWNER FROM 1996 UNTIL 2021, AND NOW US.

EXTREMELY RARE! PER "GALEN GOVIER" THIS IS 1 OF ONLY 2,819 340 / 4 SPEED CHALLENGERS BUILT IN 1970! CONSIDERING THERE ARE FAR LESS STILL THIS CLEAN AND SOLID WITH A MATCHING NUMBERS DRIVETRAIN - YOU ARE LOOKING AT AN EXTREMLY RARE PIECE!

THIS CAR BEARS A VERY SIMILAR APPEARANCE TO THE CHALLENGER FROM THE 1971 HIT MOVIE "VANISHING POINT."

THIS CAR IS VERY NICELY OPTIONED WITH THE ORIGINAL MATCHING NUMBERS 340 / MATCHING NUMBERS 4 SPEED WITH PISTOL GRIP SHIFTER, ROOF DRIP RAILS, DUAL EXHAUST WITH CHROME EXHAUST TIPS, WOODGRAIN CONSOLE, ETC...

EXTREMELY CLEAN AND SOLID THROUGHOUT. THE UNDERCARRIAGE METAL AND THE ENTIRE BODY IS TRULY AS CLEAN AS YOU WILL FIND. YOU CAN TELL SHE CAME FROM THE DRY DESERTS OF ARIZONA! ORIGINALLY CODE "FE5" - "BRIGHT RED" THE CAR WAS REPAINTED TO WHITE SEVERAL YEARS AGO TO RESEMBLE THE CHALLENGER FROM THE MOVIE "VANISHING POINT." PAINT SHOWS NICE AND I WOULD CONSIDER IT AN ABOVE AVERAGE DRIVER QUALITY. SHE HAS A FEW BRUSH TOUCHES ON HER FROM OVER THE YEARS. SHE IS TRULY AS CLEAN, STRAIGHT, AND SOLID, AS THEY COME COME THOUGH. THERE ARE NO BLISTERS OR BUBBLES ANYWHERE. YOU CAN TELL THIS ONE HAS HAD A VERY EASY AND PAMPERED LIFE. THIS CAR APPEARS TO HAVE ALL ORIGINAL METAL THROUGHOUT. WE CANNOT FIND ANY EVIDENCE OF ANY BODY PANEL REPAIRS OR REPLACEMENT ANYWHERE. THE METAL IS AS NICE AND CLEAN AS YOU WILL FIND THROUGHOUT!
