One-Owner 1970 Dodge Challenger SE - Would You Cut it Up
 
1 Attachment(s)
Hi All,

So the question of the day is would you buy it and cut it up ?

Me - I would Hemi-Swap it and do a modern bolt on suspension, maybe a dakota digital dash and clean up the interior a little.

Perfect Candidate!
 
I think this is perfect candidate for a Pro-Touring treatment! Not an RT and came with a 318... so a modern 392 Scat Pack with bolt-on suspension upgrades, big brakes and 18" rallye wheels.

Lose the fog lights but leave the exterior green, repair rust where needed but blend into the original paint. Repop or repair trim as needed and it needs a new black vinyl top but I'd delete the SE badges AND PUT A BLACK INTERIOR IN IT!

Unbolt the front fenders and remove the VIN tag/fill holes and the make everything in the engine compartment and the firewall like new with the new powerplant. And I might consider replacing the radiator overflow jug...

A Scat Pack 6.4L's 485hp/475lbft would move this thing down the road nicely with a matching TREMEC 6-speed!

I like this plan!

Looks like we are on the same page.

I am kinda hoping "Skip" jumps on this one and sends it to Mike Copeland at Arrington Performance. It's exactly what he needs in his life right now.

Simple answer....YES!

Looks like it sold for a very nice price just wish I was in the market as I regret selling mine to the Roadster shop.
