Dodge Chargers produced in the early ‘70s remain some of the most popular muscle cars these days, and this is why so many people search for abandoned models and barn finds they could end up restoring and bring back in tip-top shape.
But those who want to keep things simple and just want an old Charger that looks like a brand-new car can simply buy a model that has already been restored.

Such as this 1970 Dodge Charger R/T, for example, as it’s been part of a thorough restoration project that brought it back in perfect condition.

RK Motors, who is now selling the car on eBay, explains this is actually an authentic Six Pack Charger R/T, but it looks so good because it received a detailed restoration in every single part of the car.

For example, in addition to the 440ci (7.2-liter) RB V8 engine, which works just like new and features the period-correct Six Pack induction, the Charger also comes equipped with the correct A833 4-speed manual transmission and an optional Tic-Toc tachometer.

The car is painted in the period Go Mango paint with a tail stripe, while the interior features the same black vinyl and bucket seats like the original models produced 50 years ago.

Furthermore, the car comes with power steering and a Pistol Grip shifter and runs on 15-inch Chrysler Rallye Wheels.

The odometer indicates 57,660 miles (92,794 kilometers), but this isn’t necessarily a surprise since it’s not a restomod. In other words, it’s not a new engine, but you can be sure everything works just as it is expected to work.

The bad news is that many people who read this won’t be able to afford this awesome charger. RK Motors sells the cas for $120,000 on eBay, so it’s one rather expensive Charger that we’ll just drool over with no chance to own.
