That truck is pretty radical and has a lot of Mopar hints. Is the HEMI a 426 or one of the Red Rams 392, 354 ect. That truck is a real looker and demands your attention on the street. Take care and enjoy that sweet ride.

 

It's a KB 500 inch (426 style) and it's way too much to handle on the street.

It will light up the tires and fry them off in 4th gear from an idle with about 1/2 pedal. As a result, it has about 20 miles on it.

But I still love it!

You should see it up close. Washers are all pentastars, as is the side mirror, etc. I think I'm going to start trailering it to shows next year.

Thanks again!

My stepdad got lucky. He got his 1970 Challenger in '79 for $90. 1970 Challenger R/T HEMI 426 convertible with the 4spd pistol grip, which was somehow upgraded to a 1971, actually making it like one of a kind. Though it needs a hell of a lot of work at the moment.

 

Do you have any pictures of this car, please post. I'd love to see it in its present shape.

 

Wes, very lucky indeed, There were less that 10 made and I've taken pictures of 4 of them.

 

It's titled as a 1971 model, but it was traced back to where it started life in June of 1970... it was a late 1970 that was factory rebuilt into a 1971.

As far as pictures go, I will have them as soon as possible. Though be warned, the condition is rough, and the car is quite bare at the moment.
