THE DODGE CHARGER

First seen as a fastback-styled show car, the Charger was based on the new Coronet and appeared mid-way through the '66 model year. Larger than its similarly styled rivals – the Plymouth Barracuda and Ford Mustang 2+2 – the Charger came with a variety of engine options ranging from the standard 318ci V8 up to the 440 'Magnum' and 426 'Hemi'. The Charger was completely revamped for 1968, emerging with a semi-fastback body style that is widely acknowledged as one of Dodge's best ever. Like its contemporaries from the US auto industry's 'muscle car' golden age, the Charger is highly sought after by today's collectors. Again, the Charger was overhauled for 1971. Still based on the Chrysler B platform, the new car featured a multitude of stylistic changes.

THE MOTORCAR OFFERED

Completed at the factory in January of 1970 and delivered new to White Plains Dodge in White Plains, New York, this Charger 500 appears to have spent its entire life in the Northeast. Finished in Light Gold Metallic over black vinyl bucket seats, the Charger has remained largely original and well kept throughout the years. Powered by a Magnum 383ci V8 mated to a 4-speed manual transmission, the well-preserved condition of the car speaks to its careful ownership and regular maintenance over the years.

Presented here fresh from decades long tenure in Tom Ferrara's collection, it is a unique opportunity to acquire one of the meanest looking Muscle Cars in strikingly unrestored condition.
