Few cars capture the essence of American muscle like the Dodge Charger. And while the 1970 model year was the final evolution of the second-generation Charger, this particular example being offered on Hagerty.com takes things to an entirely different level.
Offered at no reserve from The Burnyzz Collection, this fully reimagined Charger R/T blends the legendary looks of 1970 with the raw power of a modern HELLCAT engine. Bidding closes Friday, August 29 at 3:10 p.m. EDT.
Classic Roots, Modern Heart –
The car originally left the factory as a real Charger R/T, born with a 7.2-liter (440 cubic-inch) V8 under the hood. Today, it has been transformed into a true restomod beast with a supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI® HELLCAT V8 producing over 700 horsepower. Backing that monster is a 6-speed manual transmission—ensuring this Charger delivers an old-school driving experience with a whole lot more muscle than Dodge engineers could’ve imagined in 1970.
Custom Engineering from the Ground Up –
It’s not just the engine that sets this car apart. Underneath, the car rides on a Schwartz Performance chassis that includes rack-and-pinion steering, tubular control arms, adjustable coilovers, and a Moser full-floating 9-inch rear end. Stopping power comes from big Wilwood™ 13-inch disc brakes at all four corners, making sure this Charger can rein in its HELLCAT fury.
Attention to Detail –
The exterior keeps its iconic style with Finale Speed carbon fiber hood and fenders, all finished in the unmistakable Plum Crazy (FC7) paint. In the right light, you can even see the carbon fiber weave peeking through. The interior has also been upgraded for comfort and convenience, featuring air conditioning, Dakota Digital gauges, RetroSound audio, and a Kicker sound system with a trunk-mounted amp.
Auction Details –
This Charger is being offered with keys, builder documentation, and receipts that detail the extensive work invested into the build. According to the listing, the car shows no major imperfections and is ready for its next caretaker. With no reserve, the high bidder on Hagerty will take home one of the wildest blends of classic muscle and modern Mopar performance we’ve seen in a while.
For muscle car enthusiasts, restomod fans, or anyone who just loves seeing old-school style with new-school horsepower, this 1970 Dodge Charger R/T is about as good as it gets.
