Aaron65 at Curbside Classic defends his reasoning as to why the 1968 Charger is the most beautiful car from the muscle car era. I can find no flaws in his explanation. There’s not one bad angle. More pics after the jump!
The Charles Kee Estate Sale was May 8th and 9th in Brothers, Oregon and it was a blast to attend. They had 1000 boxes of parts for sale and 200 cars, most of it Mopar! I was there from the front lines bidding and buying parts along with a bunch of other Mopar fanatics. The cars ended up going for pretty cheap, most at not much more than scrap prices with a few exceptions. The parts were a little more expensive but lots of treasures were to be found in the hundreds and hundreds of banana boxes that Charles Kee used to store stuff. It is hard to show the scale of how many parts were here but we tried with this picture.
Finally! Street Legal is reporting that Dodge has confirmed that the Hellcat will debut in August in a Challenger SRT. The Charger SRT Hellcat will be released in January. Not much official info about the supercharged 6.2L Hemi but Street Legal has done some educated speculating.
Big news today out of Chrysler Fiat: “the SRT family of vehicles will be consolidated under the Dodge brand.” We never understood why SRT was spun off in the first place, so this makes sense to us.
So how about the next five years? Well, the Dart will finally get the SRT treatment for 2016. We all also see an all-new Journey in 2016. Then, in 2018 we will see an all-new Charger and Challenger. Meanwhile, the Avenger will be killed off this year and the Grand Caravan will go away in 2016. Press release after the jump! Via Autoblog

This heavily optioned, mostly stock, Hemi-powered 1970 Challenger is featured in Hot Rod. The engine was beefed up internally to add durability but most everything else is pretty much how it was from day one. I’m kinda liking the Dark Burnt Orange Metallic paint. Read the story of this E-body at Hot Rod. More pics after the jump!
Barn Finds has discovered a not-too-rough survivor Hemi Challenger on eBay.

Yep. The Challenger name first appeared in 1959 as the Dodge Silver Challenger. The limited production any-color-as-long-as-its-silver two door was quite striking for its time. Hooniverse has selected it as a nominee for its Obscure Muscle Car Garage section. Cast your vote now. More pics after the jump!

When your father hosts a Youtube show called Hot Rod Hunt, you know good things will follow. Rick Moore purchased a barn find 1970 Charger R/T and gave it to his 13 year old son, Ricky, who’s favorite car is the 68-70 Charger. As it was a drag car, the 440 and 727 have very few miles and the car has only limited modifications. Ward Cleaver could learn a few things from this guy! Find the story at Street Legal TV.
