Dodge Challenger: Old and New
Movie Mopar of the Week: 1970 Dodge Challenger from Death Proof
Tarantino loves to reference other movies in his films, and the white 1970 Dodge Challenger from Death Proof overtly referenced the Challenger from Vanishing Point. All E-bodies have frameless windows so they had to weld in frames for the “masthead” stunt. You can check out the whole chase scene with the ’69 Charger after the jump!
Tons of Cool Mopars in New Pennzoil Commercial
Saw this on TV while getting a haircut last week. Love the old Challenger and ’66 Satellite convertible! Check it out after the jump!
Win This 1970 Plymouth ‘Cuda!
Here’s another great car being raffled off for a great cause. Alzheimer’s is a debilitating disease and the Brevard Alzheimer’s Foundation is there to help. They are raffling off this awesome ’70 Cuda to raise money and there are just seven days left to buy tickets! This ‘Cuda was featured on Hot Rod Magazine TV and has a 2002 Dodge Viper GTS Engine mated to 6 speed Viper transmission. Check out some of the cool Mopars they have raffled off in the past!
Movie Mopar of the Week: 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T from Vanishing Point
Could Vanishing Point be the most famous Mopar movie of all time? I would say yes. Not a whole lot to add. If you want to read about the cars used in the movie this seems like a good resource. Or if you want, just watch the grande finale after the jump!
Dodge Charger and Challenger Most Popular Muscle Cars
Most popular in terms of search traffic, anyway. That’s according to Cars-On-Line, who claims that 18.5% of buyers are searching for Chargers and 15.7% are searching for Challengers. This seems a bit high to me, but hey, there is no question that Chargers and Challengers are popular (nevermind the fact many people seem to confuse the two). I assume, too, that this would include late-model Chargers and Challengers. Anyway, I showed you that awesome Hemi Charger yesterday, so how about this beautiful purple 4-speed 1970 Dodge Challenger RT/SE, for sale via Cars-On-Line.
Stunning 1970 Plymouth Hemi ‘Cuda on eBay
The seller lists this heavily documented, fully restored Hemi ‘Cuda as “investment grade” and it seems to have everything going for it except the original engine. I love the Ivy Green Metallic with brown leather interior, but I’m guessing many collectors might find this combo less desirable than some of the high impact colors available that year. The car is listed at $189,900. Not chump change! More pics after the jump and be sure to check out the auction at eBay!
Update: didn’t make the reserve so it’s still on sale at the dealer’s website.
