Reader’s Rides: Ryan Dean’s 1970 Dodge Challenger Convertible

It’s refreshing to see an E-body convertible with its original small block drivetrain. This purple 4-speed 318 car is all numbers matching, restored about 12 years ago. It’s one of just 78 convertibles made with this engine and tranny combo in 1970. Great pics from its current home in Boca Raton, Florida.

2009 Dodge Challenger Drag Pak With Zero Miles on eBay

You’re looking at #76 of just 100 Drag Pak Challengers built in 2009. So what’s so special? This one has ZERO miles on it. Almost five years after it rolled off the assembly line, this Drag Pak Challenger is totally factory fresh and unmolested! The intake is still sealed in plastic! These cars are not street legal and cannot be made street legal. And they are missing lots of stuff–such a a final drivetrain. Still, think of the possibilities here. And the Buy It Now is just $47,900. So… would you preserve it or race it? Tons more pics after the jump, including the eBay auction text.
