Default '70 Challenger RT 440

Danny's '70 Challenger RT has a .060 overbored 440 motor that puts out 425bhp. It has an auto 3-speed transmission & 3.54 rear end. The exhaust has Flowmasters with an electric cut-out.

It was a father & son project, they've had it 8 years & drive it about 1,000 miles a year.

Wow Frank, you sure can find them! I got envious and went out to see what I could shoot in my neighborhood. All I got were a bunch of beat up pickups and vans with overloaded ladder racks. I'm so depressed.

Nice find and shots Frank. Not to mention those Challenger R/T's with the 440 are sweet.

Hey! They have car meets in Lithuania, so you should be able to find something better in VA?

It's nice to see that someone actually reads that stuff! Unintended water injection probably wouldn't be a good thing?

Possibly. I'm on my laptop, so won't say. Did you notice that he has the excellent 150mph speedo?

Thanks for the comments!

Yeap...150MPH speedo was cool...didn't know they made them that tall back in the day. Hell, even some cars today only go to 120.

As a lifelong motorhead, I'm as interested in the description as in the photo, maybe moreso. I wish more posters included info like yours.
