1971 Dodge Charger RT 426 HEMI ZERO Rust 14940 Miles
One of only 63 Hemi R/T's built in 1971, and one of only 30 four speeds* One of one Hemi 4 speed* Numbers Matching 426 HEMI* Numbers Matching 4 Speed Manual* ZERO Rust, All Original Sheet Metal* 14,940 Original Miles*Original Interior* Original Tires
Starting underneath, nearly every steering and suspension component is original. The rubber bushings were replaced along with one lower ball joint, but with the car's low mileage everything else was in excellent shape. It's suspended on its original torsion bars and leaf springs. The original Hemi K frame is up front while the original 3.54 geared Dana 60 is out back. The transmission was checked and detailed with proper stencils and paint daubs. The rotors were slightly turned and reassembled with rebuilt calipers and new pads. The floor pans were so clean that painting them body color seemed natural, and they really pop against the new date coded exhaust, new fuel tank and new metal brake and fuel lines—parts that any serious restoration would change out.When it came time to flip it back over, the engine compartment, trunk and jambs were finished before the body was reassembled. The panels went back on and fit like a glove—they do that when you have the originals! Many hours were spent block sanding the car to perfection before they were coated in Gold Metallic, a new color for 1971. It's super rare, with only three R/T's known to the '71 R/T registry, and it's the only Hemi powered example! Up front, the original grilles were detailed and reassembled into the rechromed original bumper above the original chin spoiler. Fresh decals went down on the hood and wrapped around the car's sides. The car's original glass was reinstalled with polished stainless trim. Sharp eyed Mopar enthusiasts will spot the 1970 Go Wing on the decklid—this was an early car and got a leftover piece.
