1971 Dodge Challenger R/T Description

This is a real JS23 R/T and factory born FC7 Plum Crazy Purple car, factory 4-speed. Documented with original build sheet. Has folder of receipts too. It is one of the hottest looking 71 Challengers. Look at it, it has all the goodies, great colors and stance. Fire it up, it sounds just as hot! EXTERIOR: The Plum Crazy paint is show quality. The metal flake is laid out real nice, clear coat is polished like a mirror. No ugly... vinyl top. The white R/T stripes really pop. Body is clean, straight and fits nice. The sides of the car are like a mirror, I see the reflection of the ground perfectly. Has spoilers front and back. The rear window louvers are original. It also has chrome sport mirrors, pop up gas cap and rear mounted antenna. The 15 inch Rallye wheels are in excellent condition. Up front the grill is all detailed, bumper and trim on the front of the hood and hood pins look new. The eyebrows on the front of the fenders look like they're good original. In back the bumper is rechromed, tail light panel is restored. Has original rear window louvers. Nice jambs, weatherstrips and sill plates are replaced. Windshield is original. INTERIOR: Inside the car is real nice too. I'm sitting in it now. Cushions in the seats are new which feels good and makes the upholstery fit real nice. New white upholstery. All the plastic trim including door and side panels are excellent. The dash pad is very nice but has some cracks by the speaker, you dont see them sitting in the car. It has the rallye gauge cluster and original radio. Instrument area is not cut or broken. Has Dynamat under the new carpet. Has purple embroidered floor mats. Overhead the headliner and visors are excellent, has the shoulder belts. Really, I'm sitting in this car and it is very impressive. Fits nice, not beat up. Of course the Pistol Grip sitting on the floor is a super cool feature. ENGINE COMPARTMENT: This 440 engine rocks, listen to it on our video! Has a giant Holley carb, it's dressed up with some aluminum finned valve covers and a little chrome. The engine bay is all purple, nice clean metal. I don't see anything damaged or rusted. It has power steering and power brakes. TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Rock solid metal, painted real nice. Has a plaid trunk mat, new weatherstrip and correct brackets for the spoiler. UNDERSIDE: It was media blasted underneath. Floors look to be clean original metal. Has frame connectors. Upgraded with disc brakes at all 4 wheels, has e-brake. Upgraded Tremec 5-speed teans, new driveshaft and 3.55 posi rear. Recent dual exhaust with stainless mufflers and correct square tips. New shocks, air shocks in back. New sway bar in front. Everything about this R/T is exciting. The looks, sound and especially driving it. Remember, it's not a clone. Documented with vin and build sheet.
