This 1970 Dodge Charger is scary

The new Dodge Charger is among us, thin, refined and … silent. In fact, in the price list, besides the electric one, there is also a version powered by a six cylinder petrol enginebut know that if you ever buy an average Texan it will still mock you.

NOSTALGIA FOR THAT V8… Instead, choose the electric version – 670 horsepower in the Daytona Scat Pack configuration – and when on the one hand you will “burn” “0-100” in 3.3 seconds, the same as the Texans, and maybe not only them, will continue to mock. you. In the future, Dodge plans a more powerful Charger than the Hellcat. Too bad the juice, the soul of the model, that is, does not exist Terrible V8 capable of scaring adults and bewitching with its brutal voice.

WOW IMPACT. To cheer us up, however, there’s a new and less-than-ideal twist on the theme. The American was successful Final Speed, which is located in the Yukon. Starting from one Dodge Charger 500 from 1970 – that of Dominic Toretto in Fast & Furious, so to speak – the tuner has created something dangerous but very attractive, like a very bright light for moths. The chassis has been modified, strengthened and refined by Salvaggio Auto Design, while the shell that sits on top is the same as the original, but. made entirely of carbon, removed and left blank. The effect is magnetic to say the least, accentuated by the dimensions of the Charger boat.

COST SERVICE. To keep the Charger on the road are 18” rims with 335/30 rear tires and a limited slip differential, as well as adjustable brakes, sealed and perforated Wilwood brakes with brake booster. Extreme precautions? Naah. Under the bonnet is the 6.2 V8 Hellcrate, the same V8 you find in the modern Hellcat Redeye, with 807 HP and 972 Nm of torque, all managed by Tremec manual gearbox. Other goodies are two handmade exhausts, Recaro leather seats with “clima” and the latest hi-fi. The Ultimate Speed ​​Build was auctioned off a few days ago for $350,000a very high profile but almost justified for such an attractive Charger.
