Details
This 1970 HEMI Charger R/T is one of 112 built in 1970 and one of 56 built with the 727 TorqueFlite automatic transmission. The car also was equipped with the A32 Super Performance Axle Package with a Dana 60 rear end, heavy-duty suspension, power steering, power font disc brakes, radio, heater, wood-grain dash, leather bucket-seat interior, vinyl roof and increased cooling with a factory-installed transmission cooler. The color is FF4 Light Green Metallic with a VF1 green vinyl roof. The car was stripped of all paint and completely refinished, including the underside, in 1990 by Rick's Auto Body in Conway, PA. The Charger was reassembled by Rick's Auto Body with a new vinyl roof. The front and rear bumpers were chrome-plated. The brake lines, fuel lines and brake hoses were all replaced, as were the gas tank and sending unit. The front suspension was completely rebuilt with all new TRW parts and bushings. New stock shock absorbers were installed in the front and rear. The brake system had a new Mopar master cylinder installed. The front and rear brakes were completely rebuilt with new parts. A new Mopar NOS power steering box and pump were installed. The engine and transmission were removed for rebuilding in January 1997 by Edward Eckenrode of Pittsburgh, PA. The original matching-numbers HEMI engine was completely rebuilt with Ross custom-made .030 oversize 11:1 pistons. The crank was turned to .020 undersized and the assembly rebalanced. A new Mopar stock street HEMI hydraulic lifter cam was installed, as were a new high-volume oil pump, stock oil pan windage tray and pickup. The car received a new set of 1970 original Carter carburetors, as well as a complete stock exhaust system, including the manifold heat tubes. A new Mopar reproduction battery was installed in 2006. The transmission (1969 model) was completely rebuilt to factory specifications with an original HEMI torque converter installed. An electric fuel pump and multi-spark ignition were added to improve starting function, as this car was driven very little. It was kept in a heated garage. From the Frank Tiegs Collection.
