1971 Dodge Charger RT
05.02.09
Finding a rare Mopar just isn't as easy as it used to be. Cars that were once abandoned and sitting in plain view have long been snatched up by enthusiasts and collectors, forcing those of us seeking a car to restore or race to search harder than was once necessary. Scrap yards used to be a place where we could find a potential project as well, but very few scrap yards have any cars worth building these days. Televised auctions haven't helped the average enthusiast much either, as they can convince potential sellers that their Slant-Six-powered four-door Belvedere is worth the hundreds of thousands that the Hemi model sold for. With all this working against us, how are we to find old Mopars we can restore at a reasonable cost? The answer for many of us, including Dewey Jones, is to enlist the help of our family and friends. If you're like us, you look for Mopars wherever you go. It's just fun to find hidden treasure, and road trips certainly go by quicker if you're occupied looking in the woods, carports, and barns along the way. But even if you drive hundreds of miles, the odds are you'll miss something unless you have some help. This is why Dewey Jones of Hamilton, Ohio, appreciates his family helping him search for cool cars, and family help is exactly how he landed a deal on the '71 Charger R/T you see here.

Dodge Charger?
Jul 03, 2006 by eric24696 | Posted in Buying & Selling
I found a 72' Dodge Charger for $3000 and i can do a lot of work myself on it. What is it worth when it is all fixed up?
As a Muscle car collector I can tell you that True documented muscle cars are bringing high dollars, they are bringing in premium prices. The muscle cars I buy and sell are worth between $150'000 and $350'000. Who said they are not at a premium. In fact, I just sold my very rare Yenko Chevelle because the prices are so good. Here's the hitch, most people can't or won't lay out that much for an original that they probably shouldn't drive. So the next best thing is to build a clone. How do you clone? You get a cheap version of the car you like and build it up as a tribute to a high dollar Muscle car. Now, you have something cool and something you can drive. Clone car prices are on the rise which makes the originals even worth more to collectors. Now, I am assuming yours is a plain Jane type. Production numbers run like this: 2dr cpe 7'803, 2dr ht 45'361, 2dr SE ht 22'430. The highest hp engine was the 440 and was rated @ 280 hp. Nothing there to attract many collectors, thus lowering the value to them. I know, for all you Mopar nuts out there, the 440 six-pack was offered in the brochure, but was canceled before initial production. I need more info as to what might be special about your particular car. Is it a Rallye? 440? How many original miles? I will give you the high, low and middle ground. If you clone something cool or turn it into a street rod, you could catch the right crowd and it could sell for up to 3 times the restored value. Restored, with the limited info you gave us to go on.... Assuming that you took everything apart and did it right, Low is $10'000, high $16'000. Factory cars with 280 hp at the most just aren't anything that special when it come to collecting them. Unless there is something unique about them. Okay, if your car is one of the 7'803 2dr cpe, and has tons of options and was the right color and..... well you get the drift, then it might stand a chance of being a well sought after car in the future. My advice, have fun with it now, worry about the rest later. Forget the prices they quote you out of books. Look around your area of state. What are similar cars selling for. Look on line, look at auctions. DON'T take my word as gold, because you didn't give us very much info to go on. What's the most you would pay for a car from the 50's? $150'00? $250'00? Barrett Jackson Auction sold Howard Hugh's car for $1.5 million, because it was something special. So, do the research, break your Vin down, and your data plate, check out how rare it actually is, then you'll have a better idea.

How is a 2006 dodge charger in the winter?
May 01, 2007 by Nick A | Posted in Dodge
I live in iowa and we can get a lot of snow in the winter. I know the charger is rear wheel drive but i was told buy some people that it has traction control and it helps in the winter. What are your thoughts on the performance of a new dodge charger in the winter?
RWD Chargers, Magnum's & 300's are pretty stable in winter driving conditions with ESP and if you add 4 winter tires to the car.
However, the Dodge Charger has come out with a AWD version for 2007 like the Magnum & 300's. These AWD versions are incredible in the snow and ice!

Does the Dodge Charger and the Dodge Caliber have bad blind spots?
Mar 18, 2008 by t.yeomans | Posted in Dodge
My mom is letting me get a car this summer, and she is only going to let me get one if they don't have horrible blind spots. She is going to let me get either the Dodge Charger or the Caliber. Right now, she has a PT Cruiser, and it has the worst blind spots ever! Please give me the best info you can. I am leaning more towards the Dodge Charger!
for thos ethat like the pt cruiser...I say it is fine if they are enjoying that type of body style...but I believe it is dodges worse vehicle to be on the road...as for the charger ...it is possibly the best car for you out there ...it has an excellent safety rating(even car&driver magazine agrees)..but for a new driver it is a fun and easy car for all to drive..it is one of the best combinations of fun safety and ride and drive around...and as all vehicles may have blind spots....I believe you will find charger is even good to see rear ..side ..and front views for all...the rear glass is a little more slant view from rear view but is set to the ground right by thhe body to see very good all around...pt cruiser on the other hand is a driving hazard for operator as well as everyone else on road...even from front windshield it is rediculous they cause accidents...it reminds me of the earliest cars that you can barely see out of them enough to do anything but guess your distance to obsticles or other motorist..she should do you and us all a favor and trade it in and get you and her both a new dodge..they offer a big discount when doing this ..and you both will be happier and safer...good luck and hope you get charger...you will love it...
