The first car I bought was right after high school. A 1970 Dodge Challenger RT/SE with a 383 Magnum with some work to the engine. I had to borrow this pic from the net as I don't know where mine are and mine didn't have the back window louvers. Later on I re-did a 1976 Chrysler Cordoba with a 440 magnum and slight mods because it was a daily driver................

very cool Jim..i haven't had many mopars,a 70 and 71 dart,and 69 roadrunner..my brother is a big mopar fan and currently has a 68 satellite race car and a big block converted 70 dart swinger.

That Swinger has got to be a monster. Lots of horse for a light car.

it was..lots of torque..parked for a few years now awaiting restoration..

torque matters...........

Awesome ride! I think that the 1970 Dodge Challenger was the best of the Challenger/Barracuda breed.

i agree..love the e bodies,especially the challenger..

I had an RD350, but always wanted a purple H2 Mach IV, 750cc 2-stroke triple with pipes.... Screamer.

very cool..

my favorite roadrunner.mine was a 69 383 4spd car..
not my pic..

Back in the early 1980s, I was looking to pick up another Mustang, and was specifically looking for a convertible. I stumbled upon one that was a 1969 GT, the last year for the GTs. At the time, I did not know they ran the GT package through 1969 as the Mach 1 was king. The car had a 289 in it, so I knew something was definitely not quite right. I asked the owner what happened to the original engine and he led me into his garage. Sitting in the back corner was a complete 428ci engine, and the owner said I could take it with the car. I checked the VIN on the car and sure enough was the Q, indicating it was a big block vehicle. I told the owner I was serious about buying it for the asking price, $4,000 and asked him if he could give me two hours. I called my buddy and asked him if I was looking at the real deal, but he replied that it had to be a fake as it was a very rare combination.

I called back the owner and politely declined a 1969 Mustang GT convertible with a 428 for $4 grand.

that is a shame,they do exist,i know of a black one in a collection up here..even rarer is the big block coupe..
