Welcome to FEBO. So what is your price range for this "mint" car so you don't waste people's time? You have several preferences there which is going to add to the cost. Good luck with your search.

Welcome aboard. If you are going to dream, you might as well dream high. Good luck. You can probably have better luck contacting a few of the major, high quality restoration shops. Many of them have connections and possibly one in stock that a customer backed out on or they can locate a car and build it to your specs.

If it must have ac then it won't be a six pack car. I'm in south Florida and we need ac in the summer. Where are you?

 

[TC_Cuda]

Good luck with your search. Why this particular model? Did you have one before?

Just wondering, we all like a good story...

Welcome to the site from the Motor City! Done is definitely the best way to buy them if you can swing it. Best of luck with your search.

Also in South FL.
I've seen 6 pack cars with vintage a/c, so it is possible, and that's okay.

I sold my '70 Roadrunner 440+6 earlier this year (rotisserie resto) and want another Mopar bb. Also looking at GTX and RR's. This was my first new car that I ordered from dealer and was delivered to me in Nov. 1969. Under it is the RR I recently sold.

I'd like to keep purchase price under $60k.

Welcome and good luck with your search. I see NY plates and November snow, what part of NY were you? Very nice B-bodies , my favorite color on them.

 

[moparlee]

That was one buuuuuutiful 70 RR you had and somebody got a sweet ride when you sold it.

You should be able to find a really nice Challenger with your budget. Good luck!

I grew up on Long Island and the GTX 4 speed was my daily driver. Had snow tires mounted on extra rims for winter.

"No excuses" usually means restored to factory specs with great documentation. You won't find aftermarket A/C added to a car like that. So if you want factory A/C on your Challenger R/T you will need to look at 383 4bbls and 440 4bbl (for 70 only, with an automatic). 71 will bring in the 340 4bbls as an alternative. Good luck.

great RR...i have a B7 69. My Aunt lived in Jericho for years. Good luck on the hunt. and check out the 2 resources I gave you.

Thanks for the info. I'm always looking at carsonline, but the challenger website was new to me.
Didn't find anything of interest there.

Good luck in your search for a Challenger RT.
Owned a 70 bb 440-6 Challenger with a factory shaker back in the 70's. Awesome Challenger. I really miss that car!

Sendt you a PM with a few cars for sale.

 

[Florida Guy]

I may have found a car. I will update when I'm sure.
Thanks for all the replies.
