Carlisle Auctions Has Two Great Challengers Selling This Weekend

Which one do you want in your garage?


The classic Dodge Challenger is an iconic car that Mopar designed to be intentionally bold, and ready to take on competitors. It was Dodge's answer to the pony car, and put Ford and GM on notice. In modern days, these cars are at the top of wish lists for American muscle car enthusiasts and car collectors. At the upcoming Carlisle Auction, two amazing examples from the 1970s will be up for grabs. Which one would you put in your garage?

1970 Dodge Challenger

Pretty in Plum Crazy Purple, this 1970 Dodge Challenger is powered by a 383 cubic inch Magnum V8 engine, which is backed by an automatic transmission. It has bucket seats with center console, and factory air-conditioning. See it here.

1971 Dodge Challenger

Finished in Purple over a White interior, this Challenger is ready for show and go. It is powered by a numbers matching 318 cubic inch V8 engine, which is backed by a Torque Flite 3-speed automatic transmission. It has power steering, power brakes, a new water pump, and rolls on Rally wheels with Futura tires. See it here.
