The '70 Challenger/Cuda is one of the most beautiful cars ever made.
My 1968 Dodge Charger was a nice ride ! It was only a 318 with the consul 3 speed automatic floor shift. It was a left over and the dealer took the price down to $2300 in late 1968 , so I paid cash for it and owned it until 1974.
Poy Ester I had one too. A 68 black with rallye wheels, console, a/c, and Vinyl top. The 318 was not real potent at all but most people wouldn’t challenge it because it looked hot like the one on Bullit. The single exhaust was a dead giveaway. Great car.
It’s amazing how cheap these legendary cars was back then
It's hard to believe that there was a time when you had so many engine options available. I think the Challenger holds the record. In 1970 there was the 198 and 225 CID 6 cy's, 318 2V, 340 4V, 340 Six Pack, 383 2V, 383 4V 383 Magnum, 440 Magnum 440 Six Pack and the 426 Hemi. That's a whopping 11 different engines to chose from.Simply amazing
Goes for "Cuda too
A friend of mine won a 440 6 pack Challenger racing for pinks in his 340 Challenger.
@@yourhandlehere1 thats cause the 340 is a beast
@@MrCordoroi yup...he had to screw the dang tires on the rims to keep them in place. Hit it hard one day racing a vette, (well supposed to be racing a vette) the rims spun, tires sat still.....two flats at the red light.
IcantSignIn The 340 Challenger (or Cuda) was a beautifully balanced car.
I bought a 1970 Dodge Charger R/T 440 Six-Pack, 4 speed, 4.10 super trac pack, Plum Crazy with a white interior and white longitudinal side stripe in 1973. It now has about 52K miles on it. The good news is I still own it and yes it is numbers matching.
When I was in high school during the late 70s, quite a few classmates had either one of these monsters, in a whole lot of varieties! I never could afford these cars back then, nor especially now!
This is a very cool slide presentation which I've never seen before. I had a well used 70 challenger r/t about 1980, it was a lot of fun. Wish I still had it!
Man, you just want to go back to the good old days... Love this video, so nostalgic to me even though I never grew up in the 70's
I wish I was alive during that time so I could have a 70' challenger. its been my dream car since I was a kid.
I was too young back then (15) but got me a new version in 2013 and love it all the same. They actually handle much better than original, but I respect and love both!!
Me too
Those were the days, when I was in grade 10, my brother in grade 12. His buddy had a 1970 hemi Super Bee and a 70 Superbike 440. 😎
Superbird
@@Barking914 well the new one is better in every way, true, but the original will always be more badass
Love the white go-go boots...had a pair just like that. :)
You'd make a fine backup girl!
Love this video, love the Dodges, dart and all
they need a Hemi-Dart
These period videos are priceless
I bought my 70 Chargers in 80,84,and 89 and still have them today.
Great retro promo. Fast cars and good drivers.
Jim Carrol was my father or “Diamond Jim”. RIP dad! I love you forever. Mopar is in my families blood!
jeff mays you could be dodge material
Wow! That was a Great Presentation by Mopar on the new challenger and the charger! Thank You for sharing! Props to Mopar for using the girl at the end as well: I plain out missed the questions! Hahaha, Thanks Again!
Awesome days had a 73 Challenger ladies loved it
The 70 charger grille is amazing
Great vid, and a great find! Such a piece of history! Back when 1 could order a car just the way they wanted it. Dad bought a new 71 Cuda 340 3 speed and took it to Grand Spaulding Dodge for a tune. After a carb jet and performance dual breaker distributor, the car made 316 hp at the rear wheels. No other mods. He said that after that tune, he was able to obliterate s/b Camaros and Mustangs, as well as embarrass most b/b's. 69-71 were called the golden yrs for muscle cars. We'll never see the like again. Keep on post'n um!
I think we're seeing a 2nd golden age for muscle cars. Today's Mustangs, Camaros and Challengers will run circles around those cars from the 60's and 70's 11-12 second cars that get 20 MPG and don't need new plugs, points and condensers every year or a carb overhaul every 3 or 4 years. Let's face it, those days were fun, but we have to quit looking at them with rose colored glasses.
RavennaAl, long after we're drinking beer out cans made from these new cars, the oldies will just be that more fun, and valuable. Besides, when was the last time you tinkered with 1 of the new 'muscle cars'.. In truth, you can't! Part of the fun of having 1 of these old dinosaurs, is being ABLE to tinker, and fix them yourself! I happen to like my rose colored glasses :)
ravennaal you cant see with or without rose colored glasses because your head is way to far up your fucking asshole!
Great video. Love the mopar history!
Absoloute proof that the 383 was THE engine that made and gave Chrysler its reputation for performance, as it was in most of the performance models...14.2 quarter mile time and the RT with the 440 was 14.3...the 383 in Stock trim was almost always faster or at least equal...took very little in mods to make the 383 run 13's at over 100 mph...they made an easy 330-350 NET HP.
Groovy, that car really moves.
Back when they made cars. Talk about beautiful raw power! Sure got the new ones beat.
Gotta love the 70 Dodge Charger RT and 70 Dodge Challenger RT.
I had a 1972 Dodge Challenger. It wasnt a rocket but looked good in hemi orange with a black vinyl roof.
I just PRAY one day there is a time machine we could go back in time and buy the car of our dreams fully loaded brand-new!!!!!
Considering the long, deep cavity of what would become the Challenger's exterior front fascia, Dodge designers did the best job in filling it out. The front sloping hood completed the fascia's purposeful and somewhat mysterious appearance.
Nice video , Thumbs up.
I need a time machine!
1970 was a great model year for cars. The Challenger and Charger of 1970 are 2 of my absolute favorite cars of all-time. The Duster with a 340 was also a very good option.
And 69 Dodge charger and Pontiac gto
1970 was probably the zenith of the muscle car era
LOVE ME SOME MOPAR!! MOOOOPAAAR POOOOOWER!!!!! OH YEA BABY!!!
The Charger is my FAV.
I and enjoyed this video ❤❤❤❤❤
This profile pic is my 1968 charger 440 magnum car rebuild
Beautiful challenger that one
Dude the options are insane. What car today can you get loovers from factory
1:48 Lol it’s funny how the challenger was the roomiest pony car back then. Same thing with new challenger lol it’s unique compared to the mustang and Camaro
Don't know how many know this anymore, but Rowan and Martin were hired to name all of the paint colors that Chrysler used back when. The name they come up with for the Plum Crazy color that we all know and love was "Statutory Grape". For some reason it didn't make it to the final paint charts.
DODGE CHARGER 68 69 Y 70 PURO PODER AMERICANO!!!
Just to set the record straight. My Pops “Jim Carrol” never owned a challenger. However, he did own many mopars. He was sponsored by Cal Worthington, who was Worthington Dodge at that time. Jim held track records at ocir, lions, Pomona and Irwin dale raceways but of course records are meant to be broken.
Go see Cal, go see Cal, go see Cal! And his dog Spot... who might be a lion or an elephant or a zebra! I watched his late night commercials as a kid.
@@CarsandCats 😂
cool.
Im sold heading to the nearest dodge dealership!
Last summer I was leaving work and after I stopped and got gas, a guy pulls up behind me in 1970 Plum Crazy Purple Shaker Hood Restomod Challenger, he let me take a picture of it.
Painter Lava Lamp purple I don’t like it looks different not for me I prefer red or yellow
When the Challenger came out in 1970, my dad and I looked at it, along with the new for that year Chevrolet Monte Carlo. We sized them up, looked at the specs, compared the looks, and bought a 1963 Thunderbird. The Bird became our second car and was a damn sight more fun.
they really knew how to build motors back then….
Cool to know that Dart had the soundtrack..............vs the street cars
Hemi Coronets in 1966 were reportedly capable of breaking 9.7 quarter miles with slicks added. Naturally aspirated. Says a lot when you need a supercharged Demon to do that now.
I had the Challenger R/T 440+6 Pak and my bewt time was 10:93 ET.
I LOVE every one of these old videos! Something stood out this time though....
NO "real car Guy" EVER referred to Rearend Gears as *three point five five* or *four point one zero* ratios!! 😨😱😱😱😫
I hope that they weren't using THAT kind of terminology, to teach the Sales Staff how to sell Performance. The prospective Buyer might just laugh himself into a stupor, and run to the Chevy Dealer! 😖
Damn, these Babies sure looked extra Sweet, Brand New, with their "insurance adjusted" Horsepower Stats!! 👍👍
The Challenger70-71 ard The sexiest car ever.
I bay may Challenger 70 se.In 2014.440 sixpack.This car are 100% solid.Orginal shet metal..Fix sam tings tou The better.Overdrive 727 (GW) Roller cam, Alu Heads same anade staff...Love may Challenger..
gotta have a set of those optional 7" wheels!
Oh my God, 10:55! I can't believe they put this in.
omfg lol... She's pretty flat tbh
6:02 hey is that a pre-production, never offered elastoplast color-keyed bumper? It looks cool.
Maybe not. Some owners customized their cars even under warranty. It's possible the owner just liked the color matching of 1970 pontiacs
>SCAT CITY
Dat naming
I have a 1970 Challenger, I love it. Can't go anywhere without getting thumbs up! It's an R/T clone with 340. My first car was a 1969 Charger SE 383 Magnum. 1970 Charger last year far as I'm concerned. After that they got butt ugly
Love the Challenger's but hated the vinyl top.
Hey, during the last minute or so, there were words.
Anyone remember what they were? I was distracted.
There was something on my screen. 😇😍
Mom came home one day in a dark green Demon in '72, all the kids froze in their tracks, our neighbor came out with her hand over her mouth and said "Oh Jan, what happened to you?" She took it back the next day, wtf? Came home with a frickin Pontiac station wagon.
I smell a bullshit story!
Reseda Dodge--I remember seeing the Viper at that dealership (I was looking at the Neon, lol) back in the 1990s. Also remember seeing the new Dodge Ram pickups when they went full Kenworth-look. They were open until 2008, and as with any chunk of land in the L.A. area, the spot became apartments, lol. Edit: since L.A. seems to be one big film and TV set, here is a glimpse from across the street of Reseda Dodge from the skateboarding episode of CHiPs, LOL czcams.com/video/NSIcpZhi8kk/video.html
It's cool to see how these cars were marketed back then. they didn't know that a mixture of both high insurance prices (high po cars and testosterone fueled young car guys don't mix well) and the fuel crisis of 1973 is was what killed the market for these kinds of cars.
Uh the market is still alive today and Dodge hasn't changed much as they still sell both these cars.
It was actually the new emission standards that dropped compression ratios and took away the high-performance engines that totally killed the market overnight.
Imagine... it's 1970 forever AND you're a millionaire. You'd need a garage the size of a warehouse!
Scat City.. is that where Mr Regular vacations?
I wonder why the T/A hood was optional on the two R/T’s but they never made it to production
There were Challenger R/T's made (very few) with the T/A hood. Look up "ELHemi". Interesting to see a glass hood option for the Charger though.
Was there some legal reason why they slowed pictures of the races, instead of videos?
this was a slide show presentation for dealership salesmen uh salespersons.
These cars and days are gone but all the throwback cars that the big three are making Dodge is the closest to the real thing
This was before these machines where melosted by dukes of hazard and fast furious franchise
Just think a little did they know 48 years into the future that there would be a Challenger(DEMON) that would be faster than those two race cars!
These boots are made for walking. . . .
How rare is that coloured front bumber on 70 chargers
When cars where cars, I don't know what the hell they call them today
The dragstrip a Smog bound. I Wonder why?
Is that Droopy dog narrating? He's so excited 😴
Nowadays, the superB is a Skoda...
Haha, do you know that the word Škoda means damage in the Czech language?
1970 bottom waaaw !!
I'm puzzled they use stills rather than film for this promo. Watching these Mopars do the quarter in decent quality video (and with genuine sound) would have been far more entertaining - and convincing.
If you believe a '70 Buick Skylark GS 455 Stage 1 ran a >>> 14.6
Эй, эй, это не фильм, это нарезка стоп-кадров под фонограмму!
To think they used to go for 5k and not they go for 120k if their in perfect condition
4:12 Did he just say 10.1 seconds!?
10.2 in his modified dart... That's pretty damn fast.
Scat alright
Ah the good ol days when you could order a car to your specifications and affordability. Back when you had tons of options and different engines and manual or automatic transmission, rim's and tires and the list went on. Miss all that. Now it's, this is what we have, take it or not. Ugh. No thanks.
SCAT city? You mean San Francisco?
Gee, nothing like watching a drag race on a slideshow, that'll get the ole' blood a pumpin':(
Really the RT was a 440
Here the motor company aids the dealer who in turn helps the motor company. A good presentation helps the motor company get cars sold by revving up the dealer. Lamentably there are scenes in the presentation which are inappropriate and sexually suggestive. This presentation is designed with the dealer in mind and the dealer and motor company hope the presentation does not get in the hands of the customer and mainstream media. If that were to happen everyone would be embarrassed, fewer cars would be sold and less money would be made by everyone. When the dealer sells and services the car he charges the customer a few dollars more than the motor company charges him. So everyone makes money. The more cars the dealer sells the more money everyone makes. The car the dealer is selling and the motor company is building is called the new Challenger. It is smaller than the Charger but it is fast and beautiful.
I could of bought a mint condition 1970 Challenger R/T for get this.... $1,400 in 1983.... I screwed up. I also had a chance to buy a 1970 GTO 400/4 speed... for $400.. But I had already committed to buying a 1976 Vega Wagon for $400 from my sister who was moving out of the country. But I did buy a 1975 Camaro LT 350 4 bolt main 4 speed for $275... My buddy had too many tickets... My test ride in the Camaro...1st gear rubber.. 2nd gear rubber.... 3rd gear rubber... 4th gear rubber.... Then we ran out of gas and had to push it back to his house.. SOLD!!
And of course...after many tickets.. It had to go too.............
Thr track is smog bound. So watch while we smoke these tires.
Love Mopar had a '70 Challenger T/A but "Scat city"?? Oxford dictionary: Scat: droppings, especially that of mammals. Scat means: $h!+.
J Clar I think it's a music channel like Dubstep City or Rap City but for Bebop music lol😄
J Clar Too funny, was thinking the same thing when I saw that
The "scat Pak" was one of Dodge's promo slogans during that period referring to what they called their pony cars,ie. Challenger,etc. "And they can really "scat" ! was from one of the dealer commercials.It was the vernacular of the era.
Mopar or No Car
Until it rusts out of existence like a lot of them already have.
@@thebushwolf710 better than new crap ;)
I will take the charger over the challenger any day of the week body style is way better and just a beefier car racing style gas cap recessed windows I wish I could go back to 1968-1970 show room price was 3250 - 3500 for a car like that you can have my left nut 🥜
I love the 69 Charger's body style, but I still think the Challenger design was Mopar's pinnacle.
Beep.
The drag strip is smog bound. Zero irony.
Isn't scat another word for poop?!
Scat City... try not to step in it... 🤏🤷♂️🤣💩
vin diesel favorite car
What they don't say is that these cars are only good going straight. They have crap handling & braking.
which applied to 90 percent of all vehicles from that era,not just Mopars or musclecars.
kasmanien not corvette good for curve
Where's the film? Are we suppose to use our imaginations?
Puddingtang .... These were low budget production, informational shows for car salesmen of the time. They had to distribute these to dealers across the country. Would have cost too much to film live action.
I thought scat was poop
How do you make the styling of a 70 Charger look bad? Park a 70 Challenger next to it.
Funny, in this video Dodge calls the Challenger a Pony Car, yet all the MOPAR guys says it's always been a Muscle Car, not a Pony Car, because it's a boat on wheels compared to the Camaro and Mustang.
Hell nah charger looks better
WHATS UP WITH THIS MAGNUM 440 BULLSHIT WHY DIDNT THEY PUT HEMIS IN THESE OLD MOPARS?
they did but $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. 440 was better bang for the buck
The 440 was a better street engine.
