Q: Can a 1970 Dodge Charger can definitely beat any sport cars?
A kid at school told me that the 1970 Dodge Charger has 1200 mph , WHAT!!!!???????! how can this be true , i mean its a 1970 muscle car with a few horse power . What the heck ; is there such thing?

A: Yes, there is such a thing,but very few of any old American muscle cars have that kind of h.p. To give you a clear idea of what 1200 horses is like; watch “The Fast and Furious”.After watching the last racing scene in the movie, you’ll have a better idea of how a Charger(custom built) responds to 1200hp. Back in the 60’s and “early” 70’s,American stock sports cars ranged between 300-400 h.p. These cars ruled the streets,even through the 80’s. In the early 90’s, things changed. The Japanese sports cars made history by becoming a new threat to racing.

Q: What is the total cost of importing a 1970 Dodge Charger to Malaysia?
I very love the 1970 Dodge Charger, i wanted to know the tax rate and total cost of importing this car to Malaysia?

A: An arm, a leg, most of your ribcage, your right ear, and half your hip, AFTER you find one like the other poster said. Fairly rare car these days.

Q: how much does a 1970 dodge charger go for?
im looking around for a dodge charger, somewhere close to 1970. within maybe a 5 year range. how much should i expect to pay to get one that is fixed up and ready for the road? how much should i expect to pay to get one in need of some new parts?

A: you wont find one that’s road ready and that doesn’t need any repairs for less than 35-50 thousand that’s in really good shape,my neighbor owns one that he bought brand new back in late 1970 an its a hemi car,and he,s been offered more money for it than his house is worth,if you find any kind of a big block or a small block cars that is in good shape expect to pay around 30 k and up on buying it and that would be really cheap right now,good luck.

Q: What would be the best 440 to put in a 1968 or 1970 Dodge Charger?

Do you know any websites with any pre-built engines? Thank you Dodge Man… I appreciate your help.

A: their is no certain amount of horse power for those engines they made them that had as much as 375 all the way up to 400 and more.if you want a new one or rebuilt go to this site and see what they offer, they got them in many different styles, you got to pay for what horse power you want these days,check this site out,it should answer some of your questions on it,good luck,http://www.440source.com/

Q: 1970 Dodge Charger front springs and brakes?
hi there, i was wondering if anyone knew what i could do here.. i bought a project 1970 dodge charger about 3 weeks ago and the previous owner said he installed new brake pads [drum brakes on all 4 corners] but when i push the pedal, it makes a squishy noise, goes to the floor, and just comes right back up. it is also leaking at the firewall where the pedal goes into. i’m probably thinking this guy didn’t bleed the system, or the master cylinder is out. how could i tell if it’s either or? and how do you bleed a drum brake system on this car? and why is it leaking in area? [only leaks when you press the pedal down] so right now, i have no brakes on the car. the e-brake doesn’t work either. and my last question, me and a few others were looking at the front suspension and noticed there isn’t any springs, my father owned a ‘69 back in the late 70’s and my friend’s father owned a ‘68 back then too, they couldn’t remember if it had front springs or not, theres no cupping area for a spring?

A: The master Cylinder is shot, It’s is leaking because the O-ring on the piston has rotted away. There are rebuild kits avalible for these at Napa and other autoparts stores, however it may be most cost effective and worth more of your time if you where to convert at least the front of the car to front power disk. There are kits avalible, just search on the web or check out any of the sources in Mopar Muscle, or action mopar. the brake system bleeds like any other system. You just need to turn the bleed valve on the wheel cylinder. As far as the spring question, These cars use torsion bars for thier front springs. It’s the long bar that runs from the wheels to the center of the front of the car. You adjust these with a large socket and a ton of pressure. Make sure you completely understand how torsion suppention works prior to doing anything with these bars as serious injury can occur.

Q: is a 1970 dodge charger Second Edition hard on gas?
I think the question asks itself LMAO..

Is a dodge charger hard on gas, and if it is how much MPG do you get usually, and how much money does it cost you in gas a month if you could estimate or just tell me :)

A: it depends on the engine and gear ratio it has in it,the 318 cars wasn’t to bad on gas,about 16-17 on the highway with them and on the big block cars around 12-15 that was it,less if the engine is built up some in it,i wore a 70 charger out going back and forth to florida in it so many times,good luck.

Q: what’s better a 1970 dodge charger 500 or 1970 dodge charger r/t?
p.s is there just an 1970 dodge charger not 500 or r/t,and what’s all the kinds of 1970 dodge charger
and whats the difference between them

A: they did build a plain old charger nothing special about it and it had a bench seat in it with the automatic on the column,there’s actually several different versions of it that was made because back then people had the option of ordering what ever they wanted on a car,a friend of mine has one that is an r/t model that has a bench seat and is automatic on the column,they built this with 4 different engine options also you could get a 318 which was a base model car or you could get a 383 or a 440 or a 426 hemi engine in it and each engine had other options available to make it run better also,check this web page out that im sending you it has a real good history of the chargers and what all they came with and what all they could be bought with,good luck, http://www.edmunds.com/dodge/charger/history.html

Q: I was looking to restore a 1970 Dodge Charger and then sell it. Any ideas as to how much I can make?

A: as rule of thumb on restoring a vehicle you only get back about 2/3 of what you put in to it so you wont make no money on it,unless its given to you and someone gives you the parts and supplies about half of the labor free of charge,there’s not to much money to be made on a restored car,people are looking for original cars with good paper work and original documentation on them,the last one i restored i lost about 8 grand on it when i sold it,good luck.

Q: What is the factory speaker setup for a 1970 Dodge Charger?
Speaker locations, sizes, etc…

A: The center of the dash would have a 4×10 speaker if it has one.

If the car has the small speakers at the outer ends of the dash they would be 3.5 inch speakers. But not all 3.5 speakers will fit, some are too deep.

The rear speakers are 5×7 inches

Q: Does anyone know where I could find a 1970 Dodge Charger for cheap cash?

A: My guess would either be on e-bay,swap meet, Hemmings(not necassarily cheap) or on someones farm stored in a barn.

Q: What car is beter a 1970-72 chevelle or a 70s charger?
what car is viewed as more of a badass car. like when you hear the word charger people think wow thats a nice muscle car. But what car is thought of as more bad ass ? i like them both i just dont know either to go mopar or chevy.

A: Both are great cars. The Chevelle is a lot easier to find parts for than the Charger because fewer manufacturers make things for Mopars. Personally, it is no contest. The Charger! I am a Mopar fan and my philosophy is Mopar or No car. If you want to be part of the crowd, get a Chevy, if you want to stand out, get a Mopar.
