Classic Investment launches ultimate ’69 Dodge Charger

• 1969 Dodge Charger R/T for sale with Classic Investments

• Ultimate restoration of iconic American muscle car
• Fully sorted for UK road use

 

Classic Investments, a UK-based restoration specialist, has completed the ultimate restoration of an awesome 1969 Dodge Charger and is looking for a buyer that wants a no-holds barred piece of American muscle with the added benefit of modern-day reliability.

Highly desirable, this iconic model was made famous through the 60’s classic film Bullitt as well as the 70’s TV show Dukes of Hazzard. This particular example has been upgraded with high-performance components and is ready to be enjoyed in modern traffic.

This original R/T car was fully stripped and had all rust removed, before being rebuilt to better than new condition.

The original suspension is improved to include adjustable Koni dampers, while steering feel is sharp thanks to polyurethane bushes. The brakes have been upgraded with a new Servo unit, 11-inch discs and rotors at the front and 11-inch uprated drums at the rear.

The 440ci Magnum V8 engine is now-fully balanced and running a performance camshaft, a Holley 770 Street Avenger series 4 barrel carburettor and stainless-steel exhaust.

The engine has already been run in, so the car is ready to be enjoyed to the maximum from the moment of purchase.

The interior has been comprehensively retrimmed. Prior to the fitment of the new trim and carpeting, the structure was soundproofed for comfort on long journeys. All original components are rebuilt including radio, gauges, speedometer, switches and centre console. Custom wood grain steering wheel with natural Wenge trim, fine Italian leather seats and a strip of beautifully polished Wenge wood between them.

Editor in Chief at Magneto magazine, David Lillywhite, said: “The Charger looks really good, exactly the right spec (engine, seats etc) and right colour for the car. Matching numbers is a big deal in the muscle car world, as it is with Porsches. It’s obviously up with the Mustang as the most iconic muscle car out there.”

Classic Investments carried out the entire restoration in-house, including re-chroming of all parts, reupholstering and restoring seats and interior trim in order to guarantee perfection.

Agris Alksnis, founder of Classic Investments, commented: “More than 3000 hours have been put into making this the ultimate Dodge Charger R/T. For anyone who wants a classic muscle car, but without the fear of unreliability, this is the car for an enthusiast who cannot get enough of iconic cars such as this.”

This 1969 Dodge Charger R/T is available now from Classic Investments and for information and purchase enquiries go to www.classic.investments

REVS Origins: the stories of automotive passion

Continuation of the highly successful social media series, on Saturday January 23rd


• Encourages people to tell a video ‘origin story’, and share their passion
• Free classic and enthusiast event supporting the wider community during COVID
• Join the REVS group now: www.facebook.com/groups/1581868865322731/

For the next instalment of the highly successful REVS social media series, REVS Origins is looking for enthusiasts to share the stories of where it all began.

The new REVS Limiter event encourages people to tell an ‘origin story’ via a short video: whether it be the start of their own automotive passion, the love for a particular vehicle, the history of a brand or the life of someone who has changed the motoring landscape. Aired on Saturday January 23rd via Facebook, the video stories will also be available on the new REVS YouTube channel.

launched last May, the REVS Limiter series of social media events were born in a year of challenge and restriction and have proved fantastically popular. As an online community that has grown to over 6200 members, it has received two prestigious awards and is awaiting a hat-trick – after a nomination for a third. Run entirely on the goodwill of its contributors, REVS Limiter has established an inclusive online community that exists solely to support others.

Inspired by the work that members of the REVS Limiter community have already shared, as well as the motoring magazines that kept people occupied with a welcome slice of ‘normal’ throughout last year, the REVS team hatched the idea of ‘origins’: how things began.

A good story goes a long way and, by dividing the day into ten-minute time slots, REVS Origins invites simple video contributions that can be enjoyed live via Facebook on Saturday January 23rd, or watched at a later date. Some will also be shared to the new REVS Limiter YouTube channel, launched over the Christmas period, allowing a wider audience to enjoy the unique content that the REVS events generate.

With the UK once again in lockdown, with vehicles shut in garages and live events delayed or cancelled, the latest REVS event is designed to provide something of a mental health lift in these challenging times. So, whether people just want to discover some great stories, or contribute something of their own, all are welcome as part of the REVS Limiter community.

REVS Origins will run as a Facebook group, and people can upload their own stories, with videos also available after the day from the REVS YouTube channel

The group is open to all and can be joined here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1581868865322731/
