Make it a convertible Challenger or \u2018Cuda and you\u2019re talking about a royal court with a tiny handful of members. While not every source agrees, it seems that just over 40 E-body Hemi convertibles emerged from the factory in 1970 and \u201971. Only nine of those wore Dodge Challenger R\/T badges, all from 1970. With just single-digit quantities of the Hemi Challenger R\/T Convertible made, they are understandably among the most valuable American cars of the era, with seven-figure prices realized at high-profile auctions in recent years.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, Chrysler produced nearly 3,600 total Challenger Convertibles in 1970 and with some motivation, a bit of skill and the broad availability of parts, the act of creating a clone or tribute version offers an alternative to big-money originals. This restored <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hemmings.com\/auction\/1970-dodge-challenger-wickenburg-az-398421\" >1970 Dodge Challenger R\/T Convertible Hemi tribute<\/a> now on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hemmings.com\/auctions\" >Hemmings Auctions<\/a> packs all the right elements of a legit Hemi car, including its 426-cu.in. V8 engine, a functional Shaker hood scoop, R\/T trim and more.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"1970 Dodge Challenger R\/T Convertible 426-cu.in.

Hemi V8, an engine rated at 425 horsepower and 490 lb-ft of torque from the factory. The seller shared casting codes showing the engine block and intake manifold to be correct for a 1970. As in the original, this one sports a hydraulic camshaft, a change instituted for all street-going Hemis that year. A pair of correct Carter four-barrel carburetors sit atop that intake manifold.<\/p>\n<p>Though it appears factory original on the outside, the engine build apparently was enhanced with an Eagle forged crankshaft, NOS rods and ARP fasteners. The seller notes that the rebuilt powertrain had only accumulated 1,669 miles at the time of the listing submission. The companion four-speed manual transmission\u2014also indicated to be correct for a \u201970 R\/T Hemi\u2014was also reportedly rebuilt during the restoration and is listed as shifting \u201cperfectly.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"1970 Dodge Challenger R\/T Convertible Hemi tribute, rear quarter, top up\" class=\"rm-shortcode\" data-rm-shortcode-id=\"0c650b95112b9429e3aca24f5574f1b2\" data-rm-shortcode-name=\"rebelmouse-image\" id=\"6364c\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.rebelmouse.io\/media-library\/1970-dodge-challenger-r-t-convertible-hemi-tribute-rear-quarter-top-up.jpg?id=51012295&#038;width=980\"\/><\/p>\n<h3>Refinished in Factory-Correct FE5 Bright Red<\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>According to the fender tag, the FE5 Bright Red hue is authentic to the factory build of this car, and the refinish appears to be holding up well. The power-operated white convertible top also looks pretty good with the seller using the \u201cperfect\u201d to describe it. The cable-stayed hood pins are another nice touch in the R\/T Hemi tribute game.<\/p>\n<p>Inside, the reupholstered white vinyl trim looks to remain in excellent shape and contrasts with the black carpet. The simulated woodgrain, rim-blow, three-spoke steering wheel and pistol grip shifter also do yeoman service as part of the build.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"1970 Dodge Challenger R\/T Convertible Hemi tribute, white vinyl interior\" class=\"rm-shortcode\" data-rm-shortcode-id=\"8510c4350a2f7de712da1b898300e594\" data-rm-shortcode-name=\"rebelmouse-image\" id=\"ccf1a\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.rebelmouse.io\/media-library\/1970-dodge-challenger-r-t-convertible-hemi-tribute-white-vinyl-interior.jpg?id=51012324&#038;width=980\"\/><\/p>\n<h3>Restored and Updated Chassis and Undercarriage<\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>At Hemmings.com, we ask for sellers to provide underbody images of the vehicles they list to let bidders know the quality of a restoration. The pictures the undercarriage of this Challenger provided by the seller show an exceptionally clean, seemingly freshly painted surface of the lower components of the unibody chassis. The Sure Grip Dana 60 rear axle, said to be equipped with the correct 3.54 gears of a Hemi four-speed also looks fresh. There are only the most minor elements of surface rust appearing on a few fasteners, but you really have to look for them under this E-body. Along with the Dana 60 axle, the rest of the chassis has been upgraded to Hemi specs.<\/p>\n<p>Head on over to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hemmings.com\/auctions\" >Hemmings Auctions<\/a> to take a look at this faithful <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hemmings.com\/auction\/1970-dodge-challenger-wickenburg-az-398421\" >1970 Dodge Challenger R\/T Convertible Hemi<\/a> tribute to one of the all-time kings of muscle car royalty.
