Street

Dodge Charger 1968 R/T - 500ci

---------

This project began 5 years ago from scratch.

Initially bought for restoration, the car evolved into a pro-touring transformation with three unique goals: Showcasing, Street Performance, and Drag Racing.

The complexity of aggregating these 3 aspects to make it work took 5 years of R&D and hundreds of hours. It has now reached its 12th version, with the 13th coming.

This project car is now available for sale. Reach out to us, and let us build and design your dream 1968 Dodge Charger

Specifications

A Streetcar is designed to handle all kind of roads and turns, and requires an excellent drivability, which really impacts the chassis and suspension settings.

It also require long lasting parts and reliable engine setup.

Strip

A Stripcar (dragracing) is built to achive a quarter mile (402m) as quickly as possible.

To do so, it requires specific suspension and chassis settings; opposit to street settings expectations.

The engine is also often built in this objective, which lowers greatly the life expectancy.
