Great video. Thank you for taking me down memory lane. My first car was a '70 Challenger R/T with a 383 Magnum. It was sublime with a black spoiler, black racing stripes, hood latches.....I loved it! The car was originally my older brother's but after his wife got pregnant he decided to make some changes and sold it to me. What great memories! I loved that car!!!

I can agree with the pre-72’ models being desirable across the board. I’ve always liked the Cuda’s, that being said Dodge has always tried to stay out one step ahead in the power department and be heavily drag strip oriented minus the viper. Awesome video!

After seeing your video on your buddy Joe's Challenger this was fun to watch as I have owned 74 Rallye 360 and a 70' Challenger Sixpack 4 speed, and a few years ago a 19' Scat pack Shaker 6 speed. The Challenger sure has had a long career after being dumped initially by mid 1974. I owned the 19' Challenger between my 15' GT/PP and 19' GT350. As an owner of a old school and a new school Challenger....I would not hesitate to back to the 70 model. Thanks for posting this special video..

Tony, Awesome job sharing the lineage on a product your not as familiar with, I think you did a great up job telling the story about them in such little time. Sure, I'm biased cuz that's my 09 in the end of it, it was a fun ride that day. You need to make a pass with me sometime. LOL.

Great to see Bob's Challenger! He gave me a ride on Gingerman with it on the Great Lakes Rally and it does handle.amazing. Also saw a rally pig!!! Great video!

Love the scenes from Vanishing Point. I remember the TV Show The Mod Squad, which also featured a 71 Challenger convertible which CC never really made that I know of.

THANK YOU SO MUCH. I LOVE THE ICE-POWERED DODGE CHALLENGER.

Thanks for making thi!

I appreciate you making the video

Outstanding video once again Tony. When it comes to Mopar, the look of the Charger is more to my liking except of course to the 4 doors. The price of the current Dodge models is going through the roof. Dodge is playing this last year of their combustion engines very wisely. They have everyone believing their Hemi V8 engines are going away permanently. I’ll believe it when I see it. Thinking of trading in my 2020 GT500 for a 2023 Durango Hellcat because I live in Minnesota. You’re a knowledgeable person TonyNJ. Always fun watching your videos.

Ive built several Challenger Model kits (1/24 Monogram 70 Challenger TA,1/25 AMT 70 Challenger RT Convertible,1/25 Lindberg 72 Challenger Street Rod and 1/24 Maisto 08 Challenger SRT8...).

Nice video 👍👍

Thanks Tony for showing other cars. I know how it is when you're in the passenger's seat and don't have control of the car. I'd like to scream myself or" Oh Crap!"😲. Lol! Now if they give you a warning it's different.✌️😁

The 1970 w/340, Hurst, 3:55 rear. Color, Go Man Go Burnt Orange interior. Yessss!

Your look was like my wife’s when I get her in our 2016 hellcat! Scary car but fun.

I love these cars. I had a 70. Rt. Challenger. And then went to a 72. Rally. When they came back out i fell in love again. They looked so much like the old models. Bought a 2017. TA. We're supposed to be only made for 1 year like in the 70. But they made more the next year to. Traded that in for a 2020 50th anniversary numbered challenger. No. 34 out of 70 in the RT package 5,7. Loved them then and love them now. My forever car. Only in nice weather. Color cinnamon stick. Mopar or no car.

The Challenger had a good run. If I was not a Ford person, I would own Pontiacs.

I love all your videos. Did we just become best friends? 😂

Is this part of a "know your enemy" series? 😆

Just in the first 1:30 you got a few things wrong. But who cares? Your a Ford guy, and this is a good video. I own a 2012 Yellow Jacket SRT. It is a iconic throwback to the original show car in 1969 which was the car to be presented as a car they could make into production. It quickly faded from the shows because there was a mistake in the marketing campaign and the show girl got more of the attention than the car. Chrysler scrapped the Yellow Jacket show car and turned it onto a "Corvette" ish show car, but the following year, the Challenger, which was based on the Yellow Jacket became a production car. As for the Valiant- that was the base car for the 1st pony car ever, the Plymouth Barracuda in 1964, 6 months before the Mustang. But the Barracuda looked sad compared to the Mustang, and was never the hit of the Mustang.

Great video.. really enjoyed it. Too bad that after being dedicated to bringing some extremely amazing modern musclecars to the market, they have decided to stop and move to EVs... I don't care how fast EVs are... as a musclecar they don't have any heart or any soul to them... very utilitarian appliances.
