Fuel-Injected 1970 Dodge Charger 500 383

Description

For 1970, the Dodge Charger received a revised front-end design featuring a prominent chrome loop bumper, a full-width grille, and wraparound taillamps that helped distinguish it from earlier second-generation models. The Charger 500 package combined the model's muscular styling with V8 power and a range of comfort and convenience features, making it one of Dodge's most popular performance cars of the era.

This 1970 Dodge Charger 500 is powered by a Holley Sniper fuel-injected 383ci V8 paired with a TorqueFlite A-727 three-speed automatic transmission and an 8¾-inch rear axle. Finished in Bright Blue Metallic with a black vinyl roof over a premium bucket seat-optioned interior accented by veneer woodgrain trim, the car is equipped with air conditioning, power steering, and power front disc and rear drum brakes.

In addition to the Holley Sniper EFI setup, the car features an aluminum radiator, dual electric cooling fans, and American Racing Torq Thrust wheels wearing Cooper Cobra tires.

This 1970 Dodge Charger 500 is now offered in California with removed parts and a clean Montana title in the seller’s name.
