Sometimes, a classic appears on our desks at Barn Finds, where defining its most outstanding feature is almost impossible. Such is the case with this 1970 Dodge Charger R/T. It is a numbers-matching classic that presents superbly following a meticulous restoration. Its drivetrain combination and interior trim promise a satisfying ownership experience, but the distinctive vinyl roof material could be the ace up its sleeve. You will find this classic listed here on eBay in Roseville, Michigan. The seller set their auction to open at $90,000, but there have been no bids.

This R/T, which emerged during the final year of Second Generation Charger production, presents at a level that is almost impossible to fault. I scrutinize supplied photos for every classic carefully before committing words to my article, and it is hard to find anything not to like about this classic. Its Code F8 Dark Green Metallic paint has a depth of color and shine you could almost walk into. It cloaks laser-straight panels, with the underside shots confirming this classic is rust-free. The Lime Green “Bumblebee” stripe adds a striking contrast, but the Black “Gator Grain” vinyl top steals the show. I’ve been unable to determine the relative rarity of this feature conclusively, but I suspect that at least one of our readers will be able to shed some light on the subject. The distinctive grille and concealed headlamps look excellent, with the same true of the remaining trim and tinted glass. The R/T rolls on an aftermarket set of Rallye wheels that perfectly suit this car’s character. The Charger has recently emerged from a meticulous restoration. While it is unclear how many tens of thousands of dollars have been invested in that process, the new owner will reap the benefits from the extensive TLC.

This Charger is more than a pretty face, with its mechanical combination promising an exhilarating but relatively effortless driving experience. The drivetrain is freshly rebuilt and numbers-matching. Power is derived from a 440ci V8, with its 375hp and 482 ft/lbs of torque feeding through a four-speed A833 manual transmission to a 3.54 Dana 60 rear end. Those worried about physical effort will welcome the power assistance for the steering and brakes. This classic has genuine muscle car credentials, confirmed by its ability to scorch the ¼-mile in 14.2 seconds on its way to 123mph. The seller supplies no specific information on how this beauty runs or drives, but the recent attention and overall presentation suggest it should be a turnkey proposition with power to burn.

The stunning presentation doesn’t end when we open this Charger’s doors because the interior is in as-new condition. The seller performed a full retrim using parts from Legendary Auto Interiors. They strived for originality, with the upholstered surfaces wearing Charcoal vinyl. The carpet and headliner are new, while the dash and pad are perfect. The faux woodgrain adds a touch of class to an interior featuring ultra-cool items like a pistol-grip shifter and a Tick-Tock-Tach. Those components are functional, while the pushbutton AM radio adds to occupant comfort.

Sometimes, I feel almost guilty writing about classics like this 1970 Charger R/T because no glaring faults jump out in the listing or supplied images. However, it is worth noting this is not the first time this classic has hit the market. It failed to sell at a previous auction with a single bid of $90,000. Will it sell this time? Only time will tell. One thing is sure, and that is that I will envy the new owner.
