Brief History

We bought the car from Robert Ross, a soldier from Jacksonville Fl that was stationed at Fort Bragg NC in the early seventies.Robert bought the car new before being shipped out to fight for our country in Vietnamand was the original owner until we bought the car from him in 1979.at the time we boughtthe car from Robert it was showing 30,609 original miles on the odometer and had an expired 1973 inspection sticker on the windshield. It had not been driven since 1973. Robert had left the car at a friendandrsquo;s house and returned to his native home in Florida after his time in the army. We saw the car sitting under his friendandrsquo;s garage and bought our Hemi Challenger complete but not running in 1979. We stored car for about 3 years until we could get the original lien release and the original title from Robert. Then save enough money to afford to get it running again.

We have had the car for 37 years and drove the car sparingly and logging another 3500 miles on the car over 37 years. Our Hemi Challenger now has 33,955 ACTUAL miles on the odometer.

A few years ago we decided to have a frame off nut and bolt restoration and/or refresh, Using all the original parts on the the car it was disassembled cleaned and reassembled to factory showroom new condition Completed 4 years ago . Only 11 miles have been added to the odometer since restoration.

The Hemi Challenger has never had any body damage and is at least 90% original including all the sheet metal which is laser straight. Even the Rare Shaker Hood is original to the car. The Engine is the correct date code unstamped factory warranty replacement block and all the drive train including the automatic transmission and rear axle is numbers matching original to the car. The original dash(which is in perfect shape) console, shifter, steering wheel, door panels, glass, grill, taillights trim,shaker, ETC are original to the car and have been cleaned or refreshed but do show some of the very normal light unrestored wear of an 33,000 mile original Hemi car.

Our Hemi Challenger R/T has been in the family for 37 years . Included with the car is a copy of the original Florida owners 1973 lien release, original NC title, three different original build sheets, one from the back seat, one from the rear of the front seat and the electrical build sheet that was taped to the rear of the glovebox. Both original unrestored fender tags.
