1969 Dodge Charger R/T - Red - 36,036 Miles - 440ci V8, 4-Speed Manual
Overview
The 1969 Dodge Charger R/T is one of the most celebrated American muscle cars ever produced, representing the golden era of high-performance Mopar engineering. Built during the peak of the muscle car wars, the R/T (Road/Track) package combined aggressive styling with legendary big-block performance, creating an icon that remains highly sought after by collectors worldwide. This example is particularly desirable as one of approximately 3,605 factory-built 440ci, 4-speed manual Charger R/Ts produced for 1969, making it an exceptionally rare specification.
Finished in striking factory-code R6 Red, this Charger is further enhanced by its very rare red bucket seat interior, creating one of the most desirable colour combinations available. The vehicle is equipped with the sought-after A33 Track Pack, incorporating a heavy-duty Dana 60 Sure Grip limited-slip differential and heavy-duty cooling package. Power comes from a rebuilt replacement 440 cubic inch steel crank V8, upgraded with double valve springs, a Mopar Purple Shaft camshaft, Crane Cams roller rockers, Carter Thermoquad carburettor and electronic ignition. While the engine and rebuilt A833 18-spline Hemi 4-speed gearbox are not numbers matching, they are correct specification components that deliver the authentic big-block driving experience enthusiasts seek.
The vendor advises the vehicle has undergone an extensive restoration with significant mechanical and cosmetic improvements. These include a rebuilt replacement engine, rebuilt A833 Hemi gearbox, completely renewed interior, restored dashboard and 8-track radio with FM conversion, restored grille, new chrome trim, new fuel system, new suspension components, new braking components, new windscreen, new seals and rubbers, and ADR-approved seatbelts. The body retains its original quarter panels, doors and chassis rails, together with mostly original floor pans and boot floor requiring only localised repairs, with the vendor advising the vehicle was never heavily affected by rust.
For collectors seeking one of the most iconic Mopars ever built, this rare 440 4-speed Charger R/T presents an outstanding opportunity to acquire a highly desirable specification benefiting from comprehensive restoration and tasteful performance enhancements.
