When I was about 8, a guy I was introduced to became a friend of the family and he had this same car except it was the non RT and I'll never forget how smooth he was using the manual! A very nice antique from the early 70s. Hope you all have a great Christmas!🌲
It was an interesting car to drive and check out for sure!! Clutch was super stiff compared to modern manuals I’ve been in! Have a great Christmas too!
The new Dodge Challenger deserves a reward. They did such an amazing job of recreating the original it's second to none on that measure. And it's one of the best looking modern cars to boot.
Wow, this one takes me back. I was in high school when this model came out. You can definitely see today’s Challenger lines in this 71 model. My first car was a 1973 Plymouth Satellite Sebring. Those were the true muscle car days…..the Challenger, the Mustang Mach 1, the Chevy Camaro and Malibu SS. Pedal to the medal! Good video! 🔥
Very cool! I have a comparison coming with the modern Challenger. A ton of similarities. Great looking car for sure and it was something else to drive for sure!
That is a beautiful car! I have a 2020 50th Anniversary Challenger R/T in F8 Green and you can definitely see the resemblance. Dodge does the best job of making a cool older design look modern. Awesome cars and great video!
Glad you enjoyed it! We have an old Mach 1 coming soon too! Cool checking out these old school cars! So much different then the new cars we are used too
When I was 19 back in 1983 I was a Chevy guy, until I went to look at a 70 R/T 383Magnum!As I approached the car from the back and saw four chrome exhaust tips sticking out through the valance panel and full lengh tail lights and walking around the side of the car seein 1971 tail stripe and upper body R/T stripes,white on B5 medium metallic with white bucket seat/ console - slap stick automatic and then what really blew me away was seeing that bulg hood,hood pins 383Magnum on the sides of the mean as hell hood scoops and then the beautifully mean ass grill! Good bye Camaro, Chevelle etc.!! I bought that car and a 73 318 challenger and had to put the R/T hood,grill wheels etc.on the 73 as the 79 R/T had been undercoated right over the salt from Pa winters! The entire car was held together with bondo! But someone was awesome with that bondo cuz it looked great 😅 still think about how I was moved by the racecar look and beauty of the 70 challengers! Wish I could have another 79 or 71 R/T!! Thiught I'd share a little nostalgia with you!
Im European and this is one of my dream cars...Ever since i saw the Vanishing point movie (original one of course not the remake) i have a huge love for the 70s Challenger. It has so much soul and it literally defines a word muscle in muscle car...It just feels like its coming from a better era where you still had freedom. Plus this one being a manual is just a huge plus for me..
Merry Christmas everybody! Excellent Christmas gift 🎁 of a Challenger review! Thanks guys!!! ( Also a fan favorite is the 1969 Dodge Charger with the 426 Hemi)
Piece of 4-wheel history here. Amazing. In Europe would consider the drive with this "days of thunder". :) This is so realistically said. :) A very detailed video. I like it. Keep goin. p.s. Merry Christmas to all. Drop by when have time. Appreciate it.

These cars drive and handle great,funny thing you have to get used to them for people who are not used to old cars...I can fly around corners and basically drive it the same speed around corners/canyon roads as newer performance cars...Each car has its own feel and line you need to take in the road... I had a 70 Challenger RT 440 Magnum 4bbl and ran low 12's in the 1/4 mile,this car was stock I only tuned it up,adjusted timing and replaced the 750 carter with a 850 carter carb.. Old standard transmissions are different than modern ones,but once you know you can really hammer them upshift,downshift and powershift!
I own one of these and the clutch is definitely "heavy". But a BLAST to drive, ab-so-lute-ly.... And you'll never see a better looking domestic made car on the road than the 70 Challengers.
The 390hp rating is correct for 69-70 440-6bbl cars, for 71 440-6bbl cars the rating was 385hp. This car has a 440-4bbl which would have been rated at 370hp stock for 1971... except Challengers weren't even available with the 440-4bbl anymore. This engine obviously isn't stock so why bother quoting an HP rating at all? Do you guys have a technical advisor to make sure your research is correct because there was actually a LOT in this video that was inaccurate. Nothing worth being overly pedantic about it though since the point of the video is "look at the neat car" @@BrosFOURRSpeed
@@commentaccount49 Based on my research and talking with the dealer who had information from the owner of the car. That’s where I got everything, that’s why I stated the info I did. What else do you think was wrong?

If those two cars were same price I would pick this vintage Dodge Charger. The exhaust note sounds really good and it goes about as fast a C5 Corvette in the quarter mile. But the reality is that this car costs a lot more than a new Hellcat Challenger or Charger. I have seen anothet of the same model and trim listed about 4 years ago for around 400K USD.

@@BrosFOURRSpeed Almost cried seeing it. It's superb. You strech the leg too much when using the clutch. It will be easier to use if you get closer a few inches.
@@IonIPopa But that’s comfortable for me! Any closer and my knee would touch the steering wheel and I wouldn’t be able to shift, so I had the seat in a comfortable position for myself.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed so basically Chrysler (dodges parent company) when putting manual transmissions into cars, if it was your bare bones type of car it got a 3 speed manual, but for performance they got a 4 speed. So that challenger in your review had a modern 5 speed manual probably a tremec still a nice car and transmission
Don't like the white seats!! I'd go black!! My 70 RT and my 70 CUDA black interior with a tricked out 383 and tranny. Wish I still had my cars, I still have nightmares!!!! Engine started in a 66 charger paid 500$ for it in 82 when I was 18. Wrecked it. Bought the Challenger for 400$ with no engine in 85. Bought the Cuda for 500$ in 87.
Thanks for sharing! Sounds like a good deal for some project cars or just to get one cheap! I'm not sure how the white is still in that good of condition unless it was restored not too long ago, but I'd go black too. It does match the white on the exterior though!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed They weren't project cars, they were complete. From 82 to 92 you could've had your pick of the litter? I remember seeing those ugly ass SUPERBIRDS for 1,500 dirt cheap? But, who knew??? Fast and the furious movies is what really made classic cars blow up!!!
My definition of performance engines is different than yours. The 71 Challenger had at least five performance motors 340 383 440 426. Don't forget six pack options
A 440 4 bbl was not offered in 1971. Just the tri carb 6 pack. The 4 bbl version was available in 1970 only. Someone has done some swapping on that car. The torque on a 440 4 bbl was 480 in 1970. The 6 pack torque was 490 on the 1971. There was no 440 Magnum in a 1971 Challenger.
Excuce me?? At approximately 6:40 you can see the shift knob with the pattern. 1-2-3-4-5-R This symbol (5) is the number five. Which indicates a 5 speed transmission. And since there was a clutch pedal and a manual shifter. This was in fact a 5 speed manual. Your comment confuses me? Unless it's the wrong shift knob. But I'm used to new cars, so perhaps in 1971, way before I was born they put wrong shift knobs on, or its aftermarket. I'm not old enough to remember when these were at dealers.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed If that's correct, and it now has a 5 speed manual transmission, then the original tranny was definitely swapped at some point, which decreases the overall value of the car, as 5 speeds were not available as factory equipment until the 1980's on American vehicles.
How can an old school muscle car be rice? The JDM cars weren't even here back then as anything other then econoboxes lol. This was before ricers fled the scene in the US
Man I love the Challenger. I think it's the best proportioned and most attractive muscle car. Okay love the 69 Boss 302... The challenger evokes style of the Hemi Cuda but you're gonna dish out three to four times the price for a Hemi Cuda. The Challenger ticks all the boxes for me. Also it's not a huge muscle car it's sort of the midsize muscle car AKA Pony car which is actually for me the ideal size because the Charger and GTX and Coronets are massive four-door cars with two doors...... so yeah the Challenger RT has my vote and you're not forking out 200,000!
