1970 Dodge Challenger Pro Touring
This is a one of a kind built Pro Touring 1970 Dodge Challenger designed by Eric Brockmeyer with over $200, 000
invested. This car features XV Motorsports Level II Suspension front and back, Level II brakes, a new Indy
Cylinder Heads all aluminum 528 cubic inch Street Legend Hemi, functional T/A hood with factory air cleaner and a
host of unique features. This was a ground up restoration with a real 1970 Challenger body disassembled and strip
at the start of the build. Paint and body work on this car are show quality. The vehicle took three years to
build and has 900 miles since the build. Never been shown or presented in magazines.
Make no mistake, this isn’t an amateur build with a few bolt-ons, this is a high end custom build with best of
the best components and unmatched engineering to deliver ride quality on par with modern performance vehicles.
Started with a rust free 1970 original Dodge Challenger, removed all the glass and completely disassembled the
complete car. All the undercoating was stripped from the undercarriage. Then all the paint was removed and soda
blasted the complete body. Cars by Haines painted the complete car and undercarriage Dodge Hemi Orange Pearl. The
bottom of the car looks and shines like the top.
The car is powered by a balanced and blueprinted Indy Cylinder Heads all aluminum 528 cubic inch Street Legend
Hemi. The engine is topped with a 850 Mighty Demon which puts out 730HP @ 6600 RPM with 660 Torque @ 4800 RPM on
92 octane pump gas.
The engine is mated to a hydraulically actuated Keisler TKO 5-Speed transmission which transfers power via an
aluminum driveshaft to a built 8-3/4 rear with a limited slip differential, alloy axles and 3.90:1 gear set.
Exhaust is handled by a set of, custom built by hand by James Vega, headers with 3” pipe out of stainless steel
with electric cutouts. The complete exhaust system, from the headers to the exhaust tips are stainless steel and
the cutouts allow you to adjust the exhaust to the sound you want.
The engine bay also features a Be Cool aluminum radiator with twin electric fans, March Serpentine system with all
billet components including the hood and trunk hinges.
Crockett’s Automotive provided the fuel system starting with a custom made stainless race baffled fuel tank by
Rick’s Tanks, El Paso, Texas. The tank has a 450 LPH fuel pump located inside the tank. While at Crockett’s
all new glass was installed with electric windows and door locks and the rest of the body parts were hung and
aligned.
This car features top of the line XV Motorsports Level II suspension system. Up front, this includes and aluminum
K-Member, billet Aluminum CNC’d upper control arms, forged aluminum spindles and lower control arms, quick ratio
variable rate power steering with adjustable bump steer, NASCAR style adjustable splined tubular sway bar with
billet aluminum arms and mounts.
The rear is XV Motorsports Level II suspension which is a three link design with adjustable panhard bar, billet
aluminum trailing arms, adjustable third link and an adjustable splined tubular sway bar with billet arms mounted
through the frame rails.
Both front and rear shock absorbers are custom calved, single adjustable nitrogen charged monotube coil-overs. The
coil-over feature allows for adjustable ride height. These shocks are road race quality, custom valved by
application, with matching spring rates that have been professionally tested on the track and street.
To allow the suspension to work its fullest, the car has a XV Motorsports Chassis stiffening system installed. The
system includes laser cut sub frame connectors contoured to the floor pan, inner fender braces.
Brakes are road race quality featuring 14” 6-piston in front and 13” 2-piston in the rear. Rotors are true two
piece design with billet hats and slotted discs. The pistons are sized to the application including the matched
master cylinder and use of hydro-boost. Since the brakes were professionally engineered for this car the result is
a vehicle that brakes hard and flat. System is plumbed with braided stainless hoses, stainless hard lines and high
temp fluid.
Wheels are custom Boze three piece billet aluminum 18” X
