The Dodge Challenger Message Board

Thought I'd post a pic of my '70. It's a good chugging 318, still LHD, which is great fun driving on the left side of the road, especially when you are doing right-hand turns and can't see anything coming...

Very nice, how hard is it to get parts?

looks very original doesnt look like its been tampered with at all
cheers ian

Dodgeguy, Chrysler Australia (before they went belly up 25 years ago) imported the V8s for the Aussie Chryslers so there is no problem getting running gear, transmissions, various suspension parts (but not all), brakes etc..etc. However, getting hold of panels, chrome bits, lenses and so-on is obviously a bit more difficult unless you want to spend a fortune. eg rally hoods go for about $1300, quarter panels about $1100 each, valances $200-$400, fuel tanks $440, rear lens and chrome trim surrounds for about $1000.......Luckily I haven't got any rust issues so I've managed to dodge those bullets so far...touch wood.
