šø Throwback Muscle | 1970 Challenger T/A š
This isnāt just a carāitās a survivor with a story.
This '70 Challenger T/A was originally part of a matching set, owned by a couple who each wanted their own ride. Hers was this automatic, his was a 4-speedāand yes, we've tracked that one down too š
Sold in 1975 to a teenager, it hit the streets hard around Lambert Airport in St. Louisācammed, headers, Mickey Thompsons, shift kit, drag shocksā¦the whole deal. It was known locally before vanishing in 1985. People always asked: "Whatever happened to that car?"
Found in 2019 in St. Charles, parked under three covers in a garage for 35 yearsāhidden away just because of a bad master cylinder. It still had the exact drag setup from the ā70s.
That same year, a friend got it running again. Dave Wise (ECS) used this exact car to prototype the AAR/T/A exhaust he developedāso yes, this T/A wears the first of its kind.
Lance picked it up summer 2021 and has loved every mileāover 1,000 since then. Still loud. Still mean. Still a legend.
