Buying from afar

1970 Dodge Charger

The exterior was inspected for cosmetic issues and functionality. There are some chips at the edge of the trunk door (see pictures). The underside has been undercoated, which can hide rust. The window trim and door seals were in good condition, and the glass was free of any obvious damage. Both the headlights and taillights were clear and free of any visible cracks or damage. Panel gaps and shut lines appeared to be normal.

During the interior inspection, the seats showed light wear, which is normal for the mileage. The passenger seat belt was found to be stuck, and the center console displayed wear and tear (see pictures). The blower motor is not functioning, and the carpet shows normal wear consistent with age and mileage. There were no floor mats in the vehicle at the time of the inspection. Additionally, the speedometer and odometer are not working. There were no indications of smoke or unusual odors.

The engine bay and undercarriage components were visually inspected to check for any indications of leakage, deterioration, and fluid conditions. All accessible fluids were at their proper levels and displayed a healthy color. There were no visible signs of leaks or seepages underneath.

A test drive was conducted, during which the vehicle started after a couple of turns on a cold start and then started right up with no issues multiple times afterward. There was no smoke, and the vehicle idled well. Power delivery was smooth, and the steering was good and direct. The vehicle tracked straight, the brakes worked effectively, and the gears shifted without any issues. Additionally, there was no road noise.

The tires were inspected for tread depth and any unusual wear patterns. All four tires are of the same brand and have sufficient remaining tread depth; however, both rear wheels are missing a hubcap, and the front right wheel has some scratches.
