More about this car
A 1970 Dodge Challenger hardtop offered on Hemmings in Celeste, Texas at $39,500 — and a project, plainly. The listing's single photograph shows a stripped, engineless Plum Crazy shell with faded, peeling paint and heavy surface rust: glass out, interior stripped, a major restoration start point rather than a car. It is the same shell photographed for an eBay listing in this price range. What is included beyond the shell is the key question for the seller before anyone prices the considerable work ahead.
What the photos show
- This is a project, not a driver: purple paint is faded and peeling, with surface rust across the roof, hood and quarters.
- Front and rear glass are out; the interior is gutted, seats are torn and the floors are rusty.
- Dash VIN plate is photographed and reads JH23J0G305575 - the J code fits a 340 car.
- Body stampings are photographed too, ending 305575, matching the VIN's last digits.
- The engine is out of the car: a bare block is photographed separately, plus rocker shafts, manifolds and a Six-Pack-style intake and air cleaner laid out on the floor.
- The engine bay is empty and the trunk floor is surface-rusted but appears solid in the photos.
- Loose parts fill several photos - booster, pulleys, suspension pieces - all rusty and needing rebuild.
- Nothing here runs or drives; the photos can't tell you what parts are missing beyond what's shown.
Money: at $39,500 you're buying a photographed-matching 340 shell and a pile of parts - the restoration will cost multiples of the price, so budget the whole build before bidding.

Its up to the new owner if they want both Hemi or just one of them, its up for negotiation, a super rare 1 of-1 example configured exactly as presented, finished in iconic Go Mango Orange--one of the most aggressive and desirable high-impact colors ever offered by Dodge. This is the kind of car serious Mopar collectors spend decades searching for. Only 356 Total R Code Hemi Dodge Challengers Were produced in 1970, 150 Of Those Were Automatics.
