The introduction of the Dodge Magnum in 1978 marked a significant moment in Dodge's history, serving as a complement to the Dodge Charger. Available in two variants, the "XE" and the "GT," it was the final model to utilize the enduring Chrysler B platform. With a design that softened the edges of the Charger, the Magnum was a strategic move towards creating a more aerodynamic vehicle for NASCAR eligibility, addressing the aerodynamic limitations of the 1975–1978 Charger. This initiative was crucial for keeping Mopar icon Richard Petty in the race, especially with the 1974 Charger being phased out for the 1978 NASCAR season. Presently, a meticulously preserved 1979 Dodge Magnum XE, boasting a mere 11,250 miles, is on offer, representing a pivotal era in motorsport racing under the Mopar banner.
The 1979 Dodge Magnum XE shines in Teal, a quintessential 70s color, complemented by a teal vinyl top. Its design features, including four rectangular headlights behind retractable covers and narrow opera windows, epitomize the era's aesthetic. The vehicle stands on new Firehawk Indy 500 tires encircling steel wheels with chrome hubcaps, while chrome embellishments enhance the bumpers, side mirrors, and trim, reflecting the car's superb condition. Inside, the cabin welcomes with a teal cloth interior accented by wood grain and chrome, maintaining the exterior's color scheme. The dashboard and steering wheel, adorned in matching teal, complete the cohesive and vintage ambiance of the interior.
Powering this classic is a 360ci V8 engine equipped with an electronic lean burn system, reflecting the early incorporation of fuel efficiency innovations into the automotive sector. Coupled with a 3-speed TorqueFlite automatic transmission, power is smoothly delivered to the rear wheels. The vehicle's suspension system features Chrysler's adjustable longitudinal torsion bars, lower trailing links, and anti-sway bars at both ends, ensuring a balanced and responsive ride. The pristine condition of the engine bay further attests to the care bestowed upon this vehicle, ready to captivate its next owner with its historical significance and impeccable preservation.

A Dodge Charger…station wagon? Technically, yes. The Dodge Magnum was released in 2005 as the station wagon version of the Charger. The high performance SRT-8 version was available from the 2006 model year with several performance upgrades, including the 6.1L Hemi engine from the Chrysler 300 SRT-8. Like the Charger and the Chrysler 300, the Magnum was also based on the Chrysler LX platform, and shared parts from its partner company Mercedes-Benz, especially from the W211 E-Class and the W220 S-Class. Parts of the rear suspension came from the W211, while the design of the front suspension was derived from the W220. The transmission, differential, driveshaft, steering system and some electrical components were also from Mercedes. This car is reported to have done just 62,250 miles in 18 years.

For decades, American-made muscle cars have dominated the performance charts — so much so that they have always been able to demolish their competition at any drag strip. This 2022 Dodge Challenger SRT-8 Hellcat Redeye Jailbreak, with just under 4,000 miles on the odometer, is no exception. The Challenger name is synonymous with those who want to go fast in a straight line while producing a sensational soundtrack, and the rest, as they say, is history.
In 2008, Dodge released a golden oldie nameplate with a modern yet distinctively retro design. Named the Challenger, after Dodge’s historic ’60s muscle car, the 2008 Challenger would be produced until 2023 as a stylish and powerful two-door coupe. The nameplate spawned a variety of high-performance derivatives with suitably quirky titles. Here’s one for sale, a 2023 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Jailbreak Last Call with just under 4,300 miles on the clock. The title alone is quite a mouthful, but the performance on offer will leave your jaw dropped, and mouth opened in awe each time you put the pedal to the metal. Let’s delve deeper into what makes this 2023 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Jailbreak Last Call so interesting that we had to use its title twice in our opening salvo.
If you want to see the inspiration for the current-era Dodge Challenger that was made between 2008 and 2023, look no further than this 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T 440 Convertible. This is a first-year, first-generation Challenger, and the one that set the template for the nameplate that’s excited so many Americans over the past many years. Available as a hardtop and a convertible, the Challenger could be had with a massive 440 Magnum under the hood. That’s precisely what this rejuvenated car from Pittstown packs, and it’s ready for a new owner. So, if you want a classic ’70s American muscle car icon that hasn’t been touched by the dire hand of the Malaise Era, you can’t go wrong with this car.
One of the most popular nameplates to come from the Bowtie brand, the Chevrolet Delray debuted for the 1950 model year, as the automaker’s flagship full-size offering. It would run for thirty years, and eight generations. The nameplate wasn’t only seen in the United States, but saw prominence in Canada and Australia too. Of course, the most desirable of the Delrays are the earlier ones, particularly those from the fifties. That makes this 1958 Chevrolet Delray 2-Door Sedan an excellent classic car to experience what American motoring from was like.
Chevy released the third-generation (or C3) Corvette in 1968, and the public lost their minds. Here was a car that was basically 80% concept, its lines lifted straight from Larry Shinoda’s Mako Shark II of 1965. Interestingly, the C3 Corvette was released in Hot Wheels form a few weeks before its official release by GM – in a GM-authorized move with Mattel, owners of the Hot Wheels brand. That’s why getting your hands on this 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is a smart move since less than 29,000 units were made that year. This car comes to you from Florida with a fully rebuilt engine and is reportedly an example with all numbers matching.
Late 50s Chevys and mid 60s Cadillacs have always been popular candidates for restomod projects. However, not all of them are tastefully done like this fully restored 1965 Cadillac de Ville convertible restomod. 1965 was the first model year for the 3rd generation De Ville. It retained the same wheelbase as its predecessor, but the frame was a new perimeter frame (rather than the old X frame). The horizontal headlamp arrangement that had been standard since the late 50s was dropped in favor of a vertical arrangement, which also resulted in a wider grille. Gone were the softer lines of the old car, replaced by a sharper, more boxy design. The tailfins that had started shrinking since 1960 were now lower and slanted slightly downwards rather than slightly upwards. The new straight lines in its design make this car just as good looking with the top down as it does with the top up.
