A New Life for an Old Friend

We recently welcomed a 1972 Dodge Charger into the V8 Speed and Resto Shop. This classic muscle car, once a beloved high school ride, is set to become its owner’s ultimate retirement cruiser. This cool Charger requires some TLC to reach its full potential.

The Owner’s Vision

The owner’s primary goals for the Charger are clear:

  • Complete the wiring and tuning: Ensuring the car runs smoothly and efficiently.
  • Install a custom console: Adding a modern touch with a touchscreen and other features.
  • Prepare for cross-country adventures: Making the Charger road-worthy for long-distance travel.

The owner’s emotional attachment to the car is evident. This is more than just a vehicle; it’s a symbol of his youth and a companion for his golden years.

Our Approach

At V8 Speed and Resto, we’re committed to bringing the owner’s vision to life. Our team of skilled technicians will carefully address the wiring and tuning issues, ensuring the Charger runs like a dream. We’ll also collaborate with a custom interior specialist to create a console that blends modern amenities with the car’s classic charm.

Join Us on the Journey

We’re excited to share the progress of this restoration project with our community. Stay tuned for updates on the wiring, tuning, and custom console installation. We’ll also provide insights into the owner’s journey and his hopes for his beloved Charger.
