Hotcars.com had an article featuring the 10 best custom muscle cars for 2024. Among the 10 were a 1971 Challenger, 1968 Charger R/T, 1970 Charger Daytona, 1970 'Cuda and 1967 GTX. Here is the 1971 Challenger: Drenched in a custom HEMI Orange paint so hot it could melt asphalt, this Dodge Hemi Challenger is pure adrenaline on wheels. Reimagined by the wizards at John Shope Designs, it was stripped to bare metal and rebuilt with painstaking precision—resulting in a muscle car that’s nothing short of breathtaking. With its vintage-inspired charm intact, it flaunts a menacing Shaker hood and a bold rear R/T wing, amplifying the aggressive lines that make the Dodge Challenger a true icon. This car doesn’t just look fast—it feels like it’s daring you to chase it down the street. Rolling on 17-inch factory-style Rally wheels, it masterfully blends a classic stock look with the untamed power lurking beneath the hood. This isn’t just a car; it’s a statement—a blazing reminder of why the Dodge Challenger will forever be the king of the muscle car jungle. Under that legendary Shaker hood lies a modern 6.2-liter supercharged HEMI Hellcat engine, cranking out an absolutely bonkers 700 hp. Power is sent to the wheels by an 8-speed automatic transmission, ensuring that all that fire-breathing power is delivered smoothly and efficiently. It’s a match made in performance heaven, designed to take you from zero to adrenaline overload in the blink of an eye. Best Custom Muscle Cars In 2024
Mostly superb. The pink Cuda was a daring color choice but works. None of Dave Kindig's (Bitchin Rides) were selected. The exterior's, including Tom's favorite haven't really been customized have they?
I was never a fan of the rallye wheels. I had the deluxe road wheels on my 1971 'Cuda. (Note- This was a winter photo and I had different wheels on my rear snow tires).
