Diy Dodge Challenger Revealed For $7,995

This DIY Dodge Challenger muscle car’s body kit is intended for race car builders.

Dodge is shutting down the assembly line that produces its Challenger muscle cars in December 2023. So, before then, it’s building as many cars as possible. A few will even be sold with some assembly required.

The automaker is looking to get the most out of the factory while it still has it. So, it has decided to sell Challenger bodies a-la-carte for drag racing car builders.

Furthermore, the body-in-white will be literally that, complete shells finished in a white e-coat of paint. However, other colours will be optional extras.

The Challenger rolling chassis is $89,999 without an engine or transmission. (Dodge)

They are priced at $7,995 and will be available for order through one of Dodge’s Direct Connection dealers, which have been certified to sell its top performance and racing parts.

The bodies are aimed at grassroots racers looking to create an affordable drag car that’s not street legal. However, Dodge has something for those who are willing to pay more to get more. And therefore, will be offering a full rolling chassis racing car complete with a suspension, roll cage, Strange Engineering 9-inch rear axle and drag wheels with Mickey Thompson tires for $89,999.

Buyers will have to add their own powertrain, driveline and engine management system to finish it off. But, there is a wide selection available from the Direct Connection catalogue, depending on the level of performance looked for.
