1970 Dodge Charger R/T Hemi 426 4 Speed in Burnt Orange & Start Up My Car Story with Lou Costabile

[@danpals7678]

I drove a beautiful blue 70 Coronet 500 383 4 727 all through college with every option except power windows which I never liked anyway. Fast, fun and very reliable. Now I'm retired and have a 66 383 727 Charger that I love.

[@loucostabile]

Hi FUBAR Model Yard, Happy to read you enjoy this car :-) You're welcome, Lou

[@Kit_Bear]

I love it how the Hemi sounds like it's just gargling with the fuel. This is my dream American car. Really piss off the Eco Warriors on the Left.

[@josephromano6825]

Winner!

[@loucostabile]

Agreed :-) I like this one too.

[@dave1956]

It always amazes me how many Hemi vehicles have survived. Here in Wisconsin they were rare when new, possibly due to the fact by this point the insurance companies were charging exorbitant rates on muscle cars. The ‘68-‘70 Chargers have always been a favorite of mine. The design is absolutely timeless. My uncle had a ‘68 and when he traded it for a ‘71 I was disappointed.

[@loucostabile]

Hi Dave, Happy to read this one falls into the years that are your favorites :-) Sorry to read about your Uncles trade for the 1971 :-( Lou

[@keithoneil6711]

Super smart guy buying this great Chrysler product before Craig Jackson and Dana Mecum made it impossible for working stiffs to buy these cars. Beautiful.

[@IWrocker]

Another great video, My all time favorite Mopar. Nothing like the badass HEMI and the '70 Charger is so beautiful. Bravo

[@loucostabile]

You have outstanding taste :-) Lou

[@airforceveteran71]

Awesome looking..once had a '70 Charger 500 but this one is something special..thanks for sharing.

[@loucostabile]

So glad you enjoyed this car. So cool a "Hemi Charger". Thanks for viewing and commenting, Lou

[@sacooper802]

[@2414kels]

Love it!

[@loucostabile]

Such an awesome car...., thanks for viewing and glad you enjoyed the video / car, Lou

[@71plymouth.]

My mind is blown.... I'm at a lost of words on the conversation of this Charger... I just hope I can have my 70 Charger back like this. One day...

[@loucostabile]

Thanks for such a GREAT comment. I hope this inspires you to get your 70 Charger back on the road, Lou

[@collhandluke9491]

HEMI brown, HEMI smile

[@loucostabile]

Win / Win :-)

[@E1N9A8N0DA]

HEMI Charger '70. One of *112* (nope, didn't forget any digit) made that year. I laugh at those Ferrari/McLaren owners/enthusiasts blurting about their "collectible" cars. Tell them about the 1969 Corvette ZL-1 or the 1971 Hemicuda Convertible, and watch them cry in pain... Muscle Cars had everything already 50 years ago : Power. Style. Exotism. And they weren't even expensive. Props to those guys still driving them to this day. Muscle Cars FOREVER. :D

Thank you so much Lou for uploading this! Amazing car! The color is the same as my dads 70 Charger! Burnt orange goes great with this car

[@loucostabile]

You are welcome. I'm so glad you enjoyed this car that is like your Dad's. Your Dad has a COOL car! Lou

[@tysongonsorowski8574]

I have the exact same car only with a 440 -all original burnt orange 4speed dana-wish mine was in that condition though-nice car -very sharp

[@loucostabile]

Hi Tyson Gonsorowski, You have a great car too. What is the reaction from "Car People" when they see your car? Lou

[@tysongonsorowski8574]

I have never driven it. I purchased the car along with a 69 f6 green RT from a guy six months ago. The engine in the 70 had a spun bearing and it had the 69 motor in it. the motor will be done in a week but I still have to do rear frame rail s and trunk floor. I'm really looking forward to driving it hopefully by mid summer-I m not doing a concours resto just getting it back on the road. my 70 also has the C stripe with burnt orange but has a black gator grain top and black interior. my car came out of Minneapolis the owner told me back in the late 70 -my 69 was purchased new in Appleton WI

[@loucostabile]

Hope the restoration and engine come out the way you'd like them to so you can get a nice enjoyable ride in your car, Lou

[@johndowney4461]

Hi Mark W, Glad you like this "nice" car :-) Lou

[@kc-6837]

Nice!

[@loucostabile]

Clean Hemi. Just a treat to video. Thanks for viewing and commenting, Lou

[@alcyr5655]

Had a 69 Coronet R/T, Burnt orange, I got off my brother. He needed a $1200 loan. Early '90's. I thought he'd never pay me back. Simple mods. Electronic ignition, rebuilt Holley double pumper with new Hooker headers. 727 torque flight. With a shift kit. Back then I hated that colour. I could deal with that car now. Burn a tank of fuel in under an hour, and break the tires free at 30 mph.

[@loucostabile]

Good times, good times :-)

[@christopherg9806]

Hey Lou have you gotten a chance to check out that Red Dodge Charger RTR from Sweden

[@loucostabile]

Haven't seen that one yet Painter Lava Lamp.

[@timothyballinger6280]

Do you know what he paid for it in 86? Its probably a million dollar car today

[@loucostabile]

No idea on value or what he paid.

[@chargerdave2046]

I approve

[@loucostabile]

:-)

[@motorheadbanger7720]
