Mopar enthusiast vehicle market activity

Overview

Recent automotive market activity shows various Mopar enthusiast vehicles appearing in listings and auctions. In late August, Dodge Challenger models were noted in the market, including a customized 2010 R/T with a 5.7-liter HEMI V8 and a 1972 project car in Minneapolis. By early September, the focus expanded to vintage Plymouth vehicles. Notable listings included a 1971 Plymouth Fury Gran Coupe in Connecticut and a rare 1966 Plymouth Belvedere convertible equipped with a 426 cubic inch Hemi engine, which was scheduled for auction at the Mecum Nashville 2026 event. In mid-September, attention shifted toward highly modified and performance-oriented vintage models. A heavily modified 1970 Plymouth Fury III convertible, referred to as the ‘Frankenstein Mopar’, has gained interest for its ‘Day Two’ style modifications using period-correct parts. Additionally, a 1970 Plymouth Hemi Superbird owned by Troy Hawks has been highlighted, having been restored to a street-legal configuration. Market activity in mid-September also featured high-value classic Dodge muscle cars. In Southampton, New York, a 1971 Dodge Charger R/T with ‘fuselage’ styling and a numbers-matching 440ci ‘Magnum’ V8 is listed for $89,900 following a six-year restoration. Furthermore, a rare 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T Hemi in ‘Plum Crazy’ is available; it is noted as one of only 137 units produced with a 4-speed transmission and features approximately 69,000 original miles. In October, the market continues to feature notable Dodge models. In Salem, Oregon, a 1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye with a numbers-matching 340 cubic inch V8 is listed for $34,950. Additionally, a rare 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona from the Jennings Wing Cars collection, which was originally campaigned by NASCAR legend Dave Marcis, is scheduled to debut at the Muscle Car & Corvette Nationals in Rosemont, Illinois, on November 21-22.
