2006 Dodge Charger - cars & trucks - by owner

2006 Dodge Charger, 305 V6, reskinned panels made to look like a 1970 Dodge Charger runs and drives good. Needs a lot of serious finishing work, lots of metal work and body work needed. A lot of...

A 2006 Charger made up to look like a 2nd gen.

There was a dude on DodgeCharger.com that was trying to do this on a budget. He was piecing together stuff using a Chrysler 300 as a starting point.

This guy must be his cousin. The one on DC.com looked like crap and this one isn't much better, hence the lack of good pictures.

I can see that being quite a nightmare to get everything working 100% correctly, as well as fitting correctly.

I've done some pretty different stuff, but I wouldn't give you $1.57 and a hot ham sandwich for that mess. I always started with an engine, trans and a stout rear end. In other words, if your going bear, go grizzly. You can't do that on a budget and get the best results.

A 305 V6 would be quite rare

 

[eldubb440]

why?

 

[Richard Cranium]

why?

305 cubic inches is a Chevy V8. Chrysler’s V6 is a 3.6 which is 219 cubic inches.

 

[Don Frelier]

It's likely a 3.5l

Translation: He got started, it doesn't work or fit right and probably won't ever work or fit right, so now he's unloading it.

It's likely that he meant it had the 305 hp. v6, as rated in newer Challengers. But the Pentastar wasn't even available yet back in 2006 so either he is guessing, or hoping people don't know the difference.

As crappy as the workmanship might be,it's still the best looking 2006 Charger I have ever seen! Why not start with a Hemi powered one though? Someone could make a decent driver out of it,but not with a 16k buy in though!

Id take a 307 over 305 everyday twice on Sunday

Id take a 307 over 305 everyday twice on Sunday

I have no interest in either one!

 

[Hey-O]

I've replaced many 305's with either 350, 406 or 383's.

I'm with the comment above, why do all that **** with a v6, Charger or not
what a waste of a gen 2 Body, at least start with a 5.7 Hemi at min.

this was on a 2013 (?) Charger SRT Hemi LX platform, can't remember which hemi
& I don't like reds much, or at all really, but it looked pretty good (aside from the color)
I think red is way overplayed/overdone, great if you like it 'BUT'
from what I remember when I saved a few photos, it was sharp/nice, well done
