1970 Dodge Charger Ghost: A Modern Take on Muscle Car Icon

Featuring a carbon-fiber body, advanced chassis, and a 700+ hp Hellcat V8.


The automotive world has a new standout with the introduction of the 1970 Dodge Charger “Ghost,” a stunning creation by SpeedKore. Known for its ghostly white finish, this Charger blends classic American muscle with cutting-edge technology and design, setting a new benchmark for performance and aesthetics in the muscle car arena.

The “Ghost” showcases SpeedKore’s commitment to innovation with its full carbon-fiber body, including the floor and wheel tubs, all crafted in-house from aerospace-grade materials. This advanced construction not only enhances the car’s performance but also contributes to a sleek, modern appearance. Mounted on a custom SpeedKore chassis, the Charger offers improved handling and a lower center of gravity, reflecting a fusion of timeless design and contemporary engineering.

The Charger’s exterior is defined by its unique carbon-fiber bodywork and meticulously designed SpeedKore frame, which conceals essential components for a cleaner look. The front features a grille center machined from billet aluminum and finished in Cerakote, paired with custom LED projector headlights. The profile is further refined with flush-mounted glass and an uninterrupted greenhouse, while a carbon-fiber taillight panel complements the car’s classic “Coke bottle” shape.

Inside, the Charger continues its luxury theme with a custom carbon-fiber dash, door panels, and rear quarter panels. The seats are equipped with carbon-fiber backs and custom leather upholstery. Modern amenities include a 2,000-watt Bluetooth audio system and gauges from Classic Instruments, blending the classic Mopar feel with contemporary performance.

The “Ghost” rides on a steel chassis with a 14-point roll cage for enhanced rigidity and performance. It features Penske dual-adjustable coilovers, a Detroit Speed double A-arm front suspension, and a custom rear suspension setup. Stopping power is delivered by Brembo brakes, with 19x9 inch front and 20x12-inch rear HRE wheels shod in Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires.

Under the hood, the Charger houses a reworked Dodge 6.2-liter Hellcat V8 engine, producing over 700 horsepower. It is paired with a TREMEC TR-6060 six-speed manual transmission, a carbon-fiber driveshaft, and a Strange 9-inch rear end. Custom SpeedKore headers and MagnaFlow mufflers enhance both performance and sound.

The 1970 Dodge Charger “Ghost” represents a seamless integration of past and future, elevating the iconic muscle car to new heights of innovation and design.
