The legendary R/T E-49 Charger.....this is without doubt one of the all time greats from the proper Muscle Car era!

The legendary E-49 was the fastest accelerating Australian production car of its time, even faster than the almighty Phase III GT-HO Falcon, a record the E-49 held for many years, and their all conquering race records in this country are the subject of legend, these cars where virtually unbeatable at a lot of the original race circuits here in NZ at the hands of the likes of Rutherford, Leonard, Tulloch, and Little, etc, and their continued success has been well documented,

This magnificent NZ new example is a well known car, and was sold brand new in Nelson on the 5th of January 1973 and has a fully recorded history, still retaining the original ownership papers, and a photo of the car as delivered new!

It is believed to be one of only three of the 149 E-49s ever produced to be ordered in SunFire Yellow, and is quite possibly the only one to have had the rare tan interior trim option, with this exterior colour.

The super straight clean original body still retains all of the tell tale E-49 stampings and markings, genuine ID tag, and the original correct unmolested stamped inner fender well markings, and has recently undergone a professional bare metal repaint to a high standard of finish, with photos of the process accompanying the car, the interior which is largely still unrestored and original has had the front seats properly recovered and a general going over, but sympathetically retains a lot of the original materials,

The strong 265 engine sits proudly in the engine bay and is nicely detailed displaying the magnificent Six Pack brace of Webber carburettors which sound absolutely fantastic, and with this power house running through the 4 speed gearbox, it is an experience to drive that wont easily be forgotten!

The rare colour scheme, correct period alloys, and just the right stance make this E-49 an absolute pleasure to offer for sale, we have only ever sold one other R/T E-49, and of only 19 E-49s to be imported here new by Todds 40 years ago, not many genuine ones would be left to choose from.........

This is a very rare opportunity to own a truly iconic piece of Australian and New Zealand motor racing history, and a seriously collectable car.

Inspection will impress a genuine buyer, call today for more details, and an appointment to inspect this historical Muscle Car.
