This shows you basically how much little has changed in the basic chasis of these cars since the 2005 LX introduction.

This was a V6 Dodge Magnum which basically has both the front and rear cradles with engine, 8 spd tranny, steering brakes, suspension and all swapped over from a wrecked Scat Pack Challenger, yes NOT from a Charger. That includes the entire Challenger dash plus BCM, PCM and all. Some minor fabrications here and there but more or less bolted on.

Unfortunately, it did fall off a lift during the transformation so it's a bit rough on the body from that, and it's a work in progress still, but it's good enough to drag!

This is at Mile High Bandimere Speedway in CO so with elevation and DA of the day, probably anywhere from a 6000-8000 DA, so about right ET's for an 8 speed 392 at this altitude I would estimate ...

That guy doesn't seem to be afraid of a challenge that's for sure. Good luck to him and I can't wait to see some more vids.
