If you spot this 1970 Challenger on the street, it probably deserves a second look, but it can easily be mistaken for a restored old muscle car. However, in reality, this Challenger, built in a workshop, is one of the craziest and most powerful cars under the Dodge brand, capable of producing up to 2,500 hp.

This is more than the average electric hypercar, and matches some of the wildest turbocharged Nissan GT-R and Lamborghini drag cars in the world.
This beast, affectionately named “Chaos,” was created by Rides by Kam in Queensland, Australia. Over three years, the workshop spent over 10,000 hours transforming a regular 1970 Challenger into something that easily handles any task.
Engine Beyond Limits
At the heart of the Chaos car is a specialized Roadster Shop chassis, powered by a custom 572 cubic inch V8 (9.37 liters) built by Stanton Racing Engines. This massive engine features a forged crankshaft, several Mopar parts, 2,200 cc injectors, and a ProCharger F3 supercharger on top.
During the initial creation of Chaos, the engine was tuned to run on 101-octane fuel, allowing it to produce 2,500 hp. However, it was later detuned for use with 91-octane fuel while remaining at a crazy 1,200 horsepower for everyday driving.
The V8 is paired with a Tremec Magnum T56 six-speed manual transmission and a 9-inch Roadster Shop differential. All this power is delivered to monstrous Mickey Thompson tires in the rear.
All Custom Car
In the process of modifying the Dodge, both the exterior and interior were upgraded. Mecum Auctions, which handles the sale, notes that it was covered in PPG Charley Hutton paint, and inside you can find a lot of brown leather with diamond stitching and seats from Holden Commodore.
The dashboard is a masterpiece of art, fully custom-made, with new vents and Dakota Digital gauges. For the tech-savvy, an iPad serves as the central display.
This unique Challenger will be auctioned on March 22, and its value is expected to impress with its performance. If you think you’re ready for such power, check out the lot at the Mecum auction a
