1973 Dodge Challenger Rallye - Matching #'s 340 V8 4 - Speed Top Banana!
By the time 1970 rolled around, the Mustang had established the validity of the pony car market. Chevrolet and most of the other manufacturers were quick to follow suit, but it took Dodge a couple more years to unveil their entry into the pony car market with their Dodge Challenger. Wildly unique and capable of packing some serious horsepower under the hood, the Dodge Challenger quickly became a hit on the street and at the dragstrip. It's easy to see why when you look over this nicely optioned 73 Dodge Challenger that features a high impact color and a stout 340 4bbl under the hood.
In 1973, sales of the Dodge Challenger actually increased, the only year this happened in the first generation of Challengers. But the pony car that once hit 425 bhp and boasted a quarter mile in 14 seconds was battling growing government emission regulations at the height of the environmental movement, and the Challenger now only offered two V8 engine types -- the basically wimpy 318, 150 bhp or the 340, 240 bhp. While less power than the old Hemi, the lighter weight of the car actually improved handling, turn ratios, and was quick off the line. I wanna go fast!!!

The Challenger may have been late to the pony car market, by the time the 1973 Challenger was released the Camaro, Mustang, and Barracuda were already well established and had supporters within the marketplace. However, the Challenger even with its back up against the still saw sales rise in 73. This Top Banana Challenger Rallye is a perfect example why.
