Sizzling Speedkore Charger speaks to the heart

This sizzling Speedkore 1970 Dodge Charger is enough to take your breath away.

The 720kW heavy hitter is the work of American performance outfit Speedkore, known for its carbon fibre vehicles and pre-preg carbon fibre body parts.

The level of detail in the work is simply incredible.

Dubbed the Evolution,  it earned its name as the most advanced 1970 Dodge Charger in the world, thanks to a full carbon fibre body.

The full carbon classic features a supercharged 6.2L V8 from the Dodge Demon paired with a Tremec 6060 6-speed transmission, HRE Wheels, a 14-point roll cage with full interior by Gabe’s Custom Interiors.

The vehicle has appeared on Jay Leno’s Garage, Donut Media and Hoonigan.

SpeedKore’s 1970 Dodge Charger, “Evolution,” received one of five Goodguy GOLD awards at the 2018 SEMA Show.

Its all-carbon fiber 2017 Ford Mustang GT Fastback and it’s 1970 Ford Mustang Boss 302 were awarded the prestigious “Best in Show” design award from Ford Motor Company at the world’s largest aftermarket automotive trade show, the SEMA Show.

Want your own SpeedKore Evolution? It will set you back something in the order of $US400,000 (about $590,000 Sussie dollars give or take).

The Evolution Charger will be on display at Monterey Car Week this month in the United States.
