My name is Mike Plunkett and this site is dedicated to my personal favorite muscle car, the 1971 Dodge Charger R/T. Mopar built a lot of great looking cars, but in my mind none compared to the unique lines and curves of the 1971 Charger. One of the option packages available in 1971 was the R/T package. Here is the story of my 3rd childhood, and the long journey of restoration from 2001-2006. Hope you enjoy!

I think the lines of the 3rd gerereation Charger are simply beautiful.  Hope you enjoy the pictures.
