You can’t get any more old-school than the latest Dodge Challenger they said. The retro design, powerful HEMI V8s (Hellcat or not) and optional Scat Pack performance stage kits are enough, they said.
Well, what kind of old-school Dodge Challenger would be complete without an iconic shaker hood? None, thinks Dodge’s Mopar arm, which earlier today launched the Mopar Challenger Shaker Hood Kit, which will be available for a MSRP of $2,660.
“With the Mopar Challenger Shaker Hood kit, enthusiasts can create their own customized Dodge Challenger, upgraded with Shaker performance and appearance,” said Pietro Gorlier, President and CEO—Mopar, Chrysler Group LLC’s service, parts and customer-care brand.
“The Mopar Challenger Shaker Hood Kit offers easy assembly and is designed and tested according to strict Chrysler Group engineering standards to perfectly complement the production Dodge Challenger, setting the kit apart from aftermarket options. We’re committed to supporting performance and our company’s strong muscle car heritage,” added Gorlier.
If some of you remember, the limited-edition 2014 Mopar Challenger also featured a Satin Black Shaker hood scoop, but the 100-model production run sold out in a single day.
Those 100 clients will probably feel a bit let down now that the kit has become an option on any Challenger with the 5.7-liter HEMI. Consisting of a Shaker Induction Kit and a Shaker Hood Kit, the new option can be added on any 2011-2014 Dodge Challenger 5.7 HEMI and it can also be used in conjunction with the Dodge Scat Pack performance stage kit. Power to the people!
