Dodge Charger RT/R -68
During a decade, In a s small town in central Sweden, a masterpiece with detail and craftsmanship beyond what is called sanity has evolved under the hands of owner Johan Eriksson and his friends Jörgen and Otto, who all is the core team of this project. A fellowship named Powered By Johan. The RT/R is project in cooperation with Turtle Wax Sweden and with support of a bunch of others to make it a reality.
The idea of the RT/R was to mix the original Mopar spirit with a bit of “Hot Wheels appearance” but still keep the soul of what the American muscle ikon Dodge Charger -68 stands for, but transform it to a super modern sports car with extreme performance, stance and styling according from Johan´s own design and ideas.
