Carbon fiber 1970 Dodge Charger body for $199,000.

Oklahoma-based Finale Speed's carbon fiber 1970 Dodge Charger body costs $199,000, according to the company's website.

In August, Dodge announced a carbon fiber body as part of a new item in its Direct Connection parts program, along with carbon fiber parts for the current Dodge Challenger and a drag racing Challenger rolling chassis.

The body is designed to original specifications but rides on a custom chassis with some additional structural bracing, according to Finale Speed. The material is autoclave-cured prepreg carbon fiber, with a flat finish by default. Options include a $20,000 clear coat and $12,500 Forgeline three-piece wheels and tires.

According to the Direct Connection website, the body is delivered as part of a rolling chassis powered by a Hellcat 6.2-liter supercharged V-8 crate engine. The choice of transmission is up to the customer. Neither company has disclosed how much lighter the carbon fiber body will be compared to the original steel body, but it is sure to be substantial.

When the carbon charger bodies were announced in August, Direct Connection said it would also work with Finalspeed on the Plymouth Barracuda and Road Runner bodies, but did not say when they would be available.

Final Speed is not the first company to remake classic muscle cars in carbon fiber. Wisconsin-based SpeedKore Performance Group has produced carbon fiber bodies for several cars, including the Charger build for Stellantis design boss Ralph Gires and comedian Kevin Hart, and the latest " Wild Speed" film, and for the mid-engine 1968 Dodge Charger featured in the "F9" film "Wild Speed.
