65 Belvedere transplant

Has anybody seen a 65 Belvedere transplanted onto a newer challenger or charger platform? Thanks

that would be hard since the challenger isnt body on frame like your belvedere most likely is.

I don't know anything about the new Challenger, but the 65 Belvedere CERTAINLY is not "body on frame." It's a unibody like any other Mopar B body.

Not practical at all because of the unibody.. NOW you could transplant the drive train into your car but it will be a lot of custom work both mechanical and electrical

I stand corrected! haha i dont know much about b-body stuff.

but yes you should just swap the drivetrain into the car, much easier.
