The 1969 Dodge Charger 'Scraptona' SEMA car is for sale.
The Scraptona was originally built by the folks at TreadWear, starting life as a 1969 Dodge Charger shell. According to, the Charger had been sitting out in the Alabama woods for decades, after sections of the car were utilized to rescue another Charger. All that remained for the team to get their hands on was the front cowl, front suspension, and the roof.
The appearance is more rat rod than hot rod, which isn’t to everyone's taste. That hasn’t stopped the car from making waves at shows like the 2018 Sema Show, the 2019 Hot Rod Power Tour, The 2021 Hot Wheels Legends Tour, and the latest iteration of Detroit’s Autorama. The folks at Garage Kept Motors are keenly aware of the fanbase that this car has, and are asking $149,000 accordingly. While that’s enough cash to get your hands on a few modern Mopar muscle cars, there are few builds out there with as much personality as this one.Born and raised in Metro Detroit, associate editor Lucas Bell has spent his entire life surrounded by the automotive industry.

Ford Brings Rally Trucks and Slammed ‘Stangs to SEMAStranded hikers and backcountry adventures can breathe a sigh of relief knowing that ARB has created the perfect off-road rescue vehicle. Using a Ford Bronco Wildtrak chassis with the 2.7-liter V6, ARB worked with Ford to make an ode to the medical service vehicles of the early 1900s, complete with Tube doors, an under-hood air compressor, and a winch. Upgraded suspension by ARB and a series of chassis protection pieces (rock sliders, traction boards, and a skid plate) mean this Bronco should be unstoppable, regardless of the terrain ahead.Bringing the proper equipment is as important as getting to a medical emergency on time. To this effect, ARB has built and installed a first-of-its-kind roof rack with room for boxes, tires, and various other fittings. Additionally, a 47-quart fridge and freezer has been installed for, well, the worst-case scenarios, or beverage consumption. And the medical providers are sure to stay strapped in, thanks to a set of Recaro bucket seats up front. All-in-all, I wouldn't want any other vehicle to come to save me off the side of a mountain.
