Renowned for their expertise in custom houses and parts manufacturing, Ringbrothers have once again perfected the 1969 Dodge Charger. This isn't their first rodeo with the iconic Charger, as they had previously modified another 1969 model, also christened Tusk.

The distinctive customizations are evident in the integration of carbon fiber into the contemporary body and chassis. The Charger's iconic front end boasts a one-piece exposed carbon fiber surround with a single-piece billet machined chrome trim featuring a unique "blind eye" grille. The front valance and chin spoiler are exclusive Ringbrothers-designed components, while both front and rear bumpers have been subtly tucked in and narrowed, elevating the Charger's already impressive design.

Further enhancements include the removal of windshield cover vents, reshaped and lengthened rear end caps, new door skins, and extended, lowered rocker panels. To augment the wheelbase and enhance handling, the front wheels have been shifted forward by 2 inches, all supported by a custom Fast Track Roadster Shop chassis.

The suspension system relies on Fox RS SV coilovers at all four corners, complemented by a robust braking system featuring Baer Brakes Extreme 6S six-piston calipers. Machined billet side vents on the front fender aid in dissipating brake heat. The HRE Ringbrothers Edition "Tusk" rims, shod with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires, complete the ensemble.
