About this Article

It should come as no surprise that when Blake Dankovich decided upon what muscle car he wanted, he opted to go with a 1969 Dodge Charger R/T. The Chicago resident is more than familiar with the Chrysler family of vehicles — both classic and modern — having a father who works in downtown Detroit at the company’s global headquarters.
