EXOMOD CONCEPTS OPENS ORDERS ON “BLACK VELVET”
The Breathtaking Carbon-Bodied ’68 Charger Built on a Powerful Modern Day Mopar Can Now Be Yours
Greenville, PA (July 2023)—Question: What do you get when you take a modern Dodge Challenger Hellcat, strip it down to its safety cage, and rebody it in carbon fiber as a widebody 1968 Dodge Charger? Answer: Perhaps the most awe-inspiring modern supercar cloaked in a classic body, significant weight reduction, and a powerful, modern drivetrain that’s still under warranty. Classic, bespoke carbon fiber over modern tech.
Introducing the eXoMod Concepts Black Velvet, a limited-edition Mopar Hellcat that’s been rebodied in custom carbon fiber to look like a 1968 Charger. eXoMod spends 1,500 hours on its custom builds, ensuring the highest quality results and the ultimate ownership exclusivity experience—no one on your block, in your city or even your state will own the same car as each one is built differently.

“The Black Velvet is perhaps our most gorgeously menacing build,” says Rick Katzeff, CEO of eXoMod Concepts. “It turns heads wherever it goes and blends the sought-after aesthetics of the late ‘60s with a modern twist and powerful, reliable driving experience. It’s definitely a favorite among enthusiasts and non-enthusiasts alike.”

eXoMod Concepts’ production team has more than 50 years of experience in the muscle car industry, building some of the world’s finest and highest-scoring concourse restorations and custom restomods. They saw a need for something new and different in approaching custom car building and eXoMod Concepts is the result.
After completing a no-expense-spared ProTouring build, using the very best of aftermarket parts, at the eXoMod Concepts found that it was still 50+-year-old technology that proved finicky, unreliable, and less than enjoyable to drive. They believed the elusive perfect car was within their reach, that the quintessential combination of reliability and high-performance coupled with the iconic look of one of America’s most beloved rides was attainable.
eXoMod Concepts has teamed up with the best carbon designers and producers in the USA to build a bespoke, custom carbon fiber body enveloping the fastest production-car powertrain available.
