This is a No Reserve Auction so good luck bidding!

 

Here is a 1970 Dodge Challenger with its original matching numbers 318 V8 engine and matching 3-speed manual transmission on the floor. It is F8 dark green with green interior, and originally had a white vinyl top. The car has power steering, manual drum brakes, music master am radio, fender mounted turn indicators, console option, and six-way seat adjuster. The car is about 97% complete and includes some extra parts (missing some trim and air cleaner), and it has a Connecticut title, fender tag, door decal, dash VIN, and radiator stamping that all match. The car is ready for a full restoration back to original, or a great candidate for a T/A or RT clone. The car has been stored many years and does not run, so the buyer will need to make arrangements to have the car transported. Here are some more details on the car to go with the photos. PLEASE BE ADVISED VEHICLE NEEDS A COMPLETE RESTORATION INCLUDIBNG RUST REPAIR, VEHICLE DOES NOT RUN.

Fender Tag codes Read:

C62- 6-way seat adjuster, G34- Left hand outside racing mirror, L31- Fender mounted turn signals, M21- roof drip rail moldings, R11- Music master AM radio, V5F- Body side moldings green, V1W- Full vinyl top white, A01- Light package, A04- Basic radio group, A05- Protection group, C16- Console with buckets, C55- Bucket Seats, EF8- Paint Code Dark green metallic, H6F8- Trim grade high, vinyl buckets green, 000- Full upper door, 615- Build date, 116657- Order #, E44- 318 2-barrel, D13- 3-Speed manual floor

The frame: the frame overall all is quite solid, with three small areas that I noticed that have some rust. First is a spot on the top of the frame rail just below the battery tray(common spot), second is a spot on the passenger side frame extension, and the third is a spot in the bend of the frame by the left rear tire. (see pics that correspond with these areas) The trunk floor needs replacement but frame underneath looks pretty good.

Body: The body needs a full restoration. All the panels look original with probably a repaint at some point.  Because of the vinyl top there is rust in the front pillars and a hole on the rear passenger side of the roof. The filler panel behind the vinyl top trim looks good though. Fortunately there are roof repairs panels available now. The drivers inner front fender (affects battery tray, hood hinge, etc) needs to be replaced. The front floorpans have surface rust but no holes, and the drivers side rear floorpan does have rust  through and affects the inner rocker on that side.  The grill is in excellent shape, the firewall is solid, and the bumpers are pretty solid too. The original doors on the car are in decent shape. The hood and trunk lid are rough underneath, but I do have a bunch of extra used body parts that go with the car if the buyer wants them, including an extra trunk lid, front valence, rear valence for dual exhaust, two front fenders, and two extra doors)

Interior: All the original seats and panels appear to be in the car, except for the carpet and headliner material. (the bows are still in place) The dash has some cracks in it, the glass is all there, original 3-speed console is in there too. The 6-way seat adjuster is still in place under the drivers seat. Obviously the interior needs to be restored as well. Sometime in the 70’s someone added a pioneer 8-track player under the dash and I still have it!

Drivetrain: The numbers matching engine and transmission are still in the car. The only modifications that were made were a 4-barrel intake and carb were added, plus and exhaust system with headers. The car hasn’t been run in many years so its safe to assume that they will need a rebuild. I was told the rear end is 8 3/4 . The car originally had steel wheels but now has a set of 14” rally wheels.

The buyer will get the CT title plus a bill of sale with purchase. The car is sold as is with no warranty, anyone is welcome to view the car by appointment, or I can send more photos if that is not possible. NOTE: If you have 0 or negative feedback on your account please contact me before bidding. The car must be paid for within 7 days of the end of the auction. The car can be picked up anytime during the day or evening, but preferably on the weekend.

Please contact me with any questions!

2015 Dodge Charger Pursuit prepares to keep Hellcats in line

Wed, 13 Aug 2014

Earlier today, Dodge pulled the wraps off its 2015 Charger SRT Hellcat - a 707-horsepower sedan capable of sprinting to 60 miles per hour in 3.7 seconds and reaching a top speed of 204 mph. Naturally, the car debuted in a bright shade of pull-me-over red, so it was fitting, then, that Dodge also brought its newly updated 2015 Charger Pursuit to keep everything under control.
No, cops won't be able to spec their Charger cruisers with the 707-hp Hellcat engine (oh man, imagine the chase scenes...), but law enforcement officials will be able to choose from either a 3.6-liter V6 or 5.7-liter Hemi V8, producing 292 hp and 370 hp, respectively. V8 models can be ordered with all-wheel drive, and Dodge estimates that with either engine, the Charger Pursuit can achieve up to 26 miles per gallon on the highway (thanks to the V8's four-cylinder mode).
Other updates for 2015 include improved braking power, a seven-inch display in the instrument cluster, a five-inch display in the center stack, and a new vehicle systems interface that could make it easier for police squads to install computer and radio equipment.

Chrysler recalling 700k minivans and Dodge Journey for ignition switch woes

Tue, 01 Jul 2014

General Motors isn't the only automaker with ignition switch problems. Chrysler is fighting it too and is now announcing a recall of 695,957 examples worldwide of the Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans from the 2008-2010 model years, plus the 2009-2010 Dodge Journey.
According to a statement from Chrysler, the models have a bad wireless ignition node detent ring in the ignition switch, making it possible for drivers to appear to have the key in the "Run" position but for the spring not to fully engage. It can then slip back to the "Accessory" position and shut the car off. If this happens, the vehicle loses power steering, brake boost and the airbags.
There is some disparity about the number of vehicles affected under this recall. In its statement, Chrysler claims that it covers 525,206 vehicles in the US, 102,892 in Canada, 25,591 in Mexico and 42,268 elsewhere. However, the recall announcement posted by The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration lists an estimated 438,109 vehicles in the US. Chrysler spokesperson Nick Cappa told Autoblog via email that the reasoning for the different figures "will become clear at a later date."

2014 Dodge Durango priced from $29,795*

Wed, 14 Aug 2013

With all the new updates the Dodge Durango is getting for 2014, one thing that Dodge isn't changing on its big SUV is the starting price. Just like the current model year, the 2014 Dodge Durango will be priced from $29,795 (*not including $995 for destination).
This price is for the base SXT model, but the 2014 Durango is also offered in a new Limited trim level (replacing the Crew) as well as the sporty R/T and the luxurious Citadel. The Durango Limited starts at $35,995 (an increase of $800 over the 2013 Crew), while the R/T now starts at $38,995 (up $2,500). The top-of-the-line Durango Citadel will start at $40,995 - an increase of $1,000.
The many improvements made to the 2014 Durango include revised exterior styling, added in-cabin tech and an eight-speed automatic transmission (expected to return better fuel economy). Dodge is saying that the V6 models will get 25 miles per gallon on the highway while V8 models are expected to score 23-mpg highway, but there are no official EPA numbers to report yet.
