     This Challenger is a project that I started about 10 years ago.  I replaced the quarter panels, sandblasted all the surface rust from the floors, wheel wells, and trunk.  The engine bay is repainted as well as the floors, door jams and trunk floor.  The work is quality and this will be a very nice car for whomever finishes it.  The engine is a 383 out of a 69 Chrysler Newport.  It has been bored/honed to fit new KB Hyperutectic pistons with 9.5:1 compression.  The 906 heads have hardened seats and are fully machined including a fresh valve job.  It has a mild cam and an Edelbrock 4 barrel intake.  The engine was built by a local racer and professional engine builder.  The interior is in the process of being done, all new coverings from Legendary.  All of the seat frames were sandblasted before being reassembled.  I started this car in college, moved out of state for a job, and the car sat in my Dad's garage.  It has been there for about 8 years.  Two years ago I moved back home and started working on the car again.  I started working on the body and that is when I got the paint and supplies, over $1,200 for the paint products alone.  The paint is FE5 Rally Red from Sherwin Williams automotive.  It is top of the line paint, Ultra 7000, this is the high line for Sherwin Williams and from my experience a very nice quality paint.  I have painted several projects with this paint and always appreciated its quality.  The body work that has been done is professional level and this will be an easy car to finish.  It is very dusty from sitting, but the paint work is very nice.  

    
    The car was originally a frost green metallic with dark green interior, but I thought red would look a little better.  In 1974 the Rally option was available on all models of Challenger and this car has the Rally package.  It was originally a 318 car and I have the numbers matching engine that will go with it if needed.  It has the power bulge Rally hood, Rally gauges with 7,000 rpm tach, Slap Stick automatic with console.  I have done a tremendous amount of work on this car and I would say that it is 70% done, but it would need a paint job and to be put back together.  All of the interior is purchased and comes with the car including a new headliner, all new Legendary seat covers, beautiful door panels, and everything else that is needed to complete the car.      
    The reserve is set low as I need to sell this car.  I just purchased another car and I am out of room and money.  Recently when I took the pictures, I replaced the gas, changed the cars oil, and got it running.  It has a lifter that is tapping, but I suspect this will go away as the car is driven a bit.  I have only driven it from my Mom's garage to my Dad's storage garage and there it has sat for the last 8 years or so.  It has a total of 2.5 miles on the new engine and freshened transmission.  It has a clean title and is ready for sale.  $500 deposit required within 48 hours and the balance on pick up.  Shipping within a reasonable distance may be possible, please ask and we will see what we can work out.  I have a box of receipts and pictures of the work that was done.  I have spent well over the reserve price in parts alone!  Please feel free to contact me with any questions.  My cell is 702-371-2302, Jeremy.  I would consider a 1968-70 Road Runner or GTX project as a potential trade.  This will make a great car for some lucky person!

Ralph Gilles responds to Dodge rumors, says brand is 'here to stay'

Fri, 12 Jul 2013

This is why we love Ralph Gilles. While in Italy hanging out with a group of Viper Club members in Europe, the SRT boss took the time to respond to a question directed at him on Instagram in regards to the future of Dodge.
Recent reports have painted a bleak picture for Dodge, but Gilles defended Chrysler's full-line brand by stating that the rumors are, "all rumors, Dodge is here to stay! It may get more focused going forward but not killed!" The idea of a "more focused" Dodge brand could lend some credibility to reports that the Grand Caravan and Durango are on their way out, which would leave Dodge solely as a car, or car-based, automaker.

Ranking Dodge's Charger Hellcat with the fastest sedans in the world

Thu, 14 Aug 2014



"This is a car that most brands would never bring to market." - Tim Kuniskis
Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis had reason to be confident, perhaps even a bit cocky at the reveal of his brand's newest halo car, the 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat. As he said simply, it's the "quickest, fastest and most powerful sedan in the world."

We cruised Woodward in the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat [w/video]

Tue, 19 Aug 2014



We were definitely rock stars at the 20th edition of the Dream Cruise.
The yell came from somewhere in the crowd: "Hey Hellcat, push it!" We obliged with a jab of the throttle, and the 707 horses of the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat roared to life. It went on like this. All weekend. It's one thing to attend the Woodward Dream Cruise, it's quite another to star in it.
