This is a one family owned low mileage car in very good condition for it's age. 318/auto a/c manual brakes. Pass. 1/4 was replaced in 1989 after an accident but looks to be done well. The entire car was repainted at that time.The floors are solid, but have surface rust as shown in the pics. The pics make it look worse than it is. The floors do not need replaced. The trunk floor has some minor surface rust, but appears to be useable with some sandblasting or ? The drivers lower rear 1/4 has some small bubbles and may need a patch, but the rest or the car is VERY solid. Minor surface rust at rear corners of rear window. I asked a Body man if they needed cut out and he said no way, just spot blast, still very solid. The glass is nice with no cracks or chips. The doors close nicely with no sag, confirming the low milage. The subframes are excellent inside and out. The suspension parts are very restorable with only a light dusting of rust, no nasty rust. Lower ball joints do need replaced, but if I were keeping the car, I would replace all the wearable items, They are 45 years old after all. The engine runs smooth and quiet after rebuilding the carb, and installing electronic ignition and new cap and rotor(Pertronix) The brakes were bled and a new master cylinder was installed. The inside of the gas tank is spottless as is the sending unit. The car sat in a garage since 1995, but we now have it running and driving. However, I would not drive it across the country just yet.The a/c comes on but is not cold. There are no visible signs of leaking , so it may just need a charge. The seats and headliner have some weak seams but are all there. The dash pad is nice but has a small crack on the bottom pass side not visible in the pics. The car is not missing any trim and all the stainless is nice.The car still needs some tlc but is an excellent start. I would love to keep it, but my son is heading to college and I can't have two toys. These cars are getting very hard to find in this condition, and you will not be disappointed. I cannot stress enough how good the overall condition is. Thanks for reading the long description.

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
Ron Burgundy returns for four more Dodge Durango ads
Mon, 04 Nov 2013Dodge has released several more of its Anchorman 2-themed commercials, starring Will Ferrell as inept newsreader Ron Burgundy. The four spots, one of which is a sequel to a previous commercial, follow roughly the same pattern as previous ads, with Ferrell's Burgundy misunderstanding or generally making a fool of himself. For some of the ads, though, Burgundy is selling more than just Durangos - the red-suited host of San Diego's most watched news broadcast shilling the entire Dodge lineup.
We've included all four ads down below, and you can also hope over to our original posts to see some of the older commercials. Oh, and if you're getting tired of these - we aren't, aside from the Do-dge spot - just remember that Ferrell reportedly filmed around 70 ads for Dodge.
Chrysler readying Hellcat V8 with Viper-like power
Tue, 21 May 2013A monstrous supercharged V8 engine could be in store for Chrysler and SRT products, if recent rumors are to be believed. Allpar is reporting that the forced-induction V8 - Chrysler's first, if this goes down - could make its debut this summer.
The story goes that the Hellcat would be based on a 6.2-liter Hemi engine, rather than on the existing 5.7- or 6.4-liter versions of the company's vaunted mill. In any case, the general consensus is that the motor will have gobs of power. Modest estimates call for between 500 to 570 horsepower, with some outliers predicting a figure as high as 600 hp. That figure would put the output would place the Hellcat awfully close to that of the 640-hp V10 in the SRT Viper, too. Allpar contends that a slightly lower powered version would allow Chrysler to keep costs below that of the more powerful Ford Shelby GT500, which might be a sweet spot.
The Hellcat could debut in a number of SRT products. SRT versions of the Charger, Challenger and 300 are all up for grabs, as is the rumored SRT Barracuda.
