Hello
we have grandmas ( for real my grandma I am 47 now) dodge dart with 36 k miles. it is in really good shape generally. it has been stored for 20 years. it has a slant 6 auto with airconditioning. two door blue metallic . all complete. has some Only rust on rear lower quarters . Car is not a rusty car. Not your typical Illinois car!  garage most of its life. Underneath looks really good , it was heavily undercoated so the lines exhaust system all looks good. the tail pipe after muffler needs to be replaced. This car can run and drive rather easily. Engine is free never froze. radiater was still green. There are like new tires smaller in height then original. We did have the torsion bar changed as it broke when grandpa had it. This is a light restore needed. vinyl top is cracked and a couple of seams are split on seats but all original and really nice. all four windows move great , no body damage otther then rust on bottom of rear fenders. I had ran this car while in the garage ten years ago to pull up on trailer to move to 2nd home, but the gas had gone bad. carb has all new parts but will need to be set up correctly to run. This car was running and driving fine when Grandpa passed and Grandma couldnt drive anymore. Still has the chicago stickers on the windows. i think from the 90s will have to look again. You wont find a nicer original Dart swinger for this price here in chicagoland. This car has been sitting stored for a long time. Gas went bad will need a tuneup to get going. I did put a new starter in it to make sure it turned over and it wants to start but needs carb set properly . But I drove it last so I know it will run and drive well. Its a slant six it of course it will!  best engine they ever made. It has four new tires on it ,not the original type but perfect to use/move the car. Original rims and caps.  This car is garage found fresh and complete!  Paint is good with exception of trunk lid was repainted poorly but original  paint is still underneath. Front left corner has some lifting on very top corner may have had some minor work there.  there are door dings and scratches typical for its age and original unmolested condition.  Truly a grandmas car.

Will not take much to get it on road.  I suspect an evening of someone that knows how to set the float and tune and it will pur like it did when I moved it from Chicago to Libertyville 8 years ago.

Here is the history..
  I bought thier house after Grandma passed 8 years ago and this was in the garge in chicago. I gave it to my son as he is turning 16 but he has his eyes on my dodge truck . if he can sell this I will let him have mine. Very good looking car! and with the new models out now , its only gonna jump up in price like the camaros etc did.   willing to take trades  4x4 trucks,Dodge ram 4x4 pickup( is what my kid wants) Great investment! This will only go up in value not down like most things! Keep that in mind!

prefer cash. thankyou pics to come soon
This is over 40 years old and a classic in very good shape for its age and location. I have had many good offers but they did not spark our interest enough. If its a trade it will have to be something that is equal in value. No rust buckets or crazy high miles. must be a decent good condition running/looking 4x4 extended cab Dodge Ram pickup. 360 or maybe 318. 

We do reserve the right to end this auction early as it is advertised locally.  If someone comes up with a nice red,black 99 and up Dodge ram 1500,2500 ext cab 4x4 it will be gone.  I have the original clear title.

again this is all original all numbers matching been in our family I think for its entire life, just seen pics of it new with proud grandpa and my father next to it.  both R.I.P    Dodge lives on!

STARTING BID .99 CENTS  NO RESERVE BID TO WIN!!!  

 

Ask all questions before you bid or buy. This beautiful storage fresh car will need to be trailered it is not a daily driver but certainly was and could be easily. This was a Chicago car in the city so doesn't have a lot of miles we lived up here and they only drove out twice as that was TOO far to drive for them.  There is no warranty it is being sold honestly and with all good intentions from our family as is as shown.  don't pass it up you wont be disappointed and you have a great chance to get this car at a great price.  Bid to win.  Questions welcomed.   Do not expect to work on it in my driveway .Send a flatbed or rent a trailer for 50 bucks from uhaul . It does move freely and everthing seems to work. Just needs a little tlc to get it started. Garage was dry .More pics to come when the the snow is gone.  thank you

eBay Find of the Day: 1994 Dodge Viper RT/10 with 504 miles

Tue, 26 Nov 2013

It's typically hard to find early examples of the Dodge Viper that haven't been crashed or modified, but one eBay seller has a showroom-fresh version of the V10 roadster up for sale worthy of an eBay Find of the Day.
With just 504 miles on the odometer (according to the description and not the images) and "no defects at all," this 1994 Viper is a rare find indeed. Tack on the Buy It Now price of just $37,500 and it seems like a steal - especially when checking out the prices and conditions of other early Vipers currently listed on eBay.
Even after spending months ogling the all-new 2014 SRT Viper, it's hard to ignore the raw beauty of the original open-top model. From the three-spoke wheels to the calf-searing side pipes, everything about this Viper looks just the way it did when it rolled off the line almost 20 years ago. The seller even says that the top and windows have never been installed meaning there are no scratches anywhere on this car!

2014 Challenger R/T Shaker, Mopar '14 Challenger bring back iconic hood

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

Enamored of the Dodge Challenger but wish you could get one with a shaker hood? We've got good news, because Dodge and Mopar have teamed up to bring it back.
The 2014 Dodge Challenger R/T Shaker packs the same 5.7-liter Hemi V8 as the standard Challenger R/T, but upgrades the business end with a through-the-hood exposed cold-air intake system. The retro hood scoop protrudes from the center of the hood in satin black (matching the decklid spoiler) to feed the Hemi and shakes with the engine just like the original from 1970. The Shaker model also comes with a Super Track Pak that adds a new steering rack, brake linings, shocks and 20-inch Goodyear Eagle F1 Super Car rubber. You can also shut off the stability management system completely in this car. A series of interior and exterior trim enhancements round out the look. The whole package adds $2,500 to the price of a Challenger R/T Classic for an all-in MSRP of $36,995.
In case that's not enough, Dodge is also offering a limited-edition Mopar Challenger that follows the 2010 Mopar Challenger, 2011 Mopar Charger, 2012 Mopar 300 and 2013 Mopar Dart. Limited to just 100 examples, the 2014 Mopar Challenger gets the same Shaker hood intake, unique graphics and wheels, an enhanced interior and a long list of optional extras from the Mopar parts catalog. Dodge isn't saying just yet how much the Mopar Challenger will cost, but you can bet it will command a considerable premium for the exclusivity alone.

eGarage interviews a couple with 65 Vipers

Thu, 12 Sep 2013

Owning multiple vehicles can be a hassle worth enjoying if you're willing to spend the time and the money required to acquire and maintain them. But when it's hard to make ends meet while underused valuable hunks of metal, plastic and rubber sit happily taking up garage space, journeys into the depths of other people's well-developed automotive obsessions will either bring you and your cars closer together, or compel you to sell them off before you become one of those fanatics. A recent video by eGarage is one of those journeys, and it's not for the faint of heart: D'Ann and Wayne Rauh own 65 Dodge and SRT Vipers in a collection of automobiles that exceeds 100.
We're not sure if the couple has developed heat-resistant calves from stepping over Viper door sills made burning-hot by side-exhaust pipes, but we wouldn't be surprised if they did. We did learn that their obsession with the no-holds-barred sports car started in 2006 with a trip to a dealership to buy just one Viper, which goes to show how innocently car obsessions can start. But the Rauhs seem to be doing just fine - perhaps better - 64 more Vipers later.
Watch the video below for the full story and to see what eGarage claims is the world's largest Viper collection.
