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 Challenger looks fresh, still plenty retro [w/video]

Thu, 17 Apr 2014

It was the Ford Mustang that kicked off the retro-styled muscle car renaissance back in 2005, but it was the Dodge Challenger that served as the movement's poster child, with its unabashedly retro looks. Over the years, though, as the Mustang and the Chevrolet Camaro were freshened and upgraded, the look of the big Dodge has remained largely consistent since its 2008 debut. For 2015, the Challenger has received a big freshening, boasting strongly revised front and rear ends and (finally, finally, finally) a redesigned interior.
Let's talk about that new cabin first. It's basically been plucked directly from the redesigned Charger, and boasts the same seven-inch IP display. The center stack's miserable, last-gen display has been replaced by an expansive, 8.4-inch UConnect system. Material quality should see a solid boost with the new cabin, as well.
The exterior, meanwhile, sees a revised front fascia with LED halo lights, as well as new grille inserts. A functional shaker hood scoop is a must-have extra on the V8 models, while the back of the car is highlighted by a new set of LED taillights that don't use the "Racetrack" design of Dodge's other models.

SRT back to Dodge, Dart SRT, new Challenger, Charger and Caravan's death outlined in 5-yr plan

Tue, 06 May 2014

The onslaught of news from Fiat Chrysler's layout of five-year plans continued with Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis this morning, including the unexpected announcement that SRT was coming back into the fold.
After just a few years existing as an independent entity within the Fiat Chrysler universe, an unceremonious press release hit in conjunction with today's lineup of announcements, saying "the SRT family of vehicles will be consolidated under the Dodge brand." Group CEO Sergio Marchionne thanked SRT headman Ralph Gilles for his dedication to the high-performance wing, calling out is efforts in expanding the vehicle lineup and including more customized models. He did not reference disappointing SRT Viper sales today, but we sense there's a bit of subtext.
With the SRT reunion at Dodge, it's appropriate that some of the most exciting product announcements for the next five years have to do with upcoming performance products. First out of the gate will be a refresh for that flagging Viper in 2015, which comes as little surprise.

Watch this Dodge Viper get clawed to death

Tue, 07 Jan 2014

There's a scene in the James Bond movie, Casino Royale, where Daniel Craig's Agent 007 is captured by villain Le Chiffre, played by Mads Mikkelsen. Le Chiffre tortures Bond in a scene that is rather difficult to watch (especially for blokes) and impossible to describe on these digital pages (Google at your own risk). This video is the automotive equivalent of the Casino Royale torture scene.
It shows a Dodge Viper - a late, first-generation GTS judging by the center-exit exhausts - getting assaulted by a giant piece of heavy equipment. The large claw shows no mercy on the V10-powered sports car, rending its muscular curves into pieces and then running it over, just for good measure. It's a painful video to watch (and hear!), made worse because we don't know what the Viper did to deserve such a fate. About a third of the way through the video, the cameraman indicates that the man with the claw is a new operator from Chrysler, and it appears there may be some fire damage, but beyond that, we don't have much to go on.
Scroll down for the video but be warned, it isn't for the faint of heart.
