Year:1970 Mileage:11878
Location:

Kamloops, British Columbia, Canada

Kamloops, British Columbia, Canada

This is the first time I have ever offered this car for sale. My 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T Plum Crazy Hemi Convertible clone car. It runs with a crate 528 cubic inch aluminum heads Hemi engine with 610 horsepower and 650 ft-lbs of torque. Custom built 727 automatic transmission, 8 3/4  sure grip posi traction, 3:23 rear axle, power disc brakes with electric vacuum pump and power steering. IT is loaded with all new rubber door and trunk seals, black side stripe decals, black stripe on R/T hood, 426 metal emblems on hood, dual painted mirrors, flip top gas cap, rally gauges, tack, and power top. A cost of over $120,000.00 was spent building this beautiful show car just prior to me driving it about 1900 miles and that was a very cool once in a life time kind of experienc and pleasure. It's not any day or every day when a Hemi challenger convertible pulls up to the gas pumps, in fact every time I did , before I turned the engine off there was a croud gathered around it.The tack and speed odometer work well and the total milage registered on the odometer is 11878. This may be the actual miles on the body but I'am not sure of that but of course by looking at it you would think it had 78 miles. I'am getting into my senior years now and with regrets due to health issues I'am forced to sell this car as well as other cars that I own. The car is located on British Columbia,Canada and it can be sold with either a USA registration or a Canadian registration, I can do that for the buyer. The seller shall and will make every responsible effort to disclose any known defects associated with this vehicle at the buyer's request prior to the close of the auction.All the winter photos were taken in Nov 2013 and it was about 10 below zero thats why I did not snap the toneau cover down tightly, if it were sommer then it would fit nicely.Now that I have decided to sell this car there is two seprate locals gents that are trying to put a deal together ,so if any one of them come up with the funds before the auction runs its course then I do reserve the right to stop the auction and sell it locally.

Ron Burgundy calls Durango a 'terrible car,' yet his ads help sales climb by 59% [w/videos]

Fri, 22 Nov 2013

Ron Burgundy was put on this planet to do one thing: to read the news. If that ever falls through, though, the womanizing, scotch-drinking anchorman could have a great career just as a Dodge salesman. Bloomberg points out that sales of the 2014 Dodge Durango have rocketed up 59 percent in the first month of Chrysler's funny new ad campaign (which began in early October). But then again, the entire year has been strong for the big SUV, with year-over-year sales increases in the double and even triple digit percentages - including an increase of 117 percent in August.
Of course, the Durango has also received a wealth of new content and a freshened look for 2014 in addition to the Burgundy campaign, and that has to be helping close sales, too. Whether or not the spots themselves are leading to more sales may be a moot point, since they are definitely getting plenty of attention. Almost two months into the marketing tie-up between Dodge and the movie Anchorman 2, Dodge's YouTube videos have received well over seven million views. More than just YouTube shorts and television commercials, the Durango has even received late-night attention, including when Will Ferrell showed up in character as Ron Burgundy on Conan earlier this week.
In the interview, he calls the Durango a "terrible car" that "cracked in half," a joke that probably had Dodge ad execs squirming uncomfortably in their Barcaloungers. Scroll down to watch the Conan interview as well as some of our favorite Burgundy-pitched Durango ads. And there's still plenty of time to "touch" Ron to win a new Durango.

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.

2013 Dodge Dart GT offers subtle menace in compact form

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

Dodge has already shared all of the relevant information about its all-new 2013 Dart GT, but it wasn't until now that we've seen the car, live and in person. The slightly meaner front fascia and bigger wheels look great on the Dodge, and the red-on-black perforated seats are sporting in an aftermarket sort of way.
To recap: The Dart GT also gets a bit more power, using a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine to make 184 horsepower and 174 pound-feet of torque. A starting price of $20,995 will get you LED taillights, dual exhaust, an 8.4-inch touchscreen and a 7.0-inch TFT display.
Feel free to re-acquaint yourselves with the full Dodge Dart GT information in the press release below, or have a leisurely browse through our gallery of live images.
