Soda Springs, Idaho, United States

I am selling my 1971 Dodge Challenger at a low reserve.  My employment has changed and some of my toys must go.  This has  been my baby for the past 5 years.  It has been stored in its own climate controlled room in my home since I purchased it.  I purchased the car 5 years ago from an individual in the San Francisco area.  The car had spent most of its life in Denver Colorado where he purchased it I believe in the late 1990s.  He lived in Denver and took a road trip in the challenger to San Francisco a year before I bought it and decided he like the are and stayed there.  The car is painted in the beautiful Sassy Grass Green.  The car was painted about three years ago.  The paint is very nice but does have a few chips.  I love to drive this car and it does not sit much other than winter.  I do not drive it in the snow or on rainy days.  All gauges, lights, wipers, heater, etc.. work on the car.  The mileage is just under 45K and it drives like it has 45K but the car is too fun to drive so I doubt it is actual.  The interior is nice, seats, headliner, door panels are all nice and the dash is nice with no cracks.  The trunk and undercarriage are solid and in great shape.  The car has the snorkel fiberglass hood.  I have the original hood and springs if the new owner would like them.  The vinyl top is in nice condition but there is a little bubbling under the top in a few areas.  The engine runs great and has a ton of power but does run a bit on the hot side if it idles long on warm days the transmission shifts smooth.  I was going to have the water pump replaced but it has not been enough of an issue to worry abou,t  the windows have been tinted and it looks good but there is a small spot on the drivers window down low that has pulled slightly.  the car has a nice CD player.  This is a beautiful car and gets thumbs up and attention everywhere it goes.  I take it to all of the local cruise ins and car shows.  It always shows well.  This car is fun to drive has power steering and 3:73 gears so it is very nice to cruise on backroads and/or the free way at freeway speeds.  I have attached a link to youtube with a walk around video of the car      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_oXOn3ykLXA     The tires are muddy in the video because I had to take it thru a mud puddle to get it out of my basement for pics.

If you need additional info or pics please let me know.

MotorWeek proves '90s were awesome with Supra, Stealth, RX-7, Corvette, 968, 300ZX comparo

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

Oh, the heady days of 1993, back when the Clinton Presidency was just getting underway, and it seemed like every hot new rock band was coming out of Seattle. Sports cars in the US had finally shaken off the shackles that slowed them during the '70s and '80s, and you could buy any number of legitimately quick vehicles again. MotorWeek recently went digging into its archives to find this six-model test from 1993 showing off some of the best semi-affordable performance coupes that money could buy at the time, and it's priceless.
Featuring the 1994 model year Toyota Supra in twin-turbo guise and MY 1993 versions of the Porsche 968, Nissan 300ZX TT, Mazda RX-7, Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo and Chevrolet Corvette LT-1, MotorWeek definitely covered all of the bases. One thing that might surprise younger readers is these cars' performance. The video only provides 0-60 acceleration times, but several of these vehicles would still be considered pretty potent today - over 20 years since going on sale. The Supra is especially impressive, hitting 60 miles per hour in just 5 seconds. Even today, that's nothing to sneeze at.
Given their performance potential and still-attractive looks, it's amazing that some of these coupes are old enough to drink now. The progress of interior design and safety equipment in the intervening years is pretty shocking, though. In most of these models, having two airbags is touted as a big deal. Scroll down to watch a Throwback Thursday blast from the past about some of the '90s best sports cars.

Detroit 3 small cars lay an egg in latest Consumer Reports reliability study

Tue, 28 Oct 2014

Consumer Reports has released its Annual Auto Reliability Survey and the results are, in a word, interesting. While we already covered the score-damaging effects of infotainment systems, there's another big angle to the data that's getting some attention - the utterly dismal scores of the Detroit Three's small car offerings.
The turbocharged Dodge Dart and Chevrolet Cruze, as well as the Ford Fiesta were their respective brands' lowest-scoring models, a stat that's made worse by the fact that the American automakers finished 25th, 21st and 23rd, respectively.
That's not acceptable for The Detroit Free Press' auto critic, Mark Phelan, who has penned a scathing critique of the D3's small car reliability scores, arguing that GM, Ford and Chrysler are "out of excuses."

Mopar is heading to the SEMA show in Las Vegas with a fleet of customized vehicles that appeal to enthusiasts of all stripes. There's a Dodge Viper ACR concept that follows in the lineage of the supercar's great road racing past, and a custom Ram ProMaster that might just be the ultimate outdoor party machine.
We got an inside look at Mopar's cars that will be on display at the show, which also include a Dodge Challenger T/A concept, two crazy Jeeps and a Ram 2500 Outdoorsman that could change the way you camp. While these are some of our favorites, Mopar is bringing plenty to SEMA, so let us know your top choices in the comments section.
