Up for sale is this awesome 1974 Plum Crazy Dodge Challenger. This car just went through a complete professional restoration, and nearly every nut and bolt is new. All rotted metal was cut out and replaced, no bondo was used on this ride. The car was just repainted, in awesome Plum Crazy metallic paint. New fiberglass hood, with hood scoop, new fiberglass bumpers, new marker lights, new weatherstrips everywhere, and new windshield.

 

Car was originally a 318, but was replaced with a rebuilt 440, that has under 10,000 miles. Everything else is new and has less than 200 miles, including: a rebuilt 727 transmission with a shift kit and B&M Quicksilver shifter, a new custom made driveshaft, and a rebuilt rear. New headers with a 3" Flowmaster exhaust. Rebuilt carb. New Champion aluminum radiator with electric cooling fan. Chrome valve covers, alternator and pullies. MSD Ignition and distributor. New gas tank, fuel lines, brake lines, master cylinder. New front and rear sway bars. Also, both center headlights were removed and replaced with a chromed out, cold ram air system with dual air filters and you really feel it when you step on the gas.

 

The interior is also completely redone. New carpet, seat covers front and rear, Grant steering wheel, headliner, custom floor mats and a new dash pad. Blue LED lighting added under seats and dash. And Blue LED streetglow around the underneath side of car, that really lights up the road.

 

Now the negatives, which are basically insignificant when compared to all of the new items on this restored classic.

The windshield wipers have stopped working. I just found out that it is an electrical issue that may possibly be corrected soon. Also, the fuel gauge does not work. The rods in the doors are not connected to the key locks, so it can not be locked from the outside- only from the inside. So there are a few little things that need to be fixed, but for what this car will be used for, they do not need to be fixed immediately to enjoy the car. A hose going to the steering box has a very small leak- I am currently working on fixing this issue.

All of the minor issues listed above are accounted for in the reserve price. 

-As you can see in these pictures, there is a small chip in the paint on the molding that is attached to the fender, not the fender. The chip is slightly touched up to the point that it is barely noticeable. All other paint is flawless and just about show quality, no dents, no scratches.

- Also, although the vinyl top is new, it has a couple of small wrinkles near the back. You will have to look very closely to even notice.

 

The reserve is set very reasonably. I have done my very best to list even the smallest issues, so there will be absolutely no surprises when you view the car. I purchased this vehicle mid-way through the summer last year.  Since that time, my financial situation has changed. Over 40k has been spent to rebuild the car. Getting divorced last year has really sent my finances for a loop! I need to part with some things I really enjoy, but do not need to survive.  My loss is your gain. Good luck!

Are you the Dodge Dart SRT4?

Tue, 08 Jan 2013

Dodge has just confirmed that it will be bringing its newest Dart variant, the Dart GT, to Detroit next week, but we're still in the dark about when we'll see a truly hotted-up SRT4 version. But now, by way of the rumormill anyway, we've got at least one proposed, potentially Dodge-based rendering to light our way.
Seen here is what would appear to be a design sketch of the SRT4 Dart. Obviously the image that has surfaced is of rather low-resolution, but there's at least some evidence to support that it may be legitimate. In the original picture, one can just make out the name Tim Doyle in the lower right corner. As it turns out, Tim Doyle's name is also watermarked on the final design image for the 2011 Dodge Durango Citadel Black & Tan, a model that was shown at SEMA in 2010.
Of course, even if this really is the work of Doyle, there's nothing to say that this image isn't one of a great many potential looks for the future SRT4. In fact, the departure of the cross-hair grille from the Dodge's nose seems like it could be a hard sell, though we do, naturally, dig the sleek hood scoop and the bulked up wheel/tire combination.

Dodge lets us drive 100-years' worth of history [w/videos]

Thu, 03 Jul 2014



A raft of important production models from the last hundred years were available for me to either drive or ride in.
Dodge is 100 years old this year. So, as happened on Ford's recent centennial, the 50-year birthday of the Porsche 911, and others, the company has an excuse to trot out the highlights of its history next to its upcoming model lineup, and declare that "these are the fruits of the Dodge Boys' tree whose roots have grown strong." Or something like that. Never so hampered by marketing skepticism that I'll pass up the opportunity to burn someone else's rubber, I was happy to drive out to Meadow Brook Hall in Rochester Hills, MI - former grand estate of the Dodge family - to hear the spiel.
