1970 Dodge Charger 500- 440 V8 With 727 Automatic on 2040-cars
Cleveland, Ohio, United States
|
You are bidding on an unrestored 1970 Dodge Charger 500. This car was born with a 383 (big block car) and currently has a 440 in it. Obviously this is not a number matching car. Has a 727 automatic with a console shifter. The car is very complete. Comes with the original bucket seats and rear bench seat (not in the car but pictured) that would need re-upholstered. There are different aftermarket bucket seats in it now. The car comes with an extra original Chrome bumper in nice condition (these go for over $1k on Ebay alone and were a 1 year run as the 69 and 71 had very different bumpers/grills). The 440 that is in the car now runs pretty strong and sounds exactly like you would expect it. It does have a slight exhaust leak in one of the headers. It has an Edelbrock aftermarket intake manifold and a recently replaced Holly Carb (no details on either, they were on the car when I purchased 3 years ago). I drove it about 30 minutes to where it sits now last fall with no problems other than non-stop "thumbs up" from all the guys I passed on the highway. The tires have never had any air added in the last 3 years and sits on the Magnum 500 wheels. I am not certain of the mileage on the car as the odometer stopped before I bought it. the body seems pretty straight and solid. Some pictures of the frame rails included. Its about as solid of an unrestored project Mopar you will find. There are not many unrestored that are this complete (of course, not original motor in this case) and in this good a starting condition. If you bring a battery, you can drive it home (within reasonable distance for safety of course since the breaks would need a good once over). Its been in a garage ever since I have owned it (again 3 years). The guy I bought it from in Indiana had it in a storage unit the whole time he owned it. There is not much of any surface rust. For the winning bidder I will also throw in the following restoration book written specifically for the 1970 Charger:
The reserve is set low for this rare piece of Mopar history. I will require a $500 deposit at the close of bidding. You will be responsible for pick-up or arranging for shipping. The car has a clear title in my name in my possession. Nothing funny about the title or ownership here. No bill or sale or any of that non-sense needed. If the car does not sell here, I will likely take it to Mopar Nats in Columbus and sell it. Get it now before the Mopar nation gets their hands on it. |

Chrysler to accelerate production of 2013 Ram and V6 engines
Fri, 16 Nov 2012Chrysler is adding a third shift at its Warren Truck plant to meet demand for the new 2013 Ram pickup. And with tight supplies of its Pentastar V6, the company is also boosting output at its Mack Engine plant.
The expansions will add 1,250 jobs and are part of a $238 million investment by Chrysler in the Detroit area. Warren's third shift will begin work sometime in the spring, a Chrysler rep told Automotive News. Mack's increased Pentastar production a could include both 3.6 and 3.2-liter engines.
The company says it also plans to invest $40 million in its Trenton Engine plant to allow for production of a 3.2-liter V6 as well as the Tigershark inline-four for the upcoming Jeep Liberty replacement.
Chrysler earns $1.7B in 2012, revises product plans for US
Wed, 30 Jan 2013Hot on the heels of Ford's earnings announcement for the year that was, Chrysler today reported a 2012 net income of $1.7 billion, up substantially from the comparatively minuscule $183 million profit earned in 2011 when it repaid its US government loans.
Chrysler's good year ended with an excellent fourth quarter that saw net income rise 68 percent from $225 million in 2011 to $378 million. Where are all those extra earnings coming from? Market share, which Chrysler saw increase to 11.4% last year on sales of 1.65 million vehicles. In fact, the Auburn Hills, MI-based automaker out-paced the industry's market growth of 13 percent last year with sales up 21 percent for the year.
The company also revealed an updated product plan for its Chrysler Group and Fiat brands that looks all the way out to 2016. It's an updated version of the plan introduced in 2009 shortly after Fiat took control of the American automaker, and includes such new additions as an Alfa Romeo model, likely the 4C, to be introduced in the US this year, as well five more Alfa models by 2016. Likewise, Fiat will be growing by an additional seven models in the coming few years.
Dodge hoping Fast & Furious appearance gives Dart a sales jolt [w/video]
Tue, 28 May 2013According to Automotive News, Chrysler is hoping Fast & Furious 6 will be kind to the Dodge Dart. While the compact sedan doesn't actually show up in the film, Dodge has partnered up with the movie franchise for a new ad featuring the Dart.
Chrysler hasn't exactly seen the high sales numbers it was originally hoping for with the new sedan, thanks in part to a couple of missteps. For starters, most early-production vehicles were only offered with a manual transmission. Analysts believe Chrysler squandered around 95 percent of potential Dart sales because automatic transmission options weren't immediately available.
Right now, the Dodge Dart rakes 19th among compact cars, pulling down 31,064 sales through April. Last month was the company's strongest, with 8,099 units moving off of dealer lots. Unfortunately, the model has also been handicapped by its older sister, the Avenger. With Chrysler throwing heavy incentives at the aging sedan, many consumers have taken advantage of a better deal with the slightly larger, more powerful Avenger.
