Nice 1973 Dodge Charger.  Original "Mopar Yellow Twist" or "Top Banana" color last year.  New rocker panels and metal throughout.  Interior is not too bad for original.  The dash is cracked, the headliner is ripped.  All doors, windows, trunk, work fine.

Rebuilt 318 bored .030" over with new pistons and rings and 360 heads.  New mild cam.  Edelbrock intake and 650 CFM  mechanical four barrel.  Dual exhaust with glass packs.  OEM manifolds.  It has a righteous sound.  It idles great, and really opens up at 3,000 RPM.  Clean title, 115,500 miles.  Gauges, speedometer work.  Taillights work.  New break lines throughout.  It can bark the tires of course.

This is the car to have, it is a runner or driver.  It really turns heads.  You could commute to work in it.  You can take it to church in the morning, to the track and race it, then take the wife/girlfriend to a fancy restaurant or a drive in at night.  You could do a frame off resto on it as well.  In frame off, these are about $25,000.  The motor is done, just dress it up with valve covers etc.  

The Dodge Charger held on to the muscle car era, and was the first to come back to life.  These original are getting rare.  In this price range extremely rare.  The value will only go up.  This has the extremely rare bubble hood.  

This is American knowledge and power at its height.  No metric on this, no computer, just power and style.  It has the coke bottle body style, Mopar "B".  No AC, no power steering, brakes or windows.  AM radio.

Chrysler recalling 700k minivans and Dodge Journey for ignition switch woes

Tue, 01 Jul 2014

General Motors isn't the only automaker with ignition switch problems. Chrysler is fighting it too and is now announcing a recall of 695,957 examples worldwide of the Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans from the 2008-2010 model years, plus the 2009-2010 Dodge Journey.
According to a statement from Chrysler, the models have a bad wireless ignition node detent ring in the ignition switch, making it possible for drivers to appear to have the key in the "Run" position but for the spring not to fully engage. It can then slip back to the "Accessory" position and shut the car off. If this happens, the vehicle loses power steering, brake boost and the airbags.
There is some disparity about the number of vehicles affected under this recall. In its statement, Chrysler claims that it covers 525,206 vehicles in the US, 102,892 in Canada, 25,591 in Mexico and 42,268 elsewhere. However, the recall announcement posted by The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration lists an estimated 438,109 vehicles in the US. Chrysler spokesperson Nick Cappa told Autoblog via email that the reasoning for the different figures "will become clear at a later date."

Chrysler's Jefferson North plant builds 5-millionth SUV [w/video]

Thu, 15 Aug 2013

Chrysler's Jefferson North Assembly Plant opened in 1992 for production of the first Jeep Grand Cherokee, but in the subsequent years, the Detroit plant has gone on to produce some of the company's biggest SUVs including the Jeep Commander and Dodge Durango. Earlier this week, the plant produced its five-millionth SUV, which, fittingly, was a Grand Cherokee.
Celebrating the plant's five-millionth unit, the silver 2014 Grand Cherokee was promptly donated to the USO. In addition to this milestone SUV, Chrysler also had a near-perfect 1993-95 ZJ Grand Cherokee on hand for the photo op. Scroll down for the Chrysler press release as well as a video showing some of the speeches from the celebration.

Chrysler extending production of current Dodge Avenger, Jeep Wrangler, Grand Caravan

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Are you hesitant to pull the trigger on a brand new Dodge Avenger in hopes that a new one will be coming? Well, don't hold your breath. According to The Detroit News, Chrysler will be extending production of the current Avenger sedan through the end of 2015.
Originally, we heard that the company would kill the Avenger to better focus its midsize sedan efforts on the Chrysler 200 replacement. But then new reports stated there would indeed be an Avenger successor, and that we could see it as early as next January. This Detroit News report cites supplier sources confirming the extension of Avenger production, though Chrysler has not released an official statement on the matter.
These same suppliers say that the current Jeep Wrangler will live on through mid-2018 - that's right, another five years. The Detroit News reports that a replacement for the iconic, go-anywhere Jeep was due in mid-2016.
