1958 DODGE

SWEPT WING HARD TOP


There only original once!  If there are more than twenty 1958 Dodge Swept Wing hard top’s on Earth in this original surviving condition, I would be very surprised.


Since brand new, this Dodge has only traveled 26,939 miles.   The very lucky winner will receive all the documentation meticulously recorded in two books supporting the original miles.  


This car is NOT restored, rather almost totally original.  Of course some maintenance has been performed.   The entire front end has been rebuilt, age had deteriorated bushings etc.   The brakes are new, carburetor rebuilt, the shocks are new and the tires good.


The body, chrome and glass are outstanding!  Underneath you’ll be amazed as most of these cars are long since been rusted out.   Not this one!  All the original sheet metal, frame, body supports etc. are like new.  Absolutely no patches or Bondo on this car.


The paint still holds a shine and its original.  The car has never been repainted.  However...the elderly lady who originally owned the car, opened the doors on something in the garage over and over again.  There are no dents, just lots of little chips in the paint.   The winner will receive the original color sales brochure, a copy of the original 58’ title, and current title, a hard back original 1958 Dodge maintenance book and over a $1000 of new extra parts.


Inside the car is a Time Machine.  The dash is outstandingly beautiful, and all the gauges work.  Only the clock does not.  The horns, lights, turn signals, wipers, map light, speedometer, odometer, and heater all work.  Even the cigarette lighter still works, but in over 50 years...its never lit one cigarette.


This car was a factory radio delete...and the original radio hole plugs are amazingly still in place.  The car has silky smooth factory Power Steering and a push button start 325 Cross-Over V8 engine.  It instantly fires and runs smooth as well as the Push-Button Transmission shifts effortlessly.  This car floats and drives you like you're on a cloud.


The winner can fly in and drive this car home.  It’s located in San Antonio Texas.   If you’ve got questions...I’ve got answers.  Call or write Houston Wills at 210-548-1310 between 9am-9pm CST.

2015 Dodge Charger shows off its new look in New York [w/videos]

Thu, 17 Apr 2014

With a new look inspired largely by the Dart compact, the 2015 Dodge Charger made its New York Auto Show debut today. Along with the interior and exterior changes, an eight-speed automatic becomes standard across the range.
What hasn't changed is the choice of engines under the Charger's long hood. A 3.7-liter V6 serves as the base mill, and can be had in both rear- and all-wheel-drive varieties, while the 5.7-liter V8 is an optional item and can be had in rear-drive only. Outputs are also carried over from last year, with 292 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque for the six-pot, while the Hemi V8 delivers 370 hp and 395 lb-ft of torque.
The new exterior treatment is a fairly large departure from the styling tone set by the Charger since its reintroduction to the US market in 2006. The blacked-out, crosshair grille and new headlamps are the biggest changes for 2015, though there are other, less immediately noticeable updates, such as the more rounded "Racetrack" taillamps that, like the front fascia, draw some inspiration from the Dart.

Mopar '13 Dart will roll into Chicago next week

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

We think this officially counts as a tradition. Every year going back to 2010, Mopar has rolled out a limited edition version of a popular product from the Chrysler Group portfolio. First it was the Mopar '10 Challenger, then the Mopar '11 Charger, then last year's Mopar '12 300, and this year it will be the Mopar '13 Dart, which will make its official world debut next week at the 2013 Chicago Auto Show.
Limited in number to just 500 units, the Mopar '13 Dart is no mere appearance package, though the demeanor of the Dart will be murdered out with a gloss black finish, gloss black 18-inch wheels, a set of Mopar blue stripes and a mean-looking Mopar ground effects kit. Likewise, the interior is touched up with leather seats (a blue one for the driver and black hides for the passengers), gloss black and black chrome trim, blue accent stitching, a sport pedal kit and other Mopar interior accessories.
Turning our attention back to the mechanical bits, the Mopar '13 Dart comes with the car's most powerful engine, a turbocharged 1.4-liter MultiAir four (shared with Fiat 500 Abarth) that's paired with a manual transmission. Those big, black wheels get wrapped in low profile 225/40R18 performance tires, and keeping everything in check is an upgraded brake kit with slotted rotors. The steering has also been calibrated for performance, the suspension lowered seven millimeters, and the exhaust tuned for better engine breathing.

Subaru Legacy pitted against Roadkill project cars

Fri, 05 Sep 2014

There's an evergreen debate among auto enthusiasts about whether they would prefer to have the latest and greatest car of today or a certified classic from yesteryear. What if you had to further define that, though, and the choice was between a brand new 2015 Subaru Legacy or a turbocharged Datsun 240Z with a hatch that wouldn't close? Roadkill aimed to find out that and more in one of its best videos to date.
According to the hosts, Subaru came to them, handed over some money and challenged Roadkill's project cars against its latest Legacy. The result is every bit as good (or better) than any automotive-themed show you could find on television.
Things start simple with a figure-eight race in a rodeo arena with the Subaru taking on Roadkill's 1968 Ford Ranchero, originally built for ice racing. From there the Legacy races a 1968 Dodge Charger with no windows around and off-road rally stage. Finally, the Subie goes head-to-head against the Rotsun, the aforementioned turbocharged 240Z, through an abandoned neighborhood. Plus, there's a bonus drag race challenging them all.
