1966 Dodge Dart Gt Convertible 2-door 4.5l on 2040-cars
Walla Walla, Washington, United States
I restored this convertible as a keeper for myself but find myself needing to sell because of family obligations, My loss your gain! this dart doesn't have any rust and never did. This was one of the most solid cars I have ever started with. All floors were taken to bare metal and painted with por 15 as a preventitive measure, The body was prepared and painted with a beatiful color called Huckleberrry pearl coat, wich is a deep purple that turnss to Dark blue in the right light due to all the blue pearl in the paint. It was squirted with PPG base coat clear coat (2021 clear not the cheap stuff). The interior was redone using legendary interiors. The convertible top, well liner, and top boot are also brand new. The rally wheels on this car were sandblasted and powder coated in "chrome" powder coating and brand new trim rings and lugnuts installed along with a new set of cooper cobra tires. The engine and tranny were removed, cleaned,detailed,painted, the freeze plugs replaced, alll bolt on's replaced(fuel pump,belts,hoses,etc), valve covers and air cleaner were finished in wrinkle finish, 2bbl carb was rebuilt, and exhaust manifols were sandblasted and ceramic painted in cast iron paint. The dash was completely removed and powder coated in a satin black finish and the guage cluster and plastic panels were repainted in silver and satin black and reinstalled.. The exhaust system is all new and was done with 21/2" pipe and dynamax welded steel mufflers, and has a deep throaty sound that makes people think that the motor is much bigger than it really is. The front suspension is rebuilt with new poly urethane bushings and the covertible weatherstrip is new. Now for the negative---The original radio does not work, The tail light housings are pitted, as all of them are(I picked through 8 sets and took the best ones), and outer door handles have some very minor pitting. These are the only things that I know to be wrong with this car. Please bid with confidence, as this is a really nice car, one of the nicest you will ever find. The work is all done and its ready for fun!

Dodge Scat Packages add Mopar performance upgrades in three stages
Wed, 06 Nov 2013Dodge has revealed what it calls Scat Package Stage Kits that enhance the performance of the Charger and the Challenger equipped with the 5.7-liter V8, and the Dart equipped with the turbocharged 2.4-liter inline four-cylinder engine. The Scat Packs use Mopar performance parts that also can be bought separately. Most of the upgrades increase engine output, but Dodge somehow manages to not specifically mention the power gains associated with each Scat Pack.
The three Scat Packs offered for the V8-powered cars focus on higher power ratings, and each stage comes complete with a unique engine-management calibration to optimize output. Stage one comes with a cold-air intake and a cat-back exhaust; stage two adds a performance camshaft; and stage three really gives you the goods, adding ported polished cylinder heads and performance headers.
For the Dart, the Scat Packs focus on engine, transmission, chassis and brake upgrades. Stage one will net you a cold-air intake, a short-throw shifter and slotted rotors with performance brake pads; stage two adds a cat-back exhaust system and an engine-management calibration to increase output by taking advantage of premium-octane gasoline; and stage three adds 13-inch vented brake discs up front clamped by four-piston calipers, suspension with adjustable springs and struts and performance front and rear antiroll bars.
Dodge Charger Pursuit nets quickest lap in police car test
Mon, 30 Sep 2013We wouldn't advocate trying to outrun the police, no matter what you're driving and no matter what they are. But if you see a Dodge Charger bearing down on you with blue lights flashing in your rearview mirror, you'd better think twice before attempting to flee, because the Charger Pursuit has once again emerged as the fastest police cruiser out there.
In the latest Police Vehicle Evaluation held by the Michigan State Police at Grattan Raceway, Dodge says its new Charger Pursuit AWD posted a lap time of 1:33.85. That's quicker than any of the other law enforcement vehicles present, but also makes it the quickest all-wheel-drive cruiser available to law-enforcement officials. That may not make it the quickest of all time, but that honor belongs to the rear-drive Dodge Charger Pursuit, which cuts a fraction of a second off its AWD counterpart's time with a 1:33.70. But in regions where the extra traction could come in handy, that's as negligible a difference as we've ever seen.
Of course, the annual PVE sessions held by the Michigan State Police take in to account a wide variety of performance tests, including top speed, acceleration, braking, handling, fuel economy and ergonomics. The MSP has yet to reveal its full findings from its 2014 model year tests, but we'll be sure to bring them to you when they are published.
Chrysler recalling 278,222 trucks and SUVs over bad rear axles
Thu, 14 Feb 2013Chrysler has issued a recall of 278,222 light trucks and sport utility vehicles here in the United States. The reason: bad rear axles. Specifically, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the rear axle pinion nut may lack a necessary adhesive patch, which could cause the nut to loosen. If this happens, the axle can lock up, which could cause all sorts of havoc on the road.
This is an expansion of the rear axle recall announced in October of last year, where 44,300 Ram 1500 and Dodge Dakota models were being called in. At that time, 12 accidents had been reported due to the faulty axle pinion nut.
Affected vehicles include Ram 1500 trucks from the 2009 to 2012 model years, Dodge Dakota models from the 2009 to 2011 model years, and both the Chrysler Aspen and Dodge Durango SUV twins, both from the 2009 model year only.
