1969 Dodge Dart
2 Door Hardtop / Straight Body / Disc Brakes / 383 + 4speed Included
I have for sale a '69 Dodge Dart. It is one of the straightest unrestored Mopars I have ever seen. The only rust on this car is on the floor. The passenger side floor footwell area has a hole about 4 inches wide and other smaller spots around it. The other pans have surface rust but feel solid. The trunk pan is really nice, but has a few minor pin hole spots of rust. The rest of the car is rock solid like a barn find.
The only body damage is a small dent on the passenger side fender behind the wheel well and some cutting was done on the k frame for some reason (shown in the pictures). Windows roll up and down nicely. Doors and trunk open and close like it would off the showroom floor. Glass is good. Bumpers are straight. Getting hard to find an unrestored Mopar in this kind of shape. As you can see it has 1967 Dart GT badges on the fenders and on the door panels. As far as I know it is not an original GT. The hood is from a 1968 Dart. It is cut out with a scoop. I have a good 1969 Dart hood that comes with the car. It has a few hail dings.
The car had a 318 in it when I bought it. The motor was in rough shape and not original to the car so I sold it and planned on making a big block clone out of the car. It comes with a 1964 383 motor with 516 closed chamber heads and a 4bbl intake. It also comes with an A833 4 Speed transmission, the clutch petal assembly, and a hurst shifter. Condition of these parts is unknown. I have not used, tested, or taken them apart. They both turn over okay by hand. The car also has power disc brakes on the front. Big bolt pattern. The previous owner installed traction bars on it as well. Rear end is the standard 7-1/4.
Interior is all there minus carpet and headliner. Dash is in good shape. I'm selling the car with two sets of front seats. The car came with bucket seats, but they are not original to the car. I also have the middle console for the car. I bought a nice bench seat for it, which is in the car now. It needs to be cleaned up a little bit. No tears. The back seat looks to be original. It will need recovering but is usable.
Great project. Good start for any classic car enthusiast. This car would make a great start for a GTS clone or even a pro street or drag car. Not many cars can outrun a big block Dart. Clear title. I will send more information and more pictures on request. Thanks for looking.

Motorweek goes retro with '80s hot hatch shootout
Mon, 03 Nov 2014Motorweek's decades of history on television make it the perfect medium to look back into the automotive past and see how things are different now. It recently added old road test videos to its YouTube channel of the Acura NSX and Toyota Supra, as well as the Ferrari F40. For one of its newest flashback clips, Motorweek has exhumed an affordable five-car challenge of 1986's premiere hot hatches.
By today's standards, this is an eclectic field that features fondly remembered classics like the Volkswagen GTI 16-valve and Acura Integra. However, it also throws in some nearly forgotten contenders like the Dodge Colt Turbo and Ford Escort GT. The angular Toyota Corolla FX16 GT-S rounds out the group.
It's fascinating to watch Motorweek run the quintet through the slalom, down the drag strip and on various roads. What's most striking in this clip is the difference in the definition of a performance car between then and now. With its 16-valve, 1.8-liter four-cylinder, the GTI is the burliest of the contenders with 123 horsepower, but it still takes 8.8 seconds to reach 60 miles per hour. By today's standards, that would make it a plain-jane economy car, and not even a particularly quick one.
Dodge offers 100 years of solid advice in new ad
Fri, 18 Apr 2014This is a cool ad. Dodge, which is celebrating its centennial this year, recruited some of its peers to see what you should and shouldn't do in life. Of course, some are obvious - don't complain, learn from your mistakes and live for now.
Then again, some are less obvious. Some, actually, are downright awesome. Towards the end, each piece of advice is interspersed with clips of Dodge's redesigned Challenger smoking its tires. Really, this ad feels like it'd be worthy of a Super Bowl spot. This commercial's personal nature is really in keeping with some of the big game's most interesting ads, like the Imported From Detroit commercial, the Farmer ad and Maserati's surprise clip from this year's game.

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.
