1970 Dodge Dart Swinger
340, 4-speed
Original Motor/Transmission/Interior/Carpet/Windows/Half of exhaust/Hoses/Rally Wheels/trunk mat/jack, and get this, the original spare tire which has never been used.
This is the A body you have been waiting for!

I am the documented third owner of this car. I have the original title, fender tag (on car), and two build sheets. But here is something amazing, the two build sheets have the same VIN number but are different! One build sheet has the car being built as a FLEET vehicle while the second has it being built as the 340 Swinger.

Highly unusual and rare color combination of TX9 Black exterior and F8 and EF8 Green interior. This car is quite possibly the only car ever ordered with these specs. If it matters to you, Galen Govier decoded and documented the car.

A few items currently on car that are not original are; correct 1970 woodgrain steering wheel (I have original Green Steering Wheel), shift knob (I have original shift knob), brake and clutch pedals (I have both originals), Bias Ply tires and dog dish caps (I have original rally wheels), "Direct Connection" valve covers (I have the original valve covers). The car was painted in 2000. It still looks awesome and the car is straight as an arrow. There is one very small bit of bubbling at the very bottom corner of the passenger rocker panel. I have put a "ghost" flat black Bumblebee stripe on the car (because I like the way it looks). All of the above mentioned original parts will be included in the sale. In photos, car has an old air filter housing, car now has the original air cleaner housing and 340 pie tin. 

     This is a D21/D57/D91 A833, 4-speed, 3.91, Sure Grip axle car!

I have put a great deal of money into maintaining this vehicle. It has never seen rain or snow while I have owned it. In winter it is stored under cover in a dry garage. Car will come with all receipts for work done and items purchased.

It pains me greatly to sell this car, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

Don't let this car get away!

Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. This car is used, and comes with NO warranty or guarantees.
 I have described this vehicle to the best of my ability, it is being sold in used, as-is condition. Feel free to stop in and see the car for yourself. I live about 15 minutes from Newark Liberty International Airport.
I have the car advertised locally and can remove it from this listing at any time. Please, please, please,  IF YOU BID AND WIN THIS CAR, PLEASE HAVE THE FUNDS TO FOLLOW THROUGH AND BUY IT. The car will not be released until funds have cleared. Please feel free to contact me by the "ask seller a question" feature.

11 vehicles from Barrett-Jackson Las Vegas worth watching

Fri, 26 Sep 2014

This weekend will see the world's collector car crowds descend on Las Vegas, NV for one of the biggest shows on Barrett-Jackson's popular auction circuit. There are hundreds of vehicles up for bidding, ranging from a brand-new Lamborghini Aventador to a spattering of Art Deco classics and a huge swath of classic muscle cars.
While it's virtually impossible to assemble an inarguable list of the best cars coming during the three-day, 700-plus vehicle auction, we've sifted through the listings for this year's show - it was a tough assignment, we promise - and assembled a list of what we think will be some of the most interesting lots. We'll admit, it's a bit heavy on American iron, but if you browse BJ's listings, you'll come to a similar conclusion. Still, scroll down for our list of what we think will be the most interesting vehicles at the upcoming auction.

Lackluster Dodge Dart sales trigger layoffs

Thu, 06 Mar 2014

Hidden amidst the overall very positive sales figures that Chrysler released earlier this week were a few disappointments, the biggest of which may be the Dodge Dart. While Dodge sales in general were down 11 percent from a year ago, the Dart's poor figures stood out from the rest - with 4,888 units sold, the Dart was down 37 percent in February.
It comes as little surprise, then, that the automaker has announced layoffs at its assembly plant in Belvidere, IL. According to The Daily Herald, Dodge will temporarily lay off 325 workers "to balance vehicle supply with current sales demand." Put more simply, there are more Darts than buyers at the moment...
We don't think the Dodge Dart is a bad car, but it's playing in a market that offers a few standout sellers, like the Chevy Cruze, Ford Focus, Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla. According to AutoPacific analyst Dave Sullivan, as quoted by The Daily Herald, "great incentives on the Dodge Avenger" are also partly to blame for the Dart's poor showing.

2014 Dodge Journey Crossroad

Thu, 17 Jul 2014

Watchers of the auto industry will notice a theme among the formerly bankrupted American automakers, General Motors and Chrysler. There are the post-bankruptcy vehicles, and the pre-bankruptcy vehicles. The former, in the case of Chrysler, include the Jeep Grand Cherokee, as well as the 200 and 300. For GM, there's the Cadillac ATS, Chevrolet Impala and Buick Encore, among others. These vehicles have the freshest styling, with sharp exteriors and well-crafted interiors, as well as advanced powertrains and well-sorted chassis.
As for the pre-bankruptcy vehicles, they tend to be easy to spot. Most suffer from inferior driving dynamics, cheaper interiors, poorer fuel economy and often homely looks (we know, there were some decent cars before the bankruptcy, but they were pretty heavily outweighed by the bad ones). Think late, last-generation Chevrolet Impala or Chrysler 200. Increasingly, though, we're seeing vehicles that split the balance between pre- and post-bankruptcy. Vehicles like the Dodge Journey.
The Journey debuted in 2007 as a 2008 model year vehicle, meaning it should fall into the latter category. But heavily breathed upon in 2011, it now enjoys a new, 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, a big, critically acclaimed touchscreen display and in the case of today's tester, a new-for-2014 Crossroad spec.
