1973 Dodge Dart V8 (318),auto,p/s, Disc Brakes, Running/ Driving Project, Cheap on 2040-cars
Las Vegas, Nevada, United States
|
Up for auction is a nice 1973 Dodge Dart PROJECT car. It has a V8, 318 with a 904 automatic trans. The car came equipped with Power Steering, and front disc brakes. The car runs and drives but, had previously been sitting for many years before I bought the car. I flushed the tank and lines, did some brake work, fluid change, and some carb work and she fired right up and ran well. Prior to that she was parked her in Nevada for many years. The car runs and drives but, I suggest that you trailer the car to it's destination. The car needs to be gone through before any long trips. The body is very straight on the car, and the only rust issues are on the roof from the old vinyl top that was on the car. The under side looks great, the trunk looks great, and that is rare with these A body style cars. The car will be sold to the highest bidder and there is NO RESERVE on the car!! I have a clear title in hand for the car. Engine/ Trans: The engine is a non numbers matching 318 that seems to run pretty well. She has a 2 barrel carb sitting on top of the engine. The motor starts right up, no knocking or smoking at all and idles well. I do not know any history on the motor that is in the car. I have driven the car around the neighborhood but, that as far as I have test drove her. She drove decent, stopped straight and overall not bad. I had to disconnect the power steering though as the steering box was leaking from the pitman arm area. I left everything in place, just pulled the belt off. The trans is a nice shifting 904 that seems to work just fine. I do not see any leaks from the motor of trans after she sits, which is a nice surprise. Interior/ Exterior: The interior is all there just needs some TLC as the summer sun did dry everything out. The seats do need to be recovered, needs new carpet and some new door panels to spruce her up. The doors open and close fine, windows roll up and down fine. The lights work on the car, blinkers work, and the running lights work. On the dash the speedo is not working, and the gas gauge is not working either. The door buzzer did work but, that was disconnected...drove me crazy. The exterior is very straight overall with just a small hole in the lower left quarter that was a previous rust repair. There are very few dents on the car and the car has it's original sheet metal. The car will need a new vinyl top, and some body work done to the roof as she has scaling and holes from rust. The roof can be repaired as she is not to far gone yet. The rims and tires are old but, the hold air just fine and are good rollers. The car has a fender tag, if you want the info just email me. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me, and I will respond ASAP. The car is a PROJECT type car! The winning bidder is required to pay a $500 non refundable deposit due within 24 hours of winning the car! The car is being sold " As Is" due to it's age. The deposit must be paid through Paypal. The remaining balance is due within 3 days of the auction closing, and the final payment may be made with a Cashiers check, wire transfer or cash in person. The car must be picked up within 2 weeks of the auction closing, and my zip code is 89131 for shipping purposes. Please email me with any questions, and good luck!! |

Dodge Dart falls short of Consumer Reports Recommended, Caddy XTS and Lincoln MKS, too
Thu, 22 Nov 2012The Dodge Dart, Cadillac XTS and Lincoln MKS all failed to earn a "Recommended" rating from Consumer Reports. When it came to the compact Dart, the organization's testers thought the vehicle offered a quiet cabin, solid-feeling chassis and nimble suspension, but the new model ultimately fell short of the coveted rating due to powertrain issues. The institute's reviewers found the base 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine to be underpowered and noted "drivability issues" when the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four was paired with the optional dual-clutch transmission (some of our editors disliked it paired with the six-speed manual). CR also dinged the latter powerplant for sounding "raspy." For what it's worth, we think the forced-induction engine offers an excellent and playful exhaust note, but that's just us.
As for the XTS, CR lauded the car for its luxurious cabin, but the vehicle's experience was dulled by its finicky CUE infotainment interface. Overall, the big Cadillac scored much higher than its cross-town rival from Lincoln. While testers found the American luxury sedan to offer a quiet ride and quality fit and finish, they felt the MKS delivered a "cramped driving position, ungainly handling, uncomposed ride, and limited visibility." Ouch. At the end of the day, both cars fell short of rivals from Japan, Germany and Korea. Check out the full press release below with more details, along with CR's musings on the Chevrolet Spark and Lexus ES.
Chevy Corvette Stingray defeating rivals where it matters most
Wed, 16 Jul 2014Everything is coming up roses for the award-winning Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, as new data from the North American Dealers Association dissected by GM Authority reveals that America's sports car is handily outselling two of its more expensive rivals.
Through June of 2014, the NADA notes that the Corvette has rung up 17,744 sales, handily besting the Porsche 911 and positively spanking the SRT Viper. Of course, you're sitting there thinking, "Corvette is outselling the much more expensive Porsche and Viper. Sky blue, water wet." But what's impressive here is just how thoroughly the Chevrolet is beating its two rivals, with this data serving as a testament to just how popular the seventh-generation sports car has become.
So far this year, Porsche has managed to move 5,169 911s, according to NADA. Considering that the base model starts at nearly $15,000 more than the most heavily optioned Stingray, and that Porsche owners have a vast, expensive options catalogue to select from, Stuttgart's sales are still plenty impressive in relation to the nearly 18,000 Corvettes sold.
Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).
