 I am selling my 1976 Dodge Dart Sport, Spirit of 76 car.  This is a slant six, four speed car, A833 Transmission, with the original Hurst shifter.  This is a rare find, don't let it get away!  I haven't found solid figures on the production numbers, but have found that anywhere from 200 to 1000 of these cars were made.  Regardless, this is a rare car. The engine has a cold start knock and will need fixed or replaced at some point. Anyone knows, replacing the slant six is a one day job and the engines are cheap and plentiful. The rear is an 8 1/4. It is all original, except for the paint on the rear lower quarters, which were fixed temporarily. It will need rear lower patches if  you are going to restore.  This car was factory undercoated.  The trunk and passenger compartments are solid as seen in the pics. The frame and underside is as solid as you will find, heavily undercoated, and with no leaks or if any, very minor leaks to the interior, it is very solid.  Every light and gauge works, except the speedometer.  The ODOMETER does work and has always worked so the mileage is correct.  Even the side markers and reverse lights and interior reverse indicator are operational. The stripes were replicated, but the "spirit of 76" logos are original, but faded. The wipers and washer reservoir are intact and work. The steering wheel has NO cracks.  It has the original AM radio and has not had any panels cut for speakers.   It has new front pads and new rear shoes.  The left rear wheel cylinder is starting to seep. There is minor surface rust in some places, door hinges, under the hood. The dash has two cracks as seen in the pics. It still has the vacuum diagram, the antifreeze and coolant reservoir stickers, and the emission control sticker. The cooling system is clean with green antifreeze and an engine freeze plug heater.  The door weatherstripping is still soft and does not leak when washing the car. The vehicle has dings, scratches and chips, but no real damage, and no evidence whatsoever of major body damage. It does have filler on the left rocker panel, and the rear panel between the tail lights.  It has power steering, manual brakes.  The exhaust is original with the catalytic converter still in place. It has the original carpet in good shape. The front and rear bumpers have no dings or damage.  The grille is undamaged, but one little part at the bottom has a small warpage that is hardly noticable. All of the glass is near perfect with no chips or cracks.  The rims are Vision, Legend series, with BF Goodrich on the rear. It is a great survivor car and has brought a lot of attention when shown.  This is not a lite version, nor does it have the folding rear seat.  I found a company that has the original seat material, so it is available as is the white vinyl for the seats. I will provide the info for the seat material.  The last time I check fuel mileage, I got 23 MPG.  I will drive it to the shipper of your choice in Boise, Nampa, or Caldwell. You will be responsible for shipping, and vehicle is sold as is.  Half of the final bid will be due upon auction end via paypal, and the balance  before vehicle is shipped.  If you have any questions, please ask before bidding.

2014 Dodge Dart Blacktop hits the pavement ahead of Detroit

Tue, 07 Jan 2014

Dodge is getting ready to spread the Blacktop-themed love to the smallest member of its lineup. Last year, the automaker offered up Blacktop versions of the Avenger, Challenger, Charger, Durango, Grand Caravan and Journey. And now the Dart, too, gets its dark on for 2014, with the $295 package offered on Dart SXT models equipped with the Rallye Appearance Group. The Dart Blacktop will make its debut at the Detroit Auto Show next week.
As with the other Blacktop special-edition models, the Dart Blacktop gets glossy black accents for a "sporty, sinister look." The blacked-out treatment spreads across the 18-inch wheels to the crosshair grille, grille surround and headlamp bezels. The interior sees a similar treatment, with black and light tungsten or black and ruby red cloth to go with red accent stitching on the instrument panel, center console and seat bolsters.
For the 2014 model year, all Dart SXT and Limited models receive the 2.4-liter MultiAir2 Tigershark engine with 184 horsepower and 174 pound-feet of torque, and since the Blacktop is based on the SXT, that's the powerplant buyers of this special-edition will get, too. Expect the 2014 Dart Blacktop to hit dealers in the first quarter, and while you're waiting, feel free to read more in the official press release below.

Dodge and Jeep recalling 895k SUVs for possibility of headliner fires

Fri, 11 Jul 2014

Dodge and Jeep are announcing recalls of a total of 895,000 Durango and Grand Cherokee models worldwide from the 2011 through 2014 model years. There's a possibility that the wiring in the sun visor can short circuit and cause a fire. It specifically affects vehicles built between January 5, 2010, and December 11, 2013, and there are approximately 651,000 of them in the US, 45,700 in Canada, 23,000 in Mexico and 175,000 outside of North America.
Screws that fasten the sunvisor to the headliner may pierce wires in the visor, if the part has been removed or serviced, potentially causing a fire risk. If the wires short circuit, they could overheat and potentially combust. The automakers report three injuries caused by this defect, and according to the investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, "there may be a total of 52 unique fire incidents."
To fix the problem, Dodge and Jeep will inspect the vehicles for suspect wiring, and all of the models, whether damaged or not, will get a new sun visor spacer with a wire guide to stop the possibility of short circuits. According to the automakers' announcement, "this condition is not present in vehicles which have not had the headliner or vanity mirror serviced." They will notify affected owners, and repairs will begin in August.

Brits recreate iconic Bullitt chase scene

Tue, 13 May 2014

Recreating the famous chase scene from Bullitt has become almost an art form in its own right. We've seen it done in a music video, with scale models and even in commercials. There are few films that are as defined by a single scene as the 1968 classic. Even if you don't know a single beat of the plot, the Highland Green Ford Mustang racing a Dodge Charger through the hilly streets of San Francisco is famous. It's so well known that the Silverstone Classic has created a homage to promote its celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Mustang at this year's event in July.
Filmed around the famous UK circuit, the short film generally gets the key points of the scene right. It even has a green Volkswagen Beetle that keeps reappearing, as in the movie. Unfortunately, its Steve McQueen stand-in looks a little too old for the role. While the video shortens the chase considerably, it's still great to see these '60s behemoths leaning and sliding around the track. Scroll down for a touch of nostalgia thanks to one of the greatest scenes ever in cinema - we've got both the recreation and the original chase seen from the movie waiting for you.
