Stock exh manifolds and Y pipe feed into half of a Dart/Duster 2.5" complete exhaust front to back. Mopar electronic ignition system. Transmission had a mild shift kit and a custom 1800 rpm converter minus the lock up system installed. Driveshaft has new U-joints and balanced. Rear end is a 8 1/4 that was rebuilt with 2.94 gears and a Sure-Grip. New leaf springs and bushings. New factory type rear sway bar and brackets. All new gas shocks. Firm Feel rebuilt power steering box. Stock power steering pump runs quiet no leaks. Aluminum ISO bushing replacements for the K-member. Stock interior including original floor mats.

Original owner bought it new in Salem, Ohio. He put 22,000 miles on it over about 20 years obviously never seeing snow. Its rust free and every nut and bolt I touched came out like it was just put in the day before. It passed between two other owners before I got it with 24,000 miles on it. It now has close to 39,000 miles on it. Everything I did to it was pure Mopar and only done to improve performance or handling without detracting from its originality. Other than the wheels and tires it still looks factory stock. Though it steers and handles way better than the day it left the factory. Im sure Im forgetting something just email me with any questions you might have. Feel free to inspect it before hand or have someone come and look at it for you if youre too far from me. I haven't been active lately on Moparts.com but several Ohio members have seen the car and can vouche for its condition. My member name is "mopowergtx"

Total auto recalls already on record pace in 2014
Tue, 08 Apr 2014If you've noticed that there have been more recalls than usual this year, you may be on to something. According to a report from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the US market is on pace to break a record for recalls. In 2013, 22 million cars were recalled. We're only a third of the way through 2014, though, and we've already halved that figure, with 11 million units recalled. That's wild.
Considering the past few months, it shouldn't be a surprise that General Motors is leading the charge, with six million of the 11 million units recalled coming from one of the General's four brands. Between truck recalls, CUV recalls and the ignition switch recall, 2014 hasn't been a great year for GM.
Other recall leaders include Nissan (one million Sentra and Altima sedans), Honda (900,000 Odyssey minivans), Toyota (over one million units in a few recalls), Volkswagen (150,000 Passat sedans), Chrysler (644,000 Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs) and most recently, Ford (434,000 units, the bulk of which were early Ford Escape CUVs). So while it's been a bad year for GM so far, its competitors aren't doing too well, either.
Chrysler releases Born Maker ad campaign for 2015 200 [w/video]
Fri, 06 Jun 2014
"The 200 sets the benchmark, for us, on how we plan to develop cars going forward." - Marissa Hunter
Is the 2015 Chrysler 200 the most important new product for Fiat Chrysler Automobiles? While it is certainly debatable, we'd be strongly inclined to say "yes." As the first competent midsize sedan that Chrysler has released in the better part of two decades, the new 200 is absolutely crucial to achieving the brand's goal of becoming FCA's "mainstream" manufacturer.
NYT profiles Blue Nelson, a reclusive and interesting CA car collector
Thu, 25 Sep 2014If it weren't for his Dale Earnhardt Sr. looks, Blue Nelson could be one one of those soft-spoken, nondescript guys whom you meet briefly and never learn much more about. However, as The New York Times shows in a recent profile and video, behind closed doors, Nelson keeps a fascinatingly eclectic collection of automotive oddities and vintage bicycles.
While his main career is in the movie industry, Nelson's other job is as a car hunter. He takes on clients searching for a specific model and helps them find and restore the dream vehicle that they're after. Hiring him takes some dedication, though, because Nelson doesn't advertise his services. "If people want to find me, they know how to find me," he says in the video.
Beyond being an automotive private detective, Nelson has a fantastically varied collection of vehicles of his own. He likes to have models that people don't usually see, and his garage holds a classic Chrysler New Yorker and an extremely rare Rometsch convertible. Although, the one that means the most to him is the 1962 Porsche 356 convertible that Blue came home in as a baby. Check out the video to learn more about Nelson and his philosophy about forming a bond with a car.
