Up for sale is my 1972 Dodge Challenger. Rebuilt motor/tranny 5k miles ago. New wheels/tires about the same time. Balanced 340  with X heads and factory high performance manifolds. The motor was gone through, bored 30 over, crank was reground, new KB 10.5:1 pistons, all new bearing/rings etc.  The X heads were redone at the same time with new springs, seals, exhaust valves and a fresh grind. New driveshaft. Mechanically its done but the paint needs work if you want to show it. Its an older repaint that I wouldn't call half assed but more like 3/4 assed. Sand marks left here and there and spots that are wavy. I posted pics of the spots that I could get it to show up. Its a good driver car as is, most people don't even notice and I can drive it without have to park it sideways in 3 spaces a mile from the store. The floor pans and trunk are all perfectly solid but if you know Challengers then you know what I mean when I say the passenger side inner fender needs replaced at the hood hinge. The hood still opens and closes fine but if you look in the pics you can see where its rusted at the hinge. Its an ac car and I have all the ac to put back on it I just couldn't decide if I wanted to update the compressor or not. The original one is massive and weighs probably 40 lbs......however if you like Mopars and are wanting that look then theres no mistaking it for anything else. I'll leave it for you to decide.  It runs and drives great and sounds even better. I can honestly say I've never owned a car that got more attention. You cant stop for gas without someone chatting you up about it. I'm certain I'm forgetting things so if you would like any more info or pics just send me a message or contact me at 618-521-ten38.  Just added a few more pics in better light.

Watch 1,414-hp worth of Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat do stereo burnouts

Tue, 08 Jul 2014

When Dodge announced that the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat would produce 707 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque from its supercharged 6.2-liter V8, automotive enthusiasts were shocked. The company had promised us that it would be powerful, but no one expected for the muscle car to post even larger numbers than the range-topping Viper.
Car and Driver recently got ahold of two new SRTs and decided that the only proper way to show them off was by lighting up the rears in stereo. With a combined 1,414 horsepower, the pair of them make burnouts from the Hellcat V8 look as easy as breathing. The tires start spinning at the slightest provocation and just don't stop. If you buy one of these, it looks like you and the employees at the local tire store are going to be on a first name basis.
Scroll down to watch these two Hellcats to lay down enough smoke to alert the local hook and ladder trucks.

FCA fibbed on sales according to internal report

Mon, Jul 25 2016

Following last week's news that Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) is under investigation by the Department of Justice and Securities and Exchange Commission for allegedly fudging sales figures, a new report in Automotive News says an internal investigation at FCA uncovered misreported sales. According to the AN story, 5,000 to 6,000 vehicles from various FCA brands were reported sold by dealers, but no customers existed for those cars. FCA sales chief Reid Bigland has already put a stop to the practice. One potential reason for the practice was to maintain the company's month-to-month sales increase streak, currently at 75 months. In April, FCA added a lengthy disclaimer to its sales announcements: "FCA US reported vehicle sales represent sales of its vehicles to retail and fleet customers, as well as limited deliveries of vehicles to its officers, directors, employees and retirees. Sales from dealers to customers are reported to FCA US by dealers as sales are made on an ongoing basis through a new vehicle delivery reporting system that then compiles the reported data as of the end of each month. "Sales through dealers do not necessarily correspond to reported revenues, which are based on the sale and delivery of vehicles to the dealers. In certain limited circumstances where sales are made directly by FCA US, such sales are reported through its management reporting system." FCA did not provide comment to Automotive News.

Dodge bringing revamped Challenger, Charger to Big Apple

Mon, 07 Apr 2014

The 2014 New York Auto Show will be a big one for Dodge, as the brand has announced that refreshed versions of the 2015 Challenger and 2015 Charger will debut at the show. This is a particularly big deal for the two-door Challenger which, visually, has remained unchanged since is burst back onto the scene in 2008 and helped reignite the muscle car wars.
As a sort of hint, this announcement was accompanied by the picture you see above - the Super Bee logo in the Challenger's new instrument cluster. According to Dodge, the New York debut of a new "powertrain combination" - possibly with the high-output Hellcat V8 - will leave enthusiasts "abuzz."
As for the Charger, Dodge is promising a full redesign that should be a significant departure from the blunt, angry looks of the current model. At this point, there's no indication that the Challenger's new powertrain could be fitted to the Charger, although considering how mechanically similar these two vehicles have been, it doesn't seem outside the realm of possibility.
