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.

2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat

Wed, 29 Oct 2014

Including all-wheel-drive models, there are ten versions of the 2015 Dodge Charger. The tenth variant - better described as the ten-tenths variant and the topmost model - is this Charger SRT Hellcat.
Superficially, you already know what it is: take the massively powerful Hellcat engine that's Frankensteined into the Dodge Challenger and stitch it into the recently facelifted Charger sedan.
Oh, but that would be superficial knowledge indeed. Russ Ruedisueli, vehicle line executive and head engineer for SRT, claims the Charger Hellcat is, "The industry's most irreverent four-door supercar." We looked up the word "irreverent" in the Oxford dictionaries, and it turns out the word doesn't mean "707 horsepower," nor "650 pound-feet of torque" nor "3.7-second 0-60 time, and seats five adults." It does mean, "Showing a lack of respect for people or things that are generally taken seriously."

2013 Dodge Charger SRT8 Super Bee

Tue, 12 Mar 2013

I can pinpoint the exact moment when I fell in love with this car. It was starting down a nearly straight entrance ramp at 15 miles per hour when I buried the throttle. In a moment, I was thrown back into my seat as the big SRT8's engine came to life with commensurate sound, fury and force, bringing me up to 75 mph in what felt like two blinks of an eye. This thing feels so much quicker than its 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque would lead you to believe. And mashing the right pedal never, ever gets old.
But beyond sheer speed, I found a whole lot to like about the Charger SRT8 during my week with the Pitch Black test car here in Detroit. And while the whole Super Bee kit isn't really my style, it's really easy to overlook those badges for a package that offers so much for so little.
Driving Notes

Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat gets 22 mpg

Thu, 18 Sep 2014

With its crazy 707 horsepower on tap and roughly $60,000 starting price, the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat has been one of the most talked about cars of the summer, maybe even the year. However, there's always been one lingering question about the behemoth that Dodge has waited to answer until now - its fuel economy. The EPA ratings for the muscle car are finally out, and the numbers are actually pretty impressive for a vehicle with this much power.
A 2015 Challenger Hellcat with the eight-speed automatic is rated at 22 miles per gallon highway, 13 mpg city and 16 mpg combined. Opting for the six-speed manual drops those figures to 21 mpg highway, 13 mpg city and 16 mpg combined.
"As the fastest muscle car ever, the Challenger Hellcat can run 10-second ETs [elapsed times] at the track, and then get 22 miles per gallon on the drive home. With a starting price of $59,995, there's nothing else that even comes close," said Dodge and SRT President Tim Kuniskis in the company's release.
