Vehicle came out of Auburn Indiana. Purchased at the Auction America auction at Auburn Auction Park. Previous owner did a body-on restoration on the vehicle sometime in the early 2000s and has kept meticulous records of almost every single part purchased for the Challenger (I have a folder two inches thick full of receipts/documents/service history, etc.).  It has been mechanically completely rebuilt so it runs/drives good and can be driven anywhere. 

Vehicle has a VERY SOLID BODY. Doors open and close perfectly. Body is very straight down the sides with very few if any ripples. Seems to have all original body panels except for one lower quarter patch by rear driver's side quarter panel, with new sheetmetal, otherwise the rest seems to be all original. This is a VERY NICE car and has had a quality paintjob done to it a few years ago that has held up very well and looks fantastic.

Under the hood lies a COMPLETELY REBUILT and PROFESSIONALLY ASSEMBLED and built 440ci/375hp MAGNUM motor that has been upgraded with a ton of name brand parts and go-fast goodies. Everything looks virtually brand new under the hood and is definitely a sight to behold. Most if not all receipts for parts purchased are available as well. Upgrades include aluminum intake, Holley 4bbl. double-pumper carburetor, MSD billet distributor, MSD style control box, performance plugs/wires/coil, Flowmaster dual exhaust, and tons of accent goodies as well. 

Mechanically it fires right up and sounds great. Transmission is solid and shifts good through all the gears. Brakes have been completely overhauled and stop on a dime! Car feels great, handles the road nicely, sounds great and is very responsive with a little play in the steering wheel. I would not hesitate to fly in and drive the car home anywhere in the country, as it is that reliable. 

Interior is virtually all stock with custom red/black inserts in the seats (I CAN HAVE THEM REDONE TO STOCK FOR EXTRA FEE IF DESIRED). NO rips in the seats. Excellent headliner. Carpet is very nice. Door panels very nice. Dash is good with a couple of surface cracks. Good steering wheel. Very good console. Overall a beautifully presentable interior for a high-end driver.

Chrome is fairly nice overall. Front bumper guards were removed on the car to give it a cleaner look.

Underside actually appears to be in PRETTY SOLID shape throughout. Floorboards appear very nice and solid with NO holes or large rot areas anywhere I was able to find. A couple of areas have undercoating that is peeling, other than that they are very nice.  Frame and frame rails appear EXCELLENT. VERY SOLID trunk as well, with full size spare as well as an extra rally rim, and jack. 

The old girl is NOT perfect by any means of course so please keep that in mind when bidding. Paint is overall VERY GOOD to EXCELLENT shape with BEAUTIFUL shine but is not brand new and has a few minor imperfections from driving. Some minor chips here and there. Not working: clock, gauges seem to be working fine otherwise, perhaps may need a bulb or two replaced where needed. Missing: fender tag, dome light plastic lens, a/c parts (removed but available). Trunk could use some detailing. Front bumper is presentable but could be replaced if you really wanted it to pop. Not much else I can fault on this car other than really neat picky stuff.

I am sure there are several other things I am forgetting at the moment, so overall she is not perfect and to do it justice should be gently restored to your liking, or you can just drive it as is. Please note, I cannot remember every single issue with the car, nor do I know everything wrong with it, as it is after all over 40 years old so keep that in mind.

If you just want a BEAUTIFUL LOOKING AND SUPER FUN DRIVER that runs/drives FANTASTIC, then this is the car for you. If you want a concourse correct show car, it will need a considerable amount of work to bring it up to that level of course. I ENCOURAGE ANYONE BIDDING OR SERIOUSLY INTERESTED TO COME LOOK AT IT IN PERSON. I WILL BE GLAD TO SHOW IT TO YOU TOP TO BOTTOM SO YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE GETTING INTO.

2022 Chrysler 300 and Dodge Challenger, Charger recalled for faulty TPMS sensors

Mon, Jul 25 2022

Stellantis is recalling some of its longest-running models to address a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) sensor defect that may be erroneously indicating a low-pressure condition — 52,340 cars shipped with sensors built with batteries that may fail prematurely, triggering a TPMS light when there is no actual safety threat.  A TPMS light that remains constantly illuminated is not only annoying but it could also mask a real tire pressure loss, which is a safety hazard. Stellantis says the production range for potentially impacted models runs from September 7, 2021 to June 9, 2022, indicating it took some time for issues to crop up in the wild, so just because no issue has crept up yet, doesn't mean it won't later on.  Notices have begun circulating to dealers and should be sent to owners by early September. In the meantime, owners should verify any tire pressure warnings independently before driving their vehicles.  Related video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Junkyard Gem: 1964 Dodge Dart station wagon

Fri, Nov 30 2018

The Chrysler A Platform, built from the 1960 through 1976 model years for the North American market (and for a few years beyond that in Australia and Latin America), was one of Chrysler's greatest hits, if not the greatest hit. We know these cars best as the 1963-1976 Dodge Dart and the 1960-1976 Plymouth Valiant, and they established a reputation for reliability matched only by the likes of the Mercedes-Benz W123 diesel. I still see many of these cars during my junkyard wanderings, but A-Body wagons have become very rare. Here's a tattered '64 Dart wagon that I spotted in a self-service wrecking yard in San Jose, California. 1964 was the first model year for factory-installed V8 engines in the Dart and Valiant (and the Valiant's sporty sibling, the Barracuda), and the 273-cubic-inch pushrod V8 was a sturdy powerplant indeed. The slant-6 engine, though less powerful, went into most of these cars, and for good reason: It was harder to kill than all the world's cockroaches and rats put together. This car would have come with a 170- or 225-cubic-inch version of the slant-6, optimistically rated at either 101 or 145 gross horsepower (probably about 55 horses at the wheels), but I didn't feel like scraping sludge off casting numbers to see if it's on its first or 11th engine. In any case, slant-6 Darts were on the pokey side but would get you to your destination every time. This one has a lot of rust for a California car (in New Hampshire or Wisconsin, it would be considered pretty solid) and the interior is more or less obliterated, so even dedicated station-wagon lovers wouldn't have been motivated to take it on as a restoration project. So another early Dart is poised to be stuffed into The Crusher, for reasons that make good economic sense. This still makes us sad, though. This content is hosted by a third party.
