1969 DODGE CHARGER R/T 440 MAGNUM. NUMBERS MATCHING CAR. ORIGINAL 440 MAGNUM ENGINE AND 727 TORQUEFLITE 3 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION CAR. ORIGINAL FACTORY GEARING STILL IN CAR. THE CAR IS NOT RUNNING AND WILL NEED TOWED OR TRAILERED.

I ORIGINALLY PURCHASED THIS CAR IN 1985 AT TIME OF MY GRADUATION FROM HIGH SCHOOL. HAS BEEN WITH ME EVER SINCE BUT I HAVE LET IT GO AND I GUESS I NEED TO MOVE ON AND LET SOMEONE ELSE THAT HAS THE TIME AND MONEY TO GIVE IT A FIRST CLASS RESTORATION LIKE I WISHED I COULD DO.
THE CAR WAS LAST LICENCED IN 1997. ABOUT SEVEN YEARS AGO ITS 40 YEAR OLD WIRING GAVE OUT WITH A MELTDOWN AT THE STARTER RELAY (MORE ON THAT LATER) AND HAS BEEN SITTING OUTSIDE AND INSIDE EVER SINCE. I TOLD MYSELF I WILL GET AROUND TO ITS REPLACEMENT...BUT HAVE DECIDED TO PASS THE CAR ALONG. SO STARTING OFF I WILL LIST THE GOOD ...BAD..THE UGLY.. WITH AS MUCH DETAIL AS I CAN.

IF YOU WOULD LIKE MORE PHOTOS OR INFO I HAVE MISSED PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME AT MY E-MAIL THRU HERE AT E-BAY OR MY E-MAIL ... WOLFSBANEII@YAHOO.COM. PLEASE INCLUDE YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS AS E-BAY SOMETIMES HAS A PROBLEM WITH ME TRYING TO SEND MORE PICS THRU A RESPONDING E-MAIL. ON A PURCHASING NOTE, MY LAST SALE I ACCEPTED PAY-PAL AS A PAYMENT SOURCE, I NO LONGER WILL ACCEPT PAY PAL DUE TO LOSING CLOSE TO 200.00 FOR THEIR PROCESSING FEE. SORRY FOR THE INCONVIENCE.

ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION DRIVE TRAIN:
AS STATED THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 440 MAGNUM ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION AND FACTORY GEARING. IT HAS BEEN SITTING A WHILE SO IT WILL NEED A GOOD REFRESHING OF THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION. I NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINE ,TRANSMISSION , OR DIFFERENTAL WHILE THE CAR WAS IN RUNNING ORDER. THE GEARING I BELIEVE ARE 3:23 RATIO AND IS A POSI /SURE GRIP UNIT. IT IS AN A/C CAR BUT WAS NEVER HOOKED UP SINCE THE DAY I HAD IT. THE A/C PUMP IS STILL ON THE CAR BUT THE LINES , DRIER, RECIEVER, EXPANSION VALVE, AND CONDENSOR ARE NOT WITH THE CAR. CAR HAS NOT SEEN HEADERS WITH THE FACTORY UP SWUNG MANIFOLDS STILL ON CAR. DUAL EXHAUST SYSTEM STILL PRETTY MUCH INTACT FROM WHAT I CAN SEE. CARB IS FACTORY ORIGINAL FOUR BARREL SET UP.
THE BAD NEWS AS THIS DEALS WITH THE ENGINE IS THE WIRING HARNESS. THE WIRING FINALLY GAVE OUT AS I WAS ATTEMPTING TO START IT ONE DAY. SMOKE ROLLED FROM UNDER THE HOOD AND THE WIRING AT THE STARTER RELAY BURT AND SEVERAL WIRES WERE MELTED ALONG THE WAY TO THE BULKHEAD CONNECTOR ON THE FIREWALL. I AM NOT SURE HOW FAR THE MELTDOWN GOT AS FAR AS INSIDE THE CAR. I DON'T RECALL ANY FIRES UNDER THE DASH SO IT COULD HAVE STOPPED THERE. BUT IF YOU ARE GOING TO RESTORE THIS... THERE ARE NEW AND MORE RELIABLE REPLACEMENT HARNESSES OUT THERE NOW.

TIRES AND BRAKES :
THE TIRES ARE BRAND NEW... 215/70R/15 MOUNTED ON 15 INCH STEEL RIMS. THE TIRES ALONE ARE WORTH 300.00. THE ORIGINAL RIMS ARE LONG GONE AS I BOUGHT IT WITH AFTERMARKET RIMS INSTALLED AND SOLD THOSE WITH A PREVIOUS CAR. JUST TO SHOW HOW CLOSE TO AN ORIGINAL DODGE CHARGER THIS IS... THE DRIVERS SIDE STILL HAS THE LEFT HANDED THREADED LUG NUTS.
THE BRAKES ARE ORIGINAL 11 INCH DRUMS ALL THE WAY AROUND. IT DOES HAVE POWER BRAKES BUT THE ORIGINAL OWNER SAID THE BOOSTER WASN'T ORIGINAL, BUT IT WORKED FOR ME SO I NEVER REPLACED.

SUSPENSION AND STEERING:
FACTORY FRONT AND REAR SWAY BARS.. LEAST I THINK THE REAR IS ORIGINAL..LOOKS LIKE IT. LEAF SPRINGS IN REAR... TORSION BARS IN FRONT. I NEVER REPLACED THE BALL JOINTS OR TIE ROD ENDS WHILE I HAD THE CAR. IT DROVE STRAIGHT AND DIDNT WANDER , NO NOTICEABLE STRANGE TIRE WEAR SO I RAN IT AS IS. THE SUSPENSION SET UP IS VERY VERY STIFF... THERE IS NO BOUNCE TO THIS CAR AT ALL... VERY TIGHT. POWER STEERING WITH A VERY QUICK AND ULTRA RESPONSIVE WHEEL. I COULD SPIN THE WHEEL WITH JUST MY FINGERTIPS WHEN POWERED UP.

UNDER BODY:
THIS IS A UNI-BODY CAR. THE FRAME RAILS ARE SOLID AS WELL AS AROUND THE TORSION BARS. I UNDERCOATED ALL THE AREAS I COULD REACH WHEN I FIXED IT UP THOSE MANY YEARS AGO. THE FLOOR PANS ARE IN DECENT SHAPE AS FAR AS I KNOW. BUT... THE DRIVERS SIDE I HAD TO PATCHWORK UP AND SHOULD PROBABLY BE REPLACED. THE REAR DRIVERS I DIDNT TOUCH.AT THE TIME I WAS FIXING THE CAR, SHEET METAL WASNT AS AVAILABLE AS IT IS TODAY SO IT WAS TOUGH GETTING METAL REPLACEMENTS. SAME GOES WITH THE TRUNK. THE TRUNK WAS REPLACED WITH A PAN OUT OF A 1968 CHARGER. THERE ARE A FEW SMALL RUST THRUS IN THE TRUNK BUT CAN BE PATCHED OR REPLACED ...UP TO YOU. THE PASSENGERS SIDE FLOOR PANS, FRONT AND REAR I DIDNT REPLACE OR PATCH UP..WERE STILL IN GOOD SHAPE WHEN I WAS GOING THRU THE CAR.

EXTERIOR:
I NEVER HAD ACCESS TO A SANDBLASTER WHEN SO IT DOES HAVE A FEW ISSUES. PAINT IS FACTORY COLOR...NOT FACTORY PAINT. AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICS...THERE ARE BUBBLES AND RUST IN AREAS ABOUT THE CAR. I HAVE MORE DETAILED PICTURES OF THE DAMAGED AREAS IF YOU WOULD LIKE A CLOSER VIEW.
THE DARK GREEN VINYL TOP HAS BUBBLED IN A LOT OF SPOTS SO UNDERLYING DAMAGE TO THE METAL IS EVIDENT. THESE CARS ARE KNOWN FOR RUST IN THE TUNNEL WINDOW CHANNEL. THIS WAS NO DIFFERENT WHEN I GOT THE CAR, I REPAIRED IT BUT TIME HAS BUBBLED THE REPAIRS.
THE GLASS IN THE CAR IS ALL ORIGINAL AND FACTORY TINT. ONLY DAMAGE IS A SMALL BULLS EYE IN THE FRONT WIND SHIELD THAT WAS REPAIRED MANY YEARS AGO. WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR THE OWNER TOLD ME IT LEAKED AND NEEDED REPAIRED BUT I NEVER NOTICED ANY DAMPNESS OR WET CARPETING AT THE TIME. THE CAR WAS NOT EQUIPPED WITH POWER WINDOWS.
FRONT GRILL IS CRACK FREE AND LAST KNOWN THE HEADLIGHT DOORS STILL WORKED. HEADLIGHT DOORS ARE UNDAMAGED AS WELL.
FRONT AND REAR BUMPERS WILL NEED RE CHROMED. THERES NO RUST OR DENTS, BUT AS TYPICAL WITH THE BODY SHAPE, THE HOOD DRIPS ON THE BUMPER AND AFTER A FEW YEARS THE CHROME IS WORN AWAY IN TWO SPOTS. A COMMON PROBLEM ON THESE BODY CARS.
THE CAR IS A STRIPE DELETE CAR WITH JUST THE R/T EMBLEMS ON ITS QUARTER PANELS AND HEADLIGHT DOOR.

INTERIOR:
CLASSIC CHRYSLER DARK GREEN INTERIOR. BUCKET SEATS. VINYL WITH BENCH REAR. REAR SEATS ARE LIKE NEW, PASSENGERS SEAT ALSO LIKE NEW. THE DRIVERS SEAT HAS A FEW RIPS IN THE UPRIGHT BUCKET. THE DASH IS LIKE NEW WITH NO CRACKS OR SPLITS. STEERING WHEEL IS CRACKED IN THE RIM BUT NOT MISSING PIECES. STANDARD DASH SETUP WITH BLACK TRIM AND ROCKER SWITCHES. TO MY KNOWLEDGE ALL THE GAUGES EXCEPT THE CLOCK WERE IN WORKING ORDER. FACTORY RADIO WAS REPLACED WITH A CASSETTE UNIT... YES WAS STATE OF THE ART AT THE TIME. CARPET WILL NEED REPLACED. THE HEADLINER HAS A FEW SMALL HOLES IN IT BUT OTHER WISE IN GREAT SHAPE.

TO SUM IT UP. THIS CAR IS IN NEED OF A GOOD RESTORATION. IT HAS GREAT POTENTIAL IN THE RIGHT HANDS AND WILL MAKE ONE HELL OF A HEAD TURNER WHEN FINISHED. THE BEST THING GOING FOR THIS IS IT IS A NUMBERS MATCHING, ORIGINAL R/T CAR THERES NOT MANY LEFT... AND THEY DONT MAKE THEM ANYMORE. (UNLESS YOU COUNT THE FOUR DOORS..BUT ANYWAY...) I HAVE INCLUDED THE FENDER TAG OPTION AS I HAVE GOTTEN A LOT OF REQUEST FOR ITS NUMBERS AND OPTION. THE PLATE ISNT IN THE BEST OF SHAPE SO I WILL DO MY BEST TO GET THE CODES RIGHT AS FOLLOWS:

VIF V88 26 END
G33 H51 J23? W21 M31 R11
A01 A04 B51 C16 C55 G11
F3 C89? F8 212 246527
386 D32 XS29 L9B 291879

PAYMENT CAN BE MADE BY CASH, CHECK OR MONEY ORDER (CAR DOESNT LEAVE THE PROPERTY UNTIL CHECK OR MONEY ORDER CLEARS..USUALLY 10 DAYS) BANK WIRE TRANSFER. I DO NOT ACCEPT PAY PAL ANYMORE DUE TO ISSUE STATED ABOVE. I AM NOT INTERESTED IN TRADES SO PLEASE DONT OFFER. WHAT I AM ASKING FOR IS WHAT THE STARTING BID IS, PLEASE DONT ASK ME "HOW MUCH WILL I TAKE FOR IT"...ITS ALREADY LISTED. ALL SALES ARE FINAL. I HAVE DISCLOSED ALL THE ISSUES I KNOW OF AND HAVE MORE PICTURES OF THE CAR AVAILABLE TO YOU. IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION PLEASE CONTACT ME. PICK UP OF THE CAR IS THE BUYERS RESPONSABILITY .

THANK YOU AND HAPPY BIDDING, BEST OF LUCK.

Dodge could enter Peugeot's Le Mans-bound 9x8 hypercar in IMSA races

Wed, Jul 21 2021

Fiat-Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) and PSA Group merged under the Stellantis umbrella in early 2021 to achieve economies of scale, and this benefit could surprisingly extend to racing. Executives are debating whether to give Dodge its own version of Peugeot's recently-unveiled 9x8 hypercar to race in America, according to a recent report. "While we only heard [the new rules] confirmed a week ago, it has certainly led to some very open discussion, not only about whether Peugeot might add races in the United States, but also about whether the spine of this car might have opportunities with other brands in the Stellantis Group. There are no conclusions yet, but there are now open discussions," affirmed Jean-Marc Finot, the Senior Vice President of Stellantis, in an interview with Racer. His comments refer to an agreement signed in July 2021 by the Automobile Club de l'Ouest (ACO), the Federation Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), and the International Motor Sports Association (IMSA). They chose to align their technical regulations to let manufacturers compete in different events on both sides of the pond without going through the resource-consuming process of developing a specific car for each series. As of writing, the Le Mans Hypercar (LMH) and Le Mans Daytona h (LMDh) categories fall under the newly-announced common set of rules. On the surface, this means Peugeot could enter its 9X8 (pictured) in the WeatherTech SportsCar Championship as soon as the 2023 season. While this is seemingly under consideration, Peugeot has little to gain from winning a major race in the United States. It hasn't sold cars here since 1991, and its long-mooted comeback was canned after PSA merged with FCA. Giving a variant of the 9X8 to Dodge is a more credible possibility, according to Racer. If not Dodge, then who else? Chrysler hasn't been linked to racing or performance for decades. Jeep is no stranger to performance vehicles, but IMSA would be pushing it. Ram is Ram, while Fiat, Alfa Romeo, and Maserati are rooted in Europe. The rest of the Stellantis brands (like Opel, Lancia, and Citroen) are not distributed in America. Nothing is official, and the publication stressed it's unclear whether Dodge will commit part- or full-time to the series (assuming the program receives the green light). Finot underlined the parallel car would use the 9X8's "spine," so don't expect to see a Peugeot hypercar with a Dodge emblem driving flat-out on the Sebring International Raceway.

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.

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."
