For auction on ebay is my original California 1970 Dodge Charger.  Please check out all the photos below.  The car is now FM3, Panther Pink, and looks awesome.  If you are looking to be different this is the car for you.  It is very striking and the color combo looks great.  Has all new R/T badging and original R/T door scoops with the rare optional white R/T longitudinal pinstriping.  Please read everything below to see everything done to this car and help answer many of the questions you may have.This car is rust free and as solid of a 70 Charger as you will ever find.  The car retains all of its original body panels except for the center trunk floor which had some pitting and pin holes so it was replaced.  I will break down each area to describe all the work done.  Car runs and drives great and just needs a new owner. Has build sheet and its original fender tag. This is a fully loaded 1970 Charger!

 

Body- Car has new paint job that was done about a year ago.  Car has all original exterior body panels (only center trunk pan replaced).  Quarters, top, sail panels, floor boards, frame, rockers , etc, etc is all original and in excellent shape.   The car is very straight and looks great.  It is not an original FM3 pink car- however a complete color change was done.  All trim, bumpers, door handles, grille , taillights, etc were removed prior to paint.  Engine bay and trunk also painted without engine installed, so it was done right.   Grille and taillights along with tail panel in very nice condition. Grille has no cracks or breaks.  Original front bumper, rear has been replaced with a new bumper.  All stainless is original and in excellent shape. This car was stored for a very long time inside and all trim was near perfect. Has original very nice wheel lip mouldings, rocker moulding, drip rails, top of door stainless and also vinyl top trim. Marker lights are excellent with no pitting and nice chrome. Nice white vinyl top.  New hood pins as well. Headlights open and close like they should.

Interior-  All new interior including new carpet, seat covers, dash cap, door panels, trunk mat, headliner.  Original dash in nice shape.  Being an SE car it has woodgrain interior, including Woodgrain steering wheel, dash, and door panels.  The driver side seat has the rare and very cool, 70 only, Six way seat. The steering wheel no longer has a crack, it was changed out with another woodgrain wheel with no cracks.

Engine-  Has a rebuilt 383 magnum engine.  All new exterior accessories for reliability purposes.  The engine has less than 1000 miles on it and runs great.  New distributor, carb, starter, etc.  Motor is a stock rebuild with mild cam.  Has HP manifolds into new 2 1/2 full exhaust with tips out back. Motor is ready to drive and everything under the hood has been replaced.  Since everything was replaced the car has been driven about 40 miles. 

Transmission- Fully rebuilt 727 automatic transmission with new torque converter.  Shifts as it should with correct kickdown linkage.

Driveshaft- new ujoints on both ends and speed balanced.

Exhaust- Brand new 2 1/2 exhaust with stock turbo mufflers and tips out the back.  Will post pics of exhaust during auction.

Wheels/Tires-  Brand new 17x8 and 17x9.5 chrome "old school" wheels. Tires are brand new 245/45/17 up front and 255/50/17 rear. If buyer does not want the 17's, i do have a set of original rallye wheels with regular radial tires i could put on instead. Buyer's choice.  

Electrical- Lights, turn signals, hazards , dome light, headlights , etc all work as they should.  Has new engine harness.  Has new wiper motor as well.  Light bulbs were replaced.

Misc.- All R/T badging is new.  Wiper washer bottle/pump and hoses are new.  Stock 26" radiator.  Glass all in good condition and windows roll up and down great.  Has new weatherstripping in trunk, doors and roof rail.

Suspension-  Suspension was replaced about 2 years ago and is still new with very little mileage (approx. 400 miles)

Rear end- Stock 8 3/4 rear end with 3.55 suregrip (posi for people not familiar with mopar)

 

Overall as you can see a lot has been done to the car to get into the condition you see below.  The car has a ton of new parts and is fully loaded with everything a Charger in 1970 could just about have.  Six way seat, woodgrain wheel, disc brakes, suregrip rear, hood pins, etc.  All the stuff people add to their cars this one already has!  The car was an A/C car from the factory. The only thing not hooked up currently is the radio.  Speakers are in the back, they just need wires from radio to speakers and you will have a radio if that is important to you.   Look around and try to find a 70 Charger in panther pink for sale, they are not out there.  Rare opportunity to own an affordable 70 charger with all the hard work done.  Get in and enjoy!

2014 Dodge Durango teaser reveals new 'racetrack' taillights

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

Not wanting to let Jeep get all of the SUV attention for the 2014 model year, Dodge is unveiling a refreshed version of its Durango at the New York Auto Show. Teased in this image, all we can really tell about the 2014 Dodge Durango is that it will be getting Dodge's "racetrack" taillights similar to the Charger and Dart.
The chrome or painted strip currently between the Durango's Zorro taillamps have been removed to allow for a full-width LED array with "DODGE" lettering displayed more prominently above the license plate pocket. Parent company Chrysler also promises that the updated Durango will add "several new class-exclusive features," but stops short of saying what those are. Earlier reports suggest that among the changes, buyers will be able to look forward to an eight-speed automatic gearbox, which ought to improve the three-row SUV's fuel efficiency.

Motorweek goes retro with '80s hot hatch shootout

Mon, 03 Nov 2014

Motorweek's decades of history on television make it the perfect medium to look back into the automotive past and see how things are different now. It recently added old road test videos to its YouTube channel of the Acura NSX and Toyota Supra, as well as the Ferrari F40. For one of its newest flashback clips, Motorweek has exhumed an affordable five-car challenge of 1986's premiere hot hatches.
By today's standards, this is an eclectic field that features fondly remembered classics like the Volkswagen GTI 16-valve and Acura Integra. However, it also throws in some nearly forgotten contenders like the Dodge Colt Turbo and Ford Escort GT. The angular Toyota Corolla FX16 GT-S rounds out the group.
It's fascinating to watch Motorweek run the quintet through the slalom, down the drag strip and on various roads. What's most striking in this clip is the difference in the definition of a performance car between then and now. With its 16-valve, 1.8-liter four-cylinder, the GTI is the burliest of the contenders with 123 horsepower, but it still takes 8.8 seconds to reach 60 miles per hour. By today's standards, that would make it a plain-jane economy car, and not even a particularly quick one.

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.
