1969 Dodge Charger Daytona clone. 440, 727 automatic with power steering, 4 wheel power disc brakes and sure grip 8
3/4 rear end. Every effort has been made to make this car a mirror image replica of the ultra rare 1969 Dodge
Charger Daytona. You would have to be a virtual Daytona expert to verify you are not looking at the real deal. The
restoration took years of research and collecting difficult to find parts as well as a huge time commitment of
labor to get the details just right. This Daytona was restored to appear very close to the way it would have left
the factory with the exception of a few subtle mechanical modifications to improve reliability, drivability and
performance over an original. This car has an all new front to back modern DOT 5 four wheel power disc brake
system including all the pads, rotors, calipers, brackets, shields, hoses, lines, master cylinder, booster as well
as the parking brake cables front and rear wheel bearings and seals. Correct 1969 Daytona engine K frame and
rebuilt front suspension with factory sway bar and new shocks. The rear end is a bulletproof 8 3/4 sure-grip 3:23
posi track with R/T leafs, new air adjustable shocks, new pinion seal as well as the correct green wheel bearings
pressed on the axels for the rear disc conversion. The car has a 26" radiator support, a new Direct fit three row
Aluminum radiator with stamped tanks and thermo switch controlled dual electric fans mounted in an an aluminum
shroud. Mild pro built 440 engine and 727 TorqueFlite Automatic transmission. Correct original 1969 440 Magnum Air
cleaner, exhaust manifolds, valve covers, water pump housing, accessory brackets and pulleys. All belts, hoses and
clamps, spark plugs, cap, rotor, wires, power steering hoses and lines, alternator, starter, water pump, complete
engine wire harness and transmission cooler lines are new as well. New fuel system front to back including the
carburetor with electronic choke, filter, pump, all lines, hoses, clamps, sending unit, fuel tank straps, tank mat,
filler tube seal and polished stainless steel fuel tank. The exhaust system is a new reproduction with all the
correct dimples and bends to mimic the factory system and correct rectangular polished stainless steel R/T exhaust
tips. It sounds perfect, not loud but you can hear the cam. The beautiful 1969 interior has been restored with the
correct materials by Legendary Auto Interiors of New York. The rock solid body is an original Charger 500 from
Texas and still retains its original numbers matching fender tag, dash tag, trunk lip and core support numbers with
metal so solid clean you can read the factory number stampings on the bottoms of the frame rails. All gaps, lines
and fitment are perfect and measurements were taken under close inspection of original untouched Daytona's. The
body is laser straight and the paint is show quality Spies Hecker clear coat. Lots of effort went into refinishing
the rock solid undercarriage in the correct colors and finishes with high end materials, the bottom is just as nice
as the top.

1970 Hemi Challenger is a family heirloom with serious muscle

Wed, Dec 30 2015

Petrolicious turns up the emotion in its latest video about a family's connection to their 1970 Dodge Challenger. The orange muscle car that gets the spotlight here is a remarkably beautiful vehicle, but the story of a father and his sons at the core of this clip might leave you feeling a little misty eyed. Juan Escalante is the current owner of this Challenger, but it belonged to his dad first. Juan's father spotted the iconic muscle car during the 1969 Detroit Auto Show and had to have one. He soon placed an order for the orange '70 Challenger R/T with the rare combination for that year of a 426 Hemi V8 and a four-speed manual gearbox. The family even brought the coupe with them when they moved to Venezuela in 1972, and local fans dubbed it El Hemi. However, parts were scarce for the muscle car in that country, and it returned to the US in 1996 for a restoration. Now, the rumbling Challenger with its Coke-bottle profile and black hood is the world's most awesome family heirloom for the Escalantes. In this poignant video, Petrolicious shows how the coupe connects Juan to his father. Related Video:

Chrysler extending production of current Dodge Avenger, Jeep Wrangler, Grand Caravan

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Are you hesitant to pull the trigger on a brand new Dodge Avenger in hopes that a new one will be coming? Well, don't hold your breath. According to The Detroit News, Chrysler will be extending production of the current Avenger sedan through the end of 2015.
Originally, we heard that the company would kill the Avenger to better focus its midsize sedan efforts on the Chrysler 200 replacement. But then new reports stated there would indeed be an Avenger successor, and that we could see it as early as next January. This Detroit News report cites supplier sources confirming the extension of Avenger production, though Chrysler has not released an official statement on the matter.
These same suppliers say that the current Jeep Wrangler will live on through mid-2018 - that's right, another five years. The Detroit News reports that a replacement for the iconic, go-anywhere Jeep was due in mid-2016.

Ward's announces 10 Best Engines 2015

Wed, Dec 10 2014

Ward's Auto has named its 10 Best Engines for 2015, covering a range of powerplants from fuel-sippers to fire-breathers. As with past years, forced-induction reigns supreme, with seven of the ten engines featuring a turbo or supercharger. This year is slightly different, though, as two of the seven blown engines are turbocharged three-cylinder mills, from the Ford Fiesta and Mini Cooper. They're joined by the 2.0-liter turbo four from the Volvo S60, the 1.8-liter turbo four from the Volkswagen Jetta and the 2.0-liter boxer from the Subaru WRX. BMW and Chrysler were the only marques to be named to this year's list twice, with the electric motor from the i3 joining the Mini's three-pot, and the 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6 in the Ram 1500 and Jeep Grand Cherokee repping the diesel crowd, alongside a certain supercharged monster. Hyundai also took a prize with a zero-emissions powertrain, with the Tucson FCV's 100-kilowatt fuel cell making the list (apparently Ward's is quite generous with what it deems an "engine"). Rounding out the list are two Autoblog favorites, each displacing 6.2 liters, but producing their power very differently. On the one hand, Chevrolet's overhead-valve, 455-horsepower V8, found in the Corvette, makes its power the old fashioned way. And in the other corner, we have one of the most exciting engines of the year – the 707-hp, 6.2-liter, supercharged Hellcat V8, featured so prominently in the Dodge Challenger and Charger SRT Hellcat. "We spend a lot of time reading the powertrain tea leaves throughout the auto industry, and we're proud that this year's list is a microcosm of all the latest innovation coming from automakers," said Ward's Editor-in-Chief Drew Winter in a statement. "It's not just a list for enthusiasts or for environmentalists," he says. "There's something for every vehicle shopper and every budget. All the powertrains on this list deliver a first-rate driving experience," Winter added. Scroll down for the full list from Ward's, and let us know which engines you think belong and which should have been included in this year's rankings. Ward's 10 Best Engines of 2015 Announced by Penton's WardsAuto Honorees span most diverse and technically advanced engines in 21 years of recognized powertrain excellence SOUTHFIELD, Mich., Dec. 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Penton's Wards 10 Best Engines of 2015 have been announced.
