1970 Dodge Charger, General Lee Clone on 2040-cars

Year:1970 Mileage:1
Location:

College Station, Texas, United States

College Station, Texas, United States

1970 Dodge Charger, 383 car, cloned to the General Lee (but with a 70 grill).  Overall a very good driver, drum brakes, brand new tires, glass pack exhaust exhaust gives a strong sound to the car, dixie horn works great and is loud.

Mechanical:  Transmission seals take a little bit of time to engage when you first start the car and put it into reverse.  After it "pumps up" there is no problem, just you will experience a delay on start up.  I took it to a local shop that's been around a while, they told me it's a typical problem with the seals.  Again, after about 10-20 seconds and thereafter there is no problem, just at start-up only.  Shifter looks very nice, but is a little sloppy, probably could use adjustment.  The exhaust has the short "glass pack" type mufflers on it, so it ends about 3ft after the headers.  Sounds really good, not too loud but does rumble.  A/C does not work, Radio doesn't work, I think turn signals etc work, headlights do not currently work - wiring is there so should be something easy.  Headlight door motor is in the trunk, so you manually have to lift the headlight doors.  All pretty easy stuff to fix.  Car drives great, get in and go, no bad vibrations or anything like that, solid driver car.

Paint:  Has a good shine to it, but has many  scratches here and there.  5 footer car.

Interior:  The front seats are from a '73 Charger SE, I do not have the original 70 buckets.  Everything else appears to be original in the interior.

Rust:  Car has rust in the frame in the front where the "tow hooks" would go, and in the outer torque boxes.  The patch panels for the torque boxes are $149 each, front frame just needs some metal cut to fit and weld  in.  I do not see a major issue, just typical Charger stuff.  Rear frame rails look good, I do not see any repair necessary.  Floor pans in front need replacement, someone placed the replacement pans under the carpet and I've been driving it this way in the dry Texas weather.  But to be right, it would need to be attended to.

This car gets ridiculous attention, so be prepared.  Car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.

I  am an honest Ebayer and expect the same from potential buyers.  My feedback is 100% and I expect to keep it that way.  International buyers are welcome, check my feedback for other vehicles I have sold worldwide.  All funds must post to my account before the car leaves my possession.

Thanks for looking and happy bidding.  Be sure to check my other auctions for a few other cars I am selling to fund my new projects (1969  Dodge Charger, 1968 Chevelle, 1969 Firebird)

Challenger A/T Unlimited Concept could be your next Hellcat-powered ORV

Fri, 29 Aug 2014

This past June I spent an excellent day hanging out with Joey Ruiter, driving and discussing his Reboot Buggy project. Before heading home, I let him know that he was more than welcome to keep me abreast of whichever new automotive project he'd get into. You can never have too many car designers and one-off fabricators in your Rolodex, right?
Ruiter recently made good with the follow-up, emailing me with details on this Dodge Challenger A/T Untamed Concept that pushes a lot of hot buttons for the muscle car and off-roading enthusiasts.
This all-terrain Mopar is a lot more than a Challenger body dropped on a truck chassis, too. A materialized version of the A/T would included a completely new, long-travel suspension, skid plates, body armor and rock sliders, and obviously flared fenders to help accommodate a hellacious set of off-road-ready tires. The dramatically revised underpinnings would be topped with a slick graphics package and a killer lower light bar, all making the A/T look quite cohesive in its own, radical way. And the result would be a car no longer limited to mere road-driving.

Roadkill builds crazy-cheap 1968 Dodge Charger rat rod using an old motorhome

Tue, 24 Dec 2013

Certain requests for description simply cannot be fulfilled, like if someone asked you to describe Picasso's Guernica or Gilliam's Brazil. There is only one appropriate answer to such entreaties, and that is: "You just gotta see it." That's where we are with the latest episode of Roadkill, wherein Messr's Freiburger and Finnegan dig out a 1968 Dodge Charger that Freiburger acquired in exchange for a set of cylinder heads, and intend to stuff it with the big-block motor from a long-bed, three-quarter ton Dodge pickup.
Only the pickup is too nice to tear apart, and the Charger needs a whole lot more lovin' - and parts - than initially expected. Enter, stage right, the Class A Dodge Pace Arrow motorhome with a 440 big-block purchased for $1,000, and a retired Plymouth Fury from a previous episode.
What ensues over the course of the 40-minute installment is more cuttin', yankin', leakin', stallin', hammerin' and smokin' action than you've seen in a long time, and some techniques that would have made even Cooter wonder, "I'm not sure if we should do that." By the end, though, the payoff is good enough to make you think about perusing AutoTrader for a '68 Charger just to see if maybe...

Dodge to sell off first Challenger SRT Hellcat for charity

Sun, 27 Jul 2014


Want to get your hands on a new 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, and can't wait to be the first to get one? Las Vegas will be the place to be on September 27. That's where Barrett-Jackson will auction off the very first example. And you'd better bring your checkbook, because the bidding is sure to be fierce with all the proceeds going to charity.
The supercharged Challenger with VIN 0001 has been hand-painted in Stryker Red (usually reserved for the Viper) and features special badging, documentation and accompanying memorabilia - not to mention, of course, that 707-horsepower, 6.2-liter supercharged Hemi V8. The car will be on display this weekend as well at Barrett-Jackson's Hot August Nights auction in Reno.
