1970 Dodge Charger R/T Clone with a dual 4 barrels
Clear Texas Tittle Originally a 318 auto the car is now a 440 auto car with 2 four barrel carbs. This is a car we built several years ago and drove every day. Since my son went to work in Dallas it has set in my garage collecting dust. He wants to go to Law school so something has to give. This is a great opportunity to own a car that has not been rusted out or mis treated. This car was completely rebuilt in 2007 for daily driving. This is a great car. Most of the original sheet metal is there. Only the quarters and maybe the rear valance has been replaced. All original floor pans and trunk pan that have been under coated inside and out. It isn't perfect but the frame rails, floor pans and sheet metal all look good. All lights were working when it was parked, believe they still are. Head light doors open and close good. New rubber strip under the hood. New trunk weather strip, new door and body seal rubber replaced. Good windshield and glass with all new rubber. Some of the side glass has the usual scratches. The wheels are nice chrome, not aluminum, chrome with good tread on the tires. The drive train was completely gone through. Rebuilt 440 motor from a 70 dodge truck with new 10.5:1 pistons, bearings, purple shaft cam and Edelbrock dual 4 barrel carbs. Professionally rebuilt bored 30 over no expense spared. The transmission is a 727 rebuilt at a local shop with a good reputation. The rear end is a 489 with an eaton 3:55 posi. All new bearings brakes, etc. The exhaust is flow master 3" with 40's mufflers and competition headers. The suspension was completely rebuilt with energy suspension bushings. New ball joints, tie rod ends, idler arm, pitman arm, stabilizer bushings, shocks and bearings. The steering was getting a little sloppy so we bought a new power steering gear box that is still setting in the trunk ready to install. The brakes are front disc from a 74 charger with good pads and rebuilt calipers, and new hoses.The rear brakes came from a 70 station wagon with the wider shoes. New engine and transmission mounts. 4 core radiator recored in 2007. Power brake booster from a 70 R/T, chrome alternator, new power steering pump. The interior has some minor tears in the drivers seat. We bought two new seat covers from year one and they are still in the box in the front seat. The rear seat still looks good. The carpets, dash pad, door panels, package tray, seal plates, arm rests, window cranks head liner etc. were replace in 2007. It has a TIC-TOC-TACH, and fLoor shift console. When I got in it and started it the fuel gage didn't work correctly. It came up some but not all the way when I filled it up. Don't know why, the sending unit was new in 2007, all other gauges work. Some of the dash lights are out but you can read the gauges. The stereo is awesome with a CD player and sub woofer in the trunk, and an electric antennae. All of the wiring was replaced with year one wiring harnesses. The paint was awesome but now has a few minor blemishes as would be expected now that its 6 years old. It really cleans up nice but has a couple of minor chips, and a small place on the hood where the clear is peeled. They are small and not visible if your moving, but if you want to take it to the show you will need to have them spiffed up. A friend in the business did the chrome on the bumpers for me and the chrome is deep and shiny. The remote mirror is original and needs chromed to look as nice as the bumpers. The stainless is good with a few minor digs that can be straightened. A lot of money was spent on this car. It was so much fun to drive but has been off the road since 2010 as you can see in the photos of the tag and sticker. I had to use a shot of ether to make it start after setting for months since it was last started. The carbs were sticky and it took a while for it to warm up. The brakes were a little squishy, not sure whats up there. May need bled or may just need driven. It wouldn't take much at all to have it road worthy. Keep in mind we drove the car into the garage and it has been started several times since, I did drive it to the gas station a few miles down the road to fill it up, but the tags went out in 2010 so it needs to be checked out and properly prepared before you take off down the highway. Not a lot of these left around so don't let this one get away. This car is not perfect and I know i missed a few things, so please look at the pictures and ask before you bid. Also this is a 43 year old car, so. There is NO warranty and it is sold as is and will need shipped or trailered since the tags and sticker are out and it has been setting. I will cancel bids from anyone with NO or BAD feed back unless you contact me first. I have heard all the scams don't waste our time. I will just report you and move on. This is not an option to buy it is a binding contract. There will be a $1000 Paypal deposit that is NON-REFUNDABLE due within 24 hrs from the time the auction ends. The remaining balance must be paid for in person with cash, or a certified check from your bank will need to clear my bank before the car will be released. If I am not contacted within 24 hours or the deposit is not made on time I will re-list the car. I will keep the car for 30 days from the end of auction or work with a shipper for a pick up date. If you need more storage time contact me in person and we can work out the details, however all payments must be made in the 30 day period. If I am here I will help load it and do my best to assist with loading it for shippers, BUT, ALL shipping is the buyers responsibility. I am not always here but it can be picked up at anytime if you call ahead a bit. I will have someone available to release the car and take your money. This is a nice car. Its not perfect but I have a reasonable reserve. Me and my sons drove this car ourselves for many years. Call me with questions or ask before you bid. Come see it if you are near enough. After the auction is too late to ask and I will not refund deposits because you forgot to ask your wife if you could have it. or its not what you wanted after all. I would like to maintain my good feedback so talk to me so this deal is good for everyone involved. Non-payers will be reported and will receive bad feedback as it costs me money when it sells. My number is 1-806-664-9778, Good Luck and Thank You for bidding. Corky. |

2016 Dodge Challenger and Charger Hellcats see doubled production
Mon, Jul 27 2015The launch of the Hellcat supercharged V8 in the Dodge Challenger and Charger for the 2015 model year was a massive success. The one-two punch of muscle cars probably grabbed the brand more headlines than it had seen in ages by offering a world-beating 707 horsepower from the growling engine under the hood. The only real wrench in the works was keeping up with all of the orders. For 2016, Dodge might have fixed that little problem with plans to make more than twice as many of these mean machines Despite production seeing a massive boost, a few customers with orders for 2015 examples will need to wait just a little longer to experience those 707 ponies. The automaker will cancel any unscheduled, sold orders for the current model, but those buyers will receive a discount on the 2016. Similar to last year, dealers will earn their allocation of the muscle cars based on Dodge sales and how long the Hellcats stay on their lots. There are some very tiny changes for any buyers who are holding out for the 2016 Hellcats, too. Mechanically, they are identical to the 2015s with a 6.2-liter supercharged V8 and eight-speed automatic. The interiors see some improvements, though. Both the Challenger and Charger now receive standard Laguna Leather upholstery and an improved 8.4-inch Uconnect system with navigation, an HD radio, and five years of SiriusXM Travel Link and Traffic. Orders for both open in the second week of August, and production actually begins in September in Brampton, Ontario, Canada.
Preserved truck found at the bottom of frozen lake
Tue, Jan 26 2016A fisherman in central Minnesota pulled more than bluegill and bass out of his local fishing hole earlier this month. While ice fishing on Mayhew Lake, a local man was startled when, using an underwater camera to scout for fish, he discovered a vehicle sitting on the lakebed, the SCTimes reported. He immediately called the Benton County Sheriff's office, which sent deputies to examine the vehicle. Once they arrived, the deputies used their own camera to have a look and discovered a late-90s to early-00s model Dodge Ram pickup in roughly 12 feet of water. The Sheriff's department dive team was then dispatched to search the truck and the area surrounding it for bodies or valuables. The truck was lifted from the lakebed through a huge hole in the ice. The Sheriff's office ran the plates and discovered that it was reported stolen in March of 2000 from a nearby address. Investigators believe that given the truck's location, almost 100 yards from the lake's public access ramp and 25 yards from the north shore, that it was driven on to the lake while it was frozen, then allowed to sink to the bottom once the ice melted. Thanks to the lake's frigid waters, the truck was surprisingly well preserved. Aside from a missing grille, a coating of mud inside, and a patina of rust on the sheet metal, there was little damage to the truck despite its long rest in the lake. With an engine full of lake water and the damage done by roughly sixteen freeze-thaw cycles, the truck will never run again, but its condition is a good testament to the build quality of those old Rams. It certainly held up better than that '57 Plymouth Belvedere they buried in the time capsule under the Tulsa city courthouse.

2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat revealed [UPDATE]
Wed, 13 Aug 2014Almost immediately after we drove the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, we began wondering: what's next? Pumping 707 horsepower into the Challenger seemed so crazy - and so intoxicating - we just assumed that Dodge would try that trick again.
Rumors swirled about a Charger Hellcat. Frankly it makes even more sense than the Challenger version. The Charger is a bigger car, and Dodge has never been shy about dropping monster engines under its hood. Hell (cat), we've seen Charger mules running around town that appeared to be the super sedan.
And finally, it's here. The 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat was revealed today at a preview event near Detroit, and it will be a centerpiece of the Chrysler display this weekend at the Woodward Dream Cruise.
