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. |

Watch the Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat verify its 204-mph top speed
Thu, Jan 29 2015The industry is producing some ridiculously fast four-doors these days, from the Porsche Panamera and Maserati Quattroporte to the Mercedes E63 AMG and BMW M5. But the fastest of them all doesn't cost six figures. It doesn't even come from Europe. It's made right here in North America, by a US automaker. And it starts at under $64k. We're talking about the Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat, the Pentastar muscle sedan with the 6.2-liter supercharged V8 and its 707 horsepower. Dodge claims it's the "quickest, fastest, most powerful [production] sedan ever," and they're not just blowing smoke... or smoking tires. During the final stages of development, engineers from Auburn Hills took a bone-stock, Hellcat-powered Charger out to a seven-mile oval for a top speed run and they filmed the occasion for posterity. The result? 206.9 miles per hour with the wind, 202.2 against it, for a two-way average top speed of 204.55 mph. Chew on that, imports.
Brits recreate iconic Bullitt chase scene
Tue, 13 May 2014Recreating 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.
The Dodge Demon was developed under a cloud of smoke
Tue, Jun 6 2017The Dodge Demon needs no introduction. The car is so full of superlatives that most of it sounds unbelievable until you see and hear it in action. The car was revealed after months of teasers and cryptic messages, but the public weren't the only ones in the dark. From the start, the Demon's development was a closely guarded secret. There were even some within SRT that didn't know about the project. The people behind the car went through a lot of effort to keep it that way. At an event covering the finer details of the Demon's supercharged 6.2-liter V8, Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis and SRT Powertrain Director Chris Cowland spoke about the smoke and mirrors used to hide the Demon's development. Work on the car progressed for nearly two years before it was made public, with just a small team having full access to the project. Numbers were altered. Secret meetings were held. SRT engineers worked nights and weekends while parts suppliers were given as little information as possible to move progress forward. Preliminary work on the Demon began in April of 2015, not long after the standard Hellcat hit the streets. The goal wasn't to create a faster Hellcat. Kuniskis said that would have been easy. They wanted a single-minded vehicle that could also be driven on the road. It's the same mindset that brought about the Dodge Viper ACR. Dodge wanted a car that could sell the brand to both enthusiasts and non-enthusiasts alike. 840 horsepower is going to raise anyone's eyebrows, including the Camry owner parked down the street. While preliminary work started in April, the final greenlight wasn't given until September. The project was originally going to revive the American Drag Racer, or ADR, name. When we saw the first hints of the Demon last fall, we labeled the spy photo above the Dodge Challenger ADR. It was set to have 10-percent more power and 20-percent more launch force than the already gut-punching Hellcat. It was also only going to have a quarter-mile time in the 10s, just slightly quicker than the Hellcat. Somewhere along the line, the team realized that the ADR wasn't enough. It was just going to be a Hellcat plus, and that wasn't exciting. The main goal was changed: 9s with light. Translated, that means a 9-second quarter mile with light under the tires (read: a wheelie). From that point forward, everything about the Demon's development, from power to suspension to weight, would be done in pursuit of that goal.
