Here's the story on this car. I had been looking for a mid 60's MOPAR for a few different reasons. My wife's Uncle was part owner of a Dodge dealership back in the 60's and early 70's (Heaven for any MOPAR lover). I had seen the movie " Mr. Holland's Opus " and he used a 65 Coronet for his first Driver's Education car - with some very funny scenes. My Granddaughter is going thru Drivers Ed right now and I thought a tribute care with EAST TOWER DODGE on the side of the car would be great for everybody. WELL, I just can't get it done. For some reason I just don't get everything done anymore like I used to. I'm 60 now and things just take longer. I'm not going to be able to get this car anywhere near finished in time. So it's for sale.

I bought the car out of Nebraska and had it shipped here so it's not an Illinois rust bucket. But PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE read this description closely. This car needs a complete restoration. Yes, it will run. Yes, the transmission works, Yes, the brakes work and yes, it has good tires on it. The car runs rough and it smokes (blue). It looks pretty good in the pictures but it's a rattle can paint job just so the neighbors wouldn't complain when it's out (it's been stored inside most all the time). The lower part of the left front fender is rusted pretty bad. The lower front part of the right front fender is bent and can probably be straightened. The rear quarters are in surprisingly good shape as are the floors. The interior needs restored. The windshield has wiper streaks on it but the rest of the glass looks good. The car has an almost new battery and a new fuel pump in it but I think the carb needs rebuilt to help it run a little smoother. I also purchased a set of used "driver quality" tail lights that may be worth about half of my starting price. I also have access to another wide block 318 (from a 64 I think). It can go with the car if it is picked up before March 31. IT MUST BE OUT OF THE STORAGE AREA BY THEN. It's a spare 318 a buddy had for his 64 Dodge and it was supposed to be a good running engine before it was pulled and put in storage. Keep in mind that if the car is shipped, the only place to put the spare engine would be in the trunk of this car and to leave the trunk lid open. It could do some terrific damage before it got to where it was going.

Another thing, I would like a deposit on the car within 3-4 days but some of you may be waiting on a tax return (I remember those). I will wait up to a month on the balance but the car must be paid for before it ships or is picked up. NO I WILL NOT TAKE A CHECK ON THE DAY THE CAR IS PICKED UP. Bring green money (or silver or gold). Good Luck

Please ask any questions. I want the buyer to be well informed about this car. THIS IS A NO RESERVE AUCTION

Dodge CEO and Gas Monkey Garage dissect the 10-second Challenger Hellcat

Fri, 11 Jul 2014

So far, whenever we've seen the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT with its 707-horsepower, supercharged Hellcat V8, the muscle car has been smoking its tires. Dodge is finally proving that the SRT can do more than ruin perfectly good sets of rubber, though. In it's latest video, company CEO Tim Kuniskis hands the Hellcat off to the guys from Gas Monkey Garage to show how quickly the automaker's most powerful model can make it down the drag strip.
Of course, the only fitting contender to race against Dodge's latest top muscle car is its grandpa - a Hemi-powered 1971 Challenger, in this case. Before getting to the main event, the hosts also show off some of the SRT's unique features like the blanks in the grille that feed the intercoolers. We'll go ahead and spoil that the Hellcat makes its pass in the 10-second range, and the video admits the tires on the production version would take just a touch longer to cover the quarter-mile. However, you have to watch film to see just how quick it actually goes. Scroll down to see a classic example of American muscle drag racing against its modern legacy.

Travis Pastrana signs with Dodge for another year, brings partner Bryce Menzies [w/video]

Sun, 14 Apr 2013

Dodge and SRT Motorsports announced that the Dodge Dart will be returning for its sophomore season of the Global Rallycross Championship with a two-car team fielded by Pastrana Racing. Travis Pastrana drove his GRC Dart to victory lane in the fourth race of the car's inaugural season, and his race team is looking for even more success with the addition of off-road racer Bryce Menzies behind the wheel of the second car.
The 2013 GRC season kicks off on April 21 in Brazil with plenty of dirt-spewing, ramp-jumping action. Scroll down for a video from the cars' main sponsor, Red Bull, and a press release from Chrysler.

Experience the Woodward Dream Cruise in a Dodge Challenger Hellcat

Thu, Aug 20 2015

While Autoblog was consumed by coverage of the increasingly important Monterey Car Week last weekend, there was another big even going on. The Woodward Dream Cruise is significantly lighter in terms of news, but there's no denying that it's a far bigger, and far more egalitarian than what the wine-and-cheese crowd experience on the links at Pebble Beach. The Dream Cruise crams tens of thousands of cars and over a million spectators along a four-lane ribbon of asphalt between Ferndale and Pontiac, MI. What's remarkable aren't these numbers, though, so much as the distances they travel. Owners and admirers come from far and wide, across the United States and in some cases across the globe, to take in the spectacle. This year, local radio and television coverage featured fans that traveled from Japan, Australia, and Europe, just to take in the cruise. Of course, we realize that not everyone can make the pilgrimage to Woodward Avenue. With that fact in mind, we decided to bring a bit of the Dream Cruise to Autoblog with a time-lapse video of the cruise route. You can experience the good (a Lamborghini Gallardo, Chevrolet Chevelle, and Oldsmobile Cutlass 442), the bad (the traffic jams), and the ugly (no, your 2003 Ford Focus does not qualify as a classic, get the hell out of the cruiser lanes). So join us, as we turn off 8 Mile Road behind the wheel of our 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat and run north, through Ferndale, Pleasant Ridge, Royal Oak, Huntington Woods, Berkley, Bloomfield Township, and Bloomfield Hills, before ending up on Wide Track Drive in Pontiac.
