This is the same model car that was only rated (most say underrated insurance companies corrected it to 325 hp) at 275 horse but could run with or outrun the 350HP 350 corvette and run with the 383 Dart GTS in a straight line and outperform the 383 gts in corners!  Here is a link providing more info about how incredible these cars really are

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrysler_LA_engine

I have included pictures of everything I have for the car, so if there is a part that's not pictured Its likely I don't have it! That being said I believe the car is very complete. If there are any items you are concerned about, please call me or email me through ebay and I can help determine if there is something missing!

This car is 99.99% rust free 1969 dart 340 gts 4 SPEED CAR with bucket seats console and factory tachometer. This is a very solid NEW MEXICO car . I purchased it from the second owner a month ago but due to financial reasons I cannot build it at this time. This car is very straight rust free and about the most solid old mopar I have seen in a long time. Body is straight (has had minor bodywork in 2 places  small scrapes on drivers rear quarter maybe one size of silver dollar and the other even smaller. These have already been repaired. it has all the original sheet metal and has never showed any signs of rust. Frame rails, quarters fenders doors,truck pan  and floor pans original solid and rust free. car has a tiny ding (about 1 cm dimple) by top body line just above and to left of gas filler hole, I showed it in the pictures. It also has a bend lower radiator support, looks like someone may have tried to tow it from radiator support or something, it may be able to be straightened but it will need a repair. Its a very easy repair to make, even for a novice!This car is very close to 100% complete, it needs some final sanding and then paint and re-assembly. THE 340 IN THE PICTURES IS NOT INCLUDE IN AUCTION BUT WILL BE AVAILABLE TO WINNER FOR $2900. IT IS COMPLETELY REBUILT PROFESSIONAL WITH MILD PORT WORK ON HEADS A 268 CAM AND EDELBROCK INTAKE (edelbrock name ground off intake painted orange for stock appearance). I have decoded all the options and they are listed below, this car has many desirable options!!!

I HAVE MORE PICTURES OF CAR AND PARTS HERE

The parts that are on newspaper in pictures have already been refinished/painted and are ready for installation.

I realize lighting in pictures was off on some, however if you need i can send more pictures so you can see how straight car really is.

These cars bring over $30,000 or more easily when completed. I have had estimates of $1400 to $2200 for paint and final sanding etc to complete body. It has new interior still in box including seat foam that needs replacing and headliner. From what I can tell car is very complete and many parts have already been painted and reconditioned. It will need some Misc parts like vinyl top headlights and battery etc. I estimated car could be completed for about $3000-$4500 depending on who did paint and interior/vinyl top and how much work a the new owner wanted to tackle himself (this would be assuming winner bought engine available for $2900 to winning bidder).


You could build this car enjoy then sell for a huge profit! As most people know its hard to get your money back out of most projects, but this car is so solid and complete it wont be a long costly painful restoration. I SEE SO MANY RUSTED OUT JUNK CARS SOLD TO PEOPLE LOOKING FOR PROJECTS. I WONDER IF THESE GUYS REALIZE HOW MUCH IT COSTS TO GET A RUSTED OUT JUNKER INTO THE KIND OF CONDITION THIS CAR IS IN? YOU COULD BUY A CHEAPER CAR THAT NEEDS TONS OF RUST REPAIR/BODY WORK AND PARTS, BUT IN THE END YOU WOULD SPEND WAY LESS TIME AND MONEY TO BUY A SOLID 99% COMPLETE PROJECT LIKE THIS. IT JUST MAKES SENSE!

This car has a factory tach that mounts on the console. Tack is in very nice condition and has been checked out and verified to work by a local company that works on auto gauges. THESE TACHS ALONE CAN BRING $1100 ON EBAY!!! Tach is included with auction along with everything else shown in pictures EXCEPT THE ENGINE!!!


If you are looking for a great muscle car to restore this is an easy project. Car was stored in dry storage in New Mexico for better part of 2 decades and it shows. The only rust is slight surface rust on a few surfaces, just hit quickly with sandpaper ans its gone! I invite you to inspect car and parts in person. Just call me at 505-203-3447 and we can arrange that!


Don't spend tons of time and money scouring swap meets and the net for parts then tons more time doing lots of rust repair to frame and body, with this car you wont need to!!!

This is a no reserve auction so bid to win, and remember  REBUILT 340 ENGINE IS NOT INCLUDED IN AUCTION BUT WILL BE AVAILABLE TO WINNING BIDDER FOR AN ADDITIONAL $2900, WHICH JUST COVERS COST OF REBUILD AFTER CORE WAS PURCHASED!

If you need car delivered that can be arranged but call me to make arrangements before you bid! I have a flatbed and can deliver for a reasonable price!


I have had a few people wanting to bid but aren't sure if they will have tax return in time, if this is an issue please contact me I am reasonable and I will work with you possibly extending final payment. Also, if I need to store vehicle for awhile while you arranging shipping etc call me and we can work that out!

Jay Leno drives a 1970 Dodge Charger with 1,650 horsepower

Tue, Feb 23 2016

When Jay Leno says a vehicle might have too much horsepower, he's got our attention piqued. That's exactly what he thinks about the 1970 Dodge Charger Tantrum from Wisconsin-based SpeedKore Performance. While it still looks like a classic muscle car, the front end now features a carbon fiber hood and fenders. Underneath the lightweight parts, there's a twin-turbo, 9.0-liter Mercury Marine offshore boat racing engine with an astonishing 1,650 horsepower, or an only slightly less asinine 1,350 hp on pump gas. Jay is very mechanically intrigued by the Charger at the beginning of this video, and puts it on the lift to take a look at the underside. The engine plumbing is a thing of beauty, and the mill packs a massive radiator and intercooler to keep things running cool. Leno's drive in the Tantrum is especially interesting. The beastly engine is difficult to control, and anything above half throttle in most gears can spin the rear tires. The significant turbo lag also makes the power unpredictable. When Jay finally finds a straight piece of road, he puts the hammer down and rockets into the distance. And, of course, you know Jay's not going to end the video without some suitably smoking tires.

Dodge delaying Challenger Hellcats ordered with satin black hood [UPDATE]

Tue, Dec 16 2014

The new Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat is one of the most formidable muscle cars on the planet. And it looks the part, too – especially with the optional satin black hood. But if you were one of the first customers to place an order for the 707-horsepower Mopar muscle car and specified the black hood on the options sheet, you may have to wait awhile. According to members of the Hellcat.org forum cited by Car and Driver, deliveries of certain Challenger Hellcats have been delayed without explanation. When these fanatic customers started looking into the issue, they realized that all of the delayed orders shared one thing in common: they all had ordered their Dodges with that optional black hood. Although an exact reason wasn't specified, those who ordered the black hood on their Challenger coupes were told that delivery was being pushed back to February. But some were reportedly informed by their local dealership that things could be moved along if they switched their order to a body-colored hood instead. It's not clear if the issue is a supplier problem, a paint booth issue at the factory, or something else entirely. We've reached out to Dodge for clarification, and will update this story when we hear back. UPDATE: Reached for comment, a Dodge spokesperson confirmed to Autoblog that the satin black hood "is not currently available for production" and that customers who ordered it "can opt to change their order to a body-color hood" or otherwise have their orders delayed until the option becomes available at a later date to be confirmed.

Fiat Chrysler's profit boosted by Ram and Jeep in North America

Wed, Jul 31 2019

MILAN/DETROIT — Fiat Chrysler took the market by surprise by sticking to its full-year profit guidance on Wednesday after a strong performance from its Ram pickup truck in North America helped it defy an industry slowdown. Chief Executive Mike Manley, in FCA's first earnings release since a failed attempt to merge with France's Renault, also left the door open to that or other deals. "We are open to opportunity," Manley said on a call with analysts. "I have no doubt why there still would be interest in it," he added, when pressed on what it would take to revive talks with Renault. Manley declined to comment further. FCA last month abandoned its $35 billion merger offer for Renault, blaming French politics for scuttling what would have been a landmark deal to create the world's third-biggest automaker. Manley said a merger was not a must-have and Fiat Chrysler's business plan was strong. The company said it remained confident its adjusted earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) would top last year's 6.7 billion euros ($7.5 billion). Given disappointing forecasts from other automakers this earnings season, FCA's confirmation of the outlook sent Milan-listed shares in the Italian-American automaker, whose other brands include Jeep, up over 4%. A broad-based auto sales downturn has rattled the sector, forcing FCA's competitors — including Renault, Daimler and Aston Martin — to cut their sales forecasts after second-quarter results, while U.S. carmaker Ford gave a weaker-than-expected 2019 profit outlook. Japan's Nissan, a long-term partner of Renault, said it would cut 12,500 jobs by 2023 after its earnings collapsed. In the second quarter FCA's adjusted EBIT totaled 1.52 billion euros, versus analysts' expectations of 1.43 billion euros, according to a Reuters poll. FCA's U.S. shipments were down 12% in the second quarter but the group said that the successful performance of its Ram brand resulted in an enhanced share of the large pickup truck market of 27.9%, up 7 percentage points from last year. Adjusted EBIT margin in North America rose to 8.9% from 6.5% in the first quarter, thanks to strong demand for the heavy-duty Ram and the new Jeep Gladiator pickup. Chief Financial Officer Richard Palmer also said FCA expected to report up to 10% margins in the region in both the third and fourth quarters.
