Well were do I start. I own a restoration shop and we built this dart for my girl friend. Well she's gone now (thank you)!!! It's a western sport special car, meaning it was born with a slant six and came from the west coast. The car was 90% rust free, and what rust it did have we replaced with AMD sheet metal. This is a very, very nice car with beautiful B5 blue paint, straighter than a arrow. She wanted cloth interior so it's got gray and black cloth interior, the buckets are out of a 73 duster. New dash trim plastic, arm rests and bases, headliner, sun visors, carpet, wind rollers, all weather stripping and window fuzzies. I'm a big block guy so I dropped in a 69 383 magnum that's freshly rebuilt. The 383 is .040 over, comp cam, new valves, springs, hardened seats, etc. The transmission is fresh, with a 2800 turbo action stall. It has a 8 3/4 axle with 3.91:1 gears and a sure grip (posi) also new. Put new bumpers on it, hood inserts, polished all the stainless and the aluminum trim. All new front suspension, installed front disk brakes. New tires, 2 1/2 inch exhaust. The car has less than 22 miles on it sense the restoration, including the engine. I've got a ton of money in this car, it was built right. You won't find a nicer muscle car for under my reserve price. This Dart truly is fresh and ready to tear up the streets.

Dodge Charger R/T NHRA Funny Car is ready to burn rubber at SEMA [w/video]
Wed, 05 Nov 2014The Dodge Charger R/T is all set to rocket down the drag strip in NHRA Funny Car competition with a completely redesigned body debuting at this year's SEMA Show. While only the front decal, side scallops and rear logo really signal this racer as a Charger, that doesn't take away from its promise of hitting absolutely ludicrous speeds.
The engineers' biggest tweak to the body was moving the cockpit further back. This created more clearance under the hood, and the change came with added advantage of giving the driver better visibility out of the car. Composites like Kevlar also helped make the one-piece shell even lighter, while not sacrificing strength.
The new design has already undergone extensive time in the wind tunnel and real-world runs to make sure that none of the changes negatively impacted the aerodynamics. With those tests out of the way, the Charger R/T Funny Car will have the first chance to truly prove itself in NHRA competition at the 2015 Winternationals from February 5-9 at Auto Club Raceway in Pomona, CA.
NHTSA investigating 110,000 Ram 2500s and 3500s, one death alleged
Fri, 23 May 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has launched an investigation focusing on 110,000 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 pickups from model years 2004 to 2006. One death has already been reported, according to NHTSA, due to a potential fault with the clutch interlocks on manual-transmission versions of the heavy duty pickup.
According to the report, these trucks can be started without depressing the clutch. There have been three reports so far, and as we mentioned above, one very sad incident seems to have resulted in the death of a child.
"One complaint involved an incident that occurred when a child was able to enter the vehicle and start the ignition without depressing the clutch. The vehicle then moved forward striking another child resulting in a fatality," NHTSA said in the investigation bulletin, which you can view below.
Dodge to resurrect Scat Pack?
Fri, 27 Sep 2013Before social media ever existed, if automotive enthusiasts wanted to be noticed or recognize other fans, they joined a car club. For Dodge muscle car lovers from 1968 through 1971, that group was known as the Scat Pack. Just like the Charger, Challenger and Dart nameplates, it looks like the Scat Pack could be getting a resurrection by Chrysler.
Automotive News is reporting that Chrysler recently renewed its trademark on the Scat Pack name, and while this is in no way a guarantee that the name will return, AN talked to Tim Kuniskis, Dodge President and CEO, who stoked the fire a little more. In the article, Kuniskis said that the name is "a very important part of our history" and added that "we like the whole idea of having a Scat Pack of cars." Scat Pack models were identified by their bumblebee stripes and helmet-wearing bumblebee logo, and the idea of a modern Scat Pack doesn't seem all that outlandish in light of recent vehicles like the Charger SRT Super Bee and the Ram 1500 Rumble Bee Concept.
What do you think, is this a cool idea, or is it just an unwelcome bit of nostalgia? Have you say in Comments.
