1970 Dodge Dart on 2040-cars
San Pierre, Indiana, United States
If you have any questions feel free to email me at: donalddzzerhusen@boltonfans.com .
Up for sale is my 1970 Dodge Dart Swinger 340. I bought this car out of California earlier this year and had it
shipped via semi here to me in Indiana. This car has a pretty good history behind it in that it was given away by
Regal Gas stations and Hancock oil company thru H.W. Hunter Antelope valley Dodge which is still in business today.
And YES I have the original ticket laminated that goes with the car. Back in the day regal gas stations had
promotions that gave away items for using there gas stations and as you can imagine this would have been the top
prize. The car was given away april 10 1970 to a lucky winner. The front license plate frame still shows H.W.
Hunter Dodge. Now for the car. It is original Hemi orange black top and black scat pack tail stripe car. The paint
is original and a few spots has been repainted in the past like the drivers front fender the stripes. Rear pan
under bumper has been replaced therefore it has new paint on it thus why the tail stripe doesnt follow on down. The
paint does have sum scratches and body has sum dents and dings but as I have said this car is original time
capsule. The motor is the 275 h.p. 340 and man it runs great! The motor has a warrenty replacment block from the
factory it does not have any numbers stamped on the block pad although it is date coded for 1970 therefore I
believe it to be as stated. It does have an new edlebrock carb but I do have the original carter that was on it.
Motor has been upgraded to electronic orange box ignition. Has a 727 trans and it does drip from the front seal,
The trans is the original numbers matching unit. has duel exhaust with cross over pipe and flowmaster style
mufflers and sounds great. Rear end is a 8 3/4 with 3.23 gears single track. I have changed the rear rubber brake
line and installed a new master cylinder that is true to car. Has manuel disc/drum brakes and stops great. Has
power steering. I put all 4 new shocks with rear coil overs on it also. Has a new gas tank and gauge does work. The
interior is in great condition no rips or tears carpet is newer. All gauges work and has the rare rallye dash
package with tac in the center. Wipers work. Blower motor flexible piping that goes to defrosters are gone.Glove
box light even works. Tires are in great condition and original rallye rims on car. One small spot under top as
shown in pics. The only rust spot is in the spare tire trunk area as seen in pic other then that what you see is
just paint degrigation cause it is all original.

Is Mopar readying a special-edition Dart for Chicago?
Sat, 26 Jan 2013Chrysler has released the above teaser of a limited-edition Mopar 2013 model that will be unveiled at next month's Chicago Auto Show. Although the automaker doesn't announce what vehicle will get the Mopar treatment, closer investigation of the seats and center console suggest that this car will be a special version of the 2013 Dodge Dart.
This will be the fourth Mopar model in as many years, following on the heels of the Mopar 2010 Challenger, Mopar 2011 Charger and the Mopar '2012 300. There are no details for the Mopar '13 Dart, but we do see that the car will retain the signature black-and-blue color scheme as past Mopar editions. Like these previous models, we expect production of Mopar '13 Dart to be limited to just 500 units.
Scroll down for Chrysler's press release teasing the new Mopar model, and we'll be sure to bring you plenty of live images from the show floor in a couple weeks.
How fracking is causing Chrysler minivans to sit on Detroit's riverfront
Fri, 25 Apr 2014It's fascinating the way that one change to a complex system can have all sorts of unintended consequences. For instance, there are hundreds of new Chrysler Town and County and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans built in Windsor, Ontario, sitting in lots on the Detroit waterfront because of the energy boom in the Bakken oil field in the northern US and parts of Canada.
The huge amount of crude oil coming from these sites mostly use freight trains for transport, and that supply boom has resulted in a shortage of railcars to carry other goods. According to The Windsor Star, North American crude oil transport by train has gone from 9,500 carloads in 2008 to 434,032 carloads in 2013. Making matters worse, some North American rail infrastructure is still damaged because of this year's harsh winter, and that's slowing things down even further.
Chrysler admits to The Star that it has had some delivery delays due to the freight train shortage. In the meantime, it's using more trucks to deliver its vehicles. Trucking is a far less economical solution, partially because a train can carry so many more units at one time, but alternatives are slim. The Windsor plant alone has a deal for 33 trucks to distribute the minivans around Canada and the Midwestern US.
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.
