1970 Dodge Dart Swinger Hardtop 2-door 5.9 No Reserve on 2040-cars
Oswego, Illinois, United States
Bid to win this beautiful 1970 Dodge Dart Swinger 340
tribute, originally a 318 car which was disassembled back in the early eighties
to be restored. The car changed hands three times without ever getting the
attention it deserved.. I bought the car about two years ago in primer (new
rear quarters installed) as a shell along with a truck load of parts in boxes.
I believe the car would have ended up as scrap as this owner was also
overwhelmed and was the next in line to give up on the project. I have four
other cars in various stages of restoration, however I couldn’t let this one
just disappear. So I spent the better part of the last two years painstakingly sorting,
cleaning and reconditioning parts and reassembling this gorgeous piece of
history. It now wears a beautiful brilliant orange paint job which
looks amazing from close up. I would consider the paint an 8 out of 10? It
looks far better than a driver quality, but is not completely flawless. The
bumpers have been painted to match. It stands out as one of the nicer cars at
most cruise night events. Under the hood sits a completely rebuilt late 70’s 360 with
a 340 intake and a, brand new Holley 650, mild cam and headers. Still has its
original low mile 904 transmission which was freshened (new converter) up along
with the 8 3/4 factory original rear end. All suspension parts were replaced as were all brake parts.
(4 wheel drum) The interior is original to the car as well, however the
seats dyed black and the door panels and headliner were replaced. All looks
very presentable. Factory rally wheels with newer Kelly Brand radials. The car is 98% finished but needs about $300.00-$500.00
worth of small items to be 100% complete Heater box not in the car (delete plate) I have some of
those pieces would take very little to install it. Wiper switch, glove box latch and few interior trim piece
missing (all still available) Like I said, would take very little to finish or drive it
and enjoy the way it is. I need the garage space for other projects I’m
involved in, so this one must go! The car starts and runs perfectly and can be driven
anywhere. I have about $15000.00 invested not including my time.. Clean clear Illinois title in my name. I COMPLETELY recommend a personal inspection!!!! I don’t
want and disappointments. NO RESERVE!!!!!! JUST LISTED LOCALLY, I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END AUCTION EARLY I may consider 68-72 Mopar, 67-70 Camaro project trades... Call with questions 630-999-3114 Mike |

Chrysler recalls small number of 2013-2014 cars and trucks over engine debris
Thu, 12 Dec 2013Chrysler is recalling a small number cars over issues with their 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines. The recall, which affects 522 examples of its 2013 Dodge Avenger and Chrysler 200 models, as well as 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot CUVs has to do with potential debris in the balance shaft bearings.
The abrasive stuff can cause the oil pressure to drop, which could lead to the engine stalling or outright failure. This situation could at best leave drivers stranded and at worst lead to a crash.
Chrysler will begin notifying owners, who will need to report in to have the balance shaft module replaced. All repairs are naturally free of charge. Scroll down for the bulletin from NHTSA.
2014 Dodge Durango bows with eight-speed auto, updated looks [w/video]
Thu, 28 Mar 2013Dodge has significantly updated its full-size Durango for the 2014 model year, giving the seven-passenger hauler a fresh look and a well-rounded boost of competitive features as it enters its fourth year in the showroom.
Cosmetically, it is hard to miss the revised front end with projector-beam headlamps and LED daytime running lamps, "floating" crosshair grille, a taller front bumper and a new lower fascia. The rear end of the facelifted Durango has been redesigned with the automaker's now-signature LED "racetrack" taillamps and resculpted rear fascia. All of the wheels are new too, with 18- and 20-inch options for each trim level with a variety of factory finishes.
Inside the cabin, buyers can select the automaker's latest Uconnect infotainment system with a full suite of infotainment features and connectivity accessed through an 8.4-inch touchscreen. Other optional goodies include a heated steering wheel, heated second-row seating and a Blu-Ray player capable of running unique programs on the twin individual rear monitors.
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.
