1974 Dodge Challenger (not 1970,1971,1972,1973) on 2040-cars
Clairton, Pennsylvania, United States
Up for sale is this awesome 1974
Plum Crazy Dodge Challenger. This car just went through a complete professional
restoration, and nearly every nut and bolt is new. All rotted metal was cut out
and replaced, no bondo was used on this ride. The car was just repainted, in awesome Plum Crazy metallic paint. New fiberglass hood, with hood scoop,
new fiberglass bumpers, new marker lights, new weatherstrips everywhere, and
new windshield.
Car was originally a 318, but was
replaced with a rebuilt 440, that has under 10,000 miles. Everything else is
new and has less than 200 miles, including: a rebuilt 727 transmission with a
shift kit and B&M Quicksilver shifter, a new custom made driveshaft, and a
rebuilt rear. New headers with a 3" Flowmaster exhaust. Rebuilt carb. New
Champion aluminum radiator with electric cooling fan. Chrome valve covers,
alternator and pullies. MSD Ignition and distributor. New gas tank, fuel lines,
brake lines, master cylinder. New front and rear sway bars. Also, both center
headlights were removed and replaced with a chromed out, cold ram air system
with dual air filters and you really feel it when you step on the gas.
The interior is also completely
redone. New carpet, seat covers front and rear, Grant steering wheel,
headliner, custom floor mats and a new dash pad. Blue LED lighting added under
seats and dash. And Blue LED streetglow around the underneath side of car, that
really lights up the road.
Now the negatives, which are basically insignificant when compared to all of the new items on this restored classic. The windshield wipers have
stopped working. I just found out that it is an electrical issue that may
possibly be corrected soon. Also, the fuel gauge does not work. The rods in the
doors are not connected to the key locks, so it can not be locked from the
outside- only from the inside. So there are a few little things
that need to be fixed, but for what this car will be used for, they do not need
to be fixed immediately to enjoy the car. A hose going to the steering box has
a very small leak- I am currently working on fixing this issue. All of the minor issues listed
above are accounted for in the reserve price.
-As you can see in these pictures,
there is a small chip in the paint on the molding that is attached to the
fender, not the fender. The chip is slightly touched up to the point that it is barely noticeable. All other paint is flawless and
just about show quality, no dents, no scratches. - Also, although the vinyl top is
new, it has a couple of small wrinkles near the back. You will have to
look very closely to even notice.
The reserve is set very reasonably.
I have done my very best to list even the smallest issues, so there will be
absolutely no surprises when you view the car. I purchased this vehicle mid-way
through the summer last year. Since that
time, my financial situation has changed. Over 40k has been spent to rebuild the
car. Getting divorced last year has really sent my finances for a loop! I need
to part with some things I really enjoy, but do not need to survive. My
loss is your gain. Good luck! |

More than half of Mazdas sold in 2018 are CX-5s, and other interesting sales facts
Mon, Jan 7 2019Last year was a seriously good year for carmakers. Overall, more vehicles were sold than in 2017, and the total number wasn't far off of the all-time record in 2016. Digging deeper into the numbers, you'll find some pretty usual stuff including the Ford F-Series still being the bestselling pickup truck in America, and a continued trend toward crossovers. But there are also some oddball factoids tucked in these sales reports, some that defy the trends, and some that are extremes of the public's buying preferences. We've compiled several interesting tidbits from last year's sales right here for your enjoyment. More than half of Mazda's sales were of CX-5s Yes, over half of all Mazda sales were of this one model. The company sold 300,325 cars in America last year, and 150,622 of them were CX-5 crossovers, or 50.1 percent. Just for emphasis, that means the other 49.8 percent of Mazda's sales were split among five other models, the Miata, 3, 6, CX-3 and CX-9. Breaking that down further, the second-best seller was the Mazda3 at 64,638, which isn't even half of the CX-5's sales. People are crazy for Mazda's middle crossover. Volkswagen actually sold more cars than crossovers It's clear that the crossover is the future king of car sales. For most mainstream brands, it already is. Chevy, Ford, Honda, Toyota, Subaru, Mazda and Nissan all sold more crossovers and SUVs than they did conventional sedans and hatchbacks. There are holdouts, though, and one of them is Volkswagen. At the end of 2018, the company sold 189,343 cars and 164,721 crossovers in the U.S. So that's one win for the classic car set, and it's justification for VW to maintain its car line for the foreseeable future. It's a bit of a hollow victory, though. Look closer and you'll see that car sales were down 28 percent from 2017, when VW sold 262,029 cars. Crossovers, on the other hand, jumped 112 percent from 2017 when 77,647 crossovers moved through U.S. dealers. So expect the tables to turn very soon. Mustang is still the muscle-car sales king, but Challenger is the only one to improve Once again, the Ford Mustang topped the muscle-car sales charts, beating out the Dodge Challenger and Chevy Camaro. Ford moved 75,842 of the ponies in 2018, while Dodge sold 66,716 Challengers for second place, and Chevy sold 50,963 Camaros to bring up the rear.
Watch dual-engined Dodge SRT4 do a FWD burnout, a RWD burnout, then AWD launch
Wed, Dec 3 2014There's something fantastically insane about racers who go out on their own and build something unique. Just take this crazy video from last year of a twin-engine Dodge SRT4 at a drag strip that can burn the rubber at either end – or both ends – at a moment's notice. With tires sticking out way past the fenders, a massive cooling system at the front and no back window to speak of, this Dodge is clearly meant solely for speed. Though it's real party trick is being able to spin the front or rear wheels independently. The setup makes for three quite showy burnouts. When it came time to actually get down the track, things got somewhat awkward. Like other twin-engine creations we've seen, the separate powertrains make for some odd sounds and a weird look launching down the strip. Still, there's no doubt that the engineering behind this Frankenstein is very impressive. Scroll down to see this monster in action and another of it in a very mismatched race last year.

Aficionauto drives Vin Diesel's fast and furious 1970 Dodge Charger
Mon, 15 Sep 2014The Aficionauto host Christopher Rutkowski has a real passion for original and replica cars from movies and television, whether they are from James Bond, Jurassic Park, or incredibly obscure Japanese shows. However, he might have outdone himself this time because he hopped into one of the biggest automotive stars of contemporary cinema. This 1970 Dodge Charger appeared in Fast & Furious and came back in Fast Five, where Paul Walker actually drove it. The menacing, black muscle car will make its return to the franchise in the seventh film, too.
The Fast and Furious Charger is a real beast no matter how you look at it. The interior is nothing more than two seats and a roll cage, and as the video shows, this thing vibrates constantly like a coiled mass of muscle ready to strike. The camera can barely stay in place most of the time. Also, Dom's Dodge is more than happy to do a smoky burnout and leave the driver partially deaf afterward from its wonderful, ear-splitting engine roar.
The Aficionauto also interviews the man who controls the keys to this beast. Bob Hartwig was once an F-15 pilot, but he also loved Hollywood vehicles. Now, he's a partner at Picture Car Warehouse, a company with about 850 cars that supplies vehicles to film studios. This Charger definitely seems to be Hartwig's favorite in the collection, as it should be.
