You are bidding on a 1969 Dodge Charger R/T (XS29). I purchased this car from a individual that bought it 3 years ago in dry storage. It was at a body shop and had $8,000 worth of bodywork such as new roof skin, upper front floor pans, new gas tank, new front windshield and gasket, several other things. Car has excellent body lines and is laser straight. Car wi need new bumpers front and rear 700.00. Interior kit around 2 k for just about everything. Prob 5-7 k would finish car. Also i replaced the left quarter panel cause of a couple rust holes which i thought could have been patched but the painter thought it would be best to replace the full quarter panel. I believe the right quarter panel is original. This car is very solid, rust free automobile. The engine is a 440 with a pretty hefty cam,also new 600 holly carburetor, also with a 727 automatic transmission, limited slip rear end, has stall converter. I payed $6,000 for the new black paint job, this car needs to be wet sanded and buffed to be finished. I have purchased mostly all new stainless trim for vinyl top to be installed. The car will need the new vinyl top material, will need all interior restored. Will need new door panels, seat covers, headliner, carpet, door handles, and miscellaneous. The transmission has a small leak somewhere, not sure exactly but it does leak a little, possibly from sitting for several years. Brand new disc brakes installed last week (1k). A mechanic told me that the cam was too big, not allowing it to create enough vacuum for the power brakes to work. You have to really stand on the brakes hard for the car to stop. Car will run and drive. Gauge cluster will need to be restored, some of the gauges are not working. If you have any questions please text or call Dalton at (205) 337-4457. Car will be sold with bill of sale only. Alabama did not require titles on vehicles until 1975. If needed i can provide registration, over 25k invested in this car! Thanks for looking!

2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat

Wed, 29 Oct 2014

Including all-wheel-drive models, there are ten versions of the 2015 Dodge Charger. The tenth variant - better described as the ten-tenths variant and the topmost model - is this Charger SRT Hellcat.
Superficially, you already know what it is: take the massively powerful Hellcat engine that's Frankensteined into the Dodge Challenger and stitch it into the recently facelifted Charger sedan.
Oh, but that would be superficial knowledge indeed. Russ Ruedisueli, vehicle line executive and head engineer for SRT, claims the Charger Hellcat is, "The industry's most irreverent four-door supercar." We looked up the word "irreverent" in the Oxford dictionaries, and it turns out the word doesn't mean "707 horsepower," nor "650 pound-feet of torque" nor "3.7-second 0-60 time, and seats five adults." It does mean, "Showing a lack of respect for people or things that are generally taken seriously."

Small number of 2013 Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger models recalled

Sun, 24 Feb 2013

A small number of units of the 2013 Chrysler 200 (inset) and 2013 Dodge Avenger are being recalled over a broken control valve in the fuel tank assembly. The potential 1,785 sedans were manufactured late last year, and if affected with a broken control valve could suffer from stalling or fuel leakage.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration notes that the recall should begin next month, at which time owners can take their cars to dealers for repair free of charge. The full release with more information is just below.

Dodge to resurrect Scat Pack?

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

Before 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.
