ONE OF ABOUT 1100 FACTORY 440 FOUR SPEEDS BUILT

I restored this beautiful Coronet R/T to original condition.  Its a real deal R/T that is as solid and reliable as any late model car. Not a show car, this car is ready for the road but it wont take much to bring it up to the next show level.

This is the best color combination and everywhere it goes, it gets compliments and always draws a crowd at car shows.

The paint is basecoat/clearcoat TT1 medium green metallic with the correct dual band bumblebee stripe that has been painted on.  It also has a new Legendary vinyl top that looks great.  It comes with a set of Wheel Vintiques 15" Magnum 500s on BFG Radials with about 5000 miles on them, not the Keystones in the pictures. 

The interior of the car is also new from Legendary including seat covers, door panels and carpet.  Everything works.

The original 440 has 906 heads with some port work, a vintage Edelbrock TM7 intake, a Holley 870 Street Avenger carb, an older DC .509 purple shaft cam, an 8 qt Milodon oil pan, a Mopar chrome box ignition and headers with a new exhaust.  All of the original parts come with it.  It runs strong but getting tired and could probably use some freshening up.  The transmission is an 18 spline "Hemi crash box" 4 speed with a Dana 60 rear with 3.54 gears, all factory installed and documented.  I put a new Centerforce clutch in it recently.

Manual steering and brakes.  This is a real deal musclecar without the fluff.  It came without a console from the factory but I have a correct green console that is available separately.  The car also came with power windows from the factory but have been retrofitted with easier to use and find parts for crank-up windows.

Every panel on the car is the original from the factory.  There are some holes in the trunk floor but does not need an entire new floor to properly repair it.  That is the only rust on the car and I mean it.  The chrome is all there and could use some detailing.  I removed the chrome rocker moldings because I like the cleaner look without them but they come with the car with new clips if you wish to reinstall them.

I have owned this car since 2001 and representing it the best I can.

The car is also for sale locally.

2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat with '600-plus horsepower' officially unveiled [w/video]

Tue, 20 May 2014

Dodge has officially unveiled the most powerful vehicle to ever wear the Challenger name - the SRT Hellcat - complete with over 600 horsepower courtesy of a supercharged, 6.2-liter Hemi V8. It will be offered alongside the 485-hp Challenger SRT.
The new, force-induced V8 isn't just the most powerful ever fitted to the Challenger, it's the most powerful eight-cylinder Chrysler Group has ever built. Power figures aren't finalized, so expect to see "over 600 hp" bandied about quite a lot. That fury will be channeled through either a six-speed manual or eight-speed automatic. Yes, over 600 ponies through an eight-speed auto. So far, the only vehicle we know of that delivers more output through that many gears is the as-yet untested Chevrolet Corvette Z06. Sadly, we don't have performance metrics just yet, although if this thing can't crack four seconds to 60 miles per hour, we'll be pretty surprised.
As is the theme nowadays, the 2015 Challenger SRT features a number of driving modes, governing power output, shift speeds for the 8AT, steering effort, traction control settings and suspension settings. There are three pre-programmed options - Default, Sport and Track - and a Custom mode that allows drivers to mix and match to their heart's content.

2013 Dodge Dart GT offers subtle menace in compact form

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

Dodge has already shared all of the relevant information about its all-new 2013 Dart GT, but it wasn't until now that we've seen the car, live and in person. The slightly meaner front fascia and bigger wheels look great on the Dodge, and the red-on-black perforated seats are sporting in an aftermarket sort of way.
To recap: The Dart GT also gets a bit more power, using a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine to make 184 horsepower and 174 pound-feet of torque. A starting price of $20,995 will get you LED taillights, dual exhaust, an 8.4-inch touchscreen and a 7.0-inch TFT display.
Feel free to re-acquaint yourselves with the full Dodge Dart GT information in the press release below, or have a leisurely browse through our gallery of live images.

Brits recreate iconic Bullitt chase scene

Tue, 13 May 2014

Recreating the famous chase scene from Bullitt has become almost an art form in its own right. We've seen it done in a music video, with scale models and even in commercials. There are few films that are as defined by a single scene as the 1968 classic. Even if you don't know a single beat of the plot, the Highland Green Ford Mustang racing a Dodge Charger through the hilly streets of San Francisco is famous. It's so well known that the Silverstone Classic has created a homage to promote its celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Mustang at this year's event in July.
Filmed around the famous UK circuit, the short film generally gets the key points of the scene right. It even has a green Volkswagen Beetle that keeps reappearing, as in the movie. Unfortunately, its Steve McQueen stand-in looks a little too old for the role. While the video shortens the chase considerably, it's still great to see these '60s behemoths leaning and sliding around the track. Scroll down for a touch of nostalgia thanks to one of the greatest scenes ever in cinema - we've got both the recreation and the original chase seen from the movie waiting for you.
