Good deal on a rare factory 4-speed A-Body.

1968 Dodge Dart 2-door Hardtop equipped with performance built Mopar 360cid V8 (less than 500 miles!), desirable 4-spd transmission, performance clutch, power steering, front disc brakes and 3:31 posi rear-end. Seriously, when was the last time you saw a Mopar A-Body 4-speed?

Additional desirable features include brand new radial tires, factory wheel covers, dual exhaust, rear sway bar and recent front suspension parts. Desirable black bucket seat interior with some nice, recent upgrades, including; new factory seat foam inserts, new factory correct seat covers, dash pad and replacement carpet. Uncut dash, with proper unaltered openings for twin thumb dial OE radio.

Car has desirable double-bulge factory GT hood, cool amber colored front grille parking lights and one-year-only round side marker lights (all functional). Body is in old primer and is rough, showing both age and wear with some OE replacement panels included. Glass is complete and good.

Although the car drives great and has a nice feel to it, the real value in this vehicle is in the drivetrain and long list of other desirable features (motor, trans, posi, power steering, disc brake set-up, new interior components, etc). Motor has very few miles since complete rebuild with many performance parts including MSD ignition, performance distributor, intake manifold, carb, etc. Starts easy, runs great and sounds fantastic. Nice medium grind cam that has just enough loap for that serious muscle car attitude. Loads of fun to drive (especially with the 4-speed), handles like a go-kart, and is a car, even in its "joe-dirt work-in-progress condition," that gets positive attention every time out of the garage!!!

Lots of time, effort and resource already invested -- drive, rod or restore this one -- or great candidate for race car or Mopar donor (car could be parted out for more than sell price), or simply drive and enjoy while making further upgrades. Clean and clear title and current tabs.

Serious, capable buyers only please. Price is fair and firm. Thanks. 360-510-1386 or 503-830-7385.

121k Dodge Darts being investigated over braking problem

Mon, Jun 22 2015

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating the Dodge Dart due to reports of braking problems. Some 121,000 cars are possibly affected, all from the 2013 model year. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA received 18 complaints about the brake pedal becoming hard to depress on these cars, increasing stopping distance. Drivers reported hearing a "pop noise or an air hissing noise when applying the brake pedal, followed by a hard pedal feel and reduced brake effectiveness," NHTSA told the News. In a particularly terrifying incident, one driver says the Dart's braking system shut down while driving at 50 miles per hour. "I feared for my life. It is one of the scariest things I have ever dealt with," the complaint said, according to The Detroit News. A Fiat-Chrysler spokesperson said the automaker is "fully cooperating" with this investigation.

Dodge Viper ACR reportedly green lit [w/video]

Fri, Feb 6 2015

The Dodge Viper might be getting a little more venomous in the near future thanks to a return of the performance-honed ACR trim. According to an anonymous source leaking the info to Allpar, the version would go into production in July as a 2016 model year vehicle. FCA US showed a concept for a future ACR (pictured above) at the 2014 SEMA Show that sported carbon fiber parts for the front splitter and dive planes, plus a picnic-table-sized rear wing. The body also received ducts at the rear to shoot cool air to the differential. A set of 15.4-inch carbon-ceramic brake rotors also brought things to a halt in a hurry. The company promised all the aero pieces were sculpted in the wind tunnel to give the coupe even more downforce. To shed weight, engineers chucked the radio, speakers, carpet and sound deadening out of the interior, and they replaced many bits with even more carbon fiber. All of the tweaks are necessary because the ACR moniker carries serious cachet for the Viper at the track, especially at the Nurburgring. One reportedly did a 7:22 lap around the 'Ring in 2008, and another improved that further to 7:12 in 2011. Autoblog reached out to FCA US for comment about the possibility for the hotter Viper, but the company wasn't willing to comment about any possible, future projects. Related Video:

Dodge Hellcat Widebody delivers Christmas tree at 174 mph

Thu, Dec 21 2017

The holidays are here, and so last-minute shoppers are going to be in a serious rush to get all the items they need, especially Christmas shoppers that haven't even put up a tree yet. Those seriously late folks may want to invest in a Challenger Hellcat because apparently they can go an incredible 174 mph with a Christmas tree strapped to the roof. This was discovered by the folks at Hennessey. They got a Hellcat Widebody from Dodge for the little experiment, along with a suction cup mount roof rack from SeaSucker and a real Christmas tree from Lowe's. Then it was off to the Continental Tire test track in Texas to see how fast it could go, which, as mentioned was 174 mph. As you'll see in the video, it takes quite a bit of road to move up from 170 to 174 mph. It's impressive that the tree and roof rack don't seem to budge. And it's all capped off with a huge smokey burnout to the sound of V8 rumble and supercharger whine. It's a fun way to get into the holiday spirit. And we'll look forward to next year when maybe Dodge will give Hennessey a Demon to try out. Related Video:
