I have decided to let a few project cars go and keep one.  This is a 1972 Dodge Dart Swinger.  Vin calls for a 318 which is what it has in the car, but not sure if it is matching numbers.  Found some numbers behind pump, but not sure if these are supposed to match or the casting numbers. I can do more checking and add to the auction if anyone can give me some direction.  The 318 in the car is missing the intake and would likely need a rebuild.  It does have some money invested in the pulley system (see photos).  I do have another 318, 904 tranny an aluminum radiator that I may let go with the car if final price reaches a certain amount (I will post info towards the bottom). I believe the hood and/or grille was added from an earlier model, but I do not have the history. It has the hood scoops and the 340 emblem. I can add any information someone can give me on these cars over the next week.  I know more about Dodge Chargers. The body looks solid on the car except for the small damage to the fender and a little lower quarter rust.  The underside and trunk look solid. Has a spare and jack in the trunk.   The interior would need some work as per photos ( dash has cracks, front and rear seat has some tears). I do have another top portion of the back seat that will go with the car and can be recovered.  Car has no radiator in it now.

The car has some nice mags and I have several other parts including shocks, brakes, some lines, mufflers, fan blade, new battery tray ect, per photos.   This is a project car that you could do just about anything with at this point. 

Bonus If the final price on the car is over $3,800 , I will include another 318 engine but will have to go off what I was told on the engine.  I was told it ran good so they decided to add a new Melling mild cam and some new lifters. Was also told that it has a new timing chain and oil pump.  As you can see from the photos, It has a newer (not sure if brand new) edelbrock carburetor. The engine itself can use some cleaning ect and was not completely rebuilt.      I would also throw in a used 904 tranny(not rebuilt) and a Be cool aluminum radiator (was told it is worth approx. $500-600.) Radiator looks new, but has some storage wear. The last few pictures show the engine and radiator.   

Buyer to pay $500 deposit with paypal within 24 hours and the balance with cash/cashiers check within 5-7 days. Pick up only or you arrange shipping.  The shipper would need to be able to take the extra engine/tranny if price is met.  I am selling with no reserve and will list for 10 days to give you plenty of time to ask questions.

Dodge Vipers selling for $480k in China

Wed, Apr 29 2015

Want to get your hands on a new Dodge Viper? Be prepared to pay dearly. It starts at nearly $90k here in the US, but that's nothing compared to what you'd have to pay for one if you lived in, say, China. CarsNewsChina.com reports on one Viper available in Beijing for an eye-watering 298 million yuan – equivalent to about $480,000 at today's exchange rates and representing more than a 500-percent markup. Part of that premium comes down to the Chinese tax code that charges a reported 60 percent for anything with an engine displacing over four liters. And the Viper's, we needn't remind you, is more than twice that. It naturally costs some to import a car to China as well, but most of the rest is pure profit. The Beijing dealership reportedly gets the cars from dealers in California, has already sold three and plans to import several more. The dealer can also get you (or wealthy Chinese individuals) a Corvette Stingray for a comparatively cheap 1.73 million yuan (or $280k). Related Video:

Jay Leno gets his denim mitts on Dodge's new Challenger Hellcat

Mon, 04 Aug 2014

The 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat is definitely the performance car of the moment. The fact that in the near future, people will be able to buy a 707-horsepower muscle machine straight from a major automaker for $59,995 and with a factory warranty almost seems absurd. We drove it recently and found the Hellcat to be just as much of a beast as its numbers would suggest. Now, it's a certain comedian's turn behind the wheel in the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage.
This week's guest is Dodge President and CEO Tim Kuniskis, and he's there to drop all sorts of interesting factoids about the Hellcat. For example, its Pirelli P Zero tires retail at around $300 each, he says. That makes its smoky burnouts a rather expensive proposition. Kuniskis, who recently hinted at a mystery Woodward Dream Cruise debut, also talks about the genesis of the 2015 SRT project with a goal to get over some of the standard Challenger's weight and size disadvantages. The fix is a supercharged V8, massive brakes and other goodies to smooth over the platform's more glaring shortcomings.
Leno appears to get a big kick out of the Hellcat. However, he can't seem to stop bringing up his desire to drive one with a six-speed manual. They obviously exist, but Kuniskis has an eight-speed automatic for the retired Tonight Show host to try out. Of course, as with any Hellcat video, there has to be at least one burnout. Despite the expensive tires, it seems like enthusiast's law at this point - and dear ol' Jay wouldn't want to break any rules, would he?

FCA plants skipping summer shutdown to keep up with demand

Thu, May 14 2015

Hopefully, some FCA US factory employees don't have big plans for the usual summer shutdown, because the automaker is keeping several plants running this year. Demand is so high that the company wants to keep models rolling off the assembly lines. Four FCA US assembly plants, all the engine factories, and some locations that build transmissions are staying open throughout the summer, according to the Detroit Free Press. Usually, these sites would see a two-week shutdown for the company to retool and perform repairs. This year, factories are staying open for FCA to support its strong sales. The lines that remaining humming through the summer show an inclination toward the automaker's popular SUV's and crossovers. They include the Jefferson North Assembly Plant in Michigan that builds the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango; Saltillo Van Assembly in Mexico that constructs the Ram ProMaster; Toledo Assembly Complex in Ohio that produces the Cherokee and Wrangler; and Toluca Assembly in Mexico that makes the Dodge Journey and Fiat 500.
