I have owned the car for about ten years. Car has very high freeway miles and needs a full restoration. The car has numerous small rattles and other problems. I have been using it for my daily driver for three years now. I have bought a newer daily driver and need to clear driveway space. There is no rust on the car, even by the parking brake cable. It has also never been into an accident. The car does run and drive. I have a clear California title in my name. It is currently registered as non-operational and there are no back due DMV fees. The person I bought it from related to me in essence that he and his wife bought the car from a used car lot in the early 1990’s. He also used the car for daily transportation and had to sell it due to divorce. I can help with transportation (drop off at shipping company ect) and test drives are welcome but the car will remain with me until full payment is cleared. Car is located in southern California. Full payment due in thirty days. Car must be gone in 45 days. Again, the car really needs a full restoration. I have about 100 more pictures (including underside) send your email address and will I send them to you. The car is being sold as is with no warranty. The vehicle is also being sold where it is. If you have any specific picture requests just send them to me. I am available most days and weekends. If you need to speak with me please send me a message. Just to make it clear the car has very high miles and needs a total restoration. ENGINE: It currently has a 2.5l turbo common block bottom end. The balance shafts have been removed and the oil feed hole plugged. The engine does not make any knocking noise. This engine was installed about 50,000 miles ago. A new oil pump was installed when the motor was put in. The cylinder head is a later style turbo cylinder head. It has the original VNT/T2 intake manifold. It has a later T2 exhaust manifold and an 89 spec T2 turbo. The turbo has around 50,000 miles on it. There are stainless steel oil/coolant lines for the turbo. The VNT wiring harness is still in the car. It is running a 1990 turbo 2.5l SBEC. The check engine light is on due to the lack of an EGR valve. It has a new larger V6 radiator installed about 20,000 miles ago. There is also a large front mount intercooler on the car. There is 2.5 inch aluminum intercooler plumbing and a Bosch BOV. The car uses a stock SRT-4 air filter. The car body was not cut to fit the intercooler or plumbing. The AC system (when installed) did fit with the intercooler and plumbing. Boost is controlled with a Grainger valve (does overboost on occasions). I do not have the original block or cylinder head. I do have the VNT turbo (might be able to rebuild but consider as a core only), VNT SBEC, and VNT solenoids. There is a 92 turbo roller cam installed. There are polybushings.com front and right side motor mounts installed. It does have a Shelby valve cover, but I believe it is an early two piece design. EXHAUST: I got the car with a 2 1/2 ” cat back system installed. Has a stainless steel Magnaflow muffler. Also has a working Mopar catalytic converter. The original 2 1/2 ” downpipe is still installed. The exhaust system is quiet but does have some rattles. TRANSMISSION: When I bought the car it had a non original early A555 installed. I rebuilt the A555 30,000 miles ago. All bearings, races, snap rings, and oil feeder were replaced. I replaced all of the shift fork pads that I could get (four I think). I also replaced all of the seals during the rebuild. It does have an early four pinion differential. The transmission was rebuilt because the main shaft started to deteriorate (very common problem on 555 transmissions). To solve this problem the main shaft was turned and a sleeve was installed. A drain plug was also installed. It currently has production Spirit R/T axles that make no noise and do not have torn C/V boots. SUSPENSION: I installed Gabriel struts and KYB shocks about 65,000 miles ago. No better shocks or struts were available. It does have polybushings.com front sway bar bushings, control arm bushings, upper and lower rear spring perch pads. The car still has the original Shelby springs. BRAKES/WHEELS: Still has the Shelby four wheel disc brake setup installed. There are Porterfield R4S front brake pads and Porterfield brand front rotors installed. It has OEM replacement rear pads and rotors. A complete (six) set of stainless steel brake lines from FWD performance are installed. I replaced the rear wheel bearing (inner and outer) and races 30,000 miles ago. I also replaced the entire front wheel hubs/bearings at the same time. The car needs a new parking brake rear cable installed. I got the rims from another car that was parted out a few years ago and do not know the brand. It does have the correct size hub rings and Motegi locking lug nuts (I have the key). They do have some road asphalt on them and it doesn’t seem to affect the balance. The tires have about 40% tread left and are not cracked or repaired. Tire size is 225/45/17. EXTERIOR: The paint on the car is really bad. It was repainted about five years ago by a paint shop in Fallbrook. PPG paint was used but I think the red primer caused the problems. I never cared as it didn’t cost very much money and was a lot better looking then before. The clear coat was never able to be buffed out. I would plan on a repaint. Again the paint is really bad. There are road chips and several parking lot dings in doors. The headlights were replaced after the paint job and I have two extra sets. There is a small dent below the left rear tail light assembly. I do not have the replacement decals. I do have the rear CS emblem but did not reinstall it because I didn’t want it to get stolen. I also have the front ground effects/ air dam but it needs to be repaired and painted. It was installed painted with the car and one additional time. The air dam hangs really low and hits on every driveway or any road debris so I just left it off the last time it got damaged. It is the original front air dam. All of the other ground effects are installed and are the original ones. It still has the Shelby grille. The car will also need a new driver’s side door and door hinge assembly. All of the window trim is present but it is old and cracking. The windshield was replaced at the same time as the paint job but not has a crack. Both under hood Shelby tags are present and match the VIN for the car. The rear spoiler is on the care but has a crack. INTERIOR: The Shelby interior is still in the car. The driver’s seat is very worn. The rear seat and passenger seat are in OK condition. It has the Shelby sill tags and the CSX interior tag. I don’t have the Shelby dash plaque. The person I bought the car from related that it wasn’t there when he got the car either. The Shelby steering wheel is still in the car but the leather needs to be recovered. The Shelby horn button is also present. The Shelby boost gauge is also installed and working. There is a CD player installed. I also have the original am/fm radio. The previous owner installed the black carpet and redid the headliner. The headliner needs to be redone. The air conditioning is not installed. I do have a compressor and lines but no condenser. The evaporator also should be replaced. The driver’s side window does not roll down because of the door. All of the gauges are working. |

Old Dodge vans are big in Japan
Fri, Sep 23 2016One of the great things about Japan and its car culture is that it plays host to some of the most unusual and unique vehicle trends in the world. Whether it's neon-clad Lamborghinis or luxury sedans with insane negative camber, the country always seems to have something new up its sleeve. One of the most surprising trends is track-ready, full-size Dodge vans called Dajibans, and the video above presents a great look at these absurd machines. This isn't the first time we've covered these racing Dodge vans, but it's a subculture too awesome not to merit a second look. For one thing, just as American fans of Japanese cars here like to use JDM (Japanese Domestic Market) parts on their cars, the owners of these Dodges like to use American parts. Many of the vans feature Little Tree air fresheners inside and even have Spectre air filters on the intakes. Who would've thought there would be a market for Autozone's bread and butter auto accessories? Plus, these vans get some other impressive mods. Notice that some vans that appear to have stock metal bumpers, but they're actually fiberglass replicas in the original shape and given a chrome-like paint job. The video's host, an Australian drift fanatic named Alexi who lives in Japan and runs website called Noriyaro.com, gets some great onboard footage, too. One of the vans he rides along in is powered by a generally stock 318 Dodge V8, and still has the original automatic transmission and column shifter. Impressively, the driver manages to manually shift it without grabbing the wrong gear, and even rev matches the shifts. Alexi explains that the driver can catch neutral in-between gears three and two, so there's a brief moment where he can blip the throttle. There's even more information in the video, and it's all fantastic fun to watch. If you decide you haven't seen enough of Dajibans, you can also check out our previous post on it, which is more polished and provides some history and context to the trend.

SRT back to Dodge, Dart SRT, new Challenger, Charger and Caravan's death outlined in 5-yr plan
Tue, 06 May 2014The onslaught of news from Fiat Chrysler's layout of five-year plans continued with Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis this morning, including the unexpected announcement that SRT was coming back into the fold.
After just a few years existing as an independent entity within the Fiat Chrysler universe, an unceremonious press release hit in conjunction with today's lineup of announcements, saying "the SRT family of vehicles will be consolidated under the Dodge brand." Group CEO Sergio Marchionne thanked SRT headman Ralph Gilles for his dedication to the high-performance wing, calling out is efforts in expanding the vehicle lineup and including more customized models. He did not reference disappointing SRT Viper sales today, but we sense there's a bit of subtext.
With the SRT reunion at Dodge, it's appropriate that some of the most exciting product announcements for the next five years have to do with upcoming performance products. First out of the gate will be a refresh for that flagging Viper in 2015, which comes as little surprise.
This Dodge Challenger was stolen, used in police chases and recovered all in the week before its SEMA debut
Wed, Nov 6 2019Most of the drama in a SEMA build is in getting the car ready in time for the big show. That was all Quintin Bros Auto and Performance was expecting when they built a supercharged Dodge Challenger Scat Pack with custom carbon fiber body parts, aftermarket wheels and upgraded brakes. But unfortunately, a bigger drama happened in the week leading up to the show. And it was the worst kind. As part owner Pete Quintin told us, the car was shipped out in a small trailer, and while the delivery driver was spending the Monday night a week before the show at a hotel, a thief showed up in a stolen pickup and made off with the trailer and the car. It wasn't an easy task, either, as the delivery driver had parked the trailer in with the truck blocking it. The thief used his own (well, not his own, but you know what we mean) truck to shove the trailer hitch out where he could access it, then hooked it up and took off. Several miles down the road, he parked, opened up the trailer and vanished in the Challenger. The following morning, the delivery driver discovered the theft, and Quintin Bros immediately informed the owner so that a police report could be filed and a search could begin. The trailer was found not too long after, thanks to someone who was following the story on social media. But obviously the car was missing. Folks on social media were also helpful in tracking the car, in addition to the help of the Las Vegas Police Department (LVPD). What followed was a week of chasing the car down. Twice the car was found in parking garages, Quintin said, and both discoveries resulted in police chases. The second chase was the most dramatic, with a police officer stopping after noticing the car. The thief was in it, and he bolted upon seeing the officer. He powered the Challenger right through the nose of the police car, damaging both. The chase culminated on the highway, where Quintin told us 14 cars were in pursuit, and the thief got up to 150 mph. Police ended up calling off the chase because of the danger. But the car was damaged enough that the thief eventually abandoned it at one last garage, where it was picked up on Thursday. Once the car was recovered, things gradually began looking up for the Quintin family. Pete Quintin said that as soon as LVPD found out the Challenger was meant to go to SEMA, the department got the car out of evidence impound as fast as it could so the shop could show off the beat-up car.
