1970 Dodge Challenger on 2040-cars
Gilson, Illinois, United States
Just email me at: kriskkkualii@irishhome.net .
This is a real 1970 Dodge Challenger RT 440 v-code 6 pac car. It is NOT a shaker hood purple car. I added a photo
of what the car looked like in the 80's So you understand the history of the car. The owner at that time bought it
off of a board at the local car parts store at that time it had a 340 6 pac and retained its factory color of F3
light green metallic. Still had a 4spd and dana with 4;10 gears. After purchasing the car he had all the custom
work done and did not care it was a V-code car and does not know what happened to the fender tag and he does not
remember the guys name he bought it from. The car and history is well known in the St Louis mo mopar area. But that
is as far back as the history of the car is known. So what is known is it was F3 green 440 6 pac 4spd dana super
trac pac car.
In the late 80's the car had a electrical fire and burnt the interior up and the insurance company totaled the
car out. He bought it back and striped the car and it went to the junk yard and sat there for a few years until
somebody peeled back the white fur on the dash and saw the vin number and saved it from the junk yard and it was
passed around to 4 or 5 owners until I got it and restored it to the condition it is now.
I decided to restore it how I would of ordered it new. I got it as a shell and it came out of body shop that did
not finish it they replaced a frame rail due to setting on the ground and the roof skin was warped from the fire.
They also had partial quarters on it when I got it. I cut them off and put Good Mark full quarters on and finished
all the body work and did full rotisserie restoration and painted it with the help from the owner of Claydoe Custom
paint. That was 9 years ago. The interior is Legendary. The gauges are original with the clock and tac rebuilt and
work perfect. The motor is bored 30 over with sealed power forged pistons 6 pac rods and balancer and the hemi oil
pan with high volume pump oil psi is between 60 and 80 psi. The heads have stainless steel valves and hardened
seats and are set up to run super unleaded pump gas. The intake is the cast iron one with original Holley carbs
rebuilt by Pro-Max out of Indy. Motor runs great I have it set up with a Chrysler 4spd overdrive transmission with
the 4;10 gears it turns 2600 rpms at 70 So the car is very driveable I have been on 3 power tours with the car with
no problems would not be afraid to take it again tomorrow. It is a fun car to drive and take to shows and cruises.
The car is not a 100 point show car the paint has a few blemishes and nics and scratches and there is a small
bubble on the bottom of the driver door. As you can tell by the pictures it is beautiful car and shows very well
you can take it to any local show and take home a trophy. The under carrage is still shinny and looks great Last
year on the Hot Rod Power tour coming out of Madison. Wi.

Marchionne may stay with FCA until 2020
Mon, Aug 31 2015We might get to see Sergio Marchionne and his vast array of sweaters in the auto industry for even longer than expected. The FCA CEO suggested last year that he would retire from the automaker when its current five-year plan was complete in 2018. Now, he has tentatively extended that point out to at least 2020. "I can do this for another five years if you push me, right? Beyond that, I ain't gonna do it, and I don't want to," he said to Automotive News. That would give Marchionne a 16-year career at the top from joining Fiat in 2004 to possibly leaving FCA in 2020. Although, take the CEO's statement with a grain of salt because he has made multiple statements about the timing for his retirement. In 2012, Marchionne said he would only remain in charge until 2015, which is, well, now. Those five years might also go quite quickly because Marchionne is a busy guy with the Ferrari IPO, the attempted merger with General Motors, implementing FCA's five-year plan, and many other projects. He's already considering the next CEO, though. "My purpose in life is to find the Kuniskises of the world, the Manleys, the Biglands, the Palmers," Marchionne said to Automotive News, referencing the heads at Dodge, Jeep, FCA North America, and the company's chief financial officer, respectively. "I told them, 'One of you is going to do what I do one day. I don't know who that is, but one of you is going to do it.'"

Woodward Dream Cruise Photo Gallery | Classics and American muscle
Sun, Aug 21 2022The 2022 running of the Woodward Dream Cruise just went down, and we were there from morning to evening drinking in the sweet sights and pre-emissions exhaust fumes. Yes, it’s a little smelly on Woodward Ave. this time of year. Just like always, the Dream Cruise invites all comers to cruise their machines on Woodward from Ferndale, MI to Pontiac, MI. Everybody is invited, but the original intent of the Dream Cruise was to highlight classic American muscle cars. YouÂ’ll see plenty of those in our mega gallery above, but weÂ’ve sprinkled it with a bunch of other vehicle types, such as modern muscle and other intriguing American vehicles. Similar to years past, though, sometimes the classics arenÂ’t the most entertaining thing to look at on Woodward. ThatÂ’s why weÂ’ll have other mega galleries coming soon, highlighting the weird cars and (great) dogs of the Cruise, all the imports and exotics you can imagine and a special one for all the trucks of Woodward — perhaps even more so than in years past, the truck population on Dream Cruise day was quite high. Click through above to see all the classics you wouldÂ’ve seen had you been roadside on the day of the cruise. And if you missed this yearÂ’s event, make sure you check out what happens next year. You wonÂ’t be alone, as itÂ’s estimated that over 1 million people attend the Dream Cruise to either watch from the side of the road or to sit in the most glorious traffic jam in the world.

2014 Dodge Durango teaser reveals new 'racetrack' taillights
Fri, 22 Mar 2013Not wanting to let Jeep get all of the SUV attention for the 2014 model year, Dodge is unveiling a refreshed version of its Durango at the New York Auto Show. Teased in this image, all we can really tell about the 2014 Dodge Durango is that it will be getting Dodge's "racetrack" taillights similar to the Charger and Dart.
The chrome or painted strip currently between the Durango's Zorro taillamps have been removed to allow for a full-width LED array with "DODGE" lettering displayed more prominently above the license plate pocket. Parent company Chrysler also promises that the updated Durango will add "several new class-exclusive features," but stops short of saying what those are. Earlier reports suggest that among the changes, buyers will be able to look forward to an eight-speed automatic gearbox, which ought to improve the three-row SUV's fuel efficiency.
