 You are looking at a one of a kind, 2009 Dodge Challenger SRT-8, owned by a serious collector who is downsizing the fleet as part of my "retirement plan".  I bought the car brand new from Blaine Dodge, and ordered it with NO dealer prep. Why?  I wanted to get the car in the original factory condition, including all of the protective stickers, seat and floor covers, etc.  The plan was to order a car that will be worth big money in 20 years, because at that time it will be the only Dodge Challenger that includes ALL factory pieces and parts. You can still see the suction cup marks on the windshield from the factory assembly process, because the windshield was not cleaned by the dealership. This car hasn't been licensed for the street since 2010, so it will need to be registered. I took possession of the car as they unloaded it from the delivery car carrier.  I drove the car home, carefully removed the seat/floor protection, but left the protective covers, stickers, and badges elsewhere in the interior.  You can see some of these in the pics. I carefully removed and saved the window sticker and other documentation that was affixed to the car. I labelled where these items were located as well.  While the 425 hp SRT-8 engine has plenty of power from the factory, I wanted more.  I ordered a Kenne Bell Supercharger Kit for the 6.1 liter engine, and a few weeks later I completed the installation and testing. I'm very meticulous and worked slowly to ensure a perfect installation.  The car has never been raced, nor have I dynoed the engine.  I can tell you that the car is VERY fast, even with the stock exhaust (the supercharger was designed for the stock Dodge Challenger exhaust, and according to KenneBell, it's a very low restriction exhaust so they recommend using the factory system). The supercharger is a liquid cooled Mammoth 2.8LC.  KenneBell's testing on the dyno resulted with a 173 horsepower gain at the rear wheel.  This converts to over 200 horsepower gain at the engine!  (visit the Kenne Bell website to see the test results on the Dodge Challenger SRT-8 6.1 liter, with the 2.8LC Supercharger kit.  Assuming their numbers are close to accurate, this would be in the range of 600-625 horsepower at the engine, and believe me- it feels like it!  After installing the supercharger and carefully rechecking all connections, I tool the car out for a test.   The factory rear tires would lose traction, even at 20 miles per hour!  Kenne Bell achieves full boost at only 2000 rpm, so you are at peak boost as you leave the stop sign.  Because traction was so terrible with all that new power, I then ordered some sticky, DOT approved street tires for the rear.  I also ordered a 2nd set of wheels that match the factory wheels. So the car comes with 2 sets of rear wheels and tires, both mounted and balanced.  Both the factory tires/wheels and the sticky Nitto tires/wheels are included in this auction.  The pics of the car are with the Nitto sticky tires on it. While the tires were a very expensive investment, they work very well,and look like the factory tires. If you are a street cruiser (or like me, a street punk) and you want a car that looks and sounds stock, but will launch with unbelievable power and traction....this mopar is the ticket!  I've driven the car to a few local shows but have never used it for transportation, hence the very low miles.  There are extras that are included in this auction: 
1. a smaller pulley for the Kenne Belle supercharger, and installation tool.  I've never installed this pulley which increases the boost to a point where you need to run racing fuel in the car.. After driving the car you will probably make the same decision I did, "why would I ever want MORE power?" 
2. the factory rear wheels and tires with very few miles on them.  I would estimate less than 100 miles were on them when I replaced them with the DOT approved Nitto tires. 
3. All the factory-applied protective "stuff", that the dealerships remove and toss.  I have it all, and most is still on the car.
4. Kenne Bell instruction and owners manual, and email exchanges with KenneBell during the ordering process
5. ALL of the original factory parts that can be easily reinstalled if you want to return the car to original condition.  I carefully labeled the parts and bolts so you will know where everything goes.
6. The Kenne Bell ECM programmer.  The car's computer was tuned for the supercharger, using the KenneBell provided hand-held tuner.  This device stores the factory tune, so if you want to restore the car to factory specs you merely plug in the tuner and restore.  It also saves the high-performance tune, so you can go back to it in the future (if you change your mind AGAIN).  ha ha
7. Factory Owners manual
8. 2nd keyless entry FOB
9. Window sticker and dealer order forms/receipts/booklets
10. Husky interior floor liners (front and rear)
11. Splash guards (clip on style- no holes drilled)

I can hold and and store the car for up to 3 months, however I require $5000 down payment, and we will write a formal Purchase Agreement.

2019 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Octane Edition fuels your dreams for a limited time

Wed, Jun 5 2019

Few automakers love special-edition models quite as much as FCA. It's particularly prevalent in the Jeep and Ram lineups, but other makes get some love, too. Take a look at the new 2019 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Octane Edition, a special blacked-out model that's set to arrive at dealerships this fall. The car is available to order now, but Dodge says the books will only be open for a limited amount of time. The Octane Edition is available in two appropriately named colors: Pitch Black and White Knuckle. A pair of matte black stripes run down the middle of the car, flanked on both sides by a thin Octane Red stripe. The 20-inch wheels are painted gloss black and have a knurled bead to keep the tire from slipping on the rim. The Brembo brake package is included, with the six-piston front and four-piston rear calipers painted Octane Red to match the stripes. Inside, the Octane Edition gets houndstooth inserts in the SRT sport seats. There are red Hellcat logos, red seat belts and red stitching on the doors, seats, dash center console and steering wheel. The Octane Package adds $1,495 to the $68,740 base MSRP of a 2019 Charger Hellcat. Like all Hellcat models, the Charger comes with a supercharged 6.2-liter Hemi V8 making 707 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels through an eight-speed automatic. Changes for '19 include a new grille with two inlets to feed more air under the hood. The cars also get launch control, line lock, a cooler for the supercharger as well as a torque reserve system that preloads the supercharger for better launches.

Fort Worth Police investigating officer for using pepper spray on bikers

Tue, Mar 15 2016

A Fort Worth Police officer was placed on administrative duties after video surfaced showing him allegedly spraying pepper spray at a group of passing motorcyclists during a traffic stop over the weekend. An officer with the FWPD pulled over one of the group's chase vehicles, a red Dodge Ram, that was escorting riders in case of a crash or mechanical troubles. The video, shot from one of the motorcyclists' helmet cams, caught the FWPD officer exiting his vehicle and, before approaching the truck, spraying something into traffic at the group of riders. WFAA News 8 spoke with the men responsible for the video, Jack Kinney and Chase Stone, via Skype from Longview, TX, on March 13. "It's the last thing I would expect to see," Kinney told the station. "His intent was to hit the bikers for sure, there's no doubt about it," said Stone. "His intent was to send somebody down, if not to cause a major accident with that spray". As the video went viral, receiving more than 200,000 views in 15 hours, people shared videos showing the group of motorcyclists riding in an irresponsible manner through traffic right before the alleged pepper spray incident. Fort Worth Police say they received numerous calls about the pack of riders from motorists on surrounding highways, with complaints ranging from weaving in and out of lanes to popping wheelies through traffic at high speed. News 8 asked Kinney and Stone if it was possible that the officer felt threatened. "If you're worried about safety, why would you pepper spray a large group of bikers like that?" asked Kinney. The Dallas Morning News identified the officer as W. Figueroa. Worth Police released an official statement about the incident late on the afternoon of March 13. They stated that the officer in question, a six-year FWPD veteran, had been relieved of his patrol duties and placed on desk duty pending the investigation. FWPD Corporal Tracey Knight also made a statement indicating that pepper-spraying drivers in oncoming traffic is not a department-sanctioned tactic.
