1969 DODGE CHARGER R/T 440 MAGNUM. NUMBERS MATCHING CAR. ORIGINAL 440 MAGNUM ENGINE AND 727 TORQUEFLITE 3 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION CAR. ORIGINAL FACTORY GEARING STILL IN CAR. THE CAR IS NOT RUNNING AND WILL NEED TOWED OR TRAILERED.

I ORIGINALLY PURCHASED THIS CAR IN 1985 AT TIME OF MY GRADUATION FROM HIGH SCHOOL. HAS BEEN WITH ME EVER SINCE BUT I HAVE LET IT GO AND I GUESS I NEED TO MOVE ON AND LET SOMEONE ELSE THAT HAS THE TIME AND MONEY TO GIVE IT A FIRST CLASS RESTORATION LIKE I WISHED I COULD DO.
THE CAR WAS LAST LICENCED IN 1997. ABOUT SEVEN YEARS AGO ITS 40 YEAR OLD WIRING GAVE OUT WITH A MELTDOWN AT THE STARTER RELAY (MORE ON THAT LATER) AND HAS BEEN SITTING OUTSIDE AND INSIDE EVER SINCE. I TOLD MYSELF I WILL GET AROUND TO ITS REPLACEMENT...BUT HAVE DECIDED TO PASS THE CAR ALONG. SO STARTING OFF I WILL LIST THE GOOD ...BAD..THE UGLY.. WITH AS MUCH DETAIL AS I CAN.

IF YOU WOULD LIKE MORE PHOTOS OR INFO I HAVE MISSED PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME AT MY E-MAIL THRU HERE AT E-BAY OR MY E-MAIL ... WOLFSBANEII@YAHOO.COM. PLEASE INCLUDE YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS AS E-BAY SOMETIMES HAS A PROBLEM WITH ME TRYING TO SEND MORE PICS THRU A RESPONDING E-MAIL. ON A PURCHASING NOTE, MY LAST SALE I ACCEPTED PAY-PAL AS A PAYMENT SOURCE, I NO LONGER WILL ACCEPT PAY PAL DUE TO LOSING CLOSE TO 200.00 FOR THEIR PROCESSING FEE. SORRY FOR THE INCONVIENCE.

ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION DRIVE TRAIN:
AS STATED THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 440 MAGNUM ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION AND FACTORY GEARING. IT HAS BEEN SITTING A WHILE SO IT WILL NEED A GOOD REFRESHING OF THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION. I NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINE ,TRANSMISSION , OR DIFFERENTAL WHILE THE CAR WAS IN RUNNING ORDER. THE GEARING I BELIEVE ARE 3:23 RATIO AND IS A POSI /SURE GRIP UNIT. IT IS AN A/C CAR BUT WAS NEVER HOOKED UP SINCE THE DAY I HAD IT. THE A/C PUMP IS STILL ON THE CAR BUT THE LINES , DRIER, RECIEVER, EXPANSION VALVE, AND CONDENSOR ARE NOT WITH THE CAR. CAR HAS NOT SEEN HEADERS WITH THE FACTORY UP SWUNG MANIFOLDS STILL ON CAR. DUAL EXHAUST SYSTEM STILL PRETTY MUCH INTACT FROM WHAT I CAN SEE. CARB IS FACTORY ORIGINAL FOUR BARREL SET UP.
THE BAD NEWS AS THIS DEALS WITH THE ENGINE IS THE WIRING HARNESS. THE WIRING FINALLY GAVE OUT AS I WAS ATTEMPTING TO START IT ONE DAY. SMOKE ROLLED FROM UNDER THE HOOD AND THE WIRING AT THE STARTER RELAY BURT AND SEVERAL WIRES WERE MELTED ALONG THE WAY TO THE BULKHEAD CONNECTOR ON THE FIREWALL. I AM NOT SURE HOW FAR THE MELTDOWN GOT AS FAR AS INSIDE THE CAR. I DON'T RECALL ANY FIRES UNDER THE DASH SO IT COULD HAVE STOPPED THERE. BUT IF YOU ARE GOING TO RESTORE THIS... THERE ARE NEW AND MORE RELIABLE REPLACEMENT HARNESSES OUT THERE NOW.

TIRES AND BRAKES :
THE TIRES ARE BRAND NEW... 215/70R/15 MOUNTED ON 15 INCH STEEL RIMS. THE TIRES ALONE ARE WORTH 300.00. THE ORIGINAL RIMS ARE LONG GONE AS I BOUGHT IT WITH AFTERMARKET RIMS INSTALLED AND SOLD THOSE WITH A PREVIOUS CAR. JUST TO SHOW HOW CLOSE TO AN ORIGINAL DODGE CHARGER THIS IS... THE DRIVERS SIDE STILL HAS THE LEFT HANDED THREADED LUG NUTS.
THE BRAKES ARE ORIGINAL 11 INCH DRUMS ALL THE WAY AROUND. IT DOES HAVE POWER BRAKES BUT THE ORIGINAL OWNER SAID THE BOOSTER WASN'T ORIGINAL, BUT IT WORKED FOR ME SO I NEVER REPLACED.

SUSPENSION AND STEERING:
FACTORY FRONT AND REAR SWAY BARS.. LEAST I THINK THE REAR IS ORIGINAL..LOOKS LIKE IT. LEAF SPRINGS IN REAR... TORSION BARS IN FRONT. I NEVER REPLACED THE BALL JOINTS OR TIE ROD ENDS WHILE I HAD THE CAR. IT DROVE STRAIGHT AND DIDNT WANDER , NO NOTICEABLE STRANGE TIRE WEAR SO I RAN IT AS IS. THE SUSPENSION SET UP IS VERY VERY STIFF... THERE IS NO BOUNCE TO THIS CAR AT ALL... VERY TIGHT. POWER STEERING WITH A VERY QUICK AND ULTRA RESPONSIVE WHEEL. I COULD SPIN THE WHEEL WITH JUST MY FINGERTIPS WHEN POWERED UP.

UNDER BODY:
THIS IS A UNI-BODY CAR. THE FRAME RAILS ARE SOLID AS WELL AS AROUND THE TORSION BARS. I UNDERCOATED ALL THE AREAS I COULD REACH WHEN I FIXED IT UP THOSE MANY YEARS AGO. THE FLOOR PANS ARE IN DECENT SHAPE AS FAR AS I KNOW. BUT... THE DRIVERS SIDE I HAD TO PATCHWORK UP AND SHOULD PROBABLY BE REPLACED. THE REAR DRIVERS I DIDNT TOUCH.AT THE TIME I WAS FIXING THE CAR, SHEET METAL WASNT AS AVAILABLE AS IT IS TODAY SO IT WAS TOUGH GETTING METAL REPLACEMENTS. SAME GOES WITH THE TRUNK. THE TRUNK WAS REPLACED WITH A PAN OUT OF A 1968 CHARGER. THERE ARE A FEW SMALL RUST THRUS IN THE TRUNK BUT CAN BE PATCHED OR REPLACED ...UP TO YOU. THE PASSENGERS SIDE FLOOR PANS, FRONT AND REAR I DIDNT REPLACE OR PATCH UP..WERE STILL IN GOOD SHAPE WHEN I WAS GOING THRU THE CAR.

EXTERIOR:
I NEVER HAD ACCESS TO A SANDBLASTER WHEN SO IT DOES HAVE A FEW ISSUES. PAINT IS FACTORY COLOR...NOT FACTORY PAINT. AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICS...THERE ARE BUBBLES AND RUST IN AREAS ABOUT THE CAR. I HAVE MORE DETAILED PICTURES OF THE DAMAGED AREAS IF YOU WOULD LIKE A CLOSER VIEW.
THE DARK GREEN VINYL TOP HAS BUBBLED IN A LOT OF SPOTS SO UNDERLYING DAMAGE TO THE METAL IS EVIDENT. THESE CARS ARE KNOWN FOR RUST IN THE TUNNEL WINDOW CHANNEL. THIS WAS NO DIFFERENT WHEN I GOT THE CAR, I REPAIRED IT BUT TIME HAS BUBBLED THE REPAIRS.
THE GLASS IN THE CAR IS ALL ORIGINAL AND FACTORY TINT. ONLY DAMAGE IS A SMALL BULLS EYE IN THE FRONT WIND SHIELD THAT WAS REPAIRED MANY YEARS AGO. WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR THE OWNER TOLD ME IT LEAKED AND NEEDED REPAIRED BUT I NEVER NOTICED ANY DAMPNESS OR WET CARPETING AT THE TIME. THE CAR WAS NOT EQUIPPED WITH POWER WINDOWS.
FRONT GRILL IS CRACK FREE AND LAST KNOWN THE HEADLIGHT DOORS STILL WORKED. HEADLIGHT DOORS ARE UNDAMAGED AS WELL.
FRONT AND REAR BUMPERS WILL NEED RE CHROMED. THERES NO RUST OR DENTS, BUT AS TYPICAL WITH THE BODY SHAPE, THE HOOD DRIPS ON THE BUMPER AND AFTER A FEW YEARS THE CHROME IS WORN AWAY IN TWO SPOTS. A COMMON PROBLEM ON THESE BODY CARS.
THE CAR IS A STRIPE DELETE CAR WITH JUST THE R/T EMBLEMS ON ITS QUARTER PANELS AND HEADLIGHT DOOR.

INTERIOR:
CLASSIC CHRYSLER DARK GREEN INTERIOR. BUCKET SEATS. VINYL WITH BENCH REAR. REAR SEATS ARE LIKE NEW, PASSENGERS SEAT ALSO LIKE NEW. THE DRIVERS SEAT HAS A FEW RIPS IN THE UPRIGHT BUCKET. THE DASH IS LIKE NEW WITH NO CRACKS OR SPLITS. STEERING WHEEL IS CRACKED IN THE RIM BUT NOT MISSING PIECES. STANDARD DASH SETUP WITH BLACK TRIM AND ROCKER SWITCHES. TO MY KNOWLEDGE ALL THE GAUGES EXCEPT THE CLOCK WERE IN WORKING ORDER. FACTORY RADIO WAS REPLACED WITH A CASSETTE UNIT... YES WAS STATE OF THE ART AT THE TIME. CARPET WILL NEED REPLACED. THE HEADLINER HAS A FEW SMALL HOLES IN IT BUT OTHER WISE IN GREAT SHAPE.

TO SUM IT UP. THIS CAR IS IN NEED OF A GOOD RESTORATION. IT HAS GREAT POTENTIAL IN THE RIGHT HANDS AND WILL MAKE ONE HELL OF A HEAD TURNER WHEN FINISHED. THE BEST THING GOING FOR THIS IS IT IS A NUMBERS MATCHING, ORIGINAL R/T CAR THERES NOT MANY LEFT... AND THEY DONT MAKE THEM ANYMORE. (UNLESS YOU COUNT THE FOUR DOORS..BUT ANYWAY...) I HAVE INCLUDED THE FENDER TAG OPTION AS I HAVE GOTTEN A LOT OF REQUEST FOR ITS NUMBERS AND OPTION. THE PLATE ISNT IN THE BEST OF SHAPE SO I WILL DO MY BEST TO GET THE CODES RIGHT AS FOLLOWS:

VIF V88 26 END
G33 H51 J23? W21 M31 R11
A01 A04 B51 C16 C55 G11
F3 C89? F8 212 246527
386 D32 XS29 L9B 291879

PAYMENT CAN BE MADE BY CASH, CHECK OR MONEY ORDER (CAR DOESNT LEAVE THE PROPERTY UNTIL CHECK OR MONEY ORDER CLEARS..USUALLY 10 DAYS) BANK WIRE TRANSFER. I DO NOT ACCEPT PAY PAL ANYMORE DUE TO ISSUE STATED ABOVE. I AM NOT INTERESTED IN TRADES SO PLEASE DONT OFFER. WHAT I AM ASKING FOR IS WHAT THE STARTING BID IS, PLEASE DONT ASK ME "HOW MUCH WILL I TAKE FOR IT"...ITS ALREADY LISTED. ALL SALES ARE FINAL. I HAVE DISCLOSED ALL THE ISSUES I KNOW OF AND HAVE MORE PICTURES OF THE CAR AVAILABLE TO YOU. IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION PLEASE CONTACT ME. PICK UP OF THE CAR IS THE BUYERS RESPONSABILITY .

THANK YOU AND HAPPY BIDDING, BEST OF LUCK.

Dodge Demon exorcised by Rhys Millen in new video

Tue, Aug 15 2017

When you call your car something like the Demon, it provides plenty of opportunity to play around with the name ͗ especially when said car has 840 horsepower directed to the rear wheels. Pennzoil is doing just that in the above video, called "Exorcising the Demon." In it, Rhys Millen tears up the streets of Pittsburgh at night in a black and yellow Dodge Challenger SRT Demon, smoking tires, popping wheelies and breaking the rear end loose in massive drifts around corners. He even pulls a pretty hairy 360. It's certainly a lot different sort of driving from the straight-line drag-strip experience for which the Dodge Demon was purpose-built. At the end of the video, Millen parks the car below a gargoyle, whose eyes briefly glow a menacing red. Millen sends a text message saying "The Demon is back in its place." The response: "Das good. How are you in the Ring?" (Hmm.) Then the clip ends, and we're told the story will be continued. If you don't want to wait for more cinematic Demon action, you can check out Pennzoil's behind-the-scenes video, called, "Unleashing Unprecedented Power." In it, we get to see more angles of the stunt driving, hear about the production, and, of course, get a plug for Pennzoil: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Pennzoil also offers a few other Dodge Demon videos, one about the car's development, one about its performance, and a third focused on Pennzoil Synthetics. Earlier this year, Pennzoil also did a similar video series to bid farewell to the Dodge Viper.

Man crashes car through store window, says he needs a beer

Wed, May 17 2017

Police body cameras captured a chaotic scene at a Cleveland-area convenience store after a man drove his car through the front of the store and barricaded himself in a walk-in cooler. According to WJW, the Convenience Mart in Rocky River, Ohio, had just closed in the early hours of May 7 when a black Dodge Challenger barreled through the security bollards at around 40 miles per hour and crashed through the front window. Police arrived to find the car parked in the store with its hazards on, the store clerk trapped beneath debris, and no driver. The clerk told officers the driver got out, told the clerk that he needed a beer, then wandered into the walk-in cooler. Officers found the driver barricaded inside the cooler. A tense standoff ensued with the agitated, confused man, who dared the cops to shoot him. Police learned he was suffering PTSD-related issues from his military service and job with the Federal Protective Service. "The conversation he was having with the police was deranged, consistent with somebody who was going through a mental crisis," RRPD Chief Kelly Stillman told WJW. Eventually, an officer was able to use a taser on the man, who put up a fight but was eventually subdued. He faces charges that include DUI and reckless driving. Thankfully, the store clerk escaped relatively unscathed. His life was saved by a deli case that absorbed the impact of the car and sheltered him from falling debris. "Had the car been over a couple more feet, he was hurt, it could have been serious bodily injury, even possibly death. I mean that's a four, five thousand pound automobile coming at 30, 40 miles an hour. He was lucky, very lucky," said Chief Stillman.

NC dealer creates the convertible Challenger that Dodge won't build

Mon, Aug 5 2019

Dodge still hasn't turned the Challenger into a convertible, and the odds of seeing a factory-built drop-top muscle car appear in showrooms are decreasing annually. Tired of waiting, a dealership in North Carolina teamed up with a Florida-based body shop to create a topless alternative to the Ford Mustang and the Chevrolet Camaro. It's the real thing, and it's for sale. Keffer Dodge, Chrysler, Ram and Jeep shipped three 2019 Challengers to a shop named Convertible Builders, according to Motor Authority. After losing their lid, they gained a cloth soft top that opens and closes at the push of a button. There's no word on what effect the conversion has on handling, or what Convertible Builders did to offset the loss of structural rigidity. The build didn't include mechanical modifications. Two of the convertibles are R/T Scat Pack models equipped with a 6.4-liter Hemi V8 engine that serves 485 horsepower and 475 pound-feet of torque. It's not a supercharged Hellcat V8, but it's potent enough to spin the rear wheels in third gear. The third, R/T-based model features a 375-horsepower, 5.7-liter V8. While our dream build would use a six-speed manual transmission, all three come with an eight-speed automatic that sends the engine's power to the rear wheels. Keffer's website lists the gray, white, and red cars at $64,000, $60,000, and $56,300, respectively. The regular R/T Scat Pack Widebody model starts at $46,245, and the eight-speed automatic adds another $1,595, so the convertible conversion adds about $16,000. It's your only option, unless you're brave enough to chop the top yourself, or patient enough to wait until the early 2020s. Dodge has already started developing the next-generation Challenger, so the current car is unlikely to spawn a convertible before it retires. Its replacement due out in 2021 or 2022 will allegedly ride on a wider, longer evolution of the Giorgio platform found under the Alfa Romeo Giulia, among other models, and unverified rumors claim it's being designed with a topless variant in mind from the get-go. It might resurrect the Barracuda nameplate originally assigned to Plymouth when it makes its debut. Auto News Dodge Convertible Performance
