 You are bidding on an unrestored 1970 Dodge Charger 500.  This car was born with a 383 (big block car) and currently has a 440 in it.  Obviously this is not a number matching car.  Has a 727 automatic with a console shifter.  The car is very complete.  Comes with the original bucket seats and rear bench seat (not in the car but pictured) that would need re-upholstered.  There are different aftermarket bucket seats in it now.  The car comes with an extra original Chrome bumper in nice condition (these go for over $1k on Ebay alone and were a 1 year run as the 69 and 71 had very different bumpers/grills). 

The 440 that is in the car now runs pretty strong and sounds exactly like you would expect it.  It does have a slight exhaust leak in one of the headers.  It has an Edelbrock aftermarket intake manifold and a recently replaced Holly Carb (no details on either, they were on the car when I purchased 3 years ago).  I drove it about 30 minutes to where it sits now last fall with no problems other than non-stop "thumbs up" from all the guys I passed on the highway.  The tires have never had any air added in the last 3 years and sits on the Magnum 500 wheels.  I am not certain of the mileage on the car as the odometer stopped before I bought it.

the body seems pretty straight and solid.  Some pictures of the frame rails included.  Its about as solid of an unrestored project Mopar you will find.  There are not many unrestored that are this complete (of course, not original motor in this case) and in this good a starting condition.  If you bring a battery, you can drive it home (within reasonable distance for safety of course since the breaks would need a good once over).  Its been in a garage ever since I have owned it (again 3 years).  The guy I bought it from in Indiana had it in a storage unit the whole time he owned it.  There is not much of any surface rust.

For the winning bidder I will also throw in the following restoration book written specifically for the 1970 Charger: 

Project Charger: The Step-By-Step Restoration of a Popular Vintage Car

 
by Larry Lyles

The reserve is set low for this rare piece of Mopar history.  I will require a $500 deposit at the close of bidding.  You will be responsible for pick-up or arranging for shipping.  The car has a clear title in my name in my possession.  Nothing funny about the title or ownership here.  No bill or sale or any of that non-sense needed. 


If the car does not sell here, I will likely take it to Mopar Nats in Columbus and sell it.  Get it now before the Mopar nation gets their hands on it.

eGarage interviews a couple with 65 Vipers

Thu, 12 Sep 2013

Owning multiple vehicles can be a hassle worth enjoying if you're willing to spend the time and the money required to acquire and maintain them. But when it's hard to make ends meet while underused valuable hunks of metal, plastic and rubber sit happily taking up garage space, journeys into the depths of other people's well-developed automotive obsessions will either bring you and your cars closer together, or compel you to sell them off before you become one of those fanatics. A recent video by eGarage is one of those journeys, and it's not for the faint of heart: D'Ann and Wayne Rauh own 65 Dodge and SRT Vipers in a collection of automobiles that exceeds 100.
We're not sure if the couple has developed heat-resistant calves from stepping over Viper door sills made burning-hot by side-exhaust pipes, but we wouldn't be surprised if they did. We did learn that their obsession with the no-holds-barred sports car started in 2006 with a trip to a dealership to buy just one Viper, which goes to show how innocently car obsessions can start. But the Rauhs seem to be doing just fine - perhaps better - 64 more Vipers later.
Watch the video below for the full story and to see what eGarage claims is the world's largest Viper collection.

Vin Diesel's Fast 8 Charger has fake jet power, sounds mean

Mon, Aug 1 2016

With filming for Fast 8, the eighth installment in the Fast and Furious franchise, well underway, we've gotten some sneak peeks into the actors' vehicles. Dominic Toretto, played by Vin Diesel, will once again get behind the wheel of a Dodge Charger. The Charger, which was revealed as Toretto's ride in Iceland, has been heavily modified and even features a jet turbine. Sadly, the turbine is purely cosmetic, but the sound from the car's V8 is glorious. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. The videos, which were posted to Jadatoys Instagram account, capture the Charger's incredible sound when it starts, revs, and idles. While the V8 sounds amazing, there's no word on what engine lurks behind the Charger's hood. The previous vehicles from Furious 7 featured 500-horsepower V8 crate engines from General Motors, which may make another appearance in the upcoming film. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Despite being a prop, Fast 8's film crew will surely find a way to bring the turbine to life in the movie that, according to Diesel, will come out on April 14, 2017. If the movie is anything like previous ones, it should have over-the-top action and an incredible selection of cars. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.
