Bessy is a restored survivor, 1965 Dodge Dart 4 door 270 powered by a rare original 273 V8 powerplant with less than 70K original miles on her. Painstakingly brought back to showroom condition over the course of the past year, there have been so many parts replaced or restored it’s hard to list them all, but see details below.


Most restored Darts from this era are the 2-door muscle car version, and those are easy to find. This car is one of a kind find, turns heads everywhere it goes, and gets multiple offers driving around town. This car is not for those who are shy or dislike attention. A true enthusiast's machine, Bessy will provide it’s owner with many more years of faithful service, in true class and with sleeper car power.


I’m the second owner of this classic head turner. I bought from my colleague after he decided to clear out his garage to make room for new toys. She had sat in the garage since the late 80s, when she was taken out of service where she waited for a little over 30 years under a car cover and stacks of magazines.


I partnered with Precision Auto Center in Bay Ridge, New York to bring this classic barn find back from obscurity. With over $20k dollars is labor, OEM parts and a few safety and performance upgrades, this vehicle drives and handles even better than when it rolled off the showroom floor back in 1966 as a dealer car. All the chrome was in decent condition, so while there are many many upgrades, we kept the restoration to a slight wabi-sabi or survivor condition. Some wear shows on the dashboard, chrome, etc. But as of just this year, she is finished and ready for her new home.


I want to stress that this is a drive ready, turn key car. Nothing drips, leaks or god forbid smokes. She runs off of regular unleaded fuel, handles like a dream on the highway or in the city. Can easily handle anything you throw at her and take it with grace and a yawn. Perfect as a daily driver, show car or weekend getaway toy.


This is not intended as a parts car, or as something to turn into a muscle car. Bessy is a classy lady and deserves to be treated that way.

Armormax loads a bulletproof Dodge Hellcat AWD Police Special

Fri, Sep 7 2018

Earlier, we wrote about the Armormax armored Tesla Model S P100D, which International Armoring Corporation called the fastest armored car in the world. As the company also outfits cars such as Dodge Chargers, it's only logical that the showcase car is a SRT Hellcat — but the interesting thing is that the company can also upgrade the Hellcat to all-wheel drive, as Armormax told Motor Authority. When ordering an armored Charger SRT Hellcat, the AWD implementation is just a matter of ticking the corresponding box. The Armormax Charger SRT Hellcat seen here is also outfitted with police patrol car gear, complete with a push bar, run-flat tires, ballistic bulletproof glass and a mean matte black wrap. Even if the 6.2-liter, supercharged Hellcat powertrain probably has no problem hauling an armored bodyshell around, it's likely that the company has used the same synthetic fiber laminate on the Charger as on the Tesla. The bulletproof Tesla's weight gain was a negligible 11 percent, and while the Charger is a lighter car to begin with, avoiding using regular-issue ballistic steel seems to be the way to go if you want to keep the curb weight in check. The Hellcat's battery, radiator, fuel tank and ECU also get their share of protective covering, so that the vehicle is harder to disable. Paneling is available in ballistic protection levels ranging from B4 (can withstand a .30-caliber lead-core softpoint bullet) to B7 (can withstand a 9mm full-copper jacket). And while pricing isn't announced, it is likely to depend on how much protection is applied on the Hellcat and whether all four wheels are powered. A stock one is priced at $65,345. Related Video:

All-wheel-drive Dodge Challenger GT confirmed by EPA website

Thu, Oct 27 2016

The US Environmental Protection Agency accidentally confirmed the upcoming Dodge Challenger GT by posting fuel economy figures for the all-wheel-drive variant of the muscle car. According to FuelEconomy.gov, the Challenger GT, which will come with the 3.6-liter V6 when it's released, is rated to get 18 miles per gallon in the city and 27 miles per gallon on the highway, giving the vehicle a combined rating of 21 miles per gallon. Those figures are slightly lower than the rear-wheel-drive Challenger with the same engine, which gets 19 miles per gallon in the city and 30 miles per gallon on the highway. While previous reports indicated that Dodge is planning to release the all-wheel-drive Challenger GT sometime in 2017, the automaker hasn't confirmed the vehicle. (Mopar's all-wheel-drive concept from last year's SEMA Show is pictured above.) With the EPA putting out the car's official fuel economy figures, the all-wheel-drive muscle car is definitely coming, and should be here before the entire Challenger lineup gets its expected redesign in 2018. And yes, we're still hopeful that the so-called Challenger ADR we saw in spy photos means we'll see all wheel drive and Hellcat power. Because Hellcat everything. Related Video:
