1967 Dodge Dart Pro-touring Restomod on 2040-cars
Eau Claire, Wisconsin, United States
|
Up for sale is one of the finest ’67 Dodge Darts you will ever find. This vehicle has well over 2,000 hours invested in the mockup, body & paint, wiring, assembly and road testing. As you can see from the photos, the details reflect the time spent in making the car a well-balanced and well engineered road machine. This vehicle was built in order to show the craftsmanship and attention to detail available at Fast Freddie’s Rod Shop in Eau Claire, WI as well as to showcase some of the latest components available in the automotive aftermarket. This has been the display vehicle at Fast Freddie’s for the last year two years and now it’s time for someone else to enjoy and appreciate this incredible machine. This car was built to be driven from coast to coast in modern comfort with A/C, power rack & pinion steering, comfortable bucket seats, 4-wheel disc brakes, a hush-matted interior and a killer audio system. Although the engine dyno’d at 555 HP and 650 lb./ft. of torque, it still runs on 92 octane pump gas and backed by a Keisler-built Tremec TKO 600 5-speed, it will cruise 65 mph @ 2,000 RPM, making it the ultimate Power Tour car. Pictures do not do the body & paint finish justice, but you can get an idea of how flat the panels are and how well everything lines up. This is a testament to all the time spent mocking up the panels, drivetrain, and steering & suspension to ensure a perfect, well engineered fit after paint. Nearly 500 hours alone were spent in the engine bay smoothing the firewall, hiding A/C lines, routing wiring and making all the pieces look like they belong together.

Before Jay Leno, this 1970 Dodge Charger was a SEMA star
Tue, Feb 23 2016When Jay Leno drives an awesome car, enthusiasts take note, and this week the internet blew up over the 1970 Dodge Charger resto-mod that starred in a recent Garage episode. But you might not remember: this strapping Charger, called "Tantrum," was one of the highlights of the SEMA Show in Las Vegas last fall. Here's another look at a true Mopar monster. The power: Yep, Tantrum has 1,650 horsepower. That's more than two Hellcats worth of power under the hood. It's a twin-turbo 9.0-liter Mercury Racing engine with a quad-cam four-valve setup. Basically, it's a V8 boat motor developed for cars. Mercury Marine is the crew that developed the V8 for the 1990s Chevy Corvette ZR-1. That all-aluminum LT-5 under the hood cranked out 405 hp – an astronomical figure for the time – and helped make the ZR-1 an icon. Take a listen to Tantrum's 9.0-liter Mercury mill below.

It specializes in remaking Detroit muscle with modern features like carbon fiber, bespoke interiors, and powerful engines. SpeedKore is pretty good at it. Before it threw a Tantrum, it did the "Cudinator" used in some of the Fast and the Furious movies. You might not know: Tantrum won the Best Domestic category of the GT Awards at SEMA – chosen by your author. The sinister looks were the hook, and the crazy engine solidified its performance cred.

Feds accuse Fiat Chrysler, UAW of conspiring to break labor laws
Wed, Jun 13 2018DETROIT — Top officials of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and the United Auto Workers union conspired to violate U.S. labor laws, federal prosecutors alleged in a court document, saying a former executive at the automaker knew bribes paid to union leaders were designed to "grease the skids" in labor negotiations. U.S. Justice Department officials for the first time called the company and the union "co-conspirators" in a document related to a guilty plea agreed by former Fiat Chrysler director of employee relations Michael Brown. The document was filed with the U.S. District Court in Detroit on May 25. Its contents were reported by the Detroit News on Wednesday. Brown pleaded guilty to one count of concealing a felony. The plea agreement stated that he knew Fiat Chrysler executives authorized $1.5 million in improper payments and travel, liquor, cigars and other goods for UAW officials who served on the union's negotiating committee. Prosecutors say FCA executives paid UAW representatives to influence union business. including collective bargaining on contracts ratified in 2011 and 2015. The government contends money was run through the UAW-Chrysler National Training Center, via false charitable donations and training center credit cards. Fiat Chrysler Chief Executive Officer Sergio Marchionne has said in the past that the misconduct "had nothing whatsoever to do with the collective bargaining process" and the "egregious acts were neither known to nor sanctioned" by the company. Fiat Chrysler had no further comment Monday. Outgoing UAW President Dennis Williams told union leaders at a conference in Detroit on Monday "our leadership team had no knowledge of the misconduct — which involved former union members and former auto executives — until it was brought to our attention by the government." Brown pleaded guilty on May 25, according to court documents, and will be sentenced on Sept. 20. Five other people have pleaded guilty in the government's ongoing investigation into the UAW and Fiat Chrysler, including the wife of a late UAW official, two other former UAW employees, former Fiat Chrysler vice president Alphons Iacobelli and another former Fiat Chrysler employee.
