for sale at NO RESERVE  is a all original  factory air conditioned v8 powered 1972 dodge dart swinger with 50234 original miles, This car is a climate controlled garage find which is much nicer than a barn find and it is in immaculate shape with all the original rust free body panels in 100 percent original paint. I purchased this car in Jan of this year through a friend of a friend in North Carolina. the car was purchased 10 years earlier from a climate controlled garage in ny state it has had 8 thousand miles put on it since it was moved to its Carolina home,,,it is hard to believe this car is originally from ny state due to the shape this car is in. I own several older mopar muscle cars and this is by far the cleanest most original old mopar I have ever owned.from looking at the bottom of this car you can see that this car has never seen any salt,it is factory undercoated and it looks as if it was never even in the rain. The car has all it's original driveline original exhaust system shocks etc, it now has new 14 inch radial tires on the factory rims with ply dog dish caps and beauty rings, I was gonna put some cragars on it but figured I would leave the rim selection to the new owner. I have the original hubcaps in perfect shape that were on the car with the old bias ply tires,(tires are gone now) but it still retains the factory bias ply spare that is brand new looking and jack that have never been out of the trunk,,the lug wrench has never been on a lug nut as the black paint is unscratched,The 318 motor runs perfect with no noise at all and the trans shifts as it should perfect also. I just put it on the road and had it inspected and the man who inspected it was amazed at the original shape this car is in under hood has all the factory chalk marks and you can see that nothing has ever been messed with,I replaced the windshield as it was cracked when I got it  but the rest of the glass is original tinted glass with no scratches in any of the windows the factory rubbers around the doors and trunk are still soft as are the cat whiskers and there is no air noise when driving this car down the road at speed  The original trunk mat is like new as is the paint in the trunk If I did not have 5 other sweet cars I would not even think about selling this car, as I said it is the sweetest original car I have owned. The few things that this car has wrong with it are aprox 4- 5 minor dings from parking lot mishaps which are barely noticeable. the grille is missing a small piece that you cant see unless you lay on the ground and look up at it. the air condition is all there in and out and I am sure if you put a shot of Freon in it it would blow ice cold. All the lights burn the gauges all  work except the speedo needle is all the way at 120 but the odometer works fine.  this car basically needs nothing to take to cruises or shows and if I were to keep it I would put a set of wheels on it and be done with it. You really need to see this car to believe it it is in amazing shape. The interior has one tiny slice in the top of  front seat about 1 in  long barely noticeable and it has one very tiny whole in the headliner along with a couple fine cracks in the dash pad. The  door panels are like new and I replaced the carpet due to someone had greasy shoes on it and as sweet as the rest of the interior is there was no sense leaving the dirty carpet in the car it has a brand new correct carpet from classic industries I also replaced the vinyl top with a new legendary top due to the old top was starting to crack from the 40 plus years. If you are looking for a dart swinger I honestly feel that you will not find one in nicer original shape than this car here and if this car is not all I claim it is when you come to pick it up I will gladly refund your down payment. Don't miss out on a time capsule as these cars are getting hard to come by in this shape and if you ever been to a car cruise and seen that one car that you cant believe how nice of shape its in..This is that car. I am offering it without reserve  at a starting bid that most people have in there paintjob. you need to do nothing but enjoy it fly in and drive it home. any questions please call eastern time 9-9 thanks Joe 7167068714 and I reserve the right to end this vehicle sale at any time as it is for sale locally as well as other venues.I am sure I have forgot some things and I want to be as honest as I can about this car so ask all questions before you bid.   it is cruise ready now and I have got so many compliments on this car the few times I have had it out I have my doubts about selling it as I know I will never come across one in this shape again

2023 Grand National Roadster Show Mega Photo Gallery | Hot rod heaven

Wed, Feb 8 2023

POMONA, Calif. — From an outsider's perspective, it would be easy to assume that the Grand National Roadster Show has always been a Southern California institution. After all, it celebrates the diverse postwar car culture of the region — hot rods, lead sleds, lowriders, and more. However, the show had its roots in NorCal in 1950 when Al Slonaker and his hot rod club showed their custom cars at the Oakland Expo. The GNRS moved to Pomona, California, in 2004. By then it had grown exponentially and seen about a dozen more car customization trends come and go. However, the show and its centerpiece award, the America's Most Beautiful Roadster prize, celebrate what is perhaps the first of those trends: the American hot rod in its purest form. Today, in its 73rd year, the GNRS is the oldest indoor car show in America. Annually it welcomes 500-800 cars, gathered into special themes like Tri-Five Chevys or Volkswagen Bugs. At this year's show, which was last weekend, a special hall was dedicated to pickup trucks built between 1948-98, including mini-trucks, groovy camper bed conversions, and resto-mods.  However, of all the vehicles presented, only nine are eligible for the America's Most Beautiful Roadster award. Winners get their names engraved on a 9-foot-tall perpetual trophy that was, according to The Ultimate Hot Rod Dictionary, the largest in the world when it debuted in 1950. Slonaker chose the word "roadster" initially because "hot rod" bore slightly negative outlaw connotations in 1950. Only American cars built before 1937 of certain body styles — roadsters, roadster pickups, phaetons, touring cars — are eligible, and they cannot have roll-down side windows.  Cars in the running for the cup cannot have been shown anywhere else before their debut at the GNRS.  Contestants for this accolade essentially build their cars to the a platonic ideal of a hot rod. This year the honors went to Jack Chisenhall of San Antonio, Texas, for his "Champ Deuce," a 1932 Ford Roadster. It's exactly what you picture when you think of a hot rod, but distilled to its absolute essence.  Other standouts included "Green Eyes," a two-tone green 1959 Chevy El Camino  with a heavily metal-flaked bed, "Blue Monday," a 1964 Buick Riviera lowrider, and a personal favorite, "Purple Reign," a purple and black 1951 Mercury. Cars may have started out as tools, but there aren't shows like this filled with custom refrigerators.

2014 Dodge Durango

Wed, 25 Sep 2013

Say what you want about the Dodge Durango, but ever since it came on the scene in 1998, it has occupied its own niche in the SUV market - not too small, not too big, tough, able, not always the best on the road and not always the best off-road. If it were a football player, it would be a tight-end that can block and catch. If it were a hamburger - a double burger with cheese and bacon, but not the Whopper.
As part of a mid-cycle upgrade for what was already a very capable SUV that Chrysler introduced in 2011, and built on the same platform as the Mercedes GL-Class and Jeep Grand Cherokee, the 2014 Durango has gotten some refinements worth noting that have cleaned up its tailoring and toned up its body and powerplant. The result is an SUV that shows itself to be a very good value in a category full of sticker prices that can run away faster than a kid who's been told he has to take ballroom dancing lessons.
Chrysler executives showing us the new Durango made a special point to reiterate that the Dodge brand is not going away, as has been rumored after the company took the Ram and Viper - the cream of the brand - out from under the Dodge umbrella. Turns out Dodge has been the brand attracting the most young people (who knew?) and has a younger average age buyer than Honda. The Dodge brand historically has also attracted buyers who aren't exactly Phi-Beta Cappa, which some companies worry about. Chrysler not so much. Dodge buyers tend to be more the working, high-school-educated, community-college-educated backbone of the work force in America. If they keep coming to Dodge, the Durango is a pretty good piece of hardware to save up for.

NHTSA closes investigation on 4.7M FCA power modules, no recall

Thu, Jul 30 2015

FCA US hasn't had the best time with recalls as of late. Not only did the company recently agree to greater safety oversight and paid $105 million to the government, that came just days after hacking fears prompted a 1.4-million model recall campaign. However, a recent decision to close an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration means that the automaker doesn't have to worry about another major recall possibly affecting 4.7 million vehicles, according to the agency's report (as a PDF). Last September, the Center for Auto Safety petitioned NHTSA to investigate an alleged problem with the totally integrated power module (TIPM) on these FCA US models. The group claimed that a fault with the component could cause a variety of maladies, including stalls, not starting, catching fire, unintended acceleration, and airbag non-deployment. At the time, it also submitted 70 cases where this had reportedly happened. According to NHTSA, "no valid evidence was presented in support of claims related to airbag non-deployment, unintended acceleration, or fire resulting from TIPM faults and these claims were found to be wholly without merit based on review of the field data and design of the relevant systems and components." The agency did find signs of an issue with the fuel pump relay in some Jeep Grand Cherokees and Dodge Durangos, but FCA US issued recalls for the problem in September 2014 and February 2015. Without anything else to go on, the Feds don't think it's worth investigating this topic any more.
