Here we have a 1968 Dodge Dart that I recently took in as partial payment against another Mopar that I had . Originally it was a Dart 270 but it now it has a 440 motor with the famed six pack set-up and a 727 auto trans with a Dana 60 in the rear with a posi and 4:11 gears. And the car is supposed to be set up by a NASCAR DRIVER/MECHANIC but I cannot prove or disprove that statement. But as you can see there is some high dollar parts that go with this car as it was set-up to simply be a cool go-fast car and that is it. It is NOT A SHOW CAR but it is a cool looking car with the right motor and a really nice interior but the body work is amateurish with a few waves and misaligned body lines. So if you are looking for perfection you should keep looking but if you are just looking for a cool go fast car this just might be the one.

Now let me tell you a little more about the car in detail. First off the color is sublime green with a black tail stripe and a black six-pack hood. All new suspension painted and powder coated, Nascar style 3-piece sway bar up front (will need a front end alignment), All new front disk brakes with chrome hard lines and steel braided flex lines at each wheel, 11” performance drums in the back with New shocks both front and rear with the rear being air shocks, A narrowed Dana 60 with a 4:11 posi rear gear and 35 Spline Moser billet axles with top links on axle tubes to help prevent axle wrap, A  rebuilt manual reverse pattern valve body 727 with a deep aluminum racing tranny pan and a new 3500 Boss hog stall converter with a new  B&M pistol grip ratchet shifter, The battery was moved to the rear of the car but the battery box was made to look like a piece of luggage and not just a ugly battery box. Most of the bolts have been replaced with stainless steel or ceramic chromed, Has frame connecters that are welded in and the whole underbody is undercoated, The fuel tank is clean and ready for fuel and I has a sump with a Edelbrock quiet electric fuel pump(relayed switch is under the dash for on or off with key ignition.

It is also wearing brand new Coker red line tires stretched over brand new(painted to match) wheels with deep dish on the rear(215 up front and 255 for the rear and 15x8 front and 15x10 rear ). As for the interior it has  new carpet, new windshield, new wood grain steering wheel  and a hidden master power switch under the dash with removable key but sorry no radio.

Under the hood has also been prepped for the motor and as you can see it has a all aluminum  radiator with a stainless steel shroud and electric fan set-up(thermal activated switch with override under dash)  and a stainless overflow tank. New wiring harness, Now for the motor it is a early 70s 440 with rebuilt like new 906 six pack heads that have been ported and have larger manley valves, springs and retainers, The rods are Childs & Albert  billet rods. As for the pistons they are new 30 over forged  trw  domed pistons (11:1) with a new hydraulic purple .531 cam and new comp lifters plus a New double roller timing chain. It also has a new aluminum water pump, New oil pan with a new high volume oil pump, New chrome balancer , Chrome one wire alternator with the brackets, Aluminum pulleys and Mopar aluminum valve covers, msd distributor and all arp studs (heads and mains),  and all the gaskets needed for assembly of the motor. And to sit on top of this monster is an aluminum six-pack intake with holley carbs (2-350 cfm and 1- 500 cfm modified to fit the six pack intake so now all 3 carbs have metering blocks and power  valves for better tuning) . The block will need machining and the crank will need to be turned(neither have been turned or bored)  So that is what this car has to offer. Like I said earlier it is not a show car but just a cool go fast car that is about 90% complete but needs to be put back together by somebody looking for that cool, cool car.  Please ask any and all questions before bidding on this car as there is no warranty or guarantees on this car.( after all it is a 45 year old car)  Either  you can call me at 231-206-5258 my name is Kirk or email me thru ebay’s  ask seller a question. Well good luck if you bid on my car………………..see-ya

Mopar rolls out new Scat Packages for Dodge Challenger, Charger and Dart

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

Dodge buyers looking for that extra performance edge, take note: Mopar is bringing back the Scat Pack. Announced at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas today, the new Scat Packages will be available in three stages for the Challenger, Charger and Dart starting next spring.
Upgrades for the Charger and Challenger equipped with the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 engine include a
new cold-air intake and cat-back exhaust, as well as a remapped ECU. Upgrade to the Scat Package 2 and you get a new camshaft, and the Scat Package 3 tosses in ported and polished heads and hi-flow headers. Upgrades for the Dart GT with the smaller 2.4-liter, four-cylinder Tigershark engine with six-speed manual transmission start with a cold-air intake, short-throw shifter and upgraded brakes. The second stage kicks in a remapped ECU and cat-back exhaust, while the Scat Package 3 for the Dart gives you even bigger brakes, an adjustable suspension and sway bars front and rear.

Chevy Corvette Stingray defeating rivals where it matters most

Wed, 16 Jul 2014

Everything is coming up roses for the award-winning Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, as new data from the North American Dealers Association dissected by GM Authority reveals that America's sports car is handily outselling two of its more expensive rivals.
Through June of 2014, the NADA notes that the Corvette has rung up 17,744 sales, handily besting the Porsche 911 and positively spanking the SRT Viper. Of course, you're sitting there thinking, "Corvette is outselling the much more expensive Porsche and Viper. Sky blue, water wet." But what's impressive here is just how thoroughly the Chevrolet is beating its two rivals, with this data serving as a testament to just how popular the seventh-generation sports car has become.
So far this year, Porsche has managed to move 5,169 911s, according to NADA. Considering that the base model starts at nearly $15,000 more than the most heavily optioned Stingray, and that Porsche owners have a vast, expensive options catalogue to select from, Stuttgart's sales are still plenty impressive in relation to the nearly 18,000 Corvettes sold.

Chrysler killing off the 200 Convertible, Dodge Avenger

Sun, 23 Feb 2014

When Chrysler rolled out the first-generation 200 to replace the Sebring range in 2010, it included replacements for both the sedan and the convertible. The Sebring Coupe, however, was left out of the mix. And now that the second-generation Chrysler 200 is descending upon us, Auburn Hills is paring things down even further. But this time, it's the convertible that reportedly isn't making the cut. Shame, too, since the rendering above shows what could have been quite an attractive droptop.
As our compatriots at Edmunds point out, sales of the convertible model accounted for less than five percent of overall Chrysler 200 sales, and at those numbers, the considerable cost of engineering a new drop-top couldn't be justified. With the Toyota Camry Solara and Volkswagen Eos also gone from the market (well, the VW isn't gone quite yet), the discontinuation of the Chrysler 200 Convertible leaves the affordable convertible segment largely to the sportier likes of the Ford Mustang and Chevy Camaro and smaller European offerings like the Mini Cooper and VW Beetle.
The Chrysler 200 Convertible isn't the only derivative being left behind with the new model: so too is the Dodge Avenger. That will leave a glaring hole in the Dodge lineup, with nothing to bridge the gap between the compact Dart and the larger Charger. Whether the Dodge brand has any plans to replace the Avenger with another model, not to be based on the 200, remains to be seen.
