1971 Dodge Challenger on 2040-cars
Fairmount, Georgia, United States
|
I am putting my 71 Dodge Challenger up for auction due to a recent lower back injury that has greatly limited my range of motion so I am not able to progress forward with my plans I had for this car. Anyone wanting to come and look this Challenger over prior to placing a bid is more than welcome to come see it. It is located on highway 53 between Fairmount and Calhoun Georgia. Please contact me phone numbers so I can arrange for someone to meet you and how you the car.
NOTE: I purchased this Challenger in the state of Alabama which did not issue titles for cars until 1973 (per the DMV) so I am selling this Challenger with a Bill OF SALE ONLY. In the past when I lived in a state needing a paper title for an older vehicle I used International Title Services out of Las Vegas,NV to obtain a title. There are other companies which can help you obtain a paper title but I cannot speak for their services. ITS did a good job for me when I used them and got me a title I used when I lived in North Carolina. I have listed in the know condition of the vehicle what I do know about this Challenger. It is not a numbers matching car. The VIN decodes to a vehicle from the factory with a 383 in it but know has a 440 in it, casting date in 1969 and installed in a 1970 model vehicle per the numbers on the machined pad on the block above the oil pan. I purchased this Challenger which has a set of Hurst Lightning Rod shifters in it which limits the installation of the normal console top plate, P-R-N-D-L2-L1 lighted shift indicator and woodgrain stick on applique (decal). I planned on changing it back to a slap stick shifter or 4 speed since it was setup at one time with a 4 speed but I am auctioning it off as is since I can't do the bending necessary to do the work associated with changing the shifter setup. The swing pedal assembly setup for a manual transmission is still in the car minus the clutch pedal. The smaller sized brake pedal is still in the vehicle and the hole for the 4 speed shifter has been covered over with sheet metal under the carpet on the drive shaft tunnel. The car has a brand new Edelbrock model 1411, 750 CFM carburetor on it and Edelbrock Torquer manifold. I think whomever purchases this car is getting a solid car that they can work with and turn into an excellent show piece with a bit of work. Car has solid front and rear floor pans, trunk floor, quarter panels, doors, fenders, hood etc etc. I have decoded the casting numbers and stampings (below) that I have located on the 440 engine block
HEADS:
Other engine parts information I found on a handwritten piece of paper in the documentation I received with this car. Crankshaft - 3512036 Rods - 3462426 When I initially saw this car the previous owner was doing a bearing inspection on it and I ask him to write down any part numbers he could locate while doing the bearing inspection/change out so I did personally located the engine numbers but did not personally look at the crank and rods but am listing, above, what I found in the cars documentation. SPECIAL NOTE: I have a complete 6 pack setup that will bolt right up to this engine plus matches the casting date of the engine within a day of it's casting (engine date-11-7-69, 6 pack cast iron manifold casting date 11-6-1969 (intake #2946276) ADDITIONAL PHOTOS available upon written request. Just let me know what view of the Challenger you would like to have. This Challenger is For Sale locally and I reserve the right to end this auction if the car sells locally. I am receptive to discussing offers but at the price I have this Challenger listed at I am losing almost $5,000.00 so please don't expect me to give this car to you. On Sep-23-14 at 16:36:17 PDT, seller added the following information: REV#1:Additional photos posted. Many are asking for these pics & it is a bit easier to post them here than send 30 individual e-mail replies. Interior pics will be added tomorrow afternoon. |

25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango SUVs recalled over brake feel
Mon, 10 Mar 2014Chrysler has announced that it is recalling over 25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs from several markets over concerns about brake feel under hard braking. The affected models are from the 2012 and 2013 model years, although the actual dates of production aren't available. 18,700 are in the US, while 825 are in Canada, 530 are in Mexico and a further 5,200 outside of North America.
According to a statement, Chrysler was informed of the issue by a component supplier for the Ready Alert Braking system, which primes the brakes in anticipation of an emergency stop. A component in the system was restricting the flow of brake fluid too much.
As Chrysler is quick to point out, the way the brakes functioned was in compliance with regulations and there are no reported cases of drivers losing braking power. Instead, the issue rests with what Chrysler calls a pedal feel that "was not consistent with customer expectations." So it would seem Chrysler is being proactive and fixing a problem not because there's a legal issue at work, but simply because it doesn't feel the way the manufacturer wants it to. Well done.

2016 Dodge Viper ACR is ready to take a bite out of the Corvette Z06 [w/video]
Fri, May 8 2015The Dodge Viper ACR is back, and as Fiat Chrysler Automobiles tells it, it's the most venomous breed ever born. Before you get too excited, the 8.4-liter V10 produces 645 horsepower; five more than the standard Viper and five less than the supercharged Chevrolet Corvette Z06. It's unclear why Dodge didn't extract more from the huge engine, although we somehow imagine that certain people in Maranello, Italy had a say in the matter. Instead of blessing the ACR variant with bunches of extra output, Dodge instead turned to an aggressive aerodynamics package that it claims delivers nearly a ton of downforce at the Viper's maximum speed of 177 miles per hour. The total aero package includes an adjustable, twin-element, carbon-fiber rear wing, carbon-fiber diffuser, an extendable front splitter, and dive planes. Those big louvers on the hood? Yeah, they're removable, too. The "race-tuned" suspension uses coil-over Bilstein shocks that offer ten different settings and up to three inches of height adjustment. Kumho Ecsta V720 tires were built specifically for the Viper ACR, and come in 355/30 in back and 295/25 in front, with 19-inch wheels at all four corners. Along with the aero improvements, Dodge is claiming the Viper can pull a race-car-like 1.5Gs in higher-speed turns. Carbon-ceramic brakes with six-piston calipers add the stopping power that's greater or equal to the ACR's cornering performance. Dodge was also keen to reduce weight, taking some rather dramatic measures in the effort. The stereo has just three speakers, while the electric function was removed from the seats. Even the carpet has been replaced with a "lightweight" alternative. Finally, Dodge is offering up the innovative 1 of 1 customization it pioneered with the Viper GT earlier this year. That means that not only can you get the fastest Viper ever built, but it'll be entirely your own when you take delivery.
