1971 Dodge Challenger on 2040-cars
Danville, California, United States
71 Challenger that was built to run on the street. It does have a 70 grill (I just like the look more), but everything else is 71. Non-matching numbers, converted from column shifted automatic to overdrive 4 speed (A833) on the floor with pistol grip. Paint is new, but it is NOT show quality. Car was originally dark green with black vinyl top. Engine is fresh - I believe it was a 73 or 74 block, installed newly turned steel (forged not cast) crank, along with Scat Rods and KB pistons. Edelbrock aluminum heads, Edelbrock Manifold, Holley DP (850), MP 528 solid lifter cam, Harland Sharp roller rockers, Hooker SuperComp headers, 3" exhaust, Dynaflow mufflers. MSD ignition (6AL and coil). Motor has probably 300 miles on it total. New clutch and pressure plate installed with motor. Tranny mileage unknown, does leak a drop or two out of seals on side. Air shocks installed and functional (old school). Power steering installed, but not hooked up (no belt), so it's manual steering for all intents and purposes. 8.75 rear end, not sure on ratio (3.23?), sorry. No rust on car - as far as I know the car has always been in California and inland (not near the coast), so no salt air. I did replace the rear dutchman panel as I went through it, so there was rust there, but it's now gone obviously. I also replaced the front passenger fender. Originally a vinyl top car as shown by fender tag, no longer. New seat covers, carpet, headliner, dash cover. All instruments work (emergency brake light, speedo, tach, temp, fuel, voltage, + two additional gauges (oil pressure and engine temp)). Dash lights do not work at night, no horns. All exterior lights (headlights, high beams, parking, all side markers, etc) all work just fine. No radio/stereo in the car currently. Tires are in great shape all around, wheels are 10" rear and 7" front. Rear brakes have new pads, fronts were fine (drums all around). Cars runs at 180 all day, starts right up, etc. Runs hard. I do not have a build sheet. Note: front buckets will be changed out before auction end with those shown in pic of front of car so that front seat pattern matches rear. All new seatcovers front and rear.

Dodge and Jeep recalling 895k SUVs for possibility of headliner fires
Fri, 11 Jul 2014Dodge and Jeep are announcing recalls of a total of 895,000 Durango and Grand Cherokee models worldwide from the 2011 through 2014 model years. There's a possibility that the wiring in the sun visor can short circuit and cause a fire. It specifically affects vehicles built between January 5, 2010, and December 11, 2013, and there are approximately 651,000 of them in the US, 45,700 in Canada, 23,000 in Mexico and 175,000 outside of North America.
Screws that fasten the sunvisor to the headliner may pierce wires in the visor, if the part has been removed or serviced, potentially causing a fire risk. If the wires short circuit, they could overheat and potentially combust. The automakers report three injuries caused by this defect, and according to the investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, "there may be a total of 52 unique fire incidents."
To fix the problem, Dodge and Jeep will inspect the vehicles for suspect wiring, and all of the models, whether damaged or not, will get a new sun visor spacer with a wire guide to stop the possibility of short circuits. According to the automakers' announcement, "this condition is not present in vehicles which have not had the headliner or vanity mirror serviced." They will notify affected owners, and repairs will begin in August.
Dodge Hellcats getting price hike
Fri, Aug 21 2015Dodge plans twice as many Hellcats on the road for the 2016 model year, they are going to be a bit more expensive when buyers sign on the dotted line. According to CarsDirect and confirmed to Autoblog by Dodge, 2016 Challenger SRT Hellcat costs $65,190, an increase of $4,200 over 2015. That figure includes $995 for destination and $1,700 for the Gas Guzzler charge. The latest Charger SRT Hellcat retails for $68,640, a $3,650 increase. Other SRT trims of the muscle cars also see a price hike. The 2016 Challenger SRT 392 is $51,190, after destination and a $1,000 guzzler charger – a $3,500 increase. The Charger SRT 392 also jumps $3,000, to $51,990. Even at 2015's prices, Dodge was having problems keeping up with demand for the Hellcat, and the higher price isn't likely to change that. And before you think the company is going plum crazy, the 2016 models of all four muscle cars come standard with Laguna leather seats and navigation. According to company spokesperson Dan Reid to Autoblog, both items had a "very high customer take rate," and the previously optional features are valued at $2,490. Dodge previously announced a discount for those who had a sold 2015 Hellcat order canceled in the switch to 2016. Those amount to $5,000 on the Challenger and $4,000 Charger, which seems like a sweet deal for those customers. Related Video:
Dodge Viper to out-Hell the Hellcat with supercharged V10?
Wed, 20 Aug 2014The Viper wouldn't be the Viper if it wasn't the most powerful model under the Chrysler umbrella. But with the arrival of the Hellcat engine in the Dodge Charger and Challenger, the Viper has fallen behind in the bragging rights department: where the new supercharged V8 produces 707 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque, the naturally aspirated V10 offers "only" 640 hp and 600 lb-ft - gargantuan output figures by almost any other standard, but crucially behind on the SRT power scale. Conner Avenue is going to have to do something about that.
Although the Hellcat's engine reportedly won't fit under the Viper's hood, SRT is now rumored to have another trick up its sleeve: supercharge the existing V10. According to the Pentastar performance enthusiasts at allpar.com, Chrysler has already taken delivery of the first such prototype engines so that it can begin the process of fitting it into an upgraded Viper.
The spooled ten-pot is tipped to produce around 800 hp and 650 lb-ft of torque. More than that and the Viper's drivetrain, chassis and bodywork would have to be substantially reworked. Though beefier transmissions are available, fitting them would reportedly set off a domino-game of changes required to handle the added torque. Which may be something Chrysler would be prepared to do for the next-generation model, but in the meantime, 800 hp could prove enough to put the Viper back atop the Mopar performance ladder where it belongs, and give it an edge against the new Corvette Z06 to rekindle sales.
