Citron Yella with black top and interior. 383 V8 with Slap Stik automatic transmission. Well maintained with 142,200 miles. Always garaged. 1st place awards in Classic 70's & 80's category in local car show 2009, 2011 & 2012. Rare vehicle in excellent condition. Only 5,741 Challenger Convertibles built in 1970 & 1971. Repainted in May 1993 with original color. Seats and boot cover replaced in 2003 in high grade leather looking vinyl (similar to original), and convertible top replaced in 1995 (material similar to original) original rear glass window retained. Original dash and interior door panels. Custom shifter handle and new radio and added rear speakers. Original radio remains but not working. Transmission rebuilt in 1991. Complete list of significant maintenance items available.


In answer to questions asked about transmission, A/C, rust or rot, this was the reply: The engine had a valve job in 1988 but has never been removed from the car. The transmission has been rebuilt twice, in 1988 and 1991. I assume it was removed for these rebuilds, then replaced. So the car still has its original engine and transmission. The car (purchased in San Diego) does not have A/C, but does have power steering and brakes.

There is no rot. There are half a dozen small rust spots on the top of the fender beneath the hood. They are very shallow and the largest spot is 2 X 1-1/2 inches. There are also several small spots on the bottom side of the hood. Many years ago the trunk got wet and some rust formed on the trunk floor. This rust was removed and the trunk bottom primed. There is no rust there now. Otherwise, to the best of my knowledge, the car is rust free.

Chrysler Recalling 870,000 SUVs For Brake Defect

Wed, Apr 2 2014

Chrysler is recalling nearly 870,000 SUVs because corrosion may make the vehicles' brakes harder to use. Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs from the 2011 through 2014 model years are involved. Chrysler says crimp joints in the brake boosters can corrode if they're exposed to water. If the water freezes, the boosters won't aid braking as they usually do. Chrysler began investigating after some customers said their brakes felt too firm when pressed down. The company knows of one accident, but no injuries, due to the defect. Dealers will install a shield to protect the boosters for free and replace boosters that aren't working properly. Chrysler has since changed the design to make the boosters more corrosion resistant. Chrysler will notify owners of the recall, which involves 867,795 vehicles.

Dodge Challenger Hellcat drift video is pure horsepower porn

Fri, Mar 27 2015

We could listen to the whining, snarling 6.2-liter Hemi V8 in the Dodge Challenger and Charger Hellcats all day long. The noise just sounds like power that's being barely restrained and is everything about a muscle car that's right. The team at Pennzoil apparently understands that allure, too. The oil company has a new video where it lets the engine roar for over a minute, while a Challenger does some big, smoky drifts through an abandoned city. The whole stunt is edited together in a slickly produced way that looks fantastic. Although, the big finale might go a little too far and starts straining believability. Nonetheless, the Hellcat's wonderful noise is still the star of this show. Related Video:

Roadkill pits every project car against each other

Sat, 22 Feb 2014

The guys behind Motor Trend's monthly Roadkill series have collected nine of their favorite project cars from their videos and pitted them against each other in a battle royale to determine a winner. It's 44 minutes long, but it's completely worth the investment of time.
The cars run the gamut from a 1973 Chevrolet Ramp Truck, a 1975 AMC Pacer and a legitimately impressive 1967 Chevy Camaro, and they are pitted against each other to see which is the fastest around an autocross course. The drivers include Roadkill's two hosts and Motor Trend's Johnny Lieberman and Carlos Lago. It's reminiscent of the best episodes of Top Gear and worth a watch.
So it's the weekend - the perfect time to relax. Grab your preferred beverage, get comfortable and enjoy 44 minutes of some seriously ratty but utterly cool project cars as they are throttled within an inch of their lives (or past it). Scroll down to check out the video.
