I purchased this car from the original owner and as far as we can tell it has not been out of the garage or on the road since 1999. I pulled the gas tank out and had it flushed out installed new fuel filters and replaced the fuel pump and some of the fuel lines also installed an edelbrock carburetor and it starts and runs great. I did drive it up and down the road just to make sure everything was working as good as it could for a car that has been sitting for 20+ years.
Ok now for what I know about this car, it does have the numbers matching 340cu in V8 engine in it I can't tell about the transmission I have not found the numbers on it yet. It is an S code Rallye with the 150mph speedo, until the owner decided to spray it with black primer it was an F3 code green with a black interior. For all the other original equipment I have a nice picture of the fender tag included in my pictures.
The Good;
As you can see in the pictures other than surface rust the under side of it as nice as I have ever seen.
Interior other than the front seats and head liner is in great shape.
340 engine does not smoke and it sound like a mild cam has been put in at some point,
It has been sitting in on my concrete garage floor for 6 months and has not leaked any fluids but I can see some damp areas on the transmission but not enough to leak on the floor yet.
Trunk floor looks solid with no holes but the sealer needs replace and surface rust removed and painted.
Rallye wheels and tires look very good but I think I would replace the tires since it sat so long?
Clean Ohio title!!!!
Very low miles 69908!!!!!!!!
Both doors look great!! no rust at all ever on the seams.
For the Bad;
Rear quarters both have had work but I don't think they will need replaced and the wheel wells look good, front fenders have both had some repair done at the front and lower rear. bumpers need rechromed unless you like that black primer look. Front seats need recovered, carpet is gone. I think fuses but not sure since radio and a couple gauges don't work.
All in all though for someone wanting a real classic muscle car with minimal expense and if you are able to do the work yourself I think this is a great car to start with.
I do have the car listed locally for $9500.00 or trades entertained, and it may possibly sell before the auction ends so that is why I also put a buy it now on.
If you have any questions please email and I will do my best to answer them.

Mopar '13 Dart will roll into Chicago next week
Thu, 31 Jan 2013We think this officially counts as a tradition. Every year going back to 2010, Mopar has rolled out a limited edition version of a popular product from the Chrysler Group portfolio. First it was the Mopar '10 Challenger, then the Mopar '11 Charger, then last year's Mopar '12 300, and this year it will be the Mopar '13 Dart, which will make its official world debut next week at the 2013 Chicago Auto Show.
Limited in number to just 500 units, the Mopar '13 Dart is no mere appearance package, though the demeanor of the Dart will be murdered out with a gloss black finish, gloss black 18-inch wheels, a set of Mopar blue stripes and a mean-looking Mopar ground effects kit. Likewise, the interior is touched up with leather seats (a blue one for the driver and black hides for the passengers), gloss black and black chrome trim, blue accent stitching, a sport pedal kit and other Mopar interior accessories.
Turning our attention back to the mechanical bits, the Mopar '13 Dart comes with the car's most powerful engine, a turbocharged 1.4-liter MultiAir four (shared with Fiat 500 Abarth) that's paired with a manual transmission. Those big, black wheels get wrapped in low profile 225/40R18 performance tires, and keeping everything in check is an upgraded brake kit with slotted rotors. The steering has also been calibrated for performance, the suspension lowered seven millimeters, and the exhaust tuned for better engine breathing.
eGarage interviews a couple with 65 Vipers
Thu, 12 Sep 2013Owning multiple vehicles can be a hassle worth enjoying if you're willing to spend the time and the money required to acquire and maintain them. But when it's hard to make ends meet while underused valuable hunks of metal, plastic and rubber sit happily taking up garage space, journeys into the depths of other people's well-developed automotive obsessions will either bring you and your cars closer together, or compel you to sell them off before you become one of those fanatics. A recent video by eGarage is one of those journeys, and it's not for the faint of heart: D'Ann and Wayne Rauh own 65 Dodge and SRT Vipers in a collection of automobiles that exceeds 100.
We're not sure if the couple has developed heat-resistant calves from stepping over Viper door sills made burning-hot by side-exhaust pipes, but we wouldn't be surprised if they did. We did learn that their obsession with the no-holds-barred sports car started in 2006 with a trip to a dealership to buy just one Viper, which goes to show how innocently car obsessions can start. But the Rauhs seem to be doing just fine - perhaps better - 64 more Vipers later.
Watch the video below for the full story and to see what eGarage claims is the world's largest Viper collection.
Junkyard Gem: 1992 Dodge Shadow America
Tue, Aug 2 2016A quarter-century ago, most Americans looking for a cheap transportation appliance went for cars like the miserably-stripped-down-but-bulletproof Toyota Tercel or the feature-laden-but-reliability-challenged Hyundai Excel. Chrysler, having just discontinued the elderly "Omnirizon" platform, took the Dodge Shadow and its Plymouth sibling, the Sundance and offered a car that was bigger, more powerful, and better-equipped than just about anything else for the price: the America! These cars depreciated hard and nearly all were crushed a decade ago, so sightings are extremely rare today. Here's one that I found in a Northern California self-service yard. This one still had windshield paperwork indicating that it was an insurance-company auction car (probably totaled in a fender-bender that caused $200 worth of damage) and that it was a runner at the time it got junked. Such is the fate of 24-year-old economy cars in rough shape. The Shadow was a member of the many-branched K-Car family tree, and the Shadow America came with the same 2.2-liter straight-4 engine that powered millions of Caravans, Daytonas, New Yorkers, and Lasers. You got more torque than the competition, plus a driver's-side airbag instead of the maddening automatic seat belts found in other low-priced cars of 1992. Of course, the paint tended to peel off within a few years and the build quality of the Shadow was hit-or-miss, but these cars were way nicer to drive than, say, a Tercel EZ or Subaru Justy.
