Factory original 1973 Dodge Challenger factory 318 with a 3 speed stick. Came from the factory with this drive train. It has always been in So. California since new. It has been sitting in storage for the past 13 years. Several months ago I pulled it out and began to get it back on the road. I replace the gas tank and sending unit, front water pump housing, and pump. All the hoses and belts, Restored the heater box and new core, Installed a new Carb and air cleaner and new master cylinder. It is back on the road and running and driving great. I have been using it as a go around town driver and it is very reliable. The motor has been updated to have a 4 barrel carb and vintage aluminum intake. The cam has been changed at some point in its life along with the timing chain and head rebuild. Runs really nice.

The car original came in the colors of silver with blue interior. That is a very unusual color combo but wasn't liked by the previous owner. It was converted over to the color you see in the pictures. It has very little options except an 8 3/4 rear-end and disk brakes. It has no power options except whats in your arms. all the brake have been checked and are in good working order. All the lights are in good working order. Everything works except the reverse light. The speedo works great but starts at 20mph for some reason. the interior in good shape. The seats are clean with no rips and still soft. The covers are not original material but have the original style look. The carpet has been replaced and is good shape. The rear top of the seat is probably getting a little hard from sitting in the sun but not bad. The plastic door panels are very clean original but will need the window weather strip to be changed. the interior dash has had a professional dash cap installed and looks real nice. Not much will need to be done to the interior.

The paint is older and faded out. It is the third paint job. the first being silver, then red and then the blue you see on the car. the car is straight with not much bondo that can be seen. I do know the front driver fender has had work done to it and will need some attention when the car is repainted. Its not a disaster but needs some love. the rest of the panels are nice and straight with no visual work being done to them. The trunk is solid with some surface rust but no rot. The rust I can see coming thru is both lower quarters just in front of the tires on both sides. I can only see bubbling thru the paint. The outside chrome will need to be done to be nice. It is the original to the car and is fading. The other trim is nice and original with standard scratches and dings but very usable.

the motor and trans are the numbers match to the car if anyone is interested in that. Not even sure if it has been out of the car since new. doesn't smoke or anything like that. It's a real good driver that needs a little cosmetics but over all a great car that can have a 4spd installed real easy. The exhaust system is fresh with Dynomax mufflers. sounds good. I just bought another challenger and this one needs to go at this time. Call Scott for any questions 760-559-5103

Jay Leno gets his denim mitts on Dodge's new Challenger Hellcat

Mon, 04 Aug 2014

The 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat is definitely the performance car of the moment. The fact that in the near future, people will be able to buy a 707-horsepower muscle machine straight from a major automaker for $59,995 and with a factory warranty almost seems absurd. We drove it recently and found the Hellcat to be just as much of a beast as its numbers would suggest. Now, it's a certain comedian's turn behind the wheel in the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage.
This week's guest is Dodge President and CEO Tim Kuniskis, and he's there to drop all sorts of interesting factoids about the Hellcat. For example, its Pirelli P Zero tires retail at around $300 each, he says. That makes its smoky burnouts a rather expensive proposition. Kuniskis, who recently hinted at a mystery Woodward Dream Cruise debut, also talks about the genesis of the 2015 SRT project with a goal to get over some of the standard Challenger's weight and size disadvantages. The fix is a supercharged V8, massive brakes and other goodies to smooth over the platform's more glaring shortcomings.
Leno appears to get a big kick out of the Hellcat. However, he can't seem to stop bringing up his desire to drive one with a six-speed manual. They obviously exist, but Kuniskis has an eight-speed automatic for the retired Tonight Show host to try out. Of course, as with any Hellcat video, there has to be at least one burnout. Despite the expensive tires, it seems like enthusiast's law at this point - and dear ol' Jay wouldn't want to break any rules, would he?

Small number of 2013 Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger models recalled

Sun, 24 Feb 2013

A small number of units of the 2013 Chrysler 200 (inset) and 2013 Dodge Avenger are being recalled over a broken control valve in the fuel tank assembly. The potential 1,785 sedans were manufactured late last year, and if affected with a broken control valve could suffer from stalling or fuel leakage.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration notes that the recall should begin next month, at which time owners can take their cars to dealers for repair free of charge. The full release with more information is just below.

Mopar '14 teased, returns to Challenger

Wed, 16 Oct 2013

Every year, Mopar selects one special vehicle from the Chrysler portfolio and creates its own, one-off, special edition. Previously, there was the Mopar '13 Dart, '12 300, '11 Charger and the '10 Challenger, and for 2014, this teaser image shows that the company will be giving the unique treatment to Dodge's muscle coupe yet again.
Mopar has not revealed any details about its '14 Challenger, though the brand's president and CEO, Pietro Gorlier, says that "This limited-edition ride is for muscle-car fans who love high octane and customizable performance." All we know is, it's white, has some blue stripes, and a black (or carbon fiber) rear spoiler.
We'll know more when the Mopar '14 Challenger is revealed at the SEMA show in early November. In the meantime, click the image above to check out the teaser in high resolution, and have a look below for Chrysler's official press blast.
