BACKSTORY PLEASE READ - I am selling this 1971 Dodge Challenger for a friend. He is having medical problems and can no longer finish this project. He bought the car from Kentucky as a project. The previous owner started restoring the car and lost the VIN. It had a new VIN assigned and was titled as rebuilt. When we cleaned out the car we found the original VIN. I don't know if it can be titled back to the original VIN.

CAR - 1971 Dodge Challenger 318 auto. I believe it was originally light yellow. The interior is black with buckets and a floor console.

BODY - The body is in pretty nice shape for its age. It has minor rust in the usual places. The floors have a few spots. The trunk was the worst and has been removed. It is ready for a new one to be welded in. The doors, fenders and deck lid are in nice shape. A repo rear valance is included. A '70 & a '72 front valance are included. Also included is a fiberglass Shaker hood set up. The engine bay has been cut in with Sassy Grass Green. The base color to complete the paint job is included. All glass is intact and looks decent.

TRIM - The grille & headlight bezels are in really nice shape. The tail lights and argent filler panel are in nice shape too. The windshield & rear window trim and drip moldings look nice. Flip top gas cap also included.

DRIVETRAIN - The car was originally 318 powered, but that motor is long gone. It now has a 440 with a 727 auto and an 8 3/4 differential. (you need driveshaft)

        Engine - '71 440 block w/ steel crank - needs machine work. Includes: Wisco 6 pack pistons (.030); LY rods with ARP rod bolts; 906 heads - have been redone with bronze valve guides and 3 angle valve job - painted w/ POR 15 Hemi orange paint; brand new Comp Cam .501 lift cam; new double roller chain set; Mopar electronic ignition distributor; a Moroso 7 quart pan w/ pick up; an Edelbrock 440 Torker intake; a Barry Grant Demon 850 double pumper - rebuilt with BG metering blocks & a water pump housing with a high volume water pump. (you will need gasket set, rod, main & cam bearings, lifters and pushrods.)

        Transmission - 727 trans has been rebuilt with a performance shift kit & a deep pan with cooling tubes. (I have a stock 11" convertor w/ flex plate - you may want higher stall convertor)

        Differential - B Body 8 3/4 housing. 489 (non posi) carrier w/ 3.23 gears (needs gone through). Also includes 741 carrier w/ 2.93 gears.

SUSPENSION & BRAKES - The front suspension has been rebuilt & converted to disc brakes. The rear brakes have been redone. KYB front shocks and new air shocks in the rear.

INTERIOR - The car has a mostly complete black interior. The dash needs recovered and has a non-R/T cluster. Front door panels are fair. One has a crack. Rear panels look decent. Kick panels are decent. Rear seats are original but still looks decent. The front seats are from a '72 and have been recovered. The floor console is decent. (you will need carpet & console woodgrain decal.)

CAR IS FOR SALE LOCALLY. I may end this auction at any time. SOLD AS IS WHERE IS WHAT IS. PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING. CAR IS A GREAT PROJECT.

CASH PREFERRED - ALL CHECKS MUST CLEAR PRIOR TO VEHICLE BEING PICKED UP. I won't release the car the same day with a check.

Car will need dollied.

The car is in a storage facility on the NE side of San Antonio. The storage is month to month and can be transferred. If you need extra time to get the car out you can pay the $70 monthly fee for as long as you need to get the car.

2013 Dodge Dart gets all Moparized

Fri, 08 Feb 2013

Last year, Chrysler announced it would be offering more than 150 Mopar parts and accessories on the 2013 Dodge Dart, and we got a look at some of these parts firsthand at the Chicago Auto Show. Showing off all the optional parts at once would surely create a gaudy monstrosity, so Chrysler chose to equip this particular Dart GT with just a handful of Mopar goodies, which still gave the car a nice and tasteful custom look that is available straight from the dealership (and with a full warranty, too).
Decked out in a factory color called Header Orange Clear Coat - also a very appropriate show car hue - this car added exterior styling parts such as the vented, carbon fiber hood, the bolt-on front chin spoiler and a matte black decklid spoiler. Looking inside the car, you'd think the red-accented interior is part of the Mopar parts bin, too, but this is actually what the standard Dart GT cabin will look like when it goes on sale.

FCA CEO Mike Manley will run Americas for Stellantis after PSA merger

Sun, Dec 20 2020

DETROIT — Fiat Chrysler CEO Mike Manley will run operations in the Americas when his company merges with FranceÂ’s PSA Peugeot early next year. FCA Chairman John Elkann announced ManleyÂ’s new post on Friday in a letter to employees. ManleyÂ’s role in the merged company had been a mystery. PSA CEO Carlos Tavares will run the overall company, to be named Stellantis. Shareholders of both companies will vote on the merger Jan. 4 to seal the deal creating the worldÂ’s fourth-largest automaker. The merger is expected to be completed by the end of March. PSA will get six seats on the new companyÂ’s 11-member board, which will be chaired by Elkann. The Americas, especially the U.S., are key to the new companyÂ’s success. Fiat ChryslerÂ’s Jeep and Ram brands are highly profitable, and Tavares has long wanted to sell PSA vehicles in the U.S. Manley has been the Italian-American automakerÂ’s CEO for 2 1/2 years, taking over when Sergio Marchionne died in 2018. Stellantis will have the capacity to produce 8.7 million cars a year, just behind Volkswagen, the Renault-Nissan alliance and Toyota.

Chrysler recalling 49K Chargers for headlight components

Fri, 14 Mar 2014

Chrysler has issued a recall for about 49,375 2011 and 2012 Dodge Chargers with halogen headlamps due to a problem with the lights. The automaker says that there could be an issue with the jumper harness and other related components.
The automaker says that 43,450 cars are affected in the US, 2,850 in Canada, 375 in Mexico and 2,700 outside of North America. The vehicles will have their headlight assemblies, including the jumper harnesses and bulbs, inspected and potentially replaced. Dodge says that its engineers investigated reports of that were similar to what was found when it recalled about 10,000 police Chargers in 2012 for overheating light components. There have been no injuries or accidents related to fault, according to Chrysler.
The automaker will be in contact with affected owners, and schedule the service. Naturally, any repairs will be free of charge. Scroll down for the company's full announcement.
