Mopar E-body, B5 Blue Ext / Blue Int on 2040-cars
Live Oak, Florida, United States
|
For sale is my 1973 Dodge Challenger. The car was a project intended for a big block swap but having too many projects dictates a sale. This car is being sold as a rolling chassis, less engine and transmission, but will include many parts to complete an installation. Originally this car was equipped with a 318/904 Engine and transmission combo but it would be very easy to drop in an engine combination of the buyer's choosing, given the parts included.
Some features about the car: * Disc front brakes * Power steering * All glass is intact and in good shape. * All trim pieces, lighting, etc is intact and in decent shape. * Rallye Hood * 8 3/4" Rear end, 3.23 Ratio * Center console shift Slapstick shifter mechanism with nice handle. * V8 K-frame * Complete interior, however, the plastic panels are faded and could use a dying, Factory color-coded interior dye is included. * New Legendary Interiors replacement blue seat covers on the front, the rear seat is original and in good shape. * Two rear valances (one has dual exhaust cutouts, one does not) * The inside of the car is currently LOADED with boxes of spare parts. (Grille trim, random stainless pieces, interior trim, headlight trim, nice seatbelts, window cranks, driveshaft for 318/904, Challenger-specific rectangular exhaust tips, etc) * Brand new 26" Big Block radiator in the box inside the car. What this car is, is a decent, buildable chassis that is most importantly complete with the associated interior parts, good glass, and associated trim pieces. (minus drivetrain, obviously) The body of the car is in fair condition, but it's obviously a car that's over 40 years old and needs some attention, so please take a good look at the photos detailing the condition. The car has decent floors, and is a good candidate to fix up and make a fun driver. The fenders are aftermarket fg ones. There are some bubbles in the paint on the hood due to a tarp trapping moisture and there is some rust forming around the lower body which is typical of these cars. The drivers front frame rail needs patched or replaced (passenger side appears fine), this is a ~$300 part and wasn't a big deal to me considering I had intended on welding in sub-frame connectors regardless to support the power of a big block in this chassis. I've included pics showing these flaws. Any prospective buyer is encouraged to inspect the car in person or ask me any questions prior to purchase. This car is also for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time should it sell. If Buy-It-Now is used, the purchaser will also receive a set of Hedman headers for a big block E-body, and two Big block 727 transmissions with other parts to finish a drivetrain swap. |

Marchionne on Alfa's US return, Dodge Dart's powertrain weakness and minivan plans
Fri, 18 Jan 2013As a reporter covering an auto show, the one opportunity you never want to miss is going to the Sergio Marchionne press briefing.
"This undertaking to bring Alfa back is a one-shot deal... We are not going to do this twice."
There just aren't that many real characters left in the auto industry. Marchionne, who sits atop both Chrysler and Fiat, is not only one of the smartest execs in the business, but also the most frank. Herein, a sample of the quotable always-sweatered executive:
NHTSA investigating power modules on Chrysler Group SUVs and minivans
Mon, 29 Sep 2014The Center for Auto Safety is officially petitioning the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to begin scrutinizing alleged problems with the totally integrated power module (TIPM) on about 24 Chrysler Group SUVs and minivans. The advocacy group claims that the part's failure can cause affected vehicles to stall or not start at all. NHTSA is still looking into the accusations and deciding whether a full investigation is actually warranted.
The CAS petition claims at least 70 TIPM failures, but according to NHTSA, six of the complaints are for models that don't have the modules. In 34 of the reported cases, the vehicles refused to start, and in 17 of them the engine stalled. There were also two allegations of smoke and one of a fire. However, none of these affected airbag deployment or resulted in a crash.
This petition isn't the first TIPM-related problem for Chrysler Group. A recent report in the New York Times alleged that it found 240 complaints potentially related to the issue on NHTSA's website alone. In September, the automaker also recalled 230,760 examples worldwide (188,723 in the US) of the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango replace the fuel pump relay circuit inside of the TIPM-7 with one external to the unit. The original part could allegedly cause the models to stall without warning. Even earlier, the company also recalled about 80,000 examples of the Jeep Wrangler and Dodge Nitro in 2007 to have the module reprogrammed.
Fort Worth Police investigating officer for using pepper spray on bikers
Tue, Mar 15 2016A Fort Worth Police officer was placed on administrative duties after video surfaced showing him allegedly spraying pepper spray at a group of passing motorcyclists during a traffic stop over the weekend. An officer with the FWPD pulled over one of the group's chase vehicles, a red Dodge Ram, that was escorting riders in case of a crash or mechanical troubles. The video, shot from one of the motorcyclists' helmet cams, caught the FWPD officer exiting his vehicle and, before approaching the truck, spraying something into traffic at the group of riders. WFAA News 8 spoke with the men responsible for the video, Jack Kinney and Chase Stone, via Skype from Longview, TX, on March 13. "It's the last thing I would expect to see," Kinney told the station. "His intent was to hit the bikers for sure, there's no doubt about it," said Stone. "His intent was to send somebody down, if not to cause a major accident with that spray". As the video went viral, receiving more than 200,000 views in 15 hours, people shared videos showing the group of motorcyclists riding in an irresponsible manner through traffic right before the alleged pepper spray incident. Fort Worth Police say they received numerous calls about the pack of riders from motorists on surrounding highways, with complaints ranging from weaving in and out of lanes to popping wheelies through traffic at high speed. News 8 asked Kinney and Stone if it was possible that the officer felt threatened. "If you're worried about safety, why would you pepper spray a large group of bikers like that?" asked Kinney. The Dallas Morning News identified the officer as W. Figueroa. Worth Police released an official statement about the incident late on the afternoon of March 13. They stated that the officer in question, a six-year FWPD veteran, had been relieved of his patrol duties and placed on desk duty pending the investigation. FWPD Corporal Tracey Knight also made a statement indicating that pepper-spraying drivers in oncoming traffic is not a department-sanctioned tactic.
