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. |

FCA is setting a five-year strategy: Here's how the last one played out
Thu, May 31 2018We're slightly more than four years removed from Sergio Marchionne last five-year plan for FCA, a tell-all where the Italian-American automaker divulged its plans for the 2014 through 2018 model years. It was a grand affair, where Sergio told FCA investors that all was right in Auburn Hills, Alfa Romeo and Maserati were making comebacks, and the fifth-gen Dodge Viper received a mid-cycle refresh. You can read every last one of those past predictions right here. We're on our way to Europe to see Sergio's sequel, coming out Friday straight from FCA's Italian headquarters. (Bloomberg reports a plan to expand Jeep and Ram globally, combine Alfa Romeo and Maserati into a single division for an eventual spinoff, and downsizing Fiat and Chrysler. Also, EVs.) But before we arrive in Italy and find out exactly what Marchionne has planned for 2019 through 2023 as his last act as CEO, let's take a minute to tally up the results of his last term based on the same scoresheet we used in 2014. Now, we're only five months into 2018, so much of this — including vehicles like the Ram HD and Jeep Grand Wagoneer — could still debut this year. For those, we'll mark things TBD. We're not going to draw any conclusions or make any objectionable remarks. We're simply going to let the stats speak for themselves.
eBay Find of the Day: Viper Defender from '90s TV show
Fri, 24 May 2013As car lovers, it's always hard to find a good television show with decent cars, but what the 1990s show Viper lacked in acting, scripting and plot, it more than made up for with cool cars. For starters, the lead car was a Dodge Viper RT/10, but, on screen, it was able to morph into its "Defender" mode making it an armored coupe with a full arsenal of weapons.
Fortunately, you don't have to be a fan of the bad show to love its lead car, and if you really want one, a Defender is up for auction right now on eBay. According to the listing, this car is the real deal - not a clone - and it comes with a V8 engine (not sure what happened to the V10?) and plenty of swag and memorbilia. No word on its actual asking price, but with a day left and 42 bids already, the reserve has not been met at $133,400. The listing does add that this same car was listed at Mecum back in 2010, but did not get sold, even with a bid of $270,000.
Motorweek goes retro with '80s hot hatch shootout
Mon, 03 Nov 2014Motorweek's decades of history on television make it the perfect medium to look back into the automotive past and see how things are different now. It recently added old road test videos to its YouTube channel of the Acura NSX and Toyota Supra, as well as the Ferrari F40. For one of its newest flashback clips, Motorweek has exhumed an affordable five-car challenge of 1986's premiere hot hatches.
By today's standards, this is an eclectic field that features fondly remembered classics like the Volkswagen GTI 16-valve and Acura Integra. However, it also throws in some nearly forgotten contenders like the Dodge Colt Turbo and Ford Escort GT. The angular Toyota Corolla FX16 GT-S rounds out the group.
It's fascinating to watch Motorweek run the quintet through the slalom, down the drag strip and on various roads. What's most striking in this clip is the difference in the definition of a performance car between then and now. With its 16-valve, 1.8-liter four-cylinder, the GTI is the burliest of the contenders with 123 horsepower, but it still takes 8.8 seconds to reach 60 miles per hour. By today's standards, that would make it a plain-jane economy car, and not even a particularly quick one.
