This 67 Charger belonged to my late boyfriend, who, as some of you may know, passed away almost 2 years ago, leaving behind an astounding collection of cars and parts, which have all been sold....except for this last car. His first car. And undoubtly the best car he ever owned.

He bought the Charger when he was 15 years old (yes, 15! He told me that he had to have it titled in his mother's name since he was so young!), and kept it until the day he died at the age of 49.  It was always garaged, and was driven very little, mostly when he was younger. He had fallen in love with the fastback Chargers at an early age, and through hard work, which he did until the day he died, he found this one here in Western Pa. It had it's original 383 in it when he bought it, but, not being satisfied with that amount of horsepower, and having been born a gear head, he saved his money and had a custom racing 440 engine built for it by racer D.A. Santucci. It is stamped on the flat pad at the front of the engine block with D.A.Santucci. His best friend, who is still a friend of mine to this day, was with him both when he bought the car, and when he picked up the engine. The engine was built with all possible upgrades and detail to attention that you would expect from a custom

built engine. I never found any specs on the engine build info, but it is remembered that the horsepower produced was as much as you could possibly safely get out of a 440 and keep it relatively stock in appearance.

The interior he pretty much left alone, except for adding a CB radio and a large speaker (he was a music lover too!). Everything works, even the EL dash. The headlight doors are unplugged and are left in the open position. I thought about plugging them in and trying them but was afraid after not being operated for so long, they might stick so left well enough alone!

The exterior is immaculate. All original body panels, no repairs or rust. There is one or two very small scars that are barely noticeable. The paint is gorgeous. The underside still has the factory undercoating and even the trunk (as pictured) could be eaten off of.

The transmission was also upgraded for performance and racing (Sundays at Quaker City Raceway, back in the day!). It has a reverse valve body in it.

I have driven it about a dozen times since he passed, and it is a car that not only takes YOUR breath away, but those you pass just drop their jaws and stare. You hear it and feel it before you see it, and it is a magnificent car all around. No, it isn't numbers matching, but it is a car in such beautiful condition that you will be hard-pressed to find one like it anywhere.

So, serious inquiries only, of course. I peronally have been selling on ebay (horse_lady21) for over 10 years, was a power-seller, and also operated kramerauto Ebay store for 2 years. I answer all emails daily, and am in contact with the estate who now owns the car for its sale. I can make a video as long as the weather holds! Available to be seen by appointment.

Daily Driver: 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat

Tue, May 26 2015

Daily Driver videos are micro-reviews of vehicles in the Autoblog press fleet, reviewed by the staffers who drive them every day. Today's Daily Driver features the 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat, reviewed by Greg Migliore. You can watch the video above or read a transcript below. Watch more Autoblog videos at /videos. VIDEO TRANSCRIPT: [00:00:00] Hey, everybody. It's Greg Migliore and today I am driving a 707-horsepower Dodge Charger. That can only mean one thing: I'm driving the Hellcat. Naturally, the spotlight feature of this car is the 6.2-liter supercharged Hemi V8. Makes 707 horsepower and 650 pound feet of torque. [00:00:30] Now naturally the engine sounds great and you can hear all of those horses going out the exhaust in back, which I think the Dodge guys have tuned really well. I think it's got one of the more unique sounds in the industry. All that horsepower will do that, but they've tuned it so there's a low kind of growl, and then it burbles and it's angry [00:01:00], it's visceral. I like it. It's intoxicating. It's different than other muscle cars. It's different than European exotics. I think it sounds great. I'm driving in sport right now which allows me to use the paddle shifters. I think it sounds a little better and the shifts of the eight-speed automatic transmission are a little bit more aggressive. For such a powerful car, Dodge did a nice job of tuning it to be actually pretty drivable. I just took a corner right there and the [00:01:30] steering offers you satisfying weight to your inputs. It's a little bit of a heavier steering, especially compared to some of the earlier generation Chargers. It's sporty, but it's not crazy. The design of the Dodge Charger is a critical element. That's why a lot of people buy this car, is it gives them that muscle car heritage look. The Hellcat has some special design cues that are also functional. You've got a couple of extra air intakes up front, keeps everything cool and breathing, the air flowing through; a nice spoiler in back [00:02:00] that helps keep the aero, and the downforce keeps you on the ground. The HID projector headlights really pop, especially at night, and in back you've got the LED taillights that spread out wide across the back end of this car like some of the great Chargers of the past. This car rolls on 20-inch black wheels with a spiderweb design. I think they look good. They're kind of low-key, which I think is great.

2023 Grand National Roadster Show Mega Photo Gallery | Hot rod heaven

Wed, Feb 8 2023

POMONA, Calif. — From an outsider's perspective, it would be easy to assume that the Grand National Roadster Show has always been a Southern California institution. After all, it celebrates the diverse postwar car culture of the region — hot rods, lead sleds, lowriders, and more. However, the show had its roots in NorCal in 1950 when Al Slonaker and his hot rod club showed their custom cars at the Oakland Expo. The GNRS moved to Pomona, California, in 2004. By then it had grown exponentially and seen about a dozen more car customization trends come and go. However, the show and its centerpiece award, the America's Most Beautiful Roadster prize, celebrate what is perhaps the first of those trends: the American hot rod in its purest form. Today, in its 73rd year, the GNRS is the oldest indoor car show in America. Annually it welcomes 500-800 cars, gathered into special themes like Tri-Five Chevys or Volkswagen Bugs. At this year's show, which was last weekend, a special hall was dedicated to pickup trucks built between 1948-98, including mini-trucks, groovy camper bed conversions, and resto-mods.  However, of all the vehicles presented, only nine are eligible for the America's Most Beautiful Roadster award. Winners get their names engraved on a 9-foot-tall perpetual trophy that was, according to The Ultimate Hot Rod Dictionary, the largest in the world when it debuted in 1950. Slonaker chose the word "roadster" initially because "hot rod" bore slightly negative outlaw connotations in 1950. Only American cars built before 1937 of certain body styles — roadsters, roadster pickups, phaetons, touring cars — are eligible, and they cannot have roll-down side windows.  Cars in the running for the cup cannot have been shown anywhere else before their debut at the GNRS.  Contestants for this accolade essentially build their cars to the a platonic ideal of a hot rod. This year the honors went to Jack Chisenhall of San Antonio, Texas, for his "Champ Deuce," a 1932 Ford Roadster. It's exactly what you picture when you think of a hot rod, but distilled to its absolute essence.  Other standouts included "Green Eyes," a two-tone green 1959 Chevy El Camino  with a heavily metal-flaked bed, "Blue Monday," a 1964 Buick Riviera lowrider, and a personal favorite, "Purple Reign," a purple and black 1951 Mercury. Cars may have started out as tools, but there aren't shows like this filled with custom refrigerators.
