Fully restored, 1968 Dodge Charger General Lee replica. This is one of the nicest replicas
that you will ever see. The car was purchased in 1997 and restoration was completed in 2006. The car is also
autographed by all the surviving cast members from the show. I was lucky enough to get James Best's autograph on
there, too. The car has been converted to a 1969 Charger just like they used to do on the TV show. The bodywork is
near flawless. Both quarterpanels have been replaced. The trunk floor pans and quarter panel extensions have also
been replaced. The front floor pans have also been replaced. The car is painted using 1975 Corvette Flame Red (Code
C70) just like they used to use on the show, too. The flag, numbers, and "General Lee" text are also all painted
on. No decals here! The tail panel extension was replaced with one form a 1969 Dodge Charger, as was the front
grille. All the side marker lights, on the fenders and quarter panels, have been filled in. They used to do this on
the later episodes of the show, too. When the floor pans were off, the inside of the frame rails were sandblasted
and a rust inhibitor was also applied. Underneath the car is near perfection. The entire under carriage has been
sandblasted, primed, undercoated, painted and clear coated. The engine compartment, and underneath the hood, is
painted semi-gloss black. The entire inside of the cabin and trunk is lined with dyna mat. The trunk houses a
full-sized spare.
The car originally had a 318 motor in it, but this was replaced with a fully rebuilt 440 V-8 motor. The cylinders
were bored .030" over and the compression ratio requires the use of 93 octane. Atop the motor sits an aluminum
Edelbrock intake and a 4 barrel Holley carb. Moroso valve covers sit atop the heads. The transmission is a 3 speed
automatic that was rebuilt, too. All the gas and brake lines are stainless steel. The gas tank is brand new. The
car has manual braking with brake drums on the front and rear. The rear end had a 3.55 Auburn Gear differential
installed in 2014. This is a sure grip differential. The exhaust headers are Hooker headers that have been ceramic
coated inside and out. A 3" Flowmaster dual exhaust completes the exhaust system. The car also has the signature,
12 note dixie horn, with the horns mounted under the hood and the button hidden inside the ash tray. The car rides
on original 14x7 American Racing vector rims. The tires are all BF Goodrich Radial TAs, including the full sized
spare in the trunk. The odometer on the car has stopped working a few years ago. It needs to be repaired or
replaced. The speedometer also reads slightly higher than the actual speed. This is due to the tire size on the car
and this can be fixed by replacing the speedometer gear with a 36 tooth gear.
The interior of the car is astonishing. The front and rear seats, and front and rear lower door panels are from
Legendary Auto interiors in the Dukes of Hazzard tan color. The remaining parts of the interior was custom dyed to
match Legendary's color. The visors have all the cast members' autographs. These include autographs from Catherine
Bach, John Schneider, Tom Wopat, Ben Jones, Rick Hurst, James Best, and Sonny Shroyer. The car also comes with the
correct Radio Shack tear drop antenna and the correct cobra CB radio

2015 Dodge Charger configurator opens up shop

Thu, Dec 11 2014

Itching to get your hands on a new 2015 Dodge Charger? Your day is almost nigh, my friend While you're waiting, you can spec out how you'd want your muscle sedan to look as Dodge has included the revised four-door in its online configuration tool. Though it's not the most impressive or interactive of configurators we've seen, the site lets you choose any color you want (from the limited array available anyway) along with all the key options packages and such. First you'll need to choose a trim level though, but we're afraid the Hellcat version isn't part of this site, and the SRT site hasn't launched a configurator yet for the world's fastest production sedan, so you'll have to choose between SE, SXT and R/T trim levels.

2014 Dodge Dart Blacktop hits the pavement ahead of Detroit

Tue, 07 Jan 2014

Dodge is getting ready to spread the Blacktop-themed love to the smallest member of its lineup. Last year, the automaker offered up Blacktop versions of the Avenger, Challenger, Charger, Durango, Grand Caravan and Journey. And now the Dart, too, gets its dark on for 2014, with the $295 package offered on Dart SXT models equipped with the Rallye Appearance Group. The Dart Blacktop will make its debut at the Detroit Auto Show next week.
As with the other Blacktop special-edition models, the Dart Blacktop gets glossy black accents for a "sporty, sinister look." The blacked-out treatment spreads across the 18-inch wheels to the crosshair grille, grille surround and headlamp bezels. The interior sees a similar treatment, with black and light tungsten or black and ruby red cloth to go with red accent stitching on the instrument panel, center console and seat bolsters.
For the 2014 model year, all Dart SXT and Limited models receive the 2.4-liter MultiAir2 Tigershark engine with 184 horsepower and 174 pound-feet of torque, and since the Blacktop is based on the SXT, that's the powerplant buyers of this special-edition will get, too. Expect the 2014 Dart Blacktop to hit dealers in the first quarter, and while you're waiting, feel free to read more in the official press release below.

Dodge Demon makes so much torque, it needs stronger driveline parts

Thu, Mar 2 2017

Torque is a lovely thing, a sweet and wonderful force that twists and pulls and can help propel a two-ton metal box forward at comical speeds. Torque is also fickle and will bend and break those same metal parts without a second thought, which is why the new Dodge Demon is compensating for its increased torque with some new re-engineered and reinforced parts. And there's software intended to combat wheel hop, which one of the most dramatic ways torque can break stuff. Week 8's video, "Race-hardened Parts," gives a hint towards what all these new parts can do. While we still don't know how much torque the Demon will throw out, we do know it's enough to warrant an upgraded prop shaft, half shafts, and a differential housing. The Challenger Hellcat, which is the basis for the Demon, makes 650 pound-feet of torque already. The new parts will go a long way toward making sure the work from the Demon's engine is properly translated into motion by those Nitto drag radials. The new prop shaft uses high-strength steel, heat-treated stub-shafts, and increases the tube thickness by 20 percent for a 15 percent increase in torque capacity. Additionally, Dodge says the upgraded differential housing allows for a 30 percent increase in torque capacity by using heat-treated A383 aluminum alloy and a higher strength shot-peened gear set. The 41-spline half shafts that deliver 20 percent increased torque capacity through the use of high-strength low alloy steel and 8-ball joints. In addition to the hardware, the Launch Assist software has been tuned to help alleviate wheel hop. Dodge says the Demon is the first factory production car that uses wheel speed sensors to detect hop and momentarily cut torque to compensate. This means a driver can keep their foot planted on the floor while the computer sorts out the traction. Previously, the best solution was to back off the throttle to manually cut the load. Finally, the Dodge Demon will offer a four-point harness mounting bar as an optional accessory. The part will be supplied by Speedlogix and fits in place of the deleted rear seat. Customers can install the bar without having to hack apart their cars to find a proper mounting point. Look for more teasers and info on ifyouknowyouknow.com in the lead-up to the Demon's debut at the 2017 New York Auto Show.
