1968 Dodge Charger 383 Hp Auto Project Mopar 68 69 70 Dukes Hazzard Bullitt Rt on 2040-cars
Jackson, Mississippi, United States
|
Up for auction a great project 1968 Dodge Charger. The car started life with a 383 HP big block and an automatic 727 transmission on the floor. This car was ordered new in an odd format. The car was originally gold with gold interior and a white vinyl top. It has factory A/C, but what I found odd is that it was ordered with a tic-toc-tac but is an automatic car. Most automatic cars that I have owned did not have the tach and would only have a clock. The car also came with a 3.23 Sure-Grip 8 3/4 rearend. So I guess the original owner wanted a pretty decent muscle car, but didn't want the additional cost of an R/T model. Either way, It was an unusual, but very nice car back in the day.
The car is solid, for the most part, with typical Charger/B-body rust in the rear. The frame rails are solid with typical wear and tear from floor jacks, curbs, etc., but I could not see any rust issues on the rails. At some point in the car's past it was wrecked on the driver side. The exterior sheet metal was replaced but you can still see signs of damage in the left front wheel well and the left rear outer wheelhouse. Besides the left fender and quarter, the door was replaced too and it opens and shuts just fine. The car was repaired like most body shops did back in the day; they did an exterior cosmetic repair and didn't bother with the rest. The car has a nice woodgrain steering wheel and I did not notice any cracks. The interior was dyed/painted red. The carpet material was glued to the floors so I am not able to peel it back without ripping it to pieces. The floors (interior & trunk) were patched at some point and they hold up fine, but should be replaced if you plan to build the car to "show quality" standards. All in all, they car would be a great start for someone who has been looking for a Charger, but do not want to spend $10k for a project. I originally purchased the car with the intensions of doing a cheap low-buck Charger build. Kind of like the guys did on the show "Roadkill" (Youtube it... it's quite interesting). I have too many other Mopar projects and decided to sell it so that maybe someone else can enjoy it. The car shows 60,568 miles. I am not sure if that is the original mileage or is it has rolled over. The car has been off the road for many years, so it could possibly be accurate. The car does not have and engine or transmission. A few other missing parts that I can think of are the passenger bucket seat, grille assembly, rear seat, rear glass, driver side quarter glass, front and rear bumpers, radio, and misc trim. What you see in the pictures, is what will go with the car. I do not have a title for the car but I do have two Bill of Sales from the previous owners. After the sell, I will assist in getting a title for the car if you are interested. Here in MS, I can apply for a title with at least two BOS. The car DOES have it's original fender tag and it decodes as followed: For MANY additional pictures of this car, I have have set up a photo album at: http://s6.photobucket.com/user/CornDog05/library/1968%20Dodge%20Charger%20RED

This SEMA special drag race is absurdly awesome
Fri, Dec 5 2014The SEMA Show came and went last month, and it showed us a ton of heavily modded goodies to dream about during the long, cold winter. The Motor Trend Channel on YouTube is keeping the party rolling a little longer, though, with a drag race inspired by the aftermarket event. All of the hosts were supposed to borrow a vehicle from the show for the big race, but only two of them actually cajoled companies into lending their wares. Still, the result includes four very cool and extremely different examples of the breadth of the automotive hobby. First up, there's a 1955 Chevrolet with a 535-cubic-inch (8.8-liter) Hemi V8 stuffed under the hood. Appropriately, it's dubbed the Blasphemi, and with skinny tires up front, fat rubber in the rear and a stripped interior, this this is made to go very fast in a straight line. Next, there's a stock Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat boasting 707 horsepower. Plus, host Jessi Lang has her dog riding shotgun for the race. A Chevy Sonic RS with some body mods, downpipe and intake is also competing. Finally, the most bizarre of the quartet is a custom 1958 Jeep Forward Control with a 5.7-liter Hemi V8 and treads to replace the wheels. Obviously, the Blasphemi and Hellcat are the only two that really have a chance of winning, but check out the video to see which one crosses the finish line first.

Dodge Challenger Hellcat X is 805-hp worth of charity [w/video]
Mon, Jul 20 2015Donating to charity is good for the soul. You feel good and help out those in need, and while you should donate out of the goodness of your heart, there's nothing wrong with getting something in return. That's doubly true if that something (or somethings) happen to run on gasoline... a lot of gasoline. For just $3 (plus $40,000 in taxes), you could park not one, but two high-powered Mopars in your driveway. The big item, of course, is the world's most powerful Dodge Challenger Hellcat. Dubbed the Hellcat X after the XF6F, a twin-charged US Navy prototype that evolved into the Hellcat fighter from World War II. Its 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 has been supplemented by a turbocharger, boosting output to 805 horsepower. Because, you know, 707 just wasn't quite enough. It should be noted that the Hellcat X isn't a production model – Fiat Chrysler isn't going to be putting a twin-charged Hemi into production – but that it's a one-off job built for the 2015 Chrysler Nationals at Carlisle. Joining the Hellcat X is a handsome, black 1970 Challenger 440 R/T. Complete with a four-barrel carburetor (yeah, we were hoping for a Six Pack, as well), a pistol-grip shifter, and menacing black paint, this exact car was the star of 2012's "Revolution Reborn" television spot. And if this car's on-air claim to fame isn't enough, rest easy knowing you're the owner of just one of 100 black 440 R/Ts produced in 1970. Now, single tickets do start at $3, although there are larger bundles available, including a $5,000, 6,000-ticket package. Proceeds from the drawing, which is being put on by Dream Giveaway, will go towards New Beginning Children's Home charity, which issues grants to everything from the National Guard Educational Foundation to Mothers Against Drunk Driving.

Chevy Corvette Stingray defeating rivals where it matters most
Wed, 16 Jul 2014Everything is coming up roses for the award-winning Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, as new data from the North American Dealers Association dissected by GM Authority reveals that America's sports car is handily outselling two of its more expensive rivals.
Through June of 2014, the NADA notes that the Corvette has rung up 17,744 sales, handily besting the Porsche 911 and positively spanking the SRT Viper. Of course, you're sitting there thinking, "Corvette is outselling the much more expensive Porsche and Viper. Sky blue, water wet." But what's impressive here is just how thoroughly the Chevrolet is beating its two rivals, with this data serving as a testament to just how popular the seventh-generation sports car has become.
So far this year, Porsche has managed to move 5,169 911s, according to NADA. Considering that the base model starts at nearly $15,000 more than the most heavily optioned Stingray, and that Porsche owners have a vast, expensive options catalogue to select from, Stuttgart's sales are still plenty impressive in relation to the nearly 18,000 Corvettes sold.
