This auction is for a 1969 Dodge Charger project car. My son has owned this for approx 7 years and always planned on fixing it up but other projects got in the way. He is currently doing up a 1971 Dodge Charger R/T clone so reluctently he is going to sell the 1969 to help fund his other project. To begin with the Charger needs a complete restoration. It is a complete rolling shell and chassis. No motor or trans. The car originaly was a 318 V-8, Automatic Trans, Power Steering with Drum Brakes. Brakes are down from sitting. When we purchased the car someone had started doing some body repairs. Full quarters were installed, a trunk pan with extensions, 2 front floor pans, lower back valance panel and lower inner wheel tubs. The quarters still have a weld line on the outside top edge which will need to be ground down and finish work done. The car had been sanded down in various places, primer here and there. So we sanded down the complete body and primed it where needed in order to protect it from the elements. Of course when you get it you will want to do it your way. The passenger door was replaced with a nice rust free door but does have a light scratch in the middle (very fixable). We replaced the front fenders with a good pair to work with. Passenger one has minor rust spot on bottom, drivers one has rust spot on bottom and a few blisters on top side. We bolted the parts on but didnt take the time to line them up perfect as we know the car is going to come apart again. There are some light dings and dents from being in storage but are easy fixes. Small rust hole on passenger rocker panel. Trunk lid has some issues on the outer edge. Just trying to point out some of the areas that need attention. The floors in the car are very solid. If you look at the pics there is a small rust spot right where the wire harness slips into very easy fix. All the glass is in the car. Front windshield is cracked. Rear windshield looks to have been replaced with acrylic. The rear torsion bar cross member is rusted and weak giving the drivers side a lean. We do have a wood block between the front frame rail and "A" arm to give support for now. We purchased a nice solid original crossmember from another Charger that we will include with the sale. Also there are 2 small two inch size holes in the rear frame rails just as they curve down. Water must have set in place. The rails are solid other than that. I would fix rather than replace but its your call. As far as the inside of the car is concerned the dash is intact. Pad is in good shape. No radio. Headliner is still in place but has some holes. The visors and surrounding trim is in place. I have no interior with the exception of a back seat bottom cushion and a passenger side bucket seat back which will be included. I also have upper seat belts, the other vaccum canister for headlights, 2 front kick panels, 2 front windshield side stainless, both door gaskets, fuel tank filler tube, transmission crossmember, wiring harness (condition unknown), both front fender metal splash aprons, the spare tire hook cut of the old trunk pan and power steering pump. We do have a 1969 Dodge Charger parts car that was hit hard in the rear. We cut up a 1970 Charger and was going to use parts from that to fix the 1969. This vehicle will be availble at an extra cost if the winning bidder chooses to purchase. If not then we will sell it seperate as it still has a lot of good usable parts. Im sure I have left something out so feel free to give me a call as it would be easier to discuss the car by phone.A definate worth while project. We have a clear title ,fender tag and proper dealer paper work for the car. If you have under 20 feedback please give us a call before you place a bid so that we know your serious. Sorry we have to do it this way but have been burned to many times. We take our auctions seriously and want you to do the same. If you are the winning bidder we expect a $500 non-refundable deposit within 24 hours after the sale and then full payment in 3 days. If you can not follow through with what we ask please dont bid. These auctions take time and cost money. If you need more info or pics feel free to call or email 207-324-5568 days or 207-432-2862 eves and sundays

Common Dodge Ram 1500 vs. Chevrolet Silverado breakdowns
Wed, May 4 2016These two trucks are famous for their ability to get the job done. Still, even the toughest vehicle can have mechanical problems at some time. What if we match the Dodge Ram 1500 and Chevrolet Silverado head to head? Let's find out more about common repairs for each model. Also, learn some tricks to pay for car repairs. Clunky Steering Both Dodge and the Chevy owners sometimes notice bumping and clunking when steering. This might be more noticeable when driving over bumps. The cause is usually different in each truck though. In the Dodge Ram, clunky steering is more likely due to a defective lower ball joint. Replacement costs around $300 - $400, parts and labor. Clunky Chevy Silverado steering is probably a steering rack failure. This problem appears more often in trucks with over 90,000 miles. Silverado steering rack repair will run you up to $1,000 or more. Starting Woes For the Chevy Silverado with over 130,000 miles, you might notice trouble starting. This problem may appear occasionally at first, but it typically gets worse. Excluding a weak battery, the culprit is usually the starter. Replacement will cost you around $330 - $500. Of the total cost, $90 is for labor only. Now the Dodge Ram might make a ticking sound when starting, especially on models with over 94,500 miles. The noise often disappears after the engine warms up. These symptoms may indicate a broken exhaust manifold. Repair costs range from $800 - $900. Burning Oil & Gas Gauge On The Blink Sometimes, the Dodge Ram burns oil much faster than normal. In models with over 125,000 miles, this often points towards a leaky intake manifold gasket. A knocking sound may also appear with acceleration along with possible engine misfire. The cost to repair is around $200 - $300. The Chevy Silverado has its own surprises, especially when you've filled the gas tank but the gauge still reads low. Or the needle fluctuates widely from low to full while driving. In trucks with over 120,000 miles, it's likely due to a faulty fuel sensor. You might need a full fuel pump replacement, which can cost you up to $820, parts and labor. Water Inside And Poor Heat The Ram 1500 rear window has been known to leak. You might notice the back seat and floor wet after a rainstorm. This is more common in trucks with over 65,000 miles. Resealing the Ram 1500 rear window costs around $150 - $250.
Redonkulous Dodge Charger is ridin' high
Wed, 18 Sep 2013We're a bit hazy on the styling of this particular donk, which was recently spotted hashing about by HotCarsTV at the Southern Heritage Classic Car show in Memphis. Sporting a dope paint job and some wheels that make a blunt statement about what the driver enjoys, it's a unique take on the popular customizing trend.
The owner may be kiefing it real with the theme on this Dodge Charger, but when your car looks like this, it's easy to weed out from the crowd. Chronic police stops must also make it a pain to drive on a regular basis, though. Even with the big wheels, we bet the driver still finds time to light 'em up. Take a look down below for a brief video of this outrageous mean green machine on the road.
Cars.com runs 11-second quarter with Dodge Charger Hellcat
Mon, Jun 1 2015The Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat and its Challenger sibling are two of the heroes of the modern performance world. With a headline-grabbing 707 horsepower from a supercharged 6.2-liter V8, their output even shames many supercars. But how quick can one really cover a quarter mile? Cars.com recently decided to find out by taking a Charger Hellcat to the drag strip to see if the sedan lived up to Dodge's 11-second claims. The results were quite impressive. After 13 quarter-mile runs of adjusting variables like the tire pressures and the car's various electronic aids, the Charger Hellcat managed a pass in 11.03 seconds at 126.61 mph – the pinnacle result of the day. This car was mechanically stock and wore the optional Pirelli P Zero tires. According to Cars.com, other quick sprints reached 11.09 seconds and 11.1 seconds, which even beat the site's 11.41-second best from a Challenger Hellcat last year. Getting the Hellcat's prodigious power down without losing traction was a challenge, even on the summer tires. Cars.com thought it had a run that could have dropped below 11 seconds, but then the wheels spun. Using the factory-recommended pressures, the Charger Hellcat was no still slouch with an 11.27-second time recorded, but taking things down to 25 psi proved the quickest at the strip. We already knew that the Charger Hellcat was a wonderful vehicle for eating up huge gulps of asphalt at high speeds and could verify its 204-mile-per-hour top speed (quite a bit faster, incidentally, than the Ferrari California T's 196 mph top-speed). Apparently, the 11-second quarter-mile claim is just as accurate. Also, for any curious owners, the Cars.com story divulges many of the tweaks required to reach this seriously quick time.
