1969 DODGE CHARGER R/T 440 MAGNUM. NUMBERS MATCHING CAR. ORIGINAL 440 MAGNUM ENGINE AND 727 TORQUEFLITE 3 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION CAR. ORIGINAL FACTORY GEARING STILL IN CAR. THE CAR IS NOT RUNNING AND WILL NEED TOWED OR TRAILERED.

I ORIGINALLY PURCHASED THIS CAR IN 1985 AT TIME OF MY GRADUATION FROM HIGH SCHOOL. HAS BEEN WITH ME EVER SINCE BUT I HAVE LET IT GO AND I GUESS I NEED TO MOVE ON AND LET SOMEONE ELSE THAT HAS THE TIME AND MONEY TO GIVE IT A FIRST CLASS RESTORATION LIKE I WISHED I COULD DO.
THE CAR WAS LAST LICENCED IN 1997. ABOUT SEVEN YEARS AGO ITS 40 YEAR OLD WIRING GAVE OUT WITH A MELTDOWN AT THE STARTER RELAY (MORE ON THAT LATER) AND HAS BEEN SITTING OUTSIDE AND INSIDE EVER SINCE. I TOLD MYSELF I WILL GET AROUND TO ITS REPLACEMENT...BUT HAVE DECIDED TO PASS THE CAR ALONG. SO STARTING OFF I WILL LIST THE GOOD ...BAD..THE UGLY.. WITH AS MUCH DETAIL AS I CAN.

IF YOU WOULD LIKE MORE PHOTOS OR INFO I HAVE MISSED PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME AT MY E-MAIL THRU HERE AT E-BAY OR MY E-MAIL ... WOLFSBANEII@YAHOO.COM. PLEASE INCLUDE YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS AS E-BAY SOMETIMES HAS A PROBLEM WITH ME TRYING TO SEND MORE PICS THRU A RESPONDING E-MAIL. ON A PURCHASING NOTE, MY LAST SALE I ACCEPTED PAY-PAL AS A PAYMENT SOURCE, I NO LONGER WILL ACCEPT PAY PAL DUE TO LOSING CLOSE TO 200.00 FOR THEIR PROCESSING FEE. SORRY FOR THE INCONVIENCE.

ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION DRIVE TRAIN:
AS STATED THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 440 MAGNUM ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION AND FACTORY GEARING. IT HAS BEEN SITTING A WHILE SO IT WILL NEED A GOOD REFRESHING OF THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION. I NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINE ,TRANSMISSION , OR DIFFERENTAL WHILE THE CAR WAS IN RUNNING ORDER. THE GEARING I BELIEVE ARE 3:23 RATIO AND IS A POSI /SURE GRIP UNIT. IT IS AN A/C CAR BUT WAS NEVER HOOKED UP SINCE THE DAY I HAD IT. THE A/C PUMP IS STILL ON THE CAR BUT THE LINES , DRIER, RECIEVER, EXPANSION VALVE, AND CONDENSOR ARE NOT WITH THE CAR. CAR HAS NOT SEEN HEADERS WITH THE FACTORY UP SWUNG MANIFOLDS STILL ON CAR. DUAL EXHAUST SYSTEM STILL PRETTY MUCH INTACT FROM WHAT I CAN SEE. CARB IS FACTORY ORIGINAL FOUR BARREL SET UP.
THE BAD NEWS AS THIS DEALS WITH THE ENGINE IS THE WIRING HARNESS. THE WIRING FINALLY GAVE OUT AS I WAS ATTEMPTING TO START IT ONE DAY. SMOKE ROLLED FROM UNDER THE HOOD AND THE WIRING AT THE STARTER RELAY BURT AND SEVERAL WIRES WERE MELTED ALONG THE WAY TO THE BULKHEAD CONNECTOR ON THE FIREWALL. I AM NOT SURE HOW FAR THE MELTDOWN GOT AS FAR AS INSIDE THE CAR. I DON'T RECALL ANY FIRES UNDER THE DASH SO IT COULD HAVE STOPPED THERE. BUT IF YOU ARE GOING TO RESTORE THIS... THERE ARE NEW AND MORE RELIABLE REPLACEMENT HARNESSES OUT THERE NOW.

TIRES AND BRAKES :
THE TIRES ARE BRAND NEW... 215/70R/15 MOUNTED ON 15 INCH STEEL RIMS. THE TIRES ALONE ARE WORTH 300.00. THE ORIGINAL RIMS ARE LONG GONE AS I BOUGHT IT WITH AFTERMARKET RIMS INSTALLED AND SOLD THOSE WITH A PREVIOUS CAR. JUST TO SHOW HOW CLOSE TO AN ORIGINAL DODGE CHARGER THIS IS... THE DRIVERS SIDE STILL HAS THE LEFT HANDED THREADED LUG NUTS.
THE BRAKES ARE ORIGINAL 11 INCH DRUMS ALL THE WAY AROUND. IT DOES HAVE POWER BRAKES BUT THE ORIGINAL OWNER SAID THE BOOSTER WASN'T ORIGINAL, BUT IT WORKED FOR ME SO I NEVER REPLACED.

SUSPENSION AND STEERING:
FACTORY FRONT AND REAR SWAY BARS.. LEAST I THINK THE REAR IS ORIGINAL..LOOKS LIKE IT. LEAF SPRINGS IN REAR... TORSION BARS IN FRONT. I NEVER REPLACED THE BALL JOINTS OR TIE ROD ENDS WHILE I HAD THE CAR. IT DROVE STRAIGHT AND DIDNT WANDER , NO NOTICEABLE STRANGE TIRE WEAR SO I RAN IT AS IS. THE SUSPENSION SET UP IS VERY VERY STIFF... THERE IS NO BOUNCE TO THIS CAR AT ALL... VERY TIGHT. POWER STEERING WITH A VERY QUICK AND ULTRA RESPONSIVE WHEEL. I COULD SPIN THE WHEEL WITH JUST MY FINGERTIPS WHEN POWERED UP.

UNDER BODY:
THIS IS A UNI-BODY CAR. THE FRAME RAILS ARE SOLID AS WELL AS AROUND THE TORSION BARS. I UNDERCOATED ALL THE AREAS I COULD REACH WHEN I FIXED IT UP THOSE MANY YEARS AGO. THE FLOOR PANS ARE IN DECENT SHAPE AS FAR AS I KNOW. BUT... THE DRIVERS SIDE I HAD TO PATCHWORK UP AND SHOULD PROBABLY BE REPLACED. THE REAR DRIVERS I DIDNT TOUCH.AT THE TIME I WAS FIXING THE CAR, SHEET METAL WASNT AS AVAILABLE AS IT IS TODAY SO IT WAS TOUGH GETTING METAL REPLACEMENTS. SAME GOES WITH THE TRUNK. THE TRUNK WAS REPLACED WITH A PAN OUT OF A 1968 CHARGER. THERE ARE A FEW SMALL RUST THRUS IN THE TRUNK BUT CAN BE PATCHED OR REPLACED ...UP TO YOU. THE PASSENGERS SIDE FLOOR PANS, FRONT AND REAR I DIDNT REPLACE OR PATCH UP..WERE STILL IN GOOD SHAPE WHEN I WAS GOING THRU THE CAR.

EXTERIOR:
I NEVER HAD ACCESS TO A SANDBLASTER WHEN SO IT DOES HAVE A FEW ISSUES. PAINT IS FACTORY COLOR...NOT FACTORY PAINT. AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICS...THERE ARE BUBBLES AND RUST IN AREAS ABOUT THE CAR. I HAVE MORE DETAILED PICTURES OF THE DAMAGED AREAS IF YOU WOULD LIKE A CLOSER VIEW.
THE DARK GREEN VINYL TOP HAS BUBBLED IN A LOT OF SPOTS SO UNDERLYING DAMAGE TO THE METAL IS EVIDENT. THESE CARS ARE KNOWN FOR RUST IN THE TUNNEL WINDOW CHANNEL. THIS WAS NO DIFFERENT WHEN I GOT THE CAR, I REPAIRED IT BUT TIME HAS BUBBLED THE REPAIRS.
THE GLASS IN THE CAR IS ALL ORIGINAL AND FACTORY TINT. ONLY DAMAGE IS A SMALL BULLS EYE IN THE FRONT WIND SHIELD THAT WAS REPAIRED MANY YEARS AGO. WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR THE OWNER TOLD ME IT LEAKED AND NEEDED REPAIRED BUT I NEVER NOTICED ANY DAMPNESS OR WET CARPETING AT THE TIME. THE CAR WAS NOT EQUIPPED WITH POWER WINDOWS.
FRONT GRILL IS CRACK FREE AND LAST KNOWN THE HEADLIGHT DOORS STILL WORKED. HEADLIGHT DOORS ARE UNDAMAGED AS WELL.
FRONT AND REAR BUMPERS WILL NEED RE CHROMED. THERES NO RUST OR DENTS, BUT AS TYPICAL WITH THE BODY SHAPE, THE HOOD DRIPS ON THE BUMPER AND AFTER A FEW YEARS THE CHROME IS WORN AWAY IN TWO SPOTS. A COMMON PROBLEM ON THESE BODY CARS.
THE CAR IS A STRIPE DELETE CAR WITH JUST THE R/T EMBLEMS ON ITS QUARTER PANELS AND HEADLIGHT DOOR.

INTERIOR:
CLASSIC CHRYSLER DARK GREEN INTERIOR. BUCKET SEATS. VINYL WITH BENCH REAR. REAR SEATS ARE LIKE NEW, PASSENGERS SEAT ALSO LIKE NEW. THE DRIVERS SEAT HAS A FEW RIPS IN THE UPRIGHT BUCKET. THE DASH IS LIKE NEW WITH NO CRACKS OR SPLITS. STEERING WHEEL IS CRACKED IN THE RIM BUT NOT MISSING PIECES. STANDARD DASH SETUP WITH BLACK TRIM AND ROCKER SWITCHES. TO MY KNOWLEDGE ALL THE GAUGES EXCEPT THE CLOCK WERE IN WORKING ORDER. FACTORY RADIO WAS REPLACED WITH A CASSETTE UNIT... YES WAS STATE OF THE ART AT THE TIME. CARPET WILL NEED REPLACED. THE HEADLINER HAS A FEW SMALL HOLES IN IT BUT OTHER WISE IN GREAT SHAPE.

TO SUM IT UP. THIS CAR IS IN NEED OF A GOOD RESTORATION. IT HAS GREAT POTENTIAL IN THE RIGHT HANDS AND WILL MAKE ONE HELL OF A HEAD TURNER WHEN FINISHED. THE BEST THING GOING FOR THIS IS IT IS A NUMBERS MATCHING, ORIGINAL R/T CAR THERES NOT MANY LEFT... AND THEY DONT MAKE THEM ANYMORE. (UNLESS YOU COUNT THE FOUR DOORS..BUT ANYWAY...) I HAVE INCLUDED THE FENDER TAG OPTION AS I HAVE GOTTEN A LOT OF REQUEST FOR ITS NUMBERS AND OPTION. THE PLATE ISNT IN THE BEST OF SHAPE SO I WILL DO MY BEST TO GET THE CODES RIGHT AS FOLLOWS:

VIF V88 26 END
G33 H51 J23? W21 M31 R11
A01 A04 B51 C16 C55 G11
F3 C89? F8 212 246527
386 D32 XS29 L9B 291879

PAYMENT CAN BE MADE BY CASH, CHECK OR MONEY ORDER (CAR DOESNT LEAVE THE PROPERTY UNTIL CHECK OR MONEY ORDER CLEARS..USUALLY 10 DAYS) BANK WIRE TRANSFER. I DO NOT ACCEPT PAY PAL ANYMORE DUE TO ISSUE STATED ABOVE. I AM NOT INTERESTED IN TRADES SO PLEASE DONT OFFER. WHAT I AM ASKING FOR IS WHAT THE STARTING BID IS, PLEASE DONT ASK ME "HOW MUCH WILL I TAKE FOR IT"...ITS ALREADY LISTED. ALL SALES ARE FINAL. I HAVE DISCLOSED ALL THE ISSUES I KNOW OF AND HAVE MORE PICTURES OF THE CAR AVAILABLE TO YOU. IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION PLEASE CONTACT ME. PICK UP OF THE CAR IS THE BUYERS RESPONSABILITY .

THANK YOU AND HAPPY BIDDING, BEST OF LUCK.

Zombie cars roundup: Dodge has sold 3 new Vipers this year

Thu, Jan 6 2022

Car models come and go, but as revealed by monthly sales data, once a car is discontinued, it doesn't just disappear instantly. And in the case of some models, vanishing into obscurity can be a slow, tedious process. That's the case with the 12 cars we have here. All of them have been discontinued, but car companies keep racking up "new" sales with them. There are actually more discontinued cars that are still registering new sales than what we decided to include here. We kept this list to the oldest or otherwise most interesting vehicles still being sold as new, including a supercar. We'll run the list in alphabetical order, starting with *drumroll* ... BMW 6 Series: 55 total sales BMW quietly removed the 6 Series from the U.S. market during the 2019 model year. It had been available in three configurations, a hardtop coupe, a convertible and a sleek four-door coupe-like shape. Â BMW i8: 18 total sales We've always had a soft spot for the BMW i8, despite the fact that it never quite fit into a particular category. It was sporty, but nowhere near as fast as similarly-priced competitors. It looked very high-tech and boasted a unique carbon fiber chassis design and a plug-in hybrid powertrain, but wasn't really designed for maximum efficiency or maximum performance. Still, the in-betweener was very cool to look at and drive, and 18 buyers took one home over the course of 2021. Â Chevy Impala: 750 total sales The Impala represented classic American tastes at a time when American tastes were shifting away from soft-riding sedans with big interior room and trunk space and into higher-riding crossovers. A total of 750 sales were inked last year. Â Chrysler 200: 15 total sales The Chrysler 200 was actually a pretty nice sedan, with good looks and decent driving dynamics let down by a lack of roominess, particularly in the back seat. Of course, as we said regarding the Chevy Impala, the number of Americans in the market for sedans is rapidly winding down, and other automakers are following Chrysler's footsteps in canceling their slow-selling four-doors. Even if Chrysler never really found its footing in the ultra-competitive midsize sedan segment, apparently dealerships have a few leftover 2017 200s floating around. And for some reason, 15 buyers decided to sign the dotted line to take one of these aging sedans home last year.

SpeedKore carbon-fiber 1970 Dodge Charger packs a 996-hp Demon engine

Tue, Oct 30 2018

SpeedKore Performance does some pretty neat things with carbon fiber. SEMA is always the place to show off new and interesting builds, and SpeedKore has a few new offerings on display. We talked about the lightweight carbon fiber 2018 Dodge Demon late last week, but now that SEMA 2018 is in full swing, we've got a look at something even cooler, an all-carbon, Demon-powered 1970 Dodge Charger "Evolution." SpeedKore Performance is based in Wisconsin and has been churning out SEMA showstoppers for years. In addition to the Demon, take a look at this Shelby GT350R the shop modified a few years back. The Charger Evolution is named so because it further modifies the SpeedKore Charger "Tantrum" that was used in the " Fast and Furious" films. That car used a carbon composite body and was fitted with a 9.0-liter Mercury Racing twin-turbo engine making an absurd 1,650 horsepower. The Evolution might be down on power — only 996 horses thanks to a modified Demon crate engine Â— but the goal was to create something a little more usable than the Tantrum. Upgrades include a smaller supercharger pulley, larger fuel injectors, a custom cold-air intake, stainless steel headers and a custom exhaust with SLP mufflers. There's also a Dailey Engineering dry sump, upgraded oil cooler, and Saldana radiator. It's also lighter, thanks to even more carbon fiber. SpeedKore had a goal to get the '70 Charger to about 3,200 pounds. To get there, the Evolution employs carbon-fiber bodywork, an aluminum floor, a steel roll cage and a new 2x3-inch steel box frame. SpeedKore's autoclave is large enough to bake a one-piece roof, hood and quarter panels. The bare bodywork has been finished with a clear coat to help prevent fading. The Evolution uses billet aluminum for the door handles, fuel cap and grille, all finished in a bronze-nickel coating to pair with the HRE wheels. In addition to the floor, aluminum was used for the firewall, transmission tunnel and radiator shroud. To slow the Charger down, it uses Brembo brakes with six-piston calipers up front and four-piston calipers in the rear. The suspension uses Penske adjustable coilovers while Michelin Pilot Sport 2 tires wrap 19x10-inch front wheels and 20x12-inch rear wheels. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Federal grand jury issues subpoenas to U.S. FCA dealers

Wed, Jul 27 2016

Despite an attempt to clarify and backtrack, it seems the investigation into Fiat Chrysler Automobile's false sales reporting is picking up steam. According to Automotive News, FCA dealers and regional offices have received subpoenas ordering them to supply documents and testimony to a grand jury in Detroit. Of course, the dealers are objecting to the request. They claim the subpoenas are too broad and would require them to hand over too much personal information, like personal phone numbers of dealer employees going back years. The group wants to make it clear that FCA has clarified its sales reporting and that the issue is with the manufacturer, not dealers. The dealers say that FCA employee records and testimony should be enough. It's rumored that a dealer group is the one that sparked the investigation in the first place. FCA confirmed on July 18 that it indeed was under investigation by a number of federal agencies. Although they've clarified their position regarding sales reporting, the fraud investigation continues full steam. Related Video:
