1974 Dodge Charger R/t 440 Chrysler Mopar Muscle Car Hemi on 2040-cars
Cookeville, Tennessee, United States
Up for sale/auction is this 1974 Dodge Charger. We are selling for a friend of ours that is out of the country. We own a restoration shop here in Cookeville TN. The car came to us with the intent to sell. The car had some mechanical problems and much has been done to improve. The complete front sub frame was dropped out and the front suspension was totally rebuilt The car was an original small block car and a new rebuilt 440 from Jasper Engines was installed before we took possession of vehicle. The front suspension rebuild was a big project but done correctly. The carburetor was freshened up. The big block runs good and has plenty of power. New tires were added to the front on July 9th 2014. The body is in good shape and is rust free and presents it self well. When we took for test drives there are always Thumbs Up. The odometer reads 30501 but with any 40 year old car that has been modified the mileage is unknown. The interior is a custom stitch job and look presentable. There are some minor issues with car yet. One problem might be the rear gear ratio. We don't know the exact gearing but speedometer is reads 10-15 mph off. If we were to guess, 4:11's are in the rear drive. The rear drive is a little loose and could use a rebuild. The interior problems consist of worn out rear view mirror, one missing kick panel, and the top of door lock knob broke off. There are some wiring issues but the car is very driveable and functional. Wth some more TLC this car would be a sweet cruiser. There is an easy reserve on the car and any and all questions will be answered through eBay email.

Chrysler minivans under investigation for stalling after fuel refill
Wed, 10 Sep 2014According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, at least one man has reported that his 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan stalled unexpectedly on the highway shortly after being refueled. The unidentified man who contacted NHTSA regarding the issue cited as many as eight similar instances reported by other drivers.
NHTSA has announced that it will launch an inquiry into this issue, which could affect as many as 160,000 minivans from Dodge and Chrysler that were sold in 2007 (or more, if a problem is found that extends to additional models years, we'd assume). As of yet, there's no formal investigation, let alone a recall, on these vans, as the agency is merely determining if further action is needed.
Two months ago, Chrysler recalled nearly 700,000 vehicles, the majority of which were minivans, from the 2008-2010 model years to replace ignition switches after an investigation found that their weak springs and detent positions could fool a driver into thinking the car was in the "Run" position, when it's actually in the "Accessory" position.
Dodge bringing revamped Challenger, Charger to Big Apple
Mon, 07 Apr 2014The 2014 New York Auto Show will be a big one for Dodge, as the brand has announced that refreshed versions of the 2015 Challenger and 2015 Charger will debut at the show. This is a particularly big deal for the two-door Challenger which, visually, has remained unchanged since is burst back onto the scene in 2008 and helped reignite the muscle car wars.
As a sort of hint, this announcement was accompanied by the picture you see above - the Super Bee logo in the Challenger's new instrument cluster. According to Dodge, the New York debut of a new "powertrain combination" - possibly with the high-output Hellcat V8 - will leave enthusiasts "abuzz."
As for the Charger, Dodge is promising a full redesign that should be a significant departure from the blunt, angry looks of the current model. At this point, there's no indication that the Challenger's new powertrain could be fitted to the Charger, although considering how mechanically similar these two vehicles have been, it doesn't seem outside the realm of possibility.
2015 Dodge Viper getting small increase in power
Tue, 29 Jul 2014The Viper is used to being the most powerful car in the Dodge and SRT stables, but the arrival of the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat means that's no longer the case. The serpentine supercar is, however, reportedly getting a small boost in output for 2015, amounting to all of five horsepower.
The increase was uncovered by Road & Track courtesy of the SAE J1349 certification process to which Detroit's Big Three automakers submit themselves and which reports the Viper's output at 645 hp instead of the 640 it was rated at until now. There are a hundred factors that could have contributed to the relatively mild boost in output (best guess? nothing at all changed...), but we doubt anyone's going to complain about some extra horses under the hood.
The five-horsepower boost brings the Viper that much closer to the 650-hp Chevy Corvette Z06, not to mention the 707-hp Hellcat, but the Viper's impressive power-to-weight ratio ought to mean it'll have little problem keeping up in a straight line - which is just one of the reasons why Chrysler won't shoe-horn the Hellcat into the Viper: as R&T points out, the supercharged engine is too heavy and the blower makes it too tall to fit in the Viper's engine bay.
