For your consideration,

1968 dodge dart HURST HEMI LO23 Replica.  This vehicle has received a nut and bolt rotisserie restoration. Underside was done in correct stone grey single stage paint, allowing the underside of car to be wiped down and kept at a mirror under the car status. Fiberglass front end, acid dipped doors, paired with an always rust free laser straight body were treated to the ultimate show car period correct paint job.  That's correct, CANDY APPLE RED TRANS LACE PAINT JOB OVER  THE DEEPEST SHINIEST JET BLACK I'VE EVER SEEN!  Base/clear beauty! Period correct HURST DECALS ON HOOD, DECKLID, DOORS ,ETC.  Decals are removable, but don't do it.....this thing gets so much attention it causes traffic accidents from rubbernecking. The tires are a one off pair of pie crust retro drag slicks, made out of solid white rubber!  Not a coating, it's solid white rubber, to where the redline divides the black rubber. Hurst drag slicks made these tires at my request, they said they will not make another set, too difficult .....so these are the only set in the world.....ever.   A complete set of traditional drag slicks front and rear mounted to identical cragars also go with the car..they are immaculate.  That's 2 complete sets of tires and rims.   Engine has only enough miles to break in and dial it in.  Dyno 654 on pump, 712 on 104 octane. Currently street legal on pump gas. Registered and insured. Battery mounted in trunk correctly, trunk is immaculate.

NHTSA investigating Chrysler for airbags, ignition switches

Wed, 18 Jun 2014

Chrysler is being targeted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in a pair of actions that focus on over 1.2 million Jeeps, minivans and crossovers.
The first is a "preliminary investigation" that focuses on an airbag issue afflicting the Jeep Commander built in model years 2006 and 2007 and Grand Cherokee from 2005 to 2006. In total, 700,000 vehicles could potentially be affected. It's not entirely clear what the airbag issue is, with The Detroit Free Press simply stating that the restraint systems in the affected Jeeps may be "faulty."
The other investigation is what's called a "recall query" and it covers a problem that General Motors should be familiar with. In this case, there could be a problem with the ignition switches of 525,000 vehicles, ranging from 2008 to 2010 Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans, to the 2008 to 2010 Dodge Journey crossover. Again, it's not entirely clear what sort of behavior prompted the 32 complaints that NHTSA has received on these vehicles.

Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango still catching fire after recall

Thu, May 7 2015

Automakers issue recalls all the time. It's part of the cost of doing business. We just assume that once the recall has been carried out, the problem in question has been fixed. But that's not always the case, as this latest investigation being undertaken by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration goes to show. The problem stems back to a recall issued by Chrysler last summer. It revolved rather the sun visor in the SUVs it makes at its Jefferson North Assembly Plant – specifically, the screw affixing the sun visor could end up rubbing against the wiring for the lamp in the vanity mirror, potentially causing an electrical short and even a fire. 62 such short circuits, 38 fires and three injuries reported, prompting Chrysler to recall nearly 900,000 units of the 2011-2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango (over 650,000 of them in the United States). The plastic spacers they installed to rectify the problem, however, may not have done the trick. Eight reports (but none involving injuries) have been filed with the NHTSA regarding the same issue recurring, spurring the government agency to open a new investigation into the matter. If deemed necessary, the NHTSA could ask FCA to issue another recall to fix the issue again, which we may necessitate the installation of a fuze to prevent any such the electric short. Related Video: INVESTIGATION Subject : Headliner Fires Date Investigation Opened: MAY 01, 2015 Date Investigation Closed: Open NHTSA Action Number: RQ15003 Component(s): ELECTRICAL SYSTEM , INTERIOR LIGHTING Manufacturer: Chrysler (FCA US LLC) SUMMARY: On July 1st, 2014 Chrysler (FCA US LLC) issued safety recall 14V-391 to remedy a wiring-related fire hazard on the headliner of approximately 661,888 model year (MY) 2011-2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango vehicles manufactured between January 5, 2010 and December 11, 2013. The recall was in response to the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) investigation EA14-001 during which data provided by Chrysler indicates that the fire is caused by an electrical short in the vanity lamp wiring for either one of the sun visors mounted on the vehicle. The sun visors are mounted to the roof of the vehicle through the headliner with three metal screws.
