Up for sale is this 1970 "low millage" H-Code Dodge Dart . It originally came with a 340 4 speed but a 360 727 automatic was just installed the spring of 2013 . It still retains the original 4 speed pedal's , hump , and column so if someone wanted to go back to a four speed it could be very easily done . It even still has the original reverse indicator light on the dash that came factory on the 4 speed cars . It also still has the original 8 3/4 rear with 3:55 gear ratio , 4 piston disc brakes , rally wheels , rally dash , etc. . I "do not" have the original 340 motor or four speed trans , I never did . I have owned this car since the late 80's early 90's and it was put in storage in 2001 . After a lot of work was done last year It was then registered last Aug ( 2013 ) and driven and enjoyed until Oct when it was put away again for the winter . It was brought back out again this past spring and is currently registered and being enjoyed again . This car runs and drives great ! It gets "LOTS" of attention and compliments where ever it go's . I don't even have to pull it out of my garage for people to stop and want to look at it . The 360 has a "mild" roller cam that idles nice and is pretty darn quick but it is not a race car the way it is , It's perfect to take to car shows and cruise nights . But if you did want a race car then all you would have to do is put a bigger cam in it because everything else is there . There is way to much put into this car last year alone to list , so here is just some of what's been done, new Viper Blue paint , 360 roller cam motor with eddy intake and 4 bbl. carb , Headers , fresh 727 transmission , Gas Tank and sending unit , New rug , sound system , etc. , etc , etc . This car is extremely NICE now but there a just a couple of small and inexpensive things to get it to the next level such as the headliner is showing it's age and inside the trunk still has the original B5 blue paint that you could spray with trunk coating to make it look nicer . It has a race style lightweight glass six pack hood on it now that we put on in the early 90's but I also still have the original steel duel scoop hood from this car but it was not painted with the car and is not included in the price . But could be available to go with the car for an added cost . I'm not sure what else I can say about this car so if anyone has any questions please feel free to ask . I have described this car to the best of my ability and this car is being sold "as is" with no warranty and the buyer is responsible for all shipping cost and arrangements . Buyer has seven days from end of auction to have car picked up . Deposit of $500 is required within 48 hours of auction ending and full payment is required within three days of auction ending .

Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat vs. Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 in latest Head 2 Head

Fri, Jan 30 2015

"Olympian" is one of the terms we use to signify the greatest height, the seat of the gods. Yet Mt. Olympus is the second-highest peak in the Balkans ranges, overshadowed by the crest at Musala in Bulgaria's Rila mountains. Both great heights, but one is a little higher. That's how we get the Olympian Chevy Camaro ZL1 pitched at the Musalic Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat in Motor Trend's latest episode of Head 2 Head. The side-by-side spec sheet is filled with farcical numbers. For the ZL1, that's a 6.2-liter V8 with 580 horsepower, 556 pound-feet of torque, a 4,051-pound curb weight, 0-to-60 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds, a quarter-mile time of 12.2 seconds and a base price of just $57,800. Opposing that, the Hellcat wrings out its 6.2-liter V8 for 707 hp, 650 lb-ft of torque, weighs 4,449 pounds, does the quarter in 11.7 seconds and has a base price of just $60,990. Except in the case of the Hellcat, when Motor Trend put it on the dyno the machine spit out a reading of 672 hp and 606 lb-ft at the wheels. If there's a 10-percent driveline loss through those beefed-up internals and heavy-duty eight-speed transmission, that means the Hellcat is actually rated at about 750 horsepower and 700 lb-ft. But once they get put on a closed-off strip of coast road in Northern California, there are only a few strands of hair between their respective performances. That's not the case for they sensations provide; host Jonny Lieberman calls one of them, "One of the most incredible cars ever made," and says, "It changes everything." Watch the video above to see who got the verdict and how. Related Video:

Watch this Dodge Viper get clawed to death

Tue, 07 Jan 2014

There's a scene in the James Bond movie, Casino Royale, where Daniel Craig's Agent 007 is captured by villain Le Chiffre, played by Mads Mikkelsen. Le Chiffre tortures Bond in a scene that is rather difficult to watch (especially for blokes) and impossible to describe on these digital pages (Google at your own risk). This video is the automotive equivalent of the Casino Royale torture scene.
It shows a Dodge Viper - a late, first-generation GTS judging by the center-exit exhausts - getting assaulted by a giant piece of heavy equipment. The large claw shows no mercy on the V10-powered sports car, rending its muscular curves into pieces and then running it over, just for good measure. It's a painful video to watch (and hear!), made worse because we don't know what the Viper did to deserve such a fate. About a third of the way through the video, the cameraman indicates that the man with the claw is a new operator from Chrysler, and it appears there may be some fire damage, but beyond that, we don't have much to go on.
Scroll down for the video but be warned, it isn't for the faint of heart.

FCA's shifter fiasco proves novel gear selectors are a bad idea

Tue, Feb 9 2016

What's wrong with PRNDL? Why are automakers trying to overly complicate the simple task of selecting gears? If there's any lesson to learn from the recent news that NHTSA is investigating 853,000 Fiat Chrysler vehicles over its problematic gear selectors, it's that the trend of fancy shifters needs to stop. Now. Last year, NHTSA opened an investigation into Jeep Grand Cherokee models, and has now expanded this probe to include the 2012-14 Chrysler 300 and Dodge Charger. The problem? The shifter – assembled by ZF Â– is confusing for many drivers. "Testing ... indicates that operation of the (electronic) shifter is not intuitive and provides poor tactile and visual feedback to the driver, increasing the potential for unintended gear selection," a NHTSA document states. More than 100 crashes and over a dozen injuries are linked to this problem, according to The Detroit Free Press. To us, the problem isn't just limited to FCA. These unnecessarily novel gear selectors are spreading like wildfire across the industry. Honda and Acura use a weird pushbutton setup. Lincolns have buttons on the dashboard. Jaguar's shifter electronically raises out of the center console. Mercedes uses a stalk with up-for-Reverse, down-for-Drive, push-for-Neutral arrangement. And what the hell is BMW thinking with its M cars? FCA has since abandoned the confusing shifters in question. The 300, Charger, and Grand Cherokee now use the rotary shift dial that's quickly proliferating across the company's brands. Simplistic gear selectors might not be sexy, but no one ever complained about not being able to find the right gear in a Hyundai Sonata. What's most interesting is that this NHTSA investigation could push FCA Â– and possibly other automakers Â– to redesign vehicle functions that otherwise operate as designed. Just because most people will never have a problem putting a Dodge Charger in Reverse doesn't mean there isn't a flaw with the design. But perhaps a more simplistic solution Â– good ol' PRNDL Â– would have prevented these issues from the start.
