Up for sale is my 1971 Dodge Dart Swinger. This is a low mileage (approximately 35,000), NEVER rusty survivor with one repaint. It was originally a 318/904/7.25 car. I bought it 100% stock. This is now a very fast street/strip car with an original style appearance. The weatherstripping is good, the doors don't sag, windows go up and down, etc. Paint is nice, shiny, not cracked. Not Barrett Jackson, but a LOT better than Maaco. Reserve price is lower than the cost of the parts!

The engine is a 5.9 Magnum disguised to look like an LA 360, 904 with transbrake, A body 8.75 rear end, Cal tracs and monoleafs, calvert shocks. It has been converted to the larger bolt pattern wheels (5*4.5) and front disk brakes from Stainless Steel Brakes. It has new fuel lines, new brake lines, new gas tank, new exhaust, new vinyl top and on and on and on. All the best stuff. 

This car has run a best time of 11.70 @ 113 on an 8" slick. Don't let that fool you though, this is not a pure race car, and it is a blast to drive on the street (it has mufflers and is not ridiculously loud). It is almost zero maintenance (hydraulic roller cam -not solid). It gets lots of attention at that shows and the track.

If racing is your thing, there is a ton of performance left in this car. It is tuned for street-strip and it is full wieght with the entire original interior.

Incomplete parts list:
Engine:
1999 5.9 Magnum engine.
Hughes Iron Ram heads (drilled for LA intakes)
RPM Air Gap intake
Mallory Electronic ignition (with two step, rev limit, spark retard, etc)
Kevko oil pan

Custom Comp hydraulic roller cam (nice sound, but VERY streetable)
Hooker Comp headers with Darkside ceramic coating.
TTI X-pipe with Ultraflow mufflers into dumps ( have TTI tailpipes also)
New radiator and electric fan (have original radiator/fan setup)
Carter mechanical fuel pump 
Cloyes billet double roller timing chain

This engine made 332 rwhp on a Dynojet dyno.

Drivetrain:
904 Transmission
Basically every trick from the A&A catalog except it has a stock drum (I have over $2000 in parts in this transmission).
A&A manual transbrake valve body
Cast aluminum pan
AN fittings and B&M stacked plate cooler
Ultimate Converter Concepts 9” torque converter (Streetable 3500 stall) ($900 new)
Dynotech custom Aluminum racing driveshaft
A body 8.75 rear with Moser Axles, Detroit Locker and Motive 3.91 gear.

Suspension/ chassis:
Calvert Racing shocks (front and rear) 
Cal-tracs and monoleafs
Custom subframe connectors
Custom driveshaft loop (removable with 2 bolts)
Stainless Steel Brakes front disk brake kit
Rebuilt manual steering box


This is not a cobbled together hack-work kids hot-rod car. This is a solid low mile original Mopar. The modifications are well thought out and expertly installed. Everything has been done to make the minimum impact on the car's originality. I have the original window sticker, and lots of other cool documentation. Two fender tags.

I have a photobucket gallery with more pics. For some reason, Ebay won't let me put the link in this listing, so please ask if interested.

I have a clear title in my name. The car is also for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. I will work with the buyer to physically get the car on a transport, but shipping is the buyer's responsibility. This is a no disappointments car, but I highly recommend checking it out in person - I am available for in-person appointments.

PLEASE DON'T BID IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE CASH!

Please send me a message if you'd like to learn more. I can provide my phone number to interested buyers.

Thanks for looking!

ATTENTION BIDDERS:


Due to the actions of a few, I am forced to run this auction like a kindergarten class.

IF YOU HAVE LESS THAN 5 FEEDBACK 
contact me BEFORE bidding. I will require your name, your phone number and will want to actually speak to you on the phone BEFORE you bid.  OR YOUR BID WILL BE DELETED. THERE WILL BE NO WARNINGS.

This is a real auction, by a real guy with a REAL car for sale. I will only deal with REAL bidders with REAL money. If you aren't willing to deal with that, don't bid. 

The reserve on this auction is $11,750, and it is worth every damn penny and then some. It is supposed to be $12,750, but for some reason it isn't. This is potentially lucky for a REAL buyer.

If you are thinking about bidding on this car and actually want it, this is your last chance. After all these games and garbage, this car will not be listed on Ebay again, ever. 

I am happy to talk to REAL buyers with REAL money. If you are not a REAL buyer with REAL money, don't waste my time.

FURTHER, if there is a real buyer out there who wins the auction, I highly recommend contacting me IMMEDIATELY after the end of this auction.

2013 Dodge Dart gets all Moparized

Fri, 08 Feb 2013

Last year, Chrysler announced it would be offering more than 150 Mopar parts and accessories on the 2013 Dodge Dart, and we got a look at some of these parts firsthand at the Chicago Auto Show. Showing off all the optional parts at once would surely create a gaudy monstrosity, so Chrysler chose to equip this particular Dart GT with just a handful of Mopar goodies, which still gave the car a nice and tasteful custom look that is available straight from the dealership (and with a full warranty, too).
Decked out in a factory color called Header Orange Clear Coat - also a very appropriate show car hue - this car added exterior styling parts such as the vented, carbon fiber hood, the bolt-on front chin spoiler and a matte black decklid spoiler. Looking inside the car, you'd think the red-accented interior is part of the Mopar parts bin, too, but this is actually what the standard Dart GT cabin will look like when it goes on sale.

Travis Pastrana signs with Dodge for another year, brings partner Bryce Menzies [w/video]

Sun, 14 Apr 2013

Dodge and SRT Motorsports announced that the Dodge Dart will be returning for its sophomore season of the Global Rallycross Championship with a two-car team fielded by Pastrana Racing. Travis Pastrana drove his GRC Dart to victory lane in the fourth race of the car's inaugural season, and his race team is looking for even more success with the addition of off-road racer Bryce Menzies behind the wheel of the second car.
The 2013 GRC season kicks off on April 21 in Brazil with plenty of dirt-spewing, ramp-jumping action. Scroll down for a video from the cars' main sponsor, Red Bull, and a press release from Chrysler.

Mopar '13 Dart priced from $25,485*

Wed, 12 Jun 2013

For the past few years, Chrysler's Mopar in-house tuning division has created its own one-off versions of several cars in the automaker's portfolio, including the Mopar '10 Challenger, Mopar '11 Charger and Mopar '12 300. For 2013, the black-and-blue up-do has been given to the new Dart compact, and Chrysler has announced that the limited-edition sedan is now available for order, priced from $25,485, not including *$995 for destination.
Like previous Mopar edition vehicles, the Dart is painted in a signature Pitch Black exterior with an offset blue racing stripe. The sedan sits seven millimeters lower to the ground and gets visual add-ons like a chin spoiler, decklid spoiler and rear diffuser, along with gloss black 18-inch alloy wheels.
Performance wise, the Dart's 1.4-liter MultiAir inline four-cylinder engine remains, producing 160 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque, mated to a six-speed manual transmission. The Mopar car gets a sport-tuned exhaust system along with revised power steering calibration and beefier brakes.
