Ok here is a deal.  this is a 1971 dodge dart swinger owned by a mopar person.  it (was) going to be cloned to look like a 340 swinger.  it is an original citron yellow car.  fender tag, build sheet, clear title.  registered in the Chrysler registry through galien govier as being #8 of #30 cars produced like this at the Windsor Ont. Canada Plant.  these cars were also built in LA, as well.  this car is a 3 owner car me being the third.  it originally was ordered at North Glenn Dodge in Denver Colorado.  I have the complete history of this car from start to finish w/ names and dates.  what has been done so far?  well this is all I have done so far.  new tires, new shocks, suspension front to back has been rebuilt.  torsion bars upgraded to the .087 340 bars, added front sway bar, new front manual disc brakes, upgraded rear drums, 8 3/4 rear changed to 3.23 sure grip, electronic ignition added, recurved distribitor, new wires, plugs, new dual exhausts w/340 manifolds!  power steering added, dash pad restored, dash benzels restored, rim blow steering wheel restored.  added factory am/fm radio and converted it to stereo, infinity rear speakers, new mopar battery of course!  new wheels w/large bolt pattern, rear axels changer out to large bolt pattern as well, transmission rebuilt, radiator professionally recored to lager cores and tight rows, cooling is great! also has the complete 340 clutch fan setup w/ shroud.


parts included are everything needed to complete the "340 cloning" including the following: 1972 thermoquad carb, correct factory kick down linkage, factory twin hood scoops, w/340 call outs, also included is a new rear package tray with jute, new legendary seat covers for front and rear, new legendary headliner, new grillea, and probably more just can't remember everything.  

what is left to do?  well nothing if you want to just drive it. it is a solid car and a great driver. if you want to take it to the next level then add all the included parts and finish it!  

the bad: rear main seal leaks a little, it is a 15 footer.  paint is not bad but could be better imho.  body is solid but taround the rear quaters there is a little bondo although not much.  could be patched.  rear drums are alittle strong need to have a smaller wheel cylinder added to lessen effects of rear brakes.  could use new front valence,  other than that nothing that come to mind....tons of receipts and paperwork included!

Ranking Dodge's Charger Hellcat with the fastest sedans in the world

Thu, 14 Aug 2014



"This is a car that most brands would never bring to market." - Tim Kuniskis
Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis had reason to be confident, perhaps even a bit cocky at the reveal of his brand's newest halo car, the 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat. As he said simply, it's the "quickest, fastest and most powerful sedan in the world."

Chrysler extends fuel tank warranties on LX cars, NHTSA ends probe

Tue, 18 Feb 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has ended its investigation of 153,817, 5.7-liter and 6.1-liter Hemi V8-powered 2006 Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Dodge Magnum models after reports of stalling. Chrysler has responded by granting a lifetime warranty on the fuel tanks for these vehicles.
NHTSA received 299 reports of engines stalling while the models were stopped or driving at low speeds, and began an investigation. The government agency found that the control valve shutoff float in the V8s' 19-gallon fuel tank could malfunction if the fuel had too high of an ethanol content. In many cases, the valve would break in the open position, allowing the tank to be overfilled, which would then cause the cars to stall. However, there were no accidents reported, and the vehicles could be restarted immediately.
There will not be a recall on these vehicles because, "the condition represents a low risk to motor vehicle safety and is adequately addressed by Chrysler's extended warranty," NHTSA said to The Detroit News.
