1973 Dodge Dart Swinger, 318,matching numbers,93,250 original miles,all original glass, ice cold factory ac,power steering, shoulder harnesses, excellent dash,door panels, steering wheel. Has AM radio that sounds crisp and clear,gauges, lights and buzzers work like new, except the gas gauge needs new sensor. This car drives like new, brakes straight sounds cool, this is truly a great driving car, I just drove it to Arizona and back was a great ride and cold ac, with plenty of smooth, strong power. No rattles, noises of any kind.
One owner car that was stored since 1989 in climate controlled garage after owner had passed away. I purchased it last year and had Mopar specialist COMPLETELY go through this cool car. New everything including brakes, tires, shocks, rebuilt carb, all fluids changed,battery,freeze plugs,tune up,filters, diff fluid,fuel lines,brake lines,vacuum lines etc, etc.. No expense spared, all work done correctly.I'm sure I forgot some things but you get the idea.
This car is a time capsule SURVIVOR, still wears original paint and interior,has some bumps and bruises, and interior is showing its age, but looks great with brand new BFG Goodrich radial tires with original Mopar Dog Dish hubcaps, the original hull hubcaps are included. Look at the trunk pictures absolutely RUST FREE, with all factory markings, etc., fantastic survivor or original reference car. The bilge sheet is stuck to driver floorboard, and didn't want to try to remove, have owners manual tire jack and handle, need a spare though. The weatherstripping is soft and intact and subtle, trunk and floor pans are unbelievable! Wiring is flexible and like new as is the dash, steering wheel, etc.. I saved the old parts. During the job my mechanic found that the original matching tranny would not go into drive, reverse, low gear, were fine so my mechanic had the same f4 tranny at his shop and was installed in the car, already rebuilt, The original tranny comes with this car. This is a very rare car, there can't be many as original and as nice as this, it is a great cruiser with great street presence, VERY LOW RESERVE.

2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat [w/videos]
Tue, 22 Jul 2014Darrell Waltrip once said, "If the lion didn't bite the tamer every once in a while, it wouldn't be exciting." The sentiment behind that aphorism is causing my adrenal gland to wake up as Dodge and SRT drivers and engineers - somber-faced to a man - give me the track talk that will precede my driving the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT on the circuit at Portland International Raceway. PIR might not be Daytona, and the 707-horsepower Challenger Hellcat might seem tame to a legend like ol' Jaws, but there's a not-small part of me that's thinking about how hard Dodge's fire-breathing kitty might bite.
Just a few hours previous, I'd gotten behind the wheel of the Hellcat for the first time, letting its hyperbole-spitting, supercharged V8 Hemi pull me yieldingly through Portland's morning commuter traffic. Lulled into a cocky certainty by the Challenger's good manners at low speed, I drove the throttle just a hair too deep, too fast when I ran on to the highway ramp. For just an instant the rear tires were utterly drenched in torque, and the back end of the big Dodge loosened up like a drift car on a wet track. Throttle steer lives at the fleeting whim of your right foot in this car.
It was no big thing to lay off the gas and pull the Hellcat back in line as I entered the highway, but the incident did get me to thinking: What will this car do to me on a road course?
Mopar rolls out new Scat Packages for Dodge Challenger, Charger and Dart
Tue, 05 Nov 2013Dodge buyers looking for that extra performance edge, take note: Mopar is bringing back the Scat Pack. Announced at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas today, the new Scat Packages will be available in three stages for the Challenger, Charger and Dart starting next spring.
Upgrades for the Charger and Challenger equipped with the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 engine include a
new cold-air intake and cat-back exhaust, as well as a remapped ECU. Upgrade to the Scat Package 2 and you get a new camshaft, and the Scat Package 3 tosses in ported and polished heads and hi-flow headers. Upgrades for the Dart GT with the smaller 2.4-liter, four-cylinder Tigershark engine with six-speed manual transmission start with a cold-air intake, short-throw shifter and upgraded brakes. The second stage kicks in a remapped ECU and cat-back exhaust, while the Scat Package 3 for the Dart gives you even bigger brakes, an adjustable suspension and sway bars front and rear.
