Dodge "poison" Dart Hemi 472ci, Built 727, Gear Vendor O/d, Currie Dana 60, A/c on 2040-cars
Bayonne, New Jersey, United States
Your chance to own TV's "WRECKS to RICHES" final and best build of season one!
Named the "POISON DART” during the filming of Discovery Channel’s series “Wrecks to Riches” in 2005. Built by the famous Barry White and crew of Barry's Speed Shop SRRC in Corona, CA (supermusclecar.com/cars/dart/dart.html) and Ron Jenkins of Magnumforce Race Car Fabrication (magnumforce.com/magnumforce_tubular_kmember.htm); both very well known for quality craftsmanship. During the build, Rikki Rockett of the 80's rock band "Poison" autographed the center console and the "Poison Dart" name was born! Started the transformation as a discarded 1969
Dart from Nevada with a solid, rust-free body that was stripped, blocked and
painted a beautiful House of Kolor - Molly Orange with a matte black hood/scoop
and trunk stripe. When it came to power, Barry replaced the stock 318ci for a Mopar
Performance 472ci modern day Hemi! To deal with the extra heft and grunt,
Barry called in Ron Jenkins to install one of his custom a-body tubular/racing
k-members and weld in structural reinforcements and sub frame connectors to tie
it all together. QA1 adj front and rear shocks with front coil-overs handle suspension

In addition to the "filmed" $66,000 auction price, the previous owner spent an additional $14,000 by upgrading many of the off-the-shelf parts such as the exhaust with a fully hand welded work of art which included custom welded jet-hot coated headers, 3" custom welded stainless pipes with Magnaflow x-pipe and polished mufflers which not only looks awesome but sounds grrrreat and tucked up very nicely! He also added a much appreciated Gear Vendors Overdrive unit for effortless highway travel, cleaned up all the wiring, added subtle but necessary exterior touches and finally a set of Mooneyes tach, oil, volts and temp gauges. Since I've owned it,
I spent many hours and approximately $7,500 perfecting an already close
to perfect build. Most notably, the stock 727 torqueflight and B&M street
converter were not up to the task. I chose Level 10 performance transmissions in Hamburg, NJ (levelten.com) to custom build the 727 to be a 900hp capable
"bullet-proof" unit with a brand new billet 9" 3,200 stall
converter that really lays the power down. Last but not least, I'm very
particular about a clean and crisp throttle response so I contacted Hemi Specialist,
John Arruzza (arruzzahighperformance.com) who jetted and flowed a brand new pair of Edelbrock Thunder Series
AVS 650cfm carbs specifically for my application as well as a fully blueprinted
distributor. The end result is a crisp throttle response and excellent light to
heavy throttle transition that's smooth and precise. All this labor and attention to detail translates to a truly "turn key" custom built “Super Muscle Car” with all the top of the line parts, modern day comforts and the high quality fit and finish one expects from a “one off” custom muscle machine of this caliber and price point forever immortalized on film! I have numerous magazines that feature the Poison Dart as well as the original framed hand drawn rendering with the autographs of all those involved in the build as well as a DVD of the episode and a vender presentation sign for car shows that goes with the sale.

Chrysler's Woodward Dream Cruise festivities include Ram concept truck debut
Tue, 13 Aug 2013The streets will be crowded next weekend along Woodward Avenue in Royal Oak, Michigan for the 19th Annual Woodward Dream Cruise. As part of the run-up to the festivities, Chrysler has announced that all of its brands - Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Ram, Fiat, SRT and Mopar - will bring along their latest vehicles. Also included will be a collection of classic American cars and various activities for attendees at the official Chrysler location on the corner of Woodward and 13 Mile Road.
Special to this year, Ram brand director Bob Hegbloom and head of design John Dehner will unveil a Ram concept truck on Saturday. Chrysler will also bring Ryan Friedlinghaus of West Coast Customs fame along to show off a few custom Chrysler-made vehicles of his own. Fans of the brand on Facebook will get the chance to virtually customize a vehicle from the automaker's portfolio, with the winner getting their dream car built for them by Chrysler. Pretty cool stuff, no?
As in past years, Ford and General Motors will have an official presence at the event as well, and you can expect to see plenty of cars of all makes and models from all parts of the globe. The madness starts this Friday, August 16, from 4:30 PM to 10 PM, with the main event taking place on Saturday, from 9 AM to 9 PM. For more details on the show, including events and their times, check out the press release below.
FCA adds Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to Uconnect
Mon, Jan 4 2016Fiat Chrysler Automobiles has three showcases ready for this week's Consumer Electronics Show. The spotlight reveal is a "glimpse" of the fourth-generation Uconnect system, which now gets Apple CarPlay and Google's Android Auto. They lead the advances due to be rolled out this year, which include beefier internals for faster startup and processing, the next evolution of the Uconnect navigation system, capacitive touchscreens, and higher resolution screens. Going beyond the vehicle, a concept display will present solutions to help drivers achieve "Car. Life. Balance." That means, as we've heard before, a car that knows what you want before you realized you wanted it via monitoring your driving habits, communicating with other vehicles and traffic infrastructure, and prioritizing information in certain situations to keep the driver from being overwhelmed. A Waze-like community of road knowledge is also on the menu, and it allows for tagging of tag street conditions to inform other vehicles, and a follow-me mode where people can "request to follow other vehicles." Government types will want to scope out the 2016 Dodge Charger Pursuit with an exclusive Uconnect system boasting a 12.1-inch screen and enhanced resolution that can speak to the officer's mobile computer. Have a read of the press release below for more details. FCA Announces New Fourth-Generation Uconnect® Systems at 2016 Consumer Electronics Show in Las VegasLatest technology advancements help provide Car. Life. Balance.• Uconnect team announces fourth-generation Uconnect systems featuring improved performance; Apple CarPlay and Android Auto™ will be available globally in select models during 2016• CES attendees will experience a digital technology concept display that explores future intelligent transportation• FCA exhibit to feature concept brought to reality, the Uconnect 12.1-inch built-in touchscreen that enables integration of law enforcement computer systems with the industry standard Uconnect touchscreen systemJanuary 4, 2016 - Fiat Chrysler Automobiles N.V. and its subsidiary FCA US LLC are heading to the 2016 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas with a display featuring the latest technology advancements in FCA vehicles and will provide a glimpse of the new fourth-generation Uconnect system featuring Apple CarPlay and Android Auto."The Uconnect team is evolving Uconnect and making it even better," said Joni Christensen, Head of Uconnect Marketing, FCA US LLC.
eBay Find of the Day: 1994 Dodge Viper RT/10 with 504 miles
Tue, 26 Nov 2013It's typically hard to find early examples of the Dodge Viper that haven't been crashed or modified, but one eBay seller has a showroom-fresh version of the V10 roadster up for sale worthy of an eBay Find of the Day.
With just 504 miles on the odometer (according to the description and not the images) and "no defects at all," this 1994 Viper is a rare find indeed. Tack on the Buy It Now price of just $37,500 and it seems like a steal - especially when checking out the prices and conditions of other early Vipers currently listed on eBay.
Even after spending months ogling the all-new 2014 SRT Viper, it's hard to ignore the raw beauty of the original open-top model. From the three-spoke wheels to the calf-searing side pipes, everything about this Viper looks just the way it did when it rolled off the line almost 20 years ago. The seller even says that the top and windows have never been installed meaning there are no scratches anywhere on this car!
