Some assembly required before taking it to the local cruise. Car was built to be a nice driver. Intended on finishing the car but business and life are pressing me to sell the car at this time. Paint is done and has never been color sanded or buffed. Interior is done. Chrome is done. Stainless needs a little polishing to go the next level, very. New Coker wide whites. New rebuilt 325 hemi engine done by a specialist in these type motors. Transmission is done and ready to drop in. Brakes are new but are not currently working (I think they just need bleeding) Electrical is in place and needs to be hooked up. Have shelves full of new and used parts including a new windshield that I paid $2,500 for, as best I can tell the only parts I know that I am missing are some engine pully parts that somehow got lost at a powder coat company. If anyone has these please call, would be interested in buying."

 1957 DODGE CUSTOM ROYAL LANCER D-500 (not a cornet)  My dad and I were working on getting this car completed and life is demanding that we sell it not completed as intended.  All of the expensive and hard to get done work has been completed.  Car is needing final assembly of finished components to drive.   The car is extremely rare being a D-500 performance car.   This is an early American muscle car that I wish we could have experienced driving.   If you buy it my dad and i would love to take it for a spin when you finish it.  One rare option being a Texas car is that it has factory A/C  with the much desired 235 Hemi engine. 

When we purchased the car the man had  done some work on the frame and brakes for restoration.   The brakes are off of a wagon so they are the larger version brake assembly.  He wanted to make it a D-501 clone.   This did not happen except that it has larger brakes.   When we built the car we paid for and purchased the best parts and craftsmanship we could afford.  The car was a straight Texas car to begin with and did have some rust in the floor boards that was repaired by the body shop.    The paint turned out great and still needs to be color sanded and buffed out. 

Interior is complete including headliner and carpet.  We were able to find the correct fabric with the original style gold thread.   The engine and  transmission are ready to be installed and have both been professionally rebuilt to the highest of standards by people who were experienced with these type engines.  I have most all of the parts.  We lost some of the engine pulleys at the powder coater.  This is really going to make agreat car for someone.  If you have any questions please do not hezitate to give me a call 410 533 5347 cell      We invested a lot in the car and hope to get as much as possible back but are also realize it does not always work out that way.

Dodge revives Challenger T/A and Charger Daytona trims for 2017

Tue, Aug 16 2016

Dodge is reviving the Challenger's T/A trim and the Charger's Daytona line for 2017. Introduced on iconic Woodward Avenue just days before the annual Woodward Dream Cruise kicks off, the new variants promise more performance hardware and sportier aesthetics. We'll start with the two-door. The Challenger T/A, available with either the R/T trim's 5.7-liter V8 or the fire-breathing 6.4-liter Hemi V8, is inspired by the Challenger T/As of old. That means a less restrictive, 2.75-inch active exhaust system and a conical Mopar air filter. But there's no clear bump in output – Dodge still lists the base 5.7-liter at 375 horsepower and the 6.4-liter model at 485 hp. But hey, they're going to look cooler. Unlike the Challenger Hellcat, which should have it as standard, Dodge is including a Satin Black hood on every Challenger T/A. In fact, Satin Black is a recurring theme on this Challenger's front fascia, roof, rear decklid, and T/A bodyside stripes. And yes, the 20-inch Mopar wheels are black, too – they're also an inch wider than normal. Dodge is offering the T/A in three different trims. The base T/A has everything we described above, while the T/A Plus adds some comfort features like heated and vented Nappa leather seats, an 8.4-inch UConnect system with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, a six-speaker stereo, and a shortcut button for the Dodge Performance Pages. The T/A 392, meanwhile, adds the 6.4-liter V8, even wider wheels, and Brembo six-pot calipers. If you prefer smoking tires with four doors, there's the new Charger Daytona. No, there's not an enormous wing on the back. But Dodge added the same kind of engine/exhaust upgrades found on the T/A while upping the top speed from 135 to 150 miles per hour. Satin Black features prominently again, with hood and rear fender graphics. The roof is also black. Unlike the Challenger, Dodge is only offering two different versions of the Daytona – the 5.7-liter base model and the 6.4-liter version, called the Daytona 392. Prices for the Challenger T/A start at $38,485, including a $1,095-destination charge, while the T/A Plus adds $2,750. Adding the 392 means shelling out $45,090. For the Daytona, you'll need a check for $40,985 for the 5.7-liter or $46,090 for the 6.4-liter. Orders for the Charger Daytona open in September, while the T/A is a month later. Related Video:

Cars.com runs 11-second quarter with Dodge Charger Hellcat

Mon, Jun 1 2015

The Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat and its Challenger sibling are two of the heroes of the modern performance world. With a headline-grabbing 707 horsepower from a supercharged 6.2-liter V8, their output even shames many supercars. But how quick can one really cover a quarter mile? Cars.com recently decided to find out by taking a Charger Hellcat to the drag strip to see if the sedan lived up to Dodge's 11-second claims. The results were quite impressive. After 13 quarter-mile runs of adjusting variables like the tire pressures and the car's various electronic aids, the Charger Hellcat managed a pass in 11.03 seconds at 126.61 mph – the pinnacle result of the day. This car was mechanically stock and wore the optional Pirelli P Zero tires. According to Cars.com, other quick sprints reached 11.09 seconds and 11.1 seconds, which even beat the site's 11.41-second best from a Challenger Hellcat last year. Getting the Hellcat's prodigious power down without losing traction was a challenge, even on the summer tires. Cars.com thought it had a run that could have dropped below 11 seconds, but then the wheels spun. Using the factory-recommended pressures, the Charger Hellcat was no still slouch with an 11.27-second time recorded, but taking things down to 25 psi proved the quickest at the strip. We already knew that the Charger Hellcat was a wonderful vehicle for eating up huge gulps of asphalt at high speeds and could verify its 204-mile-per-hour top speed (quite a bit faster, incidentally, than the Ferrari California T's 196 mph top-speed). Apparently, the 11-second quarter-mile claim is just as accurate. Also, for any curious owners, the Cars.com story divulges many of the tweaks required to reach this seriously quick time.
