Up for auction is a 1970 Dodge Challenger rolling body without a motor or transmission. It started out as a 6 cyl, auto. It has an 8-3/4" rearend from an R/T of the same year. The front spindles have been changed from drums to discs using 1976 A-body spindles and calipers. The rotors are rusty and not usable as I just put them on to move it around. A lot of the front suspension bushings have been changed out with new ones. Ball joints are all new. The K-member with power steering box was taken out of the car and cleaned and painted gloss black. The linkage, tie-rod ends, have not been changed out yet. The steering column is out of the car as it was recently painted and have not had time to install again. The intereior of the car is shot as shown in picture. The dash is mostly disassembled and was being taken out to set an air conditioning unit (from the same year R/T) in place to finish drilling a few holes to mount it later. The front floorboards have rust  (more in the drivers side) and the trunk has been patched in the past but still would need to be replaced to make it right. I have the Grille and only one of the headlight bezel. Have most of the inside plastic panels, some may be faded chipped, etc. Glass is all good with some fading on the front windshield. The other windows have been replaced with factory tinted glass except for the drivers side which is included. The body is in pretty good shape with a few dings and small rust spots which can be fixed. The underhood area has been cleaned, sanded, primed, almost ready for paint.  Also included is a 1968 Fury 3 4-door with 383 V-8, automatic which had been converted in the past to electronic ignition. This was also a running car I drove back to where I live when I bought it. It ran fine but it has set a couple of years since then and in the meantime 2 of the tires have gone down-one is almost off the rim, and a critter had made lunch out of some of the spark plug wires. This would be a good swap into the Challenger as the K-member was set up for use with a small or big block. This was what I was planning before losing storage of these vehicles. Have clear titles for both vehicles also. This is a project deal and both cars are included and are being sold As-Is. NOTE--Winning bidder to pick-up at location. I cannot deliver.

Mopar rolls out new Scat Packages for Dodge Challenger, Charger and Dart

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

Dodge 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.

Roadkill pits every project car against each other

Sat, 22 Feb 2014

The guys behind Motor Trend's monthly Roadkill series have collected nine of their favorite project cars from their videos and pitted them against each other in a battle royale to determine a winner. It's 44 minutes long, but it's completely worth the investment of time.
The cars run the gamut from a 1973 Chevrolet Ramp Truck, a 1975 AMC Pacer and a legitimately impressive 1967 Chevy Camaro, and they are pitted against each other to see which is the fastest around an autocross course. The drivers include Roadkill's two hosts and Motor Trend's Johnny Lieberman and Carlos Lago. It's reminiscent of the best episodes of Top Gear and worth a watch.
So it's the weekend - the perfect time to relax. Grab your preferred beverage, get comfortable and enjoy 44 minutes of some seriously ratty but utterly cool project cars as they are throttled within an inch of their lives (or past it). Scroll down to check out the video.

2014 Dodge Durango teaser reveals new 'racetrack' taillights

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

Not wanting to let Jeep get all of the SUV attention for the 2014 model year, Dodge is unveiling a refreshed version of its Durango at the New York Auto Show. Teased in this image, all we can really tell about the 2014 Dodge Durango is that it will be getting Dodge's "racetrack" taillights similar to the Charger and Dart.
The chrome or painted strip currently between the Durango's Zorro taillamps have been removed to allow for a full-width LED array with "DODGE" lettering displayed more prominently above the license plate pocket. Parent company Chrysler also promises that the updated Durango will add "several new class-exclusive features," but stops short of saying what those are. Earlier reports suggest that among the changes, buyers will be able to look forward to an eight-speed automatic gearbox, which ought to improve the three-row SUV's fuel efficiency.
