1970 Challenger Body And 68 Fury 3 With 383 Automatic - Project Deal on 2040-cars
Flint, Texas, United States
Vehicle Title:Clear
Make: Dodge
Drive Type: none
Model: Challenger
Mileage: 150,000
Trim: none
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.

Pony-car sales war: Mustang vs. Camaro vs. Challenger [UPDATE]
Fri, Jul 3 2015Update: An earlier version of this story misstated the 2015 Mustang's weight when compared with previous models. Additionally, we have added comments from Chevrolet in the text. The Ford Mustang has blown past the Chevy Camaro as America's best-selling pony car, and in June, it wasn't even close. The 'Stang outsold the Camaro 11,719 to 8,611 cars. The Camaro remained ahead of the Dodge Challenger, which sold 6,845 units. Even though the Camaro did post an 11.5-percent sales improvement in June, the competition is arguably stronger than at anytime since the 1970s muscle-car era. The Mustang's sales leapt a whopping 53.6 percent, while the Challenger saw a gain of 56 percent. Several factors are weighing down Camaro sales, including its lame duck status. Chevy is launching a new generation of the Camaro this year that's more than 200 pounds lighter, offers a new turbo four-cylinder engine option, and has a nicer interior than the outgoing model. Put simply: wait a few months and you can get a better car. It's also unlikely Chevy will jack up the price much, as it's historically kept the Camaro within reach of everyday enthusiasts. While Chevy fans wait in anticipation for their new sports car, Ford and Dodge have downshifted. The new Mustang, which went on sale last year, is faster and more sophisticated than its predecessor. It also offers a 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder, which Ford has credited for the Mustang's recent uptick and makes up 36 percent of the car's sales, Ford analyst Erich Merkle said. View 17 Photos June's performance allowed the Mustang to widen its sales gap with the Camaro this year. Through the first five months, Ford sold 68,290 Mustangs, a 54.4-percent increased compared with 2014. Chevy sold 42,593 Camaros, an 8.7-percent decrease. The Challenger – long the No. 3 pony car in sales volume – has seen its sales surge 41 percent this year to 37,011 units. Spokesman Monte Doran said Chevy expected that 2015 would be a "relatively soft year" for the Camaro. "Mustang is taking advantage of years' worth of pent-up demand for an independent rear suspension," he said. "When Camaro introduced an IRS, in 2009, it helped make us the best-selling performance car in America.
Small number of 2013 Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger models recalled
Sun, 24 Feb 2013A small number of units of the 2013 Chrysler 200 (inset) and 2013 Dodge Avenger are being recalled over a broken control valve in the fuel tank assembly. The potential 1,785 sedans were manufactured late last year, and if affected with a broken control valve could suffer from stalling or fuel leakage.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration notes that the recall should begin next month, at which time owners can take their cars to dealers for repair free of charge. The full release with more information is just below.
40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
