Hi and thanks for looking. This is a great and original 1970 RT SE 440 U code Challenger. I am the third owner. The first owner from Washington State drove it from 1970-1981 and put on 53000 miles on it when he sold it to another gentleman in eastern Oregon where it sat in his personal from 1981-2004. I bought it in 2004 and it has sat in my heated garage since then and it now has 53700 miles so it has sat about 33 years. The good thing about that is it has not gotten all beat up over the years but the bad is everything leaked from drying out gaskets. So last year I started going through everything starting with the original engine. I sent it to a speed shop in Phoenix that does a lot of Mopar engines and had it baked ,tumbled,bored out with new pistons,rings,new purple 484 lift Mopar cam and lifters. The complete assembly was then balanced plus all new cam,rod and main Clevette 77 bearings and Melling high volume oil pump. The 906 heads were completely gone through with hardened seats and new springs,keepers etc. Also had the original Carter AVS carb rebuilt. The motor runs great. Next I had the 727 automatic rebuilt with a shift kit and new torque converter and it shifts great. Next I had the original rear end taken out and cleaned and resealed. It has the 489 case and Sur-Grip (Positrac) with the 3.55 gears. I then put new shocks painted black just like the originals were. I then put in a new exhaust system just like the original that was removed with the resonators and all. The tips are the original ones. I also put in a new gas tank and straps. I had the power steering box rebuilt the power steering pump rebuilt using the original casing. Then went through the entire AC system with rebuilt pump,new drier,new condenser,NOS heater valve,new heater core and had the evaporator cleaned and checked.also rebuilt the ac heater box with new foam kit and it looks great. This car also comes with the very rare space saver spare and jack assembly.The windshield was replaced a long time ago and is tinted as are all the rest of the original windows from the factory and they all look new.Inside the car is almost all original except for the new Legendary seat covers and foam that matched the original I took out. I still have the original seat covers that go with the car. The upholsterer through away the drivers seat because it had a tear in the seam but you get all I have. I also put in new carpet from Legendary but have the old if you want it as it was kind of faded. I also put in new door sills but everything else is original like the headliner door panels,kick panels, console, dash, rim blow steering wheel which I had redone by Mopar wheels in Arizona and they did a great job and the horn works great. The dash has never been out and all the gauges work fine but the clock will work for a couple of days and quite for a day so it will need cleaned at least and there is a small crack in the dash top by the center speaker.. It also has a thumbwheel AM FM radio that works. This car has 2 fender tags. This is from Galen Goviers report starting with E86-440 1-4 barrel 375hp V8 engine "440 MAGNUM" .

I forgot to say I also put on a new Legendary Vinyl top as the old one was a little faded at the bottom. Also the original buzzer for the key and if you leave the lights on still works fine. So here is a super nice and original 1970 R/T SE 440 U code with original paint and motor and almost everything else. I have driven this car about 390 miles in the last month and it is a blast which is 390 miles farther than it has been driven in the last 35 years. If you are looking for an rare and original R/T SE 440 that looks just like it did in 1970 and has not been all rusted out or a 318 car with a 440 or new hemi installed and all hacked up then this car is for you.If I have forgot something you can call me at 208 863 1430 my name is Doug. I am very realistic on the price for such a nice car. I am selling it because my daughter is getting her license and so there will be no room for this classic at my shop or home. I may be interested in a newer VW beatle conv, or a newer VW Jetta as partial trade. Thanks

Chrysler recalling 700k minivans and Dodge Journey for ignition switch woes

Tue, 01 Jul 2014

General Motors isn't the only automaker with ignition switch problems. Chrysler is fighting it too and is now announcing a recall of 695,957 examples worldwide of the Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans from the 2008-2010 model years, plus the 2009-2010 Dodge Journey.
According to a statement from Chrysler, the models have a bad wireless ignition node detent ring in the ignition switch, making it possible for drivers to appear to have the key in the "Run" position but for the spring not to fully engage. It can then slip back to the "Accessory" position and shut the car off. If this happens, the vehicle loses power steering, brake boost and the airbags.
There is some disparity about the number of vehicles affected under this recall. In its statement, Chrysler claims that it covers 525,206 vehicles in the US, 102,892 in Canada, 25,591 in Mexico and 42,268 elsewhere. However, the recall announcement posted by The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration lists an estimated 438,109 vehicles in the US. Chrysler spokesperson Nick Cappa told Autoblog via email that the reasoning for the different figures "will become clear at a later date."

Top torque-to-weight ratios under $100k, $50k and $25k

Tue, 07 Oct 2014

Horsepower may steal a lot of headlines, but the always-more-complex torque figure is often a critical one for both the workingman and the motoring playboy. The measure of rotational force represents the twist that can liquefy one's tires or haul one's horse trailer. Good stuff.
It follows then, that as with the horsepower-to-weight list that we assembled for you a few months ago, a list of cars that offer the most pound-feet with the fewest pounds to carry, is an interesting one to break down. Sure, there's a big difference in how the torque is applied from a turbocharged six-cylinder in a Swedish luxury sedan and a massive heavy-duty truck's turbo-diesel. But being the car/stat geeks that we are, we think it's kinda neat that those two vehicles rank near each other where torque and weight intersect.
As with the horsepower list, we've given you figures as pounds per every one pound-foot. Again broken down into broad price categories, we've got a mixed bag of 2014 and 2015 models here, too. Every effort has been made to select the most up-to-date prices and specs, and we've also to omitted some '14 cars that won't be re-upped after the ongoing yearly changeover.

For his last act, Marchionne will outline an EV/hybrid roadmap this week

Wed, May 30 2018

MILAN/LONDON — Fiat Chrysler (FCA) boss Sergio Marchionne is expected to outline new plans for electric and hybrid cars in a strategy presentation on Friday, aiming to ensure the world's seventh-largest carmaker remains in the race in the absence of a merger. The 65-year-old will present FCA's strategy to 2022, his final contribution to the company he turned around and multiplied in value through 14 years of canny dealmaking. After failing to secure a tie-up he said was necessary to manage the costs of producing cleaner vehicles, Marchionne needs to show the group can keep churning out profits on its own, even as emissions rules tighten, SUV competition intensifies and worries around his succession abound. Marchionne had long refused to jump on the electrification bandwagon, saying he would only do so if selling battery-powered cars could be done at a profit. He even urged customers not to buy FCA's Fiat 500e, its only battery-powered model, because he was losing money on each sold. But Tesla's success and the need to comply with tougher emissions rules have forced Marchionne to commit to what he calls "most painful" spending. "FCA is way behind rivals in terms of hybrid and electric vehicles and they need to hit the accelerator to convince investors they can close that gap," said Andrea Pastorelli, a fund manager at 8a+ Investimenti. Germany's Volkswagen, Daimler, BMW and U.S. rivals GM and Ford have committed to spending billions of euros each in coming years to try produce profitable cars powered by cleaner fuels. FCA needs to present a clear roadmap, just like Volvo Cars, which ditched diesel from its best-selling XC60 SUV, launched a new electric brand and pledged to shift all brands to hybrid by 2019, a banking source close to FCA said, noting: "The tech divide determines winners and losers in the industry." Marchionne has already said half of the wider FCA fleet will incorporate some elements of electrification by 2022, while luxury marque Maserati will spearhead FCA's electrification drive by making all new models due after 2019 electric. But its plans remain vaguer and less advanced than most big rivals and some investors wonder about the capital required to make vehicles compliant, and what share of spending can go to electrification given FCA's numerous demands.
