1970 Dodge Challenger #s Matching 340/automatic Project on 2040-cars
Royal Oak, Michigan, United States
|
This auction is for one 1970 Dodge Challenger incomplete project car. It is a real A66 340 performance package car with its original engine, 727 transmission, radiator, complete dash assembly, steering column with keys & heater box. It still has its original fender tag which is rusty but readable from the backside and its build sheet that's in very nice condition. As seen in the pictures it is a rolling chassis that has rust issues from front to back and top to bottom. It doesn't retain its original rear axle assembly but it does have an E-body 8 & 3/4" out of another car with an open center section. It is an original 4 wheel drum brake car but I have installed an original 1970 E-body front disc brake assembly that includes spindles, two piece rotors and calipers. The engine is disassembled but complete except for exhaust manifolds and air cleaner. I had the block hot tanked and magnafluxed to verify that it is a good rebuildable core and that it is.
It is an original FK5 Burnt Orange car inside and out with a black top and tail stripe. Most of The interior is missing but it was a console shifted automatic car. The doors are original to the car and are in useable condition with minimal rust but one is damaged as shown in the pics. Unfortunately somebody cut out the top yoke of the radiator core support that had the body numbers stamped on it but I'll include a nice whole core support that was removed from another vehicle. It still retains the body numbers that are stamped on the cowl, the vin tag on the dash and the door vin decal on the driver's side door. The trunk lid on it is rust-free and comes with the early, non-crumple zone Rallye hood shown in the pics and is also rust-free. Also included is a nice front bumper with brackets but no grille, headlight bezels or fenders. I originally intended to restore this car myself but that is no longer my plan as I have too many other projects and nowhere near enough time to do them all. I have a lot of parts that I have picked up over the years for this car that are NOT included in this auction but will be available for sale to the high bidder so if you don't see it in the pics or listed in the description, it's not included in this auction. I have registered this car with Galen Govier and those documents are included in this auction. It is 1 of 3,771 340 single four barrel automatics built in 1970. This would be one very nice Mopar when restored and with all of the original equipment and documentation I think it deserves to be saved. I am open to shipping this car anywhere in the world but I am not responsible for making any of those arrangements and shipping is not included in this auction. All of the parts that are included would fit inside the car except the hood which would have to be strapped to the front of the car which I will do for the new owner if not a local pick up. The car is located in the Detroit area. A $500 deposit is required within 24 hours through Pay Pal and the balance to be paid in cash if you're going to pick it up within 7 days or by certified funds or bank wire transfer within 7 days of the end of the auction. I will not release the car until it is paid in full and all funds have cleared. The reserve is pretty low in my opinion and I will not reveal the reserve unless you have made a bid. Please feel free to contact me with any more questions you might have. |

Dodge hoping Fast & Furious appearance gives Dart a sales jolt [w/video]
Tue, 28 May 2013According to Automotive News, Chrysler is hoping Fast & Furious 6 will be kind to the Dodge Dart. While the compact sedan doesn't actually show up in the film, Dodge has partnered up with the movie franchise for a new ad featuring the Dart.
Chrysler hasn't exactly seen the high sales numbers it was originally hoping for with the new sedan, thanks in part to a couple of missteps. For starters, most early-production vehicles were only offered with a manual transmission. Analysts believe Chrysler squandered around 95 percent of potential Dart sales because automatic transmission options weren't immediately available.
Right now, the Dodge Dart rakes 19th among compact cars, pulling down 31,064 sales through April. Last month was the company's strongest, with 8,099 units moving off of dealer lots. Unfortunately, the model has also been handicapped by its older sister, the Avenger. With Chrysler throwing heavy incentives at the aging sedan, many consumers have taken advantage of a better deal with the slightly larger, more powerful Avenger.
Chrysler to accelerate production of 2013 Ram and V6 engines
Fri, 16 Nov 2012Chrysler is adding a third shift at its Warren Truck plant to meet demand for the new 2013 Ram pickup. And with tight supplies of its Pentastar V6, the company is also boosting output at its Mack Engine plant.
The expansions will add 1,250 jobs and are part of a $238 million investment by Chrysler in the Detroit area. Warren's third shift will begin work sometime in the spring, a Chrysler rep told Automotive News. Mack's increased Pentastar production a could include both 3.6 and 3.2-liter engines.
The company says it also plans to invest $40 million in its Trenton Engine plant to allow for production of a 3.2-liter V6 as well as the Tigershark inline-four for the upcoming Jeep Liberty replacement.
Lackluster Dodge Dart sales trigger layoffs
Thu, 06 Mar 2014Hidden amidst the overall very positive sales figures that Chrysler released earlier this week were a few disappointments, the biggest of which may be the Dodge Dart. While Dodge sales in general were down 11 percent from a year ago, the Dart's poor figures stood out from the rest - with 4,888 units sold, the Dart was down 37 percent in February.
It comes as little surprise, then, that the automaker has announced layoffs at its assembly plant in Belvidere, IL. According to The Daily Herald, Dodge will temporarily lay off 325 workers "to balance vehicle supply with current sales demand." Put more simply, there are more Darts than buyers at the moment...
We don't think the Dodge Dart is a bad car, but it's playing in a market that offers a few standout sellers, like the Chevy Cruze, Ford Focus, Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla. According to AutoPacific analyst Dave Sullivan, as quoted by The Daily Herald, "great incentives on the Dodge Avenger" are also partly to blame for the Dart's poor showing.
