BACKSTORY PLEASE READ - I am selling this 1971 Dodge Challenger for a friend. He is having medical problems and can no longer finish this project. He bought the car from Kentucky as a project. The previous owner started restoring the car and lost the VIN. It had a new VIN assigned and was titled as rebuilt. When we cleaned out the car we found the original VIN. I don't know if it can be titled back to the original VIN.

CAR - 1971 Dodge Challenger 318 auto. I believe it was originally light yellow. The interior is black with buckets and a floor console.

BODY - The body is in pretty nice shape for its age. It has minor rust in the usual places. The floors have a few spots. The trunk was the worst and has been removed. It is ready for a new one to be welded in. The doors, fenders and deck lid are in nice shape. A repo rear valance is included. A '70 & a '72 front valance are included. Also included is a fiberglass Shaker hood set up. The engine bay has been cut in with Sassy Grass Green. The base color to complete the paint job is included. All glass is intact and looks decent.

TRIM - The grille & headlight bezels are in really nice shape. The tail lights and argent filler panel are in nice shape too. The windshield & rear window trim and drip moldings look nice. Flip top gas cap also included.

DRIVETRAIN - The car was originally 318 powered, but that motor is long gone. It now has a 440 with a 727 auto and an 8 3/4 differential. (you need driveshaft)

        Engine - '71 440 block w/ steel crank - needs machine work. Includes: Wisco 6 pack pistons (.030); LY rods with ARP rod bolts; 906 heads - have been redone with bronze valve guides and 3 angle valve job - painted w/ POR 15 Hemi orange paint; brand new Comp Cam .501 lift cam; new double roller chain set; Mopar electronic ignition distributor; a Moroso 7 quart pan w/ pick up; an Edelbrock 440 Torker intake; a Barry Grant Demon 850 double pumper - rebuilt with BG metering blocks & a water pump housing with a high volume water pump. (you will need gasket set, rod, main & cam bearings, lifters and pushrods.)

        Transmission - 727 trans has been rebuilt with a performance shift kit & a deep pan with cooling tubes. (I have a stock 11" convertor w/ flex plate - you may want higher stall convertor)

        Differential - B Body 8 3/4 housing. 489 (non posi) carrier w/ 3.23 gears (needs gone through). Also includes 741 carrier w/ 2.93 gears.

SUSPENSION & BRAKES - The front suspension has been rebuilt & converted to disc brakes. The rear brakes have been redone. KYB front shocks and new air shocks in the rear.

INTERIOR - The car has a mostly complete black interior. The dash needs recovered and has a non-R/T cluster. Front door panels are fair. One has a crack. Rear panels look decent. Kick panels are decent. Rear seats are original but still looks decent. The front seats are from a '72 and have been recovered. The floor console is decent. (you will need carpet & console woodgrain decal.)

CAR IS FOR SALE LOCALLY. I may end this auction at any time. SOLD AS IS WHERE IS WHAT IS. PLEASE ASK QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING. CAR IS A GREAT PROJECT.

CASH PREFERRED - ALL CHECKS MUST CLEAR PRIOR TO VEHICLE BEING PICKED UP. I won't release the car the same day with a check.

Car will need dollied.

The car is in a storage facility on the NE side of San Antonio. The storage is month to month and can be transferred. If you need extra time to get the car out you can pay the $70 monthly fee for as long as you need to get the car.

Chrysler extends fuel tank warranties on LX cars, NHTSA ends probe

Tue, 18 Feb 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has ended its investigation of 153,817, 5.7-liter and 6.1-liter Hemi V8-powered 2006 Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Dodge Magnum models after reports of stalling. Chrysler has responded by granting a lifetime warranty on the fuel tanks for these vehicles.
NHTSA received 299 reports of engines stalling while the models were stopped or driving at low speeds, and began an investigation. The government agency found that the control valve shutoff float in the V8s' 19-gallon fuel tank could malfunction if the fuel had too high of an ethanol content. In many cases, the valve would break in the open position, allowing the tank to be overfilled, which would then cause the cars to stall. However, there were no accidents reported, and the vehicles could be restarted immediately.
There will not be a recall on these vehicles because, "the condition represents a low risk to motor vehicle safety and is adequately addressed by Chrysler's extended warranty," NHTSA said to The Detroit News.

Chrysler's Woodward Dream Cruise festivities include Ram concept truck debut

Tue, 13 Aug 2013

The streets will be crowded next weekend along Woodward Avenue in Royal Oak, Michigan for the 19th Annual Woodward Dream Cruise. As part of the run-up to the festivities, Chrysler has announced that all of its brands - Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Ram, Fiat, SRT and Mopar - will bring along their latest vehicles. Also included will be a collection of classic American cars and various activities for attendees at the official Chrysler location on the corner of Woodward and 13 Mile Road.
Special to this year, Ram brand director Bob Hegbloom and head of design John Dehner will unveil a Ram concept truck on Saturday. Chrysler will also bring Ryan Friedlinghaus of West Coast Customs fame along to show off a few custom Chrysler-made vehicles of his own. Fans of the brand on Facebook will get the chance to virtually customize a vehicle from the automaker's portfolio, with the winner getting their dream car built for them by Chrysler. Pretty cool stuff, no?
As in past years, Ford and General Motors will have an official presence at the event as well, and you can expect to see plenty of cars of all makes and models from all parts of the globe. The madness starts this Friday, August 16, from 4:30 PM to 10 PM, with the main event taking place on Saturday, from 9 AM to 9 PM. For more details on the show, including events and their times, check out the press release below.
