The car was an original gold exterior and black interior. It was purchased from the second owner who had it since the mid 1970's. The paint is old and the body needs work but is still good. We will include a fresh rear quarter. The paint still shines but is old. There are many little dings,scratches and rust. The old bondo is cracking and pulling away. There is rust under the vinyl roof which was replaced and is a non original type. The front bumper is original. The rear is a replacement and in good shape. We supplied a new aftermarket rear valance for the R/T model. The frame is good. The trunk is clean with a few small openings at seams. The interior is good. The seats are ok with the exception of a few seams splitting from age. The carpet looks to be showing some aging. Its clean but looks like it might have been dyed black. The headliner is good. The dash board is cracked in two places by the center speaker. The dash board instruments are clean. The gas guage just stopped working and the speedometer crapped out when the new rear gears went in. The lights for the instrument panel are out. The ignition switch is new with a new set of keys. The front end has not been worked on. It will need attention but is fine for cruising. Power steering (very small leak). Manual drum brakes. All work well. The car drives well. The motor is very strong and reliable. The car is fast and sounds great. The car isn't perfect but has major potential. From a mechanical point it is strong. From a body condition state..it needs tlc and body work if you want a show car. For a cruiser and street machine its perfect. Build sheet is included (Broadcast sheet).
DART SWINGER: Blue on Blue. This vehicle was purchased from a very old German lady (94 yrs old named Cookie). She was the original owner of the Dart. I have her bill of sale and build sheet( Broadcast sheet). I took over at 24,500 miles and the odometer reads 38,000 today. She kept the Dart in a garage and waxed it three times a year. I kept it in a garage for a few years but unfortunately have not in the last three years. The Challenger wins that battle. I do keep it very protected but (Betsy...Cooky named the Dart this) would like to go back to a garage. The Dart Swinger has the most desirable paint code (GB5) as we all call it B5 BLUE with a blue vinyl interior with wood grain steering wheel. There is no bondo on the metal. There are the usual issues with paint fade and a few small dings Cooky did while getting in and out of the garage. I recently sanded down the trunk lid and sprayed it with primer. The paint was fading down to the bare metal. The wheel wells are clean and the trunk is very clean. I show in one of the photos an area behind passenger side front wheel (small rust hole) where I sprayed a rust prevention application just to stop any future problem. This I did very lightly in two other areas known to rust in these models. The bumpers are in good shape. They still shine and are straight with an exception of one small ding Cooky did. The engine compartment still has assembly line # marks and sticker. The vinyl roof is original and in very good shape. The 225 six has a Holley one barrel which was professionally rebuilt and painted. The exhaust manifold was replaced with an upgrade for a Super Six set up. The original manifold was cracked. I upgraded the exhaust system from front to back with a 2 inch stainless steel set up with a little growl on the single muffler. This was done by American Muffler a few years ago. The valve cover was replaced and a new battery was just put in. The car has the original box A/C and it blows cold. I did replace the heater core. The heat blows hot and the defroster works well. The AM radio works great. The interior is mint. There is one small (1 1/2inch) tear on the backside of the drivers side seat which is hardly noticeable. The carpet is blue and in good shape. Original hub caps and radial tires with plenty of life in them. The power steering is working fine. The all around manual drum brakes were just serviced and all is fine. This car is ready as it is. It is so reliable and easy to drive. With the A/C working I would use this car in the warmer months and shut it down for the winter. The Dart can be taken very easily to show car quality or it can be cloned into a muscle car monster.
The two cars are not show cars but are very nice drivers. I am only interested in the sale of the two cars....not one. I am only going to respond to offers for the two cars. I am not supplying storage or shipping. Both cars were not damaged or affected by super storm Sandy. I am a car guy and want to sell these cars for the right price. I will be glad to answer questions....please post them through the Ebay message forum. I was limited to 24 pictures and chose the ones I used for the best exposure of what I have for sale.
REASON SELLING: I own six cars and have one garage. Its time to slip into the next stage of my love affair with the automobile. I will be selling a 1967 Cadillac Coupe DeVille after this Mopar package goes. Then I start my new treasure hunt. Which I haven't figured out yet.

Chrysler Recalling 700k Vehicles For Ignition Switch Woes
Tue, Jul 1 2014General 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." To fix the problem, Chrysler will install a new detent ring in the vehicles. It will begin contacting owners soon, and obviously the repair will be free of charge. This isn't the first time this problem has cropped up in these models. Chrysler issued a recall for 248,437 vehicles in 2011 for certain 2010 model year examples. A few weeks ago, NHTSA also began investigating the 2008-2010 model years of the affected models for ignition switch problems. At this time, it's not clear whether that evaluation and this campaign are linked. Chrysler told Autoblog that it has no reports of injuries related to the problem. Scroll down to read the company's statement and the NHTSA recall report. Statement: Expansion of Wireless Ignition Node (WIN) safety recall July 1, 2014 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - Out of an abundance of caution, Chrysler Group is expanding a previous safety recall to install a more robust WIN module detent ring. A previous recall in 2010 included 196,000 Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Grand Caravan and Dodge Journey vehicles built August 2, 2009 through June 17, 2010. The expansion includes an additional 695,957 vehicles manufactured January 29, 2007 through August 1, 2009.
Mopar '15 performance kit now available for Dodge Charger R/T
Tue, Jun 9 2015Dodge is releasing a new Mopar performance kit for the 2015 Charger R/T sedan, offering up just 50 examples of the dealer-installed upgrade package. Only a select few dealers will sell the kit, and they'll do so at a price of $3,550. As per usual, the Mopar kit makes both performance and aesthetic changes. For the 5.7-liter Hemi V8, upgrades include the Stage 1 Scat Pack kit, which adds a cat-back exhaust and cold-air intake, good for 18 additional horsepower and 18 more pound-feet of torque. There's also a new strut tower brace and a "premium fuel powertrain control module." Aesthetic changes are remarkably simple, with matte black body-side decals being the only notable addition to the exterior. In the cabin, there's a serialized dash plaque and new door sill plates. This is the sixth Mopar special edition since 2009. If you wish to join this fairly exclusive fraternity of Dodge owners, dealers are currently accepting orders, with deliveries slated to start later this month. Scroll down for the official press release from Dodge. PERFORMANCE IN A BOX: MOPAR '15 PERFORMANCE KIT LAUNCHES FOR 2015 DODGE CHARGER R/T Owners of 2015 Dodge Charger R/T can enhance their ride with a Mopar '15 performance kit 50 limited-edition Mopar '15 performance kits now available through authorized dealerships for an MSRP of $3,550 Mopar '15 follows the success of five special-edition vehicle packages offered by the FCA brand since 2009 Delivery of Mopar '15 performance kits to begin in early June June 8, 2015 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - Mopar enthusiasts that feel the need to enhance the look and performance of their new 2015 Dodge Charger R/T can now do exactly that with a new Mopar '15 performance kit.

NHTSA closes investigation on 4.7M FCA power modules, no recall
Thu, Jul 30 2015FCA US hasn't had the best time with recalls as of late. Not only did the company recently agree to greater safety oversight and paid $105 million to the government, that came just days after hacking fears prompted a 1.4-million model recall campaign. However, a recent decision to close an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration means that the automaker doesn't have to worry about another major recall possibly affecting 4.7 million vehicles, according to the agency's report (as a PDF). Last September, the Center for Auto Safety petitioned NHTSA to investigate an alleged problem with the totally integrated power module (TIPM) on these FCA US models. The group claimed that a fault with the component could cause a variety of maladies, including stalls, not starting, catching fire, unintended acceleration, and airbag non-deployment. At the time, it also submitted 70 cases where this had reportedly happened. According to NHTSA, "no valid evidence was presented in support of claims related to airbag non-deployment, unintended acceleration, or fire resulting from TIPM faults and these claims were found to be wholly without merit based on review of the field data and design of the relevant systems and components." The agency did find signs of an issue with the fuel pump relay in some Jeep Grand Cherokees and Dodge Durangos, but FCA US issued recalls for the problem in September 2014 and February 2015. Without anything else to go on, the Feds don't think it's worth investigating this topic any more.
