I've owned this car since 1994, It's originally a South Carolina car and never seen any winters, there is no rust anywhere. It was originally a 383 4 barrel car which I have put a built 440 in it's place with only about 5,000 miles on the engine since the build. The engine starts with a 71 block and was bored 30 over using plates that simulate the heads being torqued down, stock rods with forged aluminum TRW 6 pack pistons with valve reliefs, and a forged crank, 1/2" oil pickup tube and drilled block to the oil pump 1/2" 906 heads with oversize manley severe duty 2.14/1.81 stainless steel valves. 3 angle valve job. Crower dual pattern camshaft 292 - 310 duration 537 - 523 lift. 10.20:1 compression ratio. Stock rockers, shafts, pushrods. This engine was professionally built and blueprinted and has a Mopar M1 single plane intake with a Holley 750 double pumper carb equipped with a proform main body that eliminates the choke tower and larger main jets. The oil pan is a Moroso chrome 7 1/2 quart. There is a Be Cool aluminum radiator with an electric fan for engine cooling. The transmission was built at the same time as the engine with racing/street use in mind to compliment the semi radical engine. The transmission was completely rebuilt and has a reverse manual shift valve body and a Mopar deep pan. Then a Turbo Action 10" converter was installed. There is a remote transmission cooler mounted under the radiator to keep it cool. The rear end is an 8 3/4" with a 355 sure grip/posi 489 case. Mopar Super Stock leaf springs with custom built front spring hangers which allowed me to move the axle back 1" for the 28" tires with no clearance issues. I then purchased a Mancini racing driveshaft fully balanced 1" longer than stock to compensate the custom front spring hangers. It also has bolt in Mopar frame connectors and Mopar/MSD 6AL ignition with rev limiter. Holley red electric fuel pump located near the fuel tank which helps feed the Carter mechanical 8 psi pump on the engine. The tires are Mickey Thompson all around sportsman pro rear sportsman fronts. 28x12.5-15 rears on centerline polished auto drag rims 15x10 rear. Jet Coated headers with 3" flowmaster dual exhaust this car really shakes and rumbles the ground you can feel it running in your chest, and very quick. Next a line loc was added to heat the tires for drag strip use. Battery is located in the trunk. The car was professionally and flawlessly painted in 1999 still looks and is flawless this car is perfectly straight no waves or ripples whatsoever and very deep paint. The color is Porsche Red. Both bumpers have been re Chromed and the trunk lid chrome has been replaced along with the quarter end pieces and front fender ends which include the signals. All rubber pieces, door gaskets and window felts were replaced. The place that painted it is the best in the area and is known for their perfect paint jobs. They were the former Custom Body Shop here in Utica, N.Y. now it's named CARS Collision. They are also Mopar fanatics. The seats I've changed to race style in front, and re carpeted the interior and installed a custom instrument panel with all AutoMeter gauges throughout. Also added a CD player and removed the heater box and dash ducts for weight savings, also because I never use or planned to use the car in any inclement weather. This car has never seen rain since the paint job was done in 1999. I do still have the heater box and clove compartment liner saved in case I ever wanted to put it back in. I made the aluminum panel attached to the firewall to hide the heater motor hole along with the ac/heater hoses holes. This car was equipped with ac originally, and I saved the condenser along with the lines. This car was also a vinyl top car originally which the body shop welded the holes where the moldings go during the paint job, I like this style charger without the vinyl tops, my opinion. This car runs perfectly and is turn key, you get in & go. Ive set this car up for pro street type of use, you can go to the drag strip or just cruise the streets, it offers a great ride. I'm only selling due to having lost interest in the hobby and can use the money in other ways. This car looks so nice it could win best paint at a show because the paint is phenomenal, along with the sound it really gets alot of attention. I can email more pics by request. I may consider a few trades and must be in mint condition Kawasaki ZX14, Kawasaki Concours 14, Harley streetglides, or a Boss Hoss partial trade, not interested in any restored classics, rather have newer models.

2014 Dodge Durango
Wed, 25 Sep 2013Say what you want about the Dodge Durango, but ever since it came on the scene in 1998, it has occupied its own niche in the SUV market - not too small, not too big, tough, able, not always the best on the road and not always the best off-road. If it were a football player, it would be a tight-end that can block and catch. If it were a hamburger - a double burger with cheese and bacon, but not the Whopper.
As part of a mid-cycle upgrade for what was already a very capable SUV that Chrysler introduced in 2011, and built on the same platform as the Mercedes GL-Class and Jeep Grand Cherokee, the 2014 Durango has gotten some refinements worth noting that have cleaned up its tailoring and toned up its body and powerplant. The result is an SUV that shows itself to be a very good value in a category full of sticker prices that can run away faster than a kid who's been told he has to take ballroom dancing lessons.
Chrysler executives showing us the new Durango made a special point to reiterate that the Dodge brand is not going away, as has been rumored after the company took the Ram and Viper - the cream of the brand - out from under the Dodge umbrella. Turns out Dodge has been the brand attracting the most young people (who knew?) and has a younger average age buyer than Honda. The Dodge brand historically has also attracted buyers who aren't exactly Phi-Beta Cappa, which some companies worry about. Chrysler not so much. Dodge buyers tend to be more the working, high-school-educated, community-college-educated backbone of the work force in America. If they keep coming to Dodge, the Durango is a pretty good piece of hardware to save up for.
Watch this Dodge Viper get clawed to death
Tue, 07 Jan 2014There's a scene in the James Bond movie, Casino Royale, where Daniel Craig's Agent 007 is captured by villain Le Chiffre, played by Mads Mikkelsen. Le Chiffre tortures Bond in a scene that is rather difficult to watch (especially for blokes) and impossible to describe on these digital pages (Google at your own risk). This video is the automotive equivalent of the Casino Royale torture scene.
It shows a Dodge Viper - a late, first-generation GTS judging by the center-exit exhausts - getting assaulted by a giant piece of heavy equipment. The large claw shows no mercy on the V10-powered sports car, rending its muscular curves into pieces and then running it over, just for good measure. It's a painful video to watch (and hear!), made worse because we don't know what the Viper did to deserve such a fate. About a third of the way through the video, the cameraman indicates that the man with the claw is a new operator from Chrysler, and it appears there may be some fire damage, but beyond that, we don't have much to go on.
Scroll down for the video but be warned, it isn't for the faint of heart.
Does the future of Fiat-Chrysler include Dodge?
Thu, 13 Jun 2013Wards Auto reports the future of Dodge is looking uncertain. Fiat has more or less laid out it's game plan for the next few years, and while the Chrysler, Fiat and Jeep lines are set to receive plenty of love, Dodge isn't so lucky. Fiat has already hobbled Dodge significantly by splitting off the brand's trucks into a separate Ram line.
Wards says that after the Avenger rides off into the sunset early next year, Fiat-Chrysler won't replace the model, leaving a gaping midsize hole in the Dodge lineup. The report also cites unnamed sources as saying that at least two other current Dodge products will move to the Chrysler line.
One of those could very well be the Grand Caravan. Chrysler has already made it clear that it plans to trim redundancy between its minivan offerings, but it has yet to clarify which other vehicle could sail under the Chrysler banner moving forward. Either way, such changes to the product line would theoretically leave Dodge with just four models.
