1969 DODGE CHARGER R/T 440 MAGNUM. NUMBERS MATCHING CAR. ORIGINAL 440 MAGNUM ENGINE AND 727 TORQUEFLITE 3 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION CAR. ORIGINAL FACTORY GEARING STILL IN CAR. THE CAR IS NOT RUNNING AND WILL NEED TOWED OR TRAILERED.

I ORIGINALLY PURCHASED THIS CAR IN 1985 AT TIME OF MY GRADUATION FROM HIGH SCHOOL. HAS BEEN WITH ME EVER SINCE BUT I HAVE LET IT GO AND I GUESS I NEED TO MOVE ON AND LET SOMEONE ELSE THAT HAS THE TIME AND MONEY TO GIVE IT A FIRST CLASS RESTORATION LIKE I WISHED I COULD DO.
THE CAR WAS LAST LICENCED IN 1997. ABOUT SEVEN YEARS AGO ITS 40 YEAR OLD WIRING GAVE OUT WITH A MELTDOWN AT THE STARTER RELAY (MORE ON THAT LATER) AND HAS BEEN SITTING OUTSIDE AND INSIDE EVER SINCE. I TOLD MYSELF I WILL GET AROUND TO ITS REPLACEMENT...BUT HAVE DECIDED TO PASS THE CAR ALONG. SO STARTING OFF I WILL LIST THE GOOD ...BAD..THE UGLY.. WITH AS MUCH DETAIL AS I CAN.

IF YOU WOULD LIKE MORE PHOTOS OR INFO I HAVE MISSED PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME AT MY E-MAIL THRU HERE AT E-BAY OR MY E-MAIL ... WOLFSBANEII@YAHOO.COM. PLEASE INCLUDE YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS AS E-BAY SOMETIMES HAS A PROBLEM WITH ME TRYING TO SEND MORE PICS THRU A RESPONDING E-MAIL. ON A PURCHASING NOTE, MY LAST SALE I ACCEPTED PAY-PAL AS A PAYMENT SOURCE, I NO LONGER WILL ACCEPT PAY PAL DUE TO LOSING CLOSE TO 200.00 FOR THEIR PROCESSING FEE. SORRY FOR THE INCONVIENCE.

ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION DRIVE TRAIN:
AS STATED THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 440 MAGNUM ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION AND FACTORY GEARING. IT HAS BEEN SITTING A WHILE SO IT WILL NEED A GOOD REFRESHING OF THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION. I NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINE ,TRANSMISSION , OR DIFFERENTAL WHILE THE CAR WAS IN RUNNING ORDER. THE GEARING I BELIEVE ARE 3:23 RATIO AND IS A POSI /SURE GRIP UNIT. IT IS AN A/C CAR BUT WAS NEVER HOOKED UP SINCE THE DAY I HAD IT. THE A/C PUMP IS STILL ON THE CAR BUT THE LINES , DRIER, RECIEVER, EXPANSION VALVE, AND CONDENSOR ARE NOT WITH THE CAR. CAR HAS NOT SEEN HEADERS WITH THE FACTORY UP SWUNG MANIFOLDS STILL ON CAR. DUAL EXHAUST SYSTEM STILL PRETTY MUCH INTACT FROM WHAT I CAN SEE. CARB IS FACTORY ORIGINAL FOUR BARREL SET UP.
THE BAD NEWS AS THIS DEALS WITH THE ENGINE IS THE WIRING HARNESS. THE WIRING FINALLY GAVE OUT AS I WAS ATTEMPTING TO START IT ONE DAY. SMOKE ROLLED FROM UNDER THE HOOD AND THE WIRING AT THE STARTER RELAY BURT AND SEVERAL WIRES WERE MELTED ALONG THE WAY TO THE BULKHEAD CONNECTOR ON THE FIREWALL. I AM NOT SURE HOW FAR THE MELTDOWN GOT AS FAR AS INSIDE THE CAR. I DON'T RECALL ANY FIRES UNDER THE DASH SO IT COULD HAVE STOPPED THERE. BUT IF YOU ARE GOING TO RESTORE THIS... THERE ARE NEW AND MORE RELIABLE REPLACEMENT HARNESSES OUT THERE NOW.

TIRES AND BRAKES :
THE TIRES ARE BRAND NEW... 215/70R/15 MOUNTED ON 15 INCH STEEL RIMS. THE TIRES ALONE ARE WORTH 300.00. THE ORIGINAL RIMS ARE LONG GONE AS I BOUGHT IT WITH AFTERMARKET RIMS INSTALLED AND SOLD THOSE WITH A PREVIOUS CAR. JUST TO SHOW HOW CLOSE TO AN ORIGINAL DODGE CHARGER THIS IS... THE DRIVERS SIDE STILL HAS THE LEFT HANDED THREADED LUG NUTS.
THE BRAKES ARE ORIGINAL 11 INCH DRUMS ALL THE WAY AROUND. IT DOES HAVE POWER BRAKES BUT THE ORIGINAL OWNER SAID THE BOOSTER WASN'T ORIGINAL, BUT IT WORKED FOR ME SO I NEVER REPLACED.

SUSPENSION AND STEERING:
FACTORY FRONT AND REAR SWAY BARS.. LEAST I THINK THE REAR IS ORIGINAL..LOOKS LIKE IT. LEAF SPRINGS IN REAR... TORSION BARS IN FRONT. I NEVER REPLACED THE BALL JOINTS OR TIE ROD ENDS WHILE I HAD THE CAR. IT DROVE STRAIGHT AND DIDNT WANDER , NO NOTICEABLE STRANGE TIRE WEAR SO I RAN IT AS IS. THE SUSPENSION SET UP IS VERY VERY STIFF... THERE IS NO BOUNCE TO THIS CAR AT ALL... VERY TIGHT. POWER STEERING WITH A VERY QUICK AND ULTRA RESPONSIVE WHEEL. I COULD SPIN THE WHEEL WITH JUST MY FINGERTIPS WHEN POWERED UP.

UNDER BODY:
THIS IS A UNI-BODY CAR. THE FRAME RAILS ARE SOLID AS WELL AS AROUND THE TORSION BARS. I UNDERCOATED ALL THE AREAS I COULD REACH WHEN I FIXED IT UP THOSE MANY YEARS AGO. THE FLOOR PANS ARE IN DECENT SHAPE AS FAR AS I KNOW. BUT... THE DRIVERS SIDE I HAD TO PATCHWORK UP AND SHOULD PROBABLY BE REPLACED. THE REAR DRIVERS I DIDNT TOUCH.AT THE TIME I WAS FIXING THE CAR, SHEET METAL WASNT AS AVAILABLE AS IT IS TODAY SO IT WAS TOUGH GETTING METAL REPLACEMENTS. SAME GOES WITH THE TRUNK. THE TRUNK WAS REPLACED WITH A PAN OUT OF A 1968 CHARGER. THERE ARE A FEW SMALL RUST THRUS IN THE TRUNK BUT CAN BE PATCHED OR REPLACED ...UP TO YOU. THE PASSENGERS SIDE FLOOR PANS, FRONT AND REAR I DIDNT REPLACE OR PATCH UP..WERE STILL IN GOOD SHAPE WHEN I WAS GOING THRU THE CAR.

EXTERIOR:
I NEVER HAD ACCESS TO A SANDBLASTER WHEN SO IT DOES HAVE A FEW ISSUES. PAINT IS FACTORY COLOR...NOT FACTORY PAINT. AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICS...THERE ARE BUBBLES AND RUST IN AREAS ABOUT THE CAR. I HAVE MORE DETAILED PICTURES OF THE DAMAGED AREAS IF YOU WOULD LIKE A CLOSER VIEW.
THE DARK GREEN VINYL TOP HAS BUBBLED IN A LOT OF SPOTS SO UNDERLYING DAMAGE TO THE METAL IS EVIDENT. THESE CARS ARE KNOWN FOR RUST IN THE TUNNEL WINDOW CHANNEL. THIS WAS NO DIFFERENT WHEN I GOT THE CAR, I REPAIRED IT BUT TIME HAS BUBBLED THE REPAIRS.
THE GLASS IN THE CAR IS ALL ORIGINAL AND FACTORY TINT. ONLY DAMAGE IS A SMALL BULLS EYE IN THE FRONT WIND SHIELD THAT WAS REPAIRED MANY YEARS AGO. WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR THE OWNER TOLD ME IT LEAKED AND NEEDED REPAIRED BUT I NEVER NOTICED ANY DAMPNESS OR WET CARPETING AT THE TIME. THE CAR WAS NOT EQUIPPED WITH POWER WINDOWS.
FRONT GRILL IS CRACK FREE AND LAST KNOWN THE HEADLIGHT DOORS STILL WORKED. HEADLIGHT DOORS ARE UNDAMAGED AS WELL.
FRONT AND REAR BUMPERS WILL NEED RE CHROMED. THERES NO RUST OR DENTS, BUT AS TYPICAL WITH THE BODY SHAPE, THE HOOD DRIPS ON THE BUMPER AND AFTER A FEW YEARS THE CHROME IS WORN AWAY IN TWO SPOTS. A COMMON PROBLEM ON THESE BODY CARS.
THE CAR IS A STRIPE DELETE CAR WITH JUST THE R/T EMBLEMS ON ITS QUARTER PANELS AND HEADLIGHT DOOR.

INTERIOR:
CLASSIC CHRYSLER DARK GREEN INTERIOR. BUCKET SEATS. VINYL WITH BENCH REAR. REAR SEATS ARE LIKE NEW, PASSENGERS SEAT ALSO LIKE NEW. THE DRIVERS SEAT HAS A FEW RIPS IN THE UPRIGHT BUCKET. THE DASH IS LIKE NEW WITH NO CRACKS OR SPLITS. STEERING WHEEL IS CRACKED IN THE RIM BUT NOT MISSING PIECES. STANDARD DASH SETUP WITH BLACK TRIM AND ROCKER SWITCHES. TO MY KNOWLEDGE ALL THE GAUGES EXCEPT THE CLOCK WERE IN WORKING ORDER. FACTORY RADIO WAS REPLACED WITH A CASSETTE UNIT... YES WAS STATE OF THE ART AT THE TIME. CARPET WILL NEED REPLACED. THE HEADLINER HAS A FEW SMALL HOLES IN IT BUT OTHER WISE IN GREAT SHAPE.

TO SUM IT UP. THIS CAR IS IN NEED OF A GOOD RESTORATION. IT HAS GREAT POTENTIAL IN THE RIGHT HANDS AND WILL MAKE ONE HELL OF A HEAD TURNER WHEN FINISHED. THE BEST THING GOING FOR THIS IS IT IS A NUMBERS MATCHING, ORIGINAL R/T CAR THERES NOT MANY LEFT... AND THEY DONT MAKE THEM ANYMORE. (UNLESS YOU COUNT THE FOUR DOORS..BUT ANYWAY...) I HAVE INCLUDED THE FENDER TAG OPTION AS I HAVE GOTTEN A LOT OF REQUEST FOR ITS NUMBERS AND OPTION. THE PLATE ISNT IN THE BEST OF SHAPE SO I WILL DO MY BEST TO GET THE CODES RIGHT AS FOLLOWS:

VIF V88 26 END
G33 H51 J23? W21 M31 R11
A01 A04 B51 C16 C55 G11
F3 C89? F8 212 246527
386 D32 XS29 L9B 291879

PAYMENT CAN BE MADE BY CASH, CHECK OR MONEY ORDER (CAR DOESNT LEAVE THE PROPERTY UNTIL CHECK OR MONEY ORDER CLEARS..USUALLY 10 DAYS) BANK WIRE TRANSFER. I DO NOT ACCEPT PAY PAL ANYMORE DUE TO ISSUE STATED ABOVE. I AM NOT INTERESTED IN TRADES SO PLEASE DONT OFFER. WHAT I AM ASKING FOR IS WHAT THE STARTING BID IS, PLEASE DONT ASK ME "HOW MUCH WILL I TAKE FOR IT"...ITS ALREADY LISTED. ALL SALES ARE FINAL. I HAVE DISCLOSED ALL THE ISSUES I KNOW OF AND HAVE MORE PICTURES OF THE CAR AVAILABLE TO YOU. IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION PLEASE CONTACT ME. PICK UP OF THE CAR IS THE BUYERS RESPONSABILITY .

THANK YOU AND HAPPY BIDDING, BEST OF LUCK.

California Highway Patrol powers up with Charger Pursuits

Fri, Jul 22 2016

Residents of California, you'll want to adjust your rear-view mirrors and remain vigilant for the menacing maw of the Dodge Charger. The California Highway Patrol (CHP) ordered 580 Dodge Charger Pursuit cars to start replacing the organization's oldest vehicles. According to the CHP's director of communications, Fran Clader, these old cars are patrol versions of the Ford Crown Victoria, Ford Explorer and Dodge Charger. The cars will be delivered over the next two years with the majority equipped with Fiat Chrysler's 3.6-liter V6 engine. The unit makes 292 horsepower in the Charger and is found in everything from the Jeep Wrangler to the Chrysler 200. There will be a handful of Chargers with the 5.7-liter V8 found in the Charger R/T, but Dodge and Clader said they will just be used for training. Bick Pratt, head of FCA US government sales and operations, said the order represents a move back toward four-door police cars. "The CHP is ordering our Charger Pursuit vehicle to reintroduce the sedan into their patrol vehicle fleet," Pratt said. "That's important to us because it reflects a shift back to sedans by a progressive agency like the CHP." Chargers may show up in local law enforcement fleets. Pratt said departments will have the opportunity to also order Charger Pursuits through the CHP's contract. So wherever you are in California, if you see that famous crosshair grille in your rear-view mirror, be ready to pull over. Related video:

Mopar highlights wild SEMA creations, AWD Challenger Concept

Tue, Nov 3 2015

Thanks to 15,345 square feet of display area, FCA US' Mopar division certainly has ample space to display its parts and accessories at the SEMA Show. To lure attendees to check out all of those cars and components, the company is now revealing ten tuned vehicles for this year's aftermarket event. This isn't even the brand's whole fleet for the show, but it includes some major highlights for Dodge and Ram fans. A lack of traction traditionally makes rear-wheel-drive muscle cars dismal to drive when the weather gets slippery, but the Dodge Challenger GT AWD Concept (above) solves that age-old problem at SEMA. In addition to powering all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic, it boasts an angry-looking, wide-body kit with aggressively flared wheel arches. The asymmetrical stripe with Header Orange accents also adds some extra panache to the Destroyer Grey and Matte Black color scheme. The coupe can back up the macho look thanks to the Scat Pack 3 Performance Kit that adds 75 horsepower and 44 pound-feet of torque to the 5.7-liter V8. However, before you get too excited about driving one this winter, FCA US spokesperson Ariel Gavilan tells Autoblog: "It is only a concept." Mopar isn't done tuning Dodges for SEMA. The Charger Deep Stage 3 shows what's possible with the company's catalog by packing the Scat Pack 3, strut tower braces, coilover suspension kit, and bigger brakes. Meanwhile, the blacked-out Dart GLH Concept tries to harken back to the style of the famous Omni GLH by fitting a red-accented body kit, including a Mopar Performance aluminum hood. If the standard Ram 1500 Rebel is somehow too subdued, check out the Rebel X (right) in a vibrant shade called Copper. To be ready for anything offroad, it wears some muscular flares to fit 17-inch beadlock wheels and 35-inch Toyo tires. A concept, two-piece front skid plate protects the front. Drivers should also be comfortable no matter where they drive thanks to prototype Katzkin leather seats and a concept air-ride suspension. Chrysler enjoys some mods, as well. The 300 Super S has suave style with Matte Cerulean paint, concept 22-inch wheels, and a grille with little Mopar Ms dotted around it. Performance also sees a boost with a tuned engine, bigger brakes, and coilover kit. The gray 200 S Mopar is similarly stylish with a complete body kit, including a conceptual, dual-vented hood. Fiat and Ram's commercial models aren't left out of the SEMA fun, either.

Chrysler recalls 1.2 million Ram pickup trucks

Sat, 09 Nov 2013

Chrysler has announced that it will issue three separate recalls that will cover as many as 1.2 million Ram pickup trucks for "steering-system tie rods that may have been misaligned during assembly or steering-system service." The vast majority of these trucks were sold in the United States, though some trucks in Mexico, Canada or overseas will be called in, as well.
The largest of the three recalls covers an estimated 842,400 model-year 2003-2008 Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks. Two smaller campaigns will bring 294,000 model-year 2008-2012 Ram 2500 and 3500 pickups, chassis cabs and 2008 Ram 1500 4x4 Mega Cabs; plus 43,500 model-year 2008-2012 Ram 4500 and 5500 4x4 chassis cabs into the dealer to be checked and repaired if necessary.
This is a very large recall, and Chrysler says it is "casting the net wider than necessary to identify those vehicles that require repair." The automaker estimates that "as many as 726,000 may not need repair."
