Model: Charger
Exterior Color: B3 Blue
Trim: R/T
Interior Color: Black
Up for sale is a 1970 Dodge Charger R/T. I recently retired to a remote location and rarely if ever drive the car so It's time to pass it on to someone wanting to use the car as should be used. The car is a true R/T with a rare A34 Super Trac Pack option, which includes a 4:10 Dana. This is a consistent trophy winning car that has been restored to very original condition. I did not start the restoration so I unfortunately do not have before and after pics of the previous owners work; however, I have the original build sheet and plenty of my receipts as well as well as a folder full of those from the previous owner. The motor is a non-matching 440 (bored .30 over) with a brand new Demon 750 carb. The carb was recently professionally installed and set up. Nothing wrong with the previous carb, just wanted a Demon. The motor has been professionally machined, balanced, and reassembled with new high performance internal parts including cam, lifters, pistons, etc. The heads were decked and given a street performance valve job, which included new valves, springs, guides, etc. Currently there are approximately 3k miles on the rebuild; however, the engine remains highly detailed, as shown in photo, and shows very well. I have the invoice for the complete engine rebuild which details all the work performed. The exhaust manifolds are stock with 3" FlowMaster pipes. The car runs and sounds excellent producing plenty of power. The car was painted original B3 blue approximately 8-9 years ago. There are a few touched up nicks and some minor paint checking due to the car being driven and not trailered around. As I mentioned, the car is a consistent trophy winner. The interior is in excellent condition. The original seats are in great condition, the dash is intact without cracks, the carpet and headliner are in great condition also. The car has the factory tic toc tac option, which is non-operational. I believe the tach is shorted and is need of a rebuild. All other guages work; however, the fuel guage reads 3/4 full when topped off. The radio is non-original; however, no metal was disturbed to fit the aftermarket radio. The door locks do not work simply because I have not taken the time to install the linkage. I have the parts, but never leave the car anywhere so I never got around to it. The under carriage of the car is black and very clean. The trunk is also very nice and has a new mat. I'm not certain as to what metal has been replaced other than both rear quarters and possibly the trunk floor. The quarters were professionally installed with all correct factory welds. The woodgrain wheel is not correct for the car; however, the wheel and horn pad are in near mint condition with no cracks, splits, gouges, and very minimal wear. The rally wheels are also correct per the build sheet and tires have plenty of tread. I researched the hood graphics and was told by a guy with the same car, same color, and graphics that it was an available option. This is overall a very nice car to drive, show, or both. Feel free to ask questions prior to bidding and I will get back to you asap. Seller reserves the right to end the auction at any time as the vehicle is also being advertised locally. Thanks for looking!

Brits recreate iconic Bullitt chase scene
Tue, 13 May 2014Recreating the famous chase scene from Bullitt has become almost an art form in its own right. We've seen it done in a music video, with scale models and even in commercials. There are few films that are as defined by a single scene as the 1968 classic. Even if you don't know a single beat of the plot, the Highland Green Ford Mustang racing a Dodge Charger through the hilly streets of San Francisco is famous. It's so well known that the Silverstone Classic has created a homage to promote its celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Mustang at this year's event in July.
Filmed around the famous UK circuit, the short film generally gets the key points of the scene right. It even has a green Volkswagen Beetle that keeps reappearing, as in the movie. Unfortunately, its Steve McQueen stand-in looks a little too old for the role. While the video shortens the chase considerably, it's still great to see these '60s behemoths leaning and sliding around the track. Scroll down for a touch of nostalgia thanks to one of the greatest scenes ever in cinema - we've got both the recreation and the original chase seen from the movie waiting for you.
Pontiac Aztek enjoys rebirth thanks to Millennials
Fri, Sep 11 2015Apparently, Millennials – those between 18 and 34 – aren't afraid to look different on the road, and they like performance, too. A new study by Edmunds is discovering some surprising vehicle choices by this group. Among them, the long-derided Pontiac Aztek is getting a new day in the sun with 25.5 percent its buyers coming from this generation in the first half of 2015. For comparison, Millennials represent an average of 16.8 percent of used car purchases. The Aztek is slowly shaking its reputation as a styling abomination, which seems tied to its appearance on Breaking Bad. The show premiered in 2008, and the Pontiac has been on this list for four of the past five years, according to Edmunds. It even led the pack in 2010. A recent Retro Review from MotorWeek also showed that the crossover wasn't always so hated. While it's still a shock to see the Aztek on any popularity list, the awkward-looking crossover only ranks sixth among Millennials. The vehicle with the biggest portion of buyers from the generation is the Dodge Magnum with 27.6 percent. According to Edmunds, the bluntly styled wagon is especially popular in Detroit and Chicago. The Chrysler Pacifica comes in a close second at 27.3 percent. When it comes to used cars, value and utility appear to trump just about anything else for many Millennial buyers," Edmunds analyst Jeremy Acevedo said in the report. Young buyers aren't afraid of sporty rides, either. The Subaru WRX has 26.4 percent Millennial buyers to rank third place on the list, and the Volkswagen R32 takes fifth at 25.7 percent. Just a few points lower in seventh place is the Nissan GT-R at 25.4 percent, and the final performance machine in 10th place is the Lexus IS-F with 24.7 percent. Related Video:
Fiat Chrysler to get $105M fine from NHTSA for recall woes
Sun, Jul 26 2015The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is about to send a powerful message to automakers doing business in the United States, assuming reports of an upcoming $105 million fine against Fiat Chrysler Automobiles comes to fruition. In addition to the record-setting monetary fine, according to The Wall Street Journal, FCA will have to accept an independent auditor that will monitor the company's recall and safety processes and will be forced to buy back certain recalled vehicles. In other cases, such as with Jeep Grand Cherokee and Liberty models with gas tanks that could potentially catch fire in certain types of accidents, FCA will offer financial encouragement for owners to get their recall work done or to trade those older vehicles in on new cars, according to the report. FCA could reportedly reduce its fines if it meets certain conditions, though those remain unclear at this time. These actions against FCA are being taken after NHTSA began a probe into the automaker over almost two dozen separate instances where the government claims FCA failed to follow proper procedures for recalls and safety defects. Included in those safety lapses are more than 11 million vehicles currently in customer hands. These penalties and fines are separate from the investigation over security problems with Chrysler's Uconnect system that allowed hackers to obtain remote access into key vehicle systems in 1.4 million vehicles.
