1966 Dodge Dart Gt Convertible Numbers Matching V8, Most Restoration Done! on 2040-cars

Year:1966 Mileage:97000
Location:

Nashville, Tennessee, United States

Nashville, Tennessee, United States

Original #s matching 273 V8, original #s matching automatic in the console professionally rebuilt ($1,100.), bodywork 90% done, original bucket seats professionally reupholstered ($900), runs and drives great, easy to finish restoration of a real (Not a clone!) rare numbers matching 1966 DART GT V8 Convertible!

Car was originally yellow, now in black primer; see photos of restoration in progress.

This car had factory undercoating and/or rustproofing treatment when new, much of which remains.

This car runs and drives beautifully; the numbers matching 273 V8 purrs beautifully. 
The original numbers matching Torqueflite automatic transmission was just rebuilt.
New muffler, new battery, good brakes, shocks, frame, undercarriage, etc.

97,000 actual miles!

Most of the bodywork has been done (over $3,000 spent on body), only minor dents and finishing details remain.
Original seats have been professionally reupholstered ($900). Needs carpet and interior detail work.  

Convertible top works good manually, is serviceable, but needs to be replaced to complete the restoration properly.

Tires have good tread, but are older.  I would recommend replacing them before you drive home.  I drive this car locally but would not trust the tires on the Interstates.  Of course, if you're trailering it home, you can replace them later.

I have owned this car for many years.  I simply do not have the money to complete the restoration now. 
My loss is your gain!

When the restoration is finished, this car could easily be a $30,000 car at a collector car auction, etc.  Here is an opportunity for someone to finish the job and make a very good profit, or finish it and just enjoy this beautiful rare Mopar!  You could even drive it like it is and restore it gradually while you are driving it!

The title is clear, in my name, so transfer of title is easy and trouble-free.

$500 deposit within 24 hours, balance in 7 days in cash, or verifiable Cashier's Check, or bank-to-bank transfer.

Pick up or Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer.   Delivery is available at $1 per mile, within a reasonable distance, if the car is paid for in advance.

Thank you for looking, bidding on and buying my car!  The winning bidder will get quite a nice, rare bargain here!

Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat gets 22 mpg

Thu, 18 Sep 2014

With its crazy 707 horsepower on tap and roughly $60,000 starting price, the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat has been one of the most talked about cars of the summer, maybe even the year. However, there's always been one lingering question about the behemoth that Dodge has waited to answer until now - its fuel economy. The EPA ratings for the muscle car are finally out, and the numbers are actually pretty impressive for a vehicle with this much power.
A 2015 Challenger Hellcat with the eight-speed automatic is rated at 22 miles per gallon highway, 13 mpg city and 16 mpg combined. Opting for the six-speed manual drops those figures to 21 mpg highway, 13 mpg city and 16 mpg combined.
"As the fastest muscle car ever, the Challenger Hellcat can run 10-second ETs [elapsed times] at the track, and then get 22 miles per gallon on the drive home. With a starting price of $59,995, there's nothing else that even comes close," said Dodge and SRT President Tim Kuniskis in the company's release.

Chrysler recalls 350k vehicles over ignition switches

Thu, 25 Sep 2014

Chrysler has announced a recall covering 349,442 vehicles due to ignition switches that can either become stuck or move without warning. All of the affected vehicles are from the 2008 model year, and were built before May 12, 2008.
The automaker has learned that ignition keys on some vehicles "may not fully return to the 'ON' position after rotation to the 'START' position during engine-startup," the company said in a statement. Additionally, "an ignition key may not fully return to the 'ON' position after rotation to the 'START' position and may inadvertently move through the 'ON' position to 'ACCESSORY' or 'OFF.'"
Chrysler says it is unaware of any related injuries, and notes that while reduced braking, engine or steering power is possible in such instances, the airbags are not affected. The later stands in contrast to General Motors' recent rash of high-profile recalls, and it's an important distinction that Chrysler (understandably) felt necessary to call out in bold print in its press release.
