I am selling my 68 Dodge dart that I have been working on for last 5 years. It started life as a California 6cly car and was going to be turned into a Hemi dart. So the car was stripped down , the rear wheels wells have been radius like a 68 Hurst Hemi Dart, the body was smoothed and painted with PPG Viper Red. It has new bumpers, weather striping, taillight lens, marker lights, windshield, all bright parts polished and cleaned or replaced. Underneath front suspension all rebuilt, new torsion bars, in the rear it has new super stock shocks, new super stock leaf springs. The front brakes are b-body disc brakes with new bearings, rotors, calipers and pads. Rear brakes are the 11 x 2 inch drums used on the original hemi darts, with all new drums, shoes, wheel cylinders. It has the 8 3/4 rear end with the 489 center section with new 391 gears and new possi unit, also has custom axles. The trans is a rebuilt 727 automatic with manual shift body, 2800 stall converter and new Cheetah Turbo Action shifter. Money did not allow for a hemi so it has a rebuilt healthy but streetable 440 with a mopar hydraulic cam, Edlebrock intake, 750 Holley carb, TCI headers, new Griffan aluminum radiator, electric fuel pump, Mallory ignition. The interior is all new, seats , headliner and carpet. Gauges have been rebuilt and lights, turn signals, brake lights all work. This is a really nice car, ultra clean and ready to enjoy. I have invested a ton of money and realize I won't recoup most of it. Here is your chance to step into a complete car for a fraction of the cost to build it.

Dodge Dart Registry helps you crowdsource money for your next ride [w/video]

Wed, 23 Jan 2013

To be honest, we're surprised something like this didn't pop up sooner. Chrysler is riffing on gift registries for couples getting married or expecting babies and cross-pollinating it with a social media funding website like Kickstarter to help customers buy its 2013 Dodge Dart. The Dodge Dart Registry allows people to build and customize a new Dart exactly how they want it, then let other people purchase some or all of the components as gifts.
The registry lets you add features like dark headlights, dual exhaust, various wheels and even interior options without choosing a specific trim level. This sounds a lot like the system Scion uses to let its customers configure cars, and this could be a great idea for Dodge. Of course, this system has the added benefit of being a social media affair for you to share with your friends... you know, so they can help pay for some of the parts, too.
The best thing about the registry is that you can configure your dream Dart from the comfort of your home computer, which strikes us as much better than walking around Bed, Bath and Beyond for the better part of an afternoon with an electronic scanner. The one thing that Dodge doesn't offer? "Thank You" cards. Those are on you.

Watch Jay Leno drive an ex-highway patrol '61 Dodge Polara

Tue, May 17 2016

The latest vehicle to swing by Jay Leno's Garage is a 1961 Dodge Polara. This one was used by the California Highway Patrol half a century ago, ordered specially by the state police instead of the Darts that were usually used by law-enforcement. After sitting out in the sun for a few decades, it recently underwent a comprehensive, ground-up restoration by the historians and craftsmen at the Automobile Club of Southern California. As you can see for yourself, the result of the restoration is really quite stunning. The ACSC apparently spared no expense, bringing the 413-cubic-inch V8 back up to working order, along with the emergency lighting, radio, certified speedometer... the works. In the process they even found the engine cranked out more than the factory quote of 325 horsepower, recording 332 hp and 406 pound-feet of torque on the dyno. The Polara CHP cruiser hadn't even been back out on the freeway since the restoration was finished. But after getting the full run-down from the guys responsible for its resuscitation, Jay wasted little time in bringing it back to its natural habitat.

Dodge Charger Pursuit nets quickest lap in police car test

Mon, 30 Sep 2013

We wouldn't advocate trying to outrun the police, no matter what you're driving and no matter what they are. But if you see a Dodge Charger bearing down on you with blue lights flashing in your rearview mirror, you'd better think twice before attempting to flee, because the Charger Pursuit has once again emerged as the fastest police cruiser out there.
In the latest Police Vehicle Evaluation held by the Michigan State Police at Grattan Raceway, Dodge says its new Charger Pursuit AWD posted a lap time of 1:33.85. That's quicker than any of the other law enforcement vehicles present, but also makes it the quickest all-wheel-drive cruiser available to law-enforcement officials. That may not make it the quickest of all time, but that honor belongs to the rear-drive Dodge Charger Pursuit, which cuts a fraction of a second off its AWD counterpart's time with a 1:33.70. But in regions where the extra traction could come in handy, that's as negligible a difference as we've ever seen.
Of course, the annual PVE sessions held by the Michigan State Police take in to account a wide variety of performance tests, including top speed, acceleration, braking, handling, fuel economy and ergonomics. The MSP has yet to reveal its full findings from its 2014 model year tests, but we'll be sure to bring them to you when they are published.
