1973 Dodge Dart V8 (318),auto,p/s, Disc Brakes, Running/ Driving Project, Cheap on 2040-cars
Las Vegas, Nevada, United States
Up for auction is a nice 1973 Dodge Dart PROJECT car. It has a V8, 318 with a 904 automatic trans. The car came equipped with Power Steering, and front disc brakes. The car runs and drives but, had previously been sitting for many years before I bought the car. I flushed the tank and lines, did some brake work, fluid change, and some carb work and she fired right up and ran well. Prior to that she was parked her in Nevada for many years. The car runs and drives but, I suggest that you trailer the car to it's destination. The car needs to be gone through before any long trips. The body is very straight on the car, and the only rust issues are on the roof from the old vinyl top that was on the car. The under side looks great, the trunk looks great, and that is rare with these A body style cars. The car will be sold to the highest bidder and there is NO RESERVE on the car!! I have a clear title in hand for the car. Engine/ Trans: The engine is a non numbers matching 318 that seems to run pretty well. She has a 2 barrel carb sitting on top of the engine. The motor starts right up, no knocking or smoking at all and idles well. I do not know any history on the motor that is in the car. I have driven the car around the neighborhood but, that as far as I have test drove her. She drove decent, stopped straight and overall not bad. I had to disconnect the power steering though as the steering box was leaking from the pitman arm area. I left everything in place, just pulled the belt off. The trans is a nice shifting 904 that seems to work just fine. I do not see any leaks from the motor of trans after she sits, which is a nice surprise. Interior/ Exterior: The interior is all there just needs some TLC as the summer sun did dry everything out. The seats do need to be recovered, needs new carpet and some new door panels to spruce her up. The doors open and close fine, windows roll up and down fine. The lights work on the car, blinkers work, and the running lights work. On the dash the speedo is not working, and the gas gauge is not working either. The door buzzer did work but, that was disconnected...drove me crazy. The exterior is very straight overall with just a small hole in the lower left quarter that was a previous rust repair. There are very few dents on the car and the car has it's original sheet metal. The car will need a new vinyl top, and some body work done to the roof as she has scaling and holes from rust. The roof can be repaired as she is not to far gone yet. The rims and tires are old but, the hold air just fine and are good rollers. The car has a fender tag, if you want the info just email me. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me, and I will respond ASAP. The car is a PROJECT type car! The winning bidder is required to pay a $500 non refundable deposit due within 24 hours of winning the car! The car is being sold " As Is" due to it's age. The deposit must be paid through Paypal. The remaining balance is due within 3 days of the auction closing, and the final payment may be made with a Cashiers check, wire transfer or cash in person. The car must be picked up within 2 weeks of the auction closing, and my zip code is 89131 for shipping purposes. Please email me with any questions, and good luck!! |

Chrysler patents smarter minivan folding seats
Thu, 02 Jan 2014It's frightening to think of how quickly the mice would have overtaken us if we hadn't stayed one step ahead of them with better mousetraps. We'll never have to worry about that in our relentlessly re-engineered world, though. Case in point: Chrysler has been granted a patent by the US Patent and Trademark Office for an improved design of the already wondrous Stow 'n' Go seating found in the automaker's Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans.
Introduced in 2005, the Stow 'n' Go was improved in 2008, and based on the drawings of this third-generation improvement, the new design appears to allow stowage of the second row of seats without having to move the front-row seats forward as much. It look like it also involves fewer operations and moving parts, with a portion of the seatback being incorporated into the flat floor when the seats are stowed, as opposed to having a completely separate cover.
It's possible that the innovation may appear on the next-generation minivans expected in 2015, but Chrysler isn't commenting on the patent.
2013 Dodge Challenger R/T Redline revs into Chicago
Fri, 01 Feb 2013When Dodge released the Challenger Rallye Redline last year, it brought a new dimension of styling to the car's classic muscle car lines, but it was only available in V6 form lacking the oomph to back up its sinister appearance. To remedy that situation, Dodge is unveiling the Challenger R/T Redline, powered by a Hemi V8 engine, at the Chicago Auto Show.
Other than the extra cylinders, most of the R/T's Redline package carries over from the Rallye model including the custom-look 20-inch black chrome wheels with red paint accents, but the R/T version of the package gets more of a retro look to the side stripes with graphite graphics featuring Redline lettering. Cars equipped with the six-speed manual transmission will get a performance-tuned, low-restriction exhaust allowing the engine to produce 375 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque; cars with the five-speed auto are rated at 372 hp and 400 lb-ft, but they do offer a bright chrome Mopar t-handle shifter and steering wheel paddle shifters.
The R/T Redline Group is offered only on cars painted in Billet Silver, Granite Crystal, Bright White and Pitch Black, and it adds just $1,995 to the MSRP of the Challenger R/T (starting at $31,990) and the Challenger R/T Plus (starting at $33,990), which adds features like Nappa leather and Boston Acoustics speakers.
Dodge gives 2015 Viper slight power increase, new GT model
Tue, 02 Sep 2014With its troubling sales figures, the newly rechristened SRT Dodge Viper needs to come out swinging for 2015. To do that, Dodge has made a number of tweaks and changes that will hopefully carry the V10-powered sports car into more successful days.
First up for 2015 is a new GT model, which aims to marry the reasonable price of the base car with the adjustable suspension and trick stability control program of the GTS model. The GT also sports a cabin that's covered in Alcantara suede and Nappa leather as standard.
Also new for 2015 is the SRT TA 2.0 Special Edition, which expands on last year's Viper TA by adding new aerodynamic bits and bobs, including a larger rear wing, which ups downforce at 150 miles per hour from 278 pounds to 400 pounds.
