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!!

Dodge celebrates big B-day with 100th Anniversary Editions muscle cars

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

Being in business for 100 years is a HUGE milestone, so we hope Dodge has more in mind to celebrate its centennial than just a special edition package for the 2014 Charger and Challenger. Called the 100th Anniversary Edition package, this collection of cosmetic enhancements will be available in limited quantities for both cars at a cost of $2,500.
Ordering a Charger or Challenger with the 100th Anniversary Edition package means starting with either a V6-powered SXT Plus or V8-powered R/T Plus model. They can each be ordered in many colors, but only the High-Octane Red Pearl Coat above is an anniversary exclusive. Each car also comes with an anniversary-exclusive set of 20-inch, five-spoke wheels with what Dodge calls "Granite Crystal pockets," a texture that's also mirrored on each car's grille.
Of course, there are commemorative badges galore affixed to the exterior of each car, including "Dodge Est. 1914" fender badges and "100" logos on the center caps of each wheel. The styling theme of each car's interior is a bit more interesting, with Dodge designers trying to evoke "the patina and machinist legacy of John and Horace Dodge," the company's founders. To that end, the leather interior can be had in Molten Red or Foundry Black Nappa, and each features a custom cloud overprint that makes the hide look like a working man's dirty dungarees. Designers also used brass-colored accent stitching on the interior's leather trim pieces, and affixed more "Dodge Est. 1914" badges to the front seat backs and floor mats. We do like the flat-bottomed steering wheel, and the Challenger 100th Anniversary Edition gets exclusive white gauges faces and the Charger black. The "100" on each car's speedometer is also highlighted in red.

2013 Dodge Dart GT

Mon, 16 Dec 2013

My younger brother bought a Dodge Dart earlier this summer. It's a basic SXT, in Maximum Steel Metallic, with the 2.0-liter engine, a six-speed automatic transmission and not a whole lot else. Unfortunately, at the time, the Dart was one of the few cars in the compact class I'd never driven. I didn't know a lot about it, and therefore, didn't have a lot to say when he bought it. I think the words "based on an Alfa," popped out when I first saw it.
As it turns out, he's grown quite fond of the dark gray sedan, so it was with some degree of enthusiasm that I paid him a visit in this bright-orange Dart GT. I was excited to see what it was about the Dart that he enjoyed so much, despite my tester featuring a different engine, transmission and a lot more tech. After a week with the car, though, I must say: I don't quite see what all the fuss is about.

Chrysler slows minivan production, hasn't built VW Routan this year

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

Chrysler has slowed production of its Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans this week, Automotive News reports. The Windsor, Ontario plant will cut its three shifts from eight hours each to four hours each in an effort "to align production with market demand," a Chrysler spokesperson told AN. Chrysler also builds the closely related Routan minivan for Volkswagen at its Ontario facility, but has not built a single example thus far in 2013.
Sales of Chrysler's minivans fell 15 percent for the first two months of 2013, and a large part of that has to do with the 26-percent drop of the Grand Caravan alone (the T&C was only down by one percent). According to Automotive News data, as of March 1, Chrysler had an unsold inventory of 24,713 Town and Country models and 18,547 Grand Caravans - a 69- and 43-day supply, respectively.
"No sense running full speed now, then have a lot of vehicles sitting around a few months down the line," Chrysler spokeswoman Jodi Tinson told AN. Full production is expected to resume again on March 18.
