1975 Dodge Dart Swinger, 2 door. 318 V-8, Auto trans, 8 1/4 rear with 2.45 gears.  Power steering, power disc brakes.  Completely rebuilt front suspension.  Car is nice.  

Car is pre-smog. No smog checks needed ever so you can modify anything you want under the hood. This car drives really nice and I would drive it anywhere and have driven it everywhere. 300 mile round trips from Lakewood, CA.  to Tehachapi and back with no problems. 250 mile round trip to Santa Barbara and back with zero problems. Countless trips to Hemet to visit family with zero defects. This is a great driving car.

Under the hood is a V-8, 318-2 barrell with electronic ignition. Engine is completely stock. Did an oil change about a month ago with 20w50 oil. Runs perfect. Carb has been professionally rebuilt and works great. Choke on 2 barrell carb works perfect on cold mornings. Car idles and runs great. Automatic transmission. Just had transmission serviced with new filter and fluid and adjusted the bands about 2 months ago. The 8 1/4 rear with 2.45 gears is like having an overdrive. Car cruises at 75mph on the freeway all day long at low rpm because of rear gear ratio. 

Car has power steering and power disc brakes that work great. The front suspension has been completely rebuilt and aligned. The heater works great. Blows very hot. All gauges work. All lights work. Wipers work. Everything works. Car has new carpet and new seats front and rear. Upholstery is new on all seats. Door panels and armrests are in great shape. I converted the car from a white and brown interior to an all black interior with new kick panels and door uppers too and it looks really good. Even has a new dash pad in it.

I added a Pioneer stereo, AM/FM with CD player and plug in for ipod to play through. Plus 4 new Speakers, 6 x 9's in rear and 5 inch speakers in front.

Has 15 inch Crager wheels with very good tires. 2 1/4 inch dual exhaust with Thrush mufflers. Not loud at all but you won't mistake it for a slant six either. Car sounds nice like a cruiser should.

Entire trunk has been sprayed with Rhino Liner truck bed liner to protect it from rust. The trunk is very solid. 

All in all this is a great car. It could use a repaint. It was painted 7 years ago and has been outside it's whole life, but the body is really straight and it would be easy work. I am only selling the car because my wife wants a car with A/C before this summer gets here and this car will be my down payment once I sell it. I really hate to part with it because it is such a good driving car but I have to. Hopefully someone will buy it and take good care of it and enjoy it as much as I have. 

Please send me a message if you have any questions,  Mike.

The last time Dodge recycled the Demon name, it was for a Miata fighter

Fri, Jan 20 2017

We and the rest of the automotive world are eagerly awaiting the reveal of the Dodge Challenger Demon. And why wouldn't we be? It's going to be a Hellcat, but with less weight, bigger fenders, more performance, and more Vin Diesel. This isn't the first time we've been excited about a Demon from Dodge, though. Ten years ago, Dodge had another demonic car, but it was very different from the new one. The Demon of 2007 was a lithe little roadster that looked primed and ready to take on the Miata, as well as the now-departed Solstice and Sky twins. The Demon was just under an inch shorter than the MX-5 and the Solstice, and it packed a 172 horsepower 2.4-liter four-cylinder that fell right between the Miata's 170 and the Solstice's 177 outputs. Dodge's estimated the curb weight, which for a concept is largely theoretical, also slotted between the two cars at 2600 pounds. That was about 150 more than the Mazda, and about 200 less than the Pontiac. The pitch perfect specifications were presented in a crisp two-seat roadster wrapper. In many ways, it looked like a baby Viper, with a menacing crosshair grille, slanted headlights, and fat rear fenders. The Demon's line's were brutally simple and geometric, too. They didn't seem far removed from the first-generation Audi TT. The interior was also plain and simple. The key highlights were a horizontal aluminum accent that ran the width of the dash, echoed by an aluminum-covered center console. The instrument cluster was uncluttered, with just four gauges, and the only controls were some climate knobs, a double-DIN head unit, and a six-speed manual. It turns out that the 2007 Demon didn't drive very well, though. You see, we actually drove this concept back in the day, and like many concepts, it still had a long way to go to be production ready. The gearbox would grind, the ride quality was terrible. However, the interior was roomy, and the engine sounded suitably grumbly, if a bit coarse. At the time, we said Dodge should absolutely build the little roadster. In retrospect, the company probably made the right decision not to invest in the Demon. The small rear drive sports car segment was, and still is, an extremely niche market. It would have been a big investment for little return, something FCA today is trying to avoid. This is all before taking into account the fact that the recession was just around the corner. In the end, we can't be too sad though.

Dodge to reveal Hellcat-powered Challenger in Detroit?

Fri, 10 Jan 2014

On top of all the other performance car debuts slated for next week's Detroit Auto Show, we might be able to add one more to the list - the new, supercharged Hellcat V8 from Chrysler. According to new reports, the rumored 640-horsepower mill is likely to cross the Motor City stage in the engine bay of a Dodge Challenger.
As AllPar points out, though, there may be more news than just the fire-breathing engine. While we've seen spy photos of the Hellcat testing under the hood of the current Challenger, there's a very fair chance that it won't arrive until the muscle car is refreshed later this year. The question now is whether that refresh will be shown off alongside the new engine in Detroit, or if it'll be saved, perhaps for the New York Auto Show.
Other details dug up by AllPar include potential transmissions for the supercharged engine - the Mopar-minded site is expecting an eight-speed automatic or a Tremec six-speed manual. Prices, meanwhile, could be in the same elevated range as the Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, at $70,000 to $80,000.

Chrysler celebrates 30 years of minivans with special editions

Tue, 03 Sep 2013

It's been known by many names: the Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Caravan, Plymouth Voyager, Chrysler Voyager, Lancia Voyager, Volkswagen Routan, Ram Cargo Van... but the bottom line is that Chrysler's minivans have defined the segment for 30 years now. In fact, Chrysler says it has sold 13 million of them since 1983, helped along by the Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan that accounted for nearly half of all minivans sold in the United States just last year. So to celebrate this three-decade milestone, the Auburn Hills auto has announced a pair of new special editions.
The 2014 Chrysler Town & Country 30th Anniversary Edition starts the Touring-L trim and includes such special touches as 17-inch wheels, unique badging, available Granite Crystal Pearl paint and an interior decked out in black Alcantara and Nappa leather, piano black trim and all the optional bells and whistles bundled in.
The 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan 30th Anniversary Edition, meanwhile, starts off with either the SE or SXT trims and also upgrades with 17-inch alloys as well as color-keyed mirrors and an interior with silver stitching, piano black trim, power everything, and of course, those special badges.
