68 Dodge Dart V8 Mopar: Not A Hemi! Great For Gts Clone on 2040-cars

Year:1968 Mileage:86000
Location:

NO RESERVE!!!

This is a super clean 68 dart 2 door hard top 318 automatic.  Perfect start for your hemi-dart clone or your big block GTS clone.  It starts, runs and drives great.  I purchased with the intention to turn it into an autocross car, but have too many other projects.  I will do my best to describe this car as accurately as possible.  

While the car is super clean, it IS NOT a show car.  This is 100% a driver car.  Chrome is decent but does have some pitting.  The car is original in all ways.  It still has the bone stock 318 and the high performance 2 barrel carb... LOL.  It drives straight, stops decent, heater works, the AC turns on and blows, but there is no cold air.  As best as I can tell, the system needs a charge. No rust underneath, floor pans are solid. Trunk is solid.  Still has the original bumper jack.  The car is so clean, I can't imagine there are actually 86,000 miles on it, but thats what the odometer says.  The car has been re-painted the original dark blue.  I don't know for sure when, but it looks like a 15-20 year old paint job.  The car has an open differential in it and it is NOT an 8 3/4.  Finally I just replaced the rear brakes.  Completely new pads, wheel cylinders, drums and wheel kit.  

Now for the not so nice.... Interior is dirty. Front seat is torn in several places. There is an oil leak, it appears to be a rear main.  There is a small dent/ding on the passenger side rear fender.  There is a slight exhaust leak right where the two exhaust manifold pipes merge into 1 collector.  Its not major, but it is there.  The car could use a slight tune up.  I never took the carb apart and I suspect it could use a good cleaning.  It has a slight bog right as you press the gas.  That being said, I drove it all this summer and just started the car today after sitting for the last month or so. it starts fine, idles nice and drives down the road with no problems. You could easily buy the car and drive it home if you want.  This is the perfect POWER TOUR car.  

I REPEAT.. NO RESERVE AUCTION - HIGH BIDDER WINS THIS CAR

Details:  I make no warranty on the car.  It is sold by me, (a private seller) as is.  I live near Milwaukee, WI.  Once I have received payment in full, I will load on an open trailer and deliver up to 100 miles from zip code 53018 for $200. I will also help deliver the car to a transporter of your choice, free of charge within 30 miles of 53018.  I will not ship your car, I will not deliver the car further than 100 miles from 53018.  It is your responsibility to get the car home. I'm simply willing to help out. 

Finally:  I have 100% positive feedback.  I will do whatever I can to make this a 100% positive transaction for you.  There is no funny business here.  No phantom bids, just a no reserve auction to buy a very nice car.  Buying a car online takes trust and lots of communication.  I will provide both.  I encourage you to stop by and see the car, ask questions or give me a call.  Send me an email, with your name/phone I will happily call you back.  Please no tire kickers.. no low ball offers.. The car is for sale locally, I reserve the right to end the auction early if it sells.  

I have a clear Wisconsin Title with no loan.  I will hand you the title and keys to the car once I receive the full purchase price.  My preference is cash or money transfer.  I will not accept any personal checks.    $500 is due immediately upon winning bid.  We will settle the remaining balance when you pick the car up.

Thanks for looking - Rob

Stellantis mega-merger gets approval from FCA, PSA shareholders

Mon, Jan 4 2021

MILAN — Shareholders of Fiat Chrysler and PSA Peugeot decisively voted Monday to merge the U.S.-Italian and French carmakers to create worldÂ’s 4th-largest auto company. Addressing separate meetings, both PSA Peugeot CEO Carlos Tavares and Fiat Chrysler Chairman John Elkann spoke of the “historic” importance of the vote, which combines legacy car companies that helped write the industrial histories of the United States, France and Italy. Before the merger is finalized, shares in the new company, to be called Stellantis, must the launched. It will be traded in Milan, New York and Paris. The marriage of PSA Peugeot and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is built on the promise of cost-savings in the capital-hungry industry, but what remains to be seen is if it will be able to preserve jobs and heritage brands in a global market still suffering from the pandemic. The deal will create the worldÂ’s fourth-largest carmaker, with the capacity to produce 8.7 million cars a year, behind Volkswagen, Toyota and Renault-Nissan, and create 5 billion euros in annual synergies.  “We are fully aware of the fact that together we will be stronger than individually,'' PSA CEO Carlos Tavares told a virtual gathering of eligible shareholders. “The two companies are in good health. These two companies have strong positions in their markets.” The new company will put together under one roof French mass-market carmakers Peugeot and Citroen, top-selling Jeep and Italian luxury and sports brands Maserati and Alfa Romeo - pooling companies that have helped define the industry in the United States, France and Italy. While the tie-up is billed as a merger of equals, the power advantage goes to PSA, with Tavares running Stellantis and holding the tie-breaking vote on the 11-seat board. Tavares is set to take full control of the company early this year, possibly by the end of January. Fiat Chrysler chairman John Elkann, heir to the Fiat-founding Agnelli family and Fiat ChryslerÂ’s biggest shareholder, will be the Stellantis chairman. Fiat Chrysler CEO Mike Manley will head North American operations, which is key to Tavares' long-time goal of getting a U.S. foothold for the French carmaker he has run since 2014, and the clear money-maker for Fiat Chrysler. Such a deal was long wanted by Fiat ChryslerÂ’s long-time CEO Sergio Marchionne, who had predicted the necessity of consolidation in the industry. He was unable to find a deal before his sudden death in July 2018.

2015 Dodge Challenger SRT 392

Mon, Mar 9 2015

I've just started reading the third installment in a planned five-book biography of Lyndon Baines Johnson, Master of the Senate, written by the incomparable Robert Caro. Conveniently, a recent trip to drive the BMW X6 M and 228i Convertible was to be staged in Austin, TX, within easy driving distance of LBJ's birthplace, Johnson City. And yes, the city is named for his family. Having completed my duties with the Bimmers, I borrowed the spangled 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT 392 you see above, to squire me around the Texas capitol for a weekend, and as a lift out to the Hill Country homestead of our 36th President. Johnson City isn't exactly a road trip mecca, but there's a pretty good brewery, a museum, the reconstructed LBJ house to take snapshots of, and it's a nice drive to get out there if you've got a 485-horsepower muscle car at your disposal. Driving Notes With the heroic Hellcat, this 392 and the R/T Scat Pack (that Brandon Turkus reviewed recently), there are more SRT-treated Challengers to choose from than ever before. There are 707 obvious reasons that the Hellkitty is the top dog (as it were), but there are important difference between this 392 and the Scat Pack, too. Both cars make use of the 6.4-liter Hemi V8 putting out 485 horsepower and 475 pound-feet of torque, but the 392 also gets an adaptive suspension, six-piston Brembo brake calipers (instead of four-piston), wider tires, leather and Alcantara seats, a heated steering wheel, a louder stereo and HID headlights. When LBJ was campaigning for his seat in the House of Representatives, he would've loved to have something as potent as this monster of a V8 under the hood of his canvassing car. The 6.4L snorts with authority before it sends the big coupe forward to just about any speed I'd ask of it, and with a quickness. Johnson was known for haranguing drivers to step on it, when all that stood between himself and a few more votes was the ability to fit one more stump speech into the day. The 392 feels as though it could cover a quarter of the state of Texas in a morning if you throttle down deep enough (faster even than the Johnson City Windmill, I'd guess). Though there's a six-speed manual available, I'm actually quite fond of the eight-speed automatic in the 392. The two-pedal setup better suits the fast-cruiser attitude of the car, and it never served up any poorly conceived shift logic when I left it in D. Of course, the roads are better now than they were in the 1930s and 40s, too.

Detroit Auto Show prankster 'damages' hundreds of thousands of dollars of cars

Thu, Jan 29 2015

Obtaining credentials for an auto show is generally a pretty selective process, especially at one of the world's premier shows, like Geneva, Los Angeles or Detroit. That didn't stop online prankster Dennis Roady from getting credentialed for the 2015 North American International Auto Show on behalf of a Russian YouTube channel to cover the show. While he wasn't brought on strictly to cause mischief, Roady couldn't help but have some fun at the expense of the product specialists during the serious business of covering the show. He took to an app called "Dude, Your Car," which allows Apple iPhone users to take snaps of vehicles and then edit them to add some serious, but fake, dents and scratches. Naturally, the pranking session was caught on video, where you can enjoy the sight of poor product specialists freaking out over damage to vehicles ranging from the Mercedes-Maybach S600 to the Audi R8 and a lovely Dodge Challenger. Take a look. News Source: howtoPRANKitup via YouTube, The Detroit News Humor Detroit Auto Show Audi Dodge Mercedes-Benz Coupe Luxury Performance Videos Sedan 2015 Detroit Auto Show prank
