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

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

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax

Thu, 24 Jul 2014



The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.

Chrysler almost smothered the Hellcat before it lived

Thu, 06 Nov 2014

Chrysler's 6.2-liter supercharged Hellcat V8 was an absolute sensation from the very moment it was announced, and honestly, how could it not have been? Packing 707 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque, its numbers immediately put every other production muscle car (and many supercars) to shame. Plus, we soon learned that would be wrapped in a package retailing for around $60,000 - a pittance compared to other vehicles offering similar grunt. However, the Hellcat almost never got the chance to rumble under the hood of the Challenger and Charger.
The Hellcat was initially proposed back in 2011, back when Fiat was deciding its future strategy for Chrysler Group, according to Automotive News. At the time, the company was just emerging from its bankruptcy doldrums, and an ultra-high-performance V8 wasn't exactly a must-have item. The program didn't move forward. However, SRT engineers kept fighting, according to AN, and four months later, they received the green light to pull the project off the shelf and continue developing the Hellcat. The muscle car world is certainly better for that decision.
The work of those engineers focused on taking Chrysler's standard 6.2-liter V8 and making it reliably handle all of the extra power from the supercharger. "It came down to micron levels of changes in the crank to be able to withstand the pressures of the engine," said Chris Cowland, director of advanced and SRT powertrain, to Automotive News. The changes amounted to switching out about 91 percent of the parts to make the Hellcat, including some quite minuscule alterations. For example, the washer holding the supercharger pulley is embedded with industrial diamonds to keep it from slipping.
