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

2015 Dodge Viper getting small increase in power

Tue, 29 Jul 2014

The Viper is used to being the most powerful car in the Dodge and SRT stables, but the arrival of the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat means that's no longer the case. The serpentine supercar is, however, reportedly getting a small boost in output for 2015, amounting to all of five horsepower.
The increase was uncovered by Road & Track courtesy of the SAE J1349 certification process to which Detroit's Big Three automakers submit themselves and which reports the Viper's output at 645 hp instead of the 640 it was rated at until now. There are a hundred factors that could have contributed to the relatively mild boost in output (best guess? nothing at all changed...), but we doubt anyone's going to complain about some extra horses under the hood.
The five-horsepower boost brings the Viper that much closer to the 650-hp Chevy Corvette Z06, not to mention the 707-hp Hellcat, but the Viper's impressive power-to-weight ratio ought to mean it'll have little problem keeping up in a straight line - which is just one of the reasons why Chrysler won't shoe-horn the Hellcat into the Viper: as R&T points out, the supercharged engine is too heavy and the blower makes it too tall to fit in the Viper's engine bay.

Dodge Viper to out-Hell the Hellcat with supercharged V10?

Wed, 20 Aug 2014

The Viper wouldn't be the Viper if it wasn't the most powerful model under the Chrysler umbrella. But with the arrival of the Hellcat engine in the Dodge Charger and Challenger, the Viper has fallen behind in the bragging rights department: where the new supercharged V8 produces 707 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque, the naturally aspirated V10 offers "only" 640 hp and 600 lb-ft - gargantuan output figures by almost any other standard, but crucially behind on the SRT power scale. Conner Avenue is going to have to do something about that.
Although the Hellcat's engine reportedly won't fit under the Viper's hood, SRT is now rumored to have another trick up its sleeve: supercharge the existing V10. According to the Pentastar performance enthusiasts at allpar.com, Chrysler has already taken delivery of the first such prototype engines so that it can begin the process of fitting it into an upgraded Viper.
The spooled ten-pot is tipped to produce around 800 hp and 650 lb-ft of torque. More than that and the Viper's drivetrain, chassis and bodywork would have to be substantially reworked. Though beefier transmissions are available, fitting them would reportedly set off a domino-game of changes required to handle the added torque. Which may be something Chrysler would be prepared to do for the next-generation model, but in the meantime, 800 hp could prove enough to put the Viper back atop the Mopar performance ladder where it belongs, and give it an edge against the new Corvette Z06 to rekindle sales.

Dodge Challenger Hellcat drift video is pure horsepower porn

Fri, Mar 27 2015

We could listen to the whining, snarling 6.2-liter Hemi V8 in the Dodge Challenger and Charger Hellcats all day long. The noise just sounds like power that's being barely restrained and is everything about a muscle car that's right. The team at Pennzoil apparently understands that allure, too. The oil company has a new video where it lets the engine roar for over a minute, while a Challenger does some big, smoky drifts through an abandoned city. The whole stunt is edited together in a slickly produced way that looks fantastic. Although, the big finale might go a little too far and starts straining believability. Nonetheless, the Hellcat's wonderful noise is still the star of this show. Related Video:
