I am selling my 1991 Dodge Shadow “Shelby CSX” convertible to make room for another recent purchase. I am moving this car due to space limitations, there is no problem with the car.

For the record, the last production vehicles produced by Shelby for Dodge were the 1989 Shelby CSX and Dakota. Dodge Shadow convertibles were made from 1991-1993. So this is obviously not a real Shelby, and I am not presenting it as such.

This is really a tribute car, or a concept of what a CSX convertible might have looked like if the relationship had continued into 1991.

This car was made from a 1991 Shadow that had over 100,000 miles. It was stripped to the shell, and rebuilt using NOS, or like-new components. The mileage (16,7xx) shown is the true mileage from the conversion. That is the true mileage for the drivetrain, suspension, etc.

The car is well maintained, clean, and drives like new. The major flaw is the headliner (the 6” strip) needs to be replaced. The glue dried, and the fabric was removed when it started sagging.

The highlights of the car include:

? 2.5 L inline four, turbo and intercooled

? Rear disc brake conversion

? Koni adjustable shocks with performance springs at all four corners

? Cross drilled rotors with powerdoated calipers, and SS brake lines.

? Turbos unleashed Garrett turbo

? A555 close ratio 5 speed transmission

? 1989 Sheby CSX fabric on doors, seats

? Recaro front buckets

? Custom Shelby dash plaque

? Carroll Shelby autographed tachometer

? Shelby Turbo boost gauge

? 1989 Shelby CSX ground effects, including front air dam, rear fascia, side skirts with door panels, and grill

? Fiberride Shelby wheels from an ’89 CSX (Fiberglass composite)

? Powdercoated gas tank

There is more that I probably cannot think of. The pictures will tell more than I can say about the condition of the car. It is garage kept, babied, and wins or places in every car show I have taken it to. Most recently was awarded a Gold award at the 2014 Florida Mopar Nationals (March), and placed 3^rd in the front drive class at the 2013 Don Garlits Mopar Show (Oct ’13). This is a very fun car to drive, show, and just look at. Looking for a good home for it!

2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat revving is sonic bacon

Fri, 23 May 2014

This is the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, and we're sure that by now, you know its stats, including over 600 horsepower from its 6.2-liter, supercharged V8. What, pray tell, does that blown engine sound like, though?
At least judging on the sonic strength of this video, it's very, very dirty. Honestly, it sounds unlike anything that's come out of the Chrysler Group in a long time, if ever. It's loud, almost brutally so, with a bark that few road-going V8s can match.
Of course, you should be the final judge here. Take a look and a listen at the two videos below, one of which comes from our friends at Cars.com that provides a nice look under the hood, and then let us know what you think of the Hellcat's singing voice in Comments.

Dodge to resurrect Scat Pack?

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

Before social media ever existed, if automotive enthusiasts wanted to be noticed or recognize other fans, they joined a car club. For Dodge muscle car lovers from 1968 through 1971, that group was known as the Scat Pack. Just like the Charger, Challenger and Dart nameplates, it looks like the Scat Pack could be getting a resurrection by Chrysler.
Automotive News is reporting that Chrysler recently renewed its trademark on the Scat Pack name, and while this is in no way a guarantee that the name will return, AN talked to Tim Kuniskis, Dodge President and CEO, who stoked the fire a little more. In the article, Kuniskis said that the name is "a very important part of our history" and added that "we like the whole idea of having a Scat Pack of cars." Scat Pack models were identified by their bumblebee stripes and helmet-wearing bumblebee logo, and the idea of a modern Scat Pack doesn't seem all that outlandish in light of recent vehicles like the Charger SRT Super Bee and the Ram 1500 Rumble Bee Concept.
What do you think, is this a cool idea, or is it just an unwelcome bit of nostalgia? Have you say in Comments.

Subaru Legacy pitted against Roadkill project cars

Fri, 05 Sep 2014

There's an evergreen debate among auto enthusiasts about whether they would prefer to have the latest and greatest car of today or a certified classic from yesteryear. What if you had to further define that, though, and the choice was between a brand new 2015 Subaru Legacy or a turbocharged Datsun 240Z with a hatch that wouldn't close? Roadkill aimed to find out that and more in one of its best videos to date.
According to the hosts, Subaru came to them, handed over some money and challenged Roadkill's project cars against its latest Legacy. The result is every bit as good (or better) than any automotive-themed show you could find on television.
Things start simple with a figure-eight race in a rodeo arena with the Subaru taking on Roadkill's 1968 Ford Ranchero, originally built for ice racing. From there the Legacy races a 1968 Dodge Charger with no windows around and off-road rally stage. Finally, the Subie goes head-to-head against the Rotsun, the aforementioned turbocharged 240Z, through an abandoned neighborhood. Plus, there's a bonus drag race challenging them all.
