I could go on and on and I'm sure there are things I am forgetting - will add to the list as we go, but the car really does speak for itself.  It's not a 'professional' build like for ex: Mr. Norms 5.7 Cuda conversions. 

Here it is!  A very tasteful brainstorm idea to take an SRT-8 Challenger and bring in alot of custom and 71-original touches to pay tribute the '71 Cuda!  Let me start by saying that I have enjoyed doing all of this and wish to continue to do so (one in every color if I had my way) - I am putting this one up for sale, but by no means is it a 'fire-sale', so please don't bother with offers.  Additionally, those who view this vehicle/auction and are diehard modern Challenger or old-school Cuda enthusiasts and think this is a travesty - move on....I do not need negative comments.  And yes, I know it is a Challenger and will always be a Challenger - it doesn't have 71-correct quarter panel bodylines, I know Plymouth is no longer around, I know there is no such thing as a 'Dodge' Cuda, etc etc.  I've heard it all and I know all that is DIFFERENT between this and an actual '71 Cuda.  I have owned several 70-74 Cudas and I enjoyed them - I also think the modern Challenger is just a plain all-out COOL car 'out-of-the box'!  I love both eras and this was a compromise to have the best of both worlds without breaking the bank or having to keep one of them in storage.

Small backstory on this beauty.....I bought this SRT out of Texas when it was 1.5 yrs old from a gentleman who used it for (of all things) - a commuter car!  So, it had almost 31k true highway miles on it.  I have only put 4k miles on it since and has been 'caught' in the rain just once.  Needless to say, always stored and never seen bad weather is the case here!  I think this car is cool as h*ll, and I hope since you're reading this far into it, that you think it's just as cool.  However, I didn't put it up for sale so that I can give up all the details involved with the project to help you swipe ideas, or list out suppliers I've used or how I fabricated something.
Buy-It-Now price is firm as I said.  Not interested in trades except for partial trade on the following:  SRT8 Challengers in B5 Blue, Detonator Yellow, Plum Crazy Purple or possibly Green w/Envy.
The sale is AS-IS, no warranty offered or available.  Deposit is non-refundable and timelines of the sale WILL be strictly adhered to.  If you can't complete the sale, don't start the purchase.  Have funds ready to go!  NO DREAMERS or WINDOW SHOPPERS.  A serious buyer leaves a deposit and follows through, no viewings just because 'youre close' to where the car is and have a Saturday to come over and daydream.
Vehicle runs and drives just as it should and has NEVER been beaten or raced - (it only looks like it's been a racer - lol.) - I am in my mid-40s and previous owner was in his early 50s, so it wasn't driven like it was stolen.  Spirited driving only.  Vehicle is used and expect imperfections as such, (but it doesn't win trophies without being in beautiful condition!)

Thanks for looking and good luck in your search....if you're searching for unique - you found it.  Please keep inquiries from serious BUYERS only!  Will work with transporters, exporters welcome!

FCA adds 88k Dodge Challengers to Takata inflator recall

Mon, Jul 13 2015

The Takata airbag inflator recall from FCA US is growing 88,346 vehicles larger in the US after the company's discovery of the faulty parts in the 2008-2010 Dodge Challenger. The affected examples have production dates between September 19, 2007, and October 29, 2010, and the coupes need the replacement components on the driver's side. According to chronology posted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (as a PDF), the automaker was auditing the models covered under the campaign in July and "identified a population of vehicles that was inadvertently excluded." Initially, FCA believed these cars were using an unrecalled Takata inflator. The audit revealed that the affected cars indeed used a recalled version. As with the rest of the faulty parts, exposure to moisture can cause them to ignite too quickly during an airbag deployment and spray shrapnel at occupants. The problem has been linked to at least eight deaths worldwide and a vehicle fire in Japan. The Challenger wasn't previously part of FCA's 3.3-million unit national campaign or the subsequent expansion. According to FCA US the parts to complete the repairs in these Challengers aren't currently available. However, owners will be notified of the issue by mail starting August 14. They will receive a second notice when the parts become available.

The affected vehicles are equipped with a dual-stage driver frontal air bag that may be susceptible to moisture intrusion which, over time, could cause the inflator to rupture. CONSEQUENCE: In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the driver's frontal air bag, the inflator could rupture with metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants resulting in serious injury or death. REMEDY: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the driver's frontal air bag inflator, free of charge. Parts to remedy the vehicles are not currently available. Interim notices will be mailed to owners beginning August 14, 2015.

2015 Dodge Viper GTC available in 25 million no-cost combos with 1 Of 1 bespoke program

Thu, Jan 8 2015

What's the one thing no car can have too much of? Here's a hint – it's not power. It's not efficiency, either, or technology, or even safety. It's exclusivity. It's one reason Rolls-Royce has become a legend building absolutely bespoke motor vehicles, and it's the reason Dodge, of all companies, is offering a new GTC trim level for its Viper supercar. Now, you might be asking what's so special and exclusive about a trim level? Well, in the Viper GTC's case, it gives owners access to a catalog of 8,000 shades of paint for the exterior, 24,000 "hand-painted" custom stripe patterns, 10 different wheel options, 16 interior trims and no fewer than six aerodynamic packages. That results in 25 million different configurations for the 645-horsepower snake. Most shockingly, the customization choices come at no additional cost on the GTC model. And it's only the start. Ordering a GTC will enroll customers in a unique VIP program called Viper Concierge, which according to Dodge, "offers an exclusive point of contact throughout the custom Viper build process." In other words, buyers will be given the means to stay right on top of their car's production, through the 140-to-160-hour painting process, which itself will be fully documented with pictures and through a mobile-friendly website, to the actual construction of their GTC. The Concierge process will start with the ordering stage, which will include Dodge sending customers a paint chip showing the owner's custom choosing, which they can confirm or refuse. Shortly thereafter, Dodge will send buyers a 1:18-scale "speed-form" replica in their chosen custom colors, once again to confirm or deny the build. Once the buyer's color and option selection is locked-in, that car becomes a one-of-one Viper for that year – no other buyer will be permitted to build a Viper to the same specifications. The concierge service also grants access to the Viper Ambassador Owner's Portal, where orderers can track their car's build process, receive weekly updates and share their excitement with (jealous) friends and family. And once the car is complete, it will be fitted with a custom dash plaque identifying its bespoke provenance – the owner can choose to have their name put on the badge, the car's nickname, or whatever they wish (Dodge will also ship each Viper with a second blank plate to include if the original owner sells the car).

Dodge Viper GTS-R goes back to old-school livery

Fri, 20 Jun 2014

The Dodge Viper may have been around now for over 20 years, but as far as racing achievements go, 2000 was its finest season. That's when it won the Rolex 24 at Daytona, the GTS class trophy at the 24 Hours of Le Mans and its second consecutive title in the American Le Mans Series.
Since then, SRT Motorsports hasn't quite had the same success, withdrawing from Le Mans this year and shedding the Dodge name and its emblematic red and white livery for the SRT badge and a silver snakeskin theme. But now that the Viper is back under the Dodge banner, so too is the racing team returning to its classic livery.
Starting from the six-hour race at Watkins Glen next week, both the No. 91 and No. 93 Viper GTS-Rs will wear the red base color with twin white racing stripes that its more accomplished forebears wore on circuits around the world. And with it, maybe the Viper will return once again to the winner's circle at home and abroad.
