1970 Dodge Challenger on 2040-cars
Pasadena, California, United States
ANY QUESTIONS JUST EMAIL ME: rhiannonmccathran@juno.com .
I have for sale my 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T with a numbers matching 440 4bbl engine, torqueflite transmission,
factory air conditioning, and power steering, bucket seats, and slap-stick shifter. I have converted the original 4
wheel drum brakes to front wheel disc brakes. (I still have the original drums).
The car was originally sold by my grandfather who owned A Chrysler Dealership in Madera, CA. It was later traded in
in 1975 and has been in my family ever since. My uncle did a restoration to the car in 1989. The car runs good,
everything on it works. This is a Central Valley car that has spent the last 25 years indoors and is rust free. It
is ready as a driver right now. I also have it listed on Craigslist. Thanks for looking!
Added: 12/1/2015. Here is more detail that I responded to one member's question with. I thought I would include it.
It is also shown below as well.
*Hello, everything works on the car except for the trip meter. I would consider the condition of the car as "A
Driver". However, it is complete and numbers matching and everything works. It had a period restoration back in
1988. At that time it received a reproduction interior kit with seat covers, carpet and dash pad. The gauges are
perfect, the dash pad is perfect, the radio is perfect and works, the seats and seat covers are perfect, the
windshield is perfect, the side glass is slightly scratched by the window rubber but do work, all the glass is the
original glass, the console is good, the wood decal on the console is bubbled, the seat backs and door panels have
scratches in the plastic that were then repainted in 1988. The carpet is sound but does exhibit some fading and
discoloration. The headliner is perfect and all the interior trim and metal is perfect and not pitted. The steering
wheel is not cracked and is complete. The steering wheel does have some discoloration on the spokes but the rubber
is not brittle. As far as the exterior: The doors are original metal and there is no rust, the hood, front fenders,
rear quarters, deck lid and bumpers are all original to the car and have no rust or damage. The trunk has no rust
and had a new trunk pan installed in 1988. The tires where new in 2010 and have seen less than 200 miles. The paint
is in good condition. There is no fading, peeling, bubbling, or scratches. It is glossy and complete. I do feel
like it could use a good wet sanding and polish as I believe it got a clear coat with the repaint in 1988 and seems
to be a little thick. All the exterior trim is present and in good condition. The engine was overhauled in 1988
along with the original transmission. In 2010 I added front wheel disc brakes. The car has seen less than 200 miles
since 2010. It has always been a California car and mostly stored inside. Please let me know if you have any other
questions.

2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat revving is sonic bacon
Fri, 23 May 2014This 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.
Zombie cars: 9 discontinued vehicles that aren't dead yet
Thu, Jan 6 2022Car models come and go, but as revealed by monthly sales data, once a car is discontinued, it doesn't just disappear instantly. And in the case of some models, vanishing into obscurity can be a slow, tedious process. That's the case with the 12 cars we have here. All of them have been discontinued, but car companies keep racking up "new" sales with them. There are actually more discontinued cars that are still registering new sales than what we decided to include here. We kept this list to the oldest or otherwise most interesting vehicles still being sold as new, including a supercar. We'll run the list in alphabetical order, starting with *drumroll* ... BMW 6 Series: 55 total sales BMW quietly removed the 6 Series from the U.S. market during the 2019 model year. It had been available in three configurations, a hardtop coupe, a convertible and a sleek four-door coupe-like shape. BMW i8: 18 total sales We've always had a soft spot for the BMW i8, despite the fact that it never quite fit into a particular category. It was sporty, but nowhere near as fast as similarly-priced competitors. It looked very high-tech and boasted a unique carbon fiber chassis design and a plug-in hybrid powertrain, but wasn't really designed for maximum efficiency or maximum performance. Still, the in-betweener was very cool to look at and drive, and 18 buyers took one home over the course of 2021. Chevy Impala: 750 total sales The Impala represented classic American tastes at a time when American tastes were shifting away from soft-riding sedans with big interior room and trunk space and into higher-riding crossovers. A total of 750 sales were inked last year. Chrysler 200: 15 total sales The Chrysler 200 was actually a pretty nice sedan, with good looks and decent driving dynamics let down by a lack of roominess, particularly in the back seat. Of course, as we said regarding the Chevy Impala, the number of Americans in the market for sedans is rapidly winding down, and other automakers are following Chrysler's footsteps in canceling their slow-selling four-doors. Even if Chrysler never really found its footing in the ultra-competitive midsize sedan segment, apparently dealerships have a few leftover 2017 200s floating around. And for some reason, 15 buyers decided to sign the dotted line to take one of these aging sedans home last year.
Bull leads Texas police on four hour chase
Thu, May 12 2016A bull leading police on a chase through a Texas town may sound like something out of a country music song, but police in Arlington, Texas recently had just such a situation on their hands. According to WFAA, on the afternoon of May 9, a young bull got loose from his pen and decided to take a stroll through the streets of Arlington. "There was a cow walking down the neighborhood," said Arlington resident Jillyan Nance. "It trotted down my home and cut across our yard into the neighbor's yard." Arlington police were alerted to the escaped bull and, in a scene more Texas than Steve Earle drinking a Shiner at the Alamo, they attempted to chase it down with police cruisers. For the next four hours, police engaged the creature in a sedate, low-speed chase through Arlington, Dalworthington Gardens, and other neighboring towns. The bull, for his part, largely ignored his pursuers and the throngs of people coming out of their houses to watch the strange scene and post pictures to Facebook and Instagram. With numerous police cruisers in not-quite-hot pursuit, the bull ambled along the shady streets, stopping here and there to munch on some grass and take in the views. Eventually, a friendly local rancher showed up and lassoed the bull in Dalworthington Gardens just before 9:00 p.m. Police have not released the name of the bull's owner or any motive for its escape. Perhaps, like the unicorn that escaped into a California orchard back in February, it decided that it had had enough of working for a living and was looking for something else.
