1971 Dodge Challenger on 2040-cars
Danville, California, United States
71 Challenger that was built to run on the street. It does have a 70 grill (I just like the look more), but everything else is 71. Non-matching numbers, converted from column shifted automatic to overdrive 4 speed (A833) on the floor with pistol grip. Paint is new, but it is NOT show quality. Car was originally dark green with black vinyl top. Engine is fresh - I believe it was a 73 or 74 block, installed newly turned steel (forged not cast) crank, along with Scat Rods and KB pistons. Edelbrock aluminum heads, Edelbrock Manifold, Holley DP (850), MP 528 solid lifter cam, Harland Sharp roller rockers, Hooker SuperComp headers, 3" exhaust, Dynaflow mufflers. MSD ignition (6AL and coil). Motor has probably 300 miles on it total. New clutch and pressure plate installed with motor. Tranny mileage unknown, does leak a drop or two out of seals on side. Air shocks installed and functional (old school). Power steering installed, but not hooked up (no belt), so it's manual steering for all intents and purposes. 8.75 rear end, not sure on ratio (3.23?), sorry. No rust on car - as far as I know the car has always been in California and inland (not near the coast), so no salt air. I did replace the rear dutchman panel as I went through it, so there was rust there, but it's now gone obviously. I also replaced the front passenger fender. Originally a vinyl top car as shown by fender tag, no longer. New seat covers, carpet, headliner, dash cover. All instruments work (emergency brake light, speedo, tach, temp, fuel, voltage, + two additional gauges (oil pressure and engine temp)). Dash lights do not work at night, no horns. All exterior lights (headlights, high beams, parking, all side markers, etc) all work just fine. No radio/stereo in the car currently. Tires are in great shape all around, wheels are 10" rear and 7" front. Rear brakes have new pads, fronts were fine (drums all around). Cars runs at 180 all day, starts right up, etc. Runs hard. I do not have a build sheet. Note: front buckets will be changed out before auction end with those shown in pic of front of car so that front seat pattern matches rear. All new seatcovers front and rear.

Chrysler earns $1.7B in 2012, revises product plans for US
Wed, 30 Jan 2013Hot on the heels of Ford's earnings announcement for the year that was, Chrysler today reported a 2012 net income of $1.7 billion, up substantially from the comparatively minuscule $183 million profit earned in 2011 when it repaid its US government loans.
Chrysler's good year ended with an excellent fourth quarter that saw net income rise 68 percent from $225 million in 2011 to $378 million. Where are all those extra earnings coming from? Market share, which Chrysler saw increase to 11.4% last year on sales of 1.65 million vehicles. In fact, the Auburn Hills, MI-based automaker out-paced the industry's market growth of 13 percent last year with sales up 21 percent for the year.
The company also revealed an updated product plan for its Chrysler Group and Fiat brands that looks all the way out to 2016. It's an updated version of the plan introduced in 2009 shortly after Fiat took control of the American automaker, and includes such new additions as an Alfa Romeo model, likely the 4C, to be introduced in the US this year, as well five more Alfa models by 2016. Likewise, Fiat will be growing by an additional seven models in the coming few years.
Watch this Dodge Viper get clawed to death
Tue, 07 Jan 2014There's a scene in the James Bond movie, Casino Royale, where Daniel Craig's Agent 007 is captured by villain Le Chiffre, played by Mads Mikkelsen. Le Chiffre tortures Bond in a scene that is rather difficult to watch (especially for blokes) and impossible to describe on these digital pages (Google at your own risk). This video is the automotive equivalent of the Casino Royale torture scene.
It shows a Dodge Viper - a late, first-generation GTS judging by the center-exit exhausts - getting assaulted by a giant piece of heavy equipment. The large claw shows no mercy on the V10-powered sports car, rending its muscular curves into pieces and then running it over, just for good measure. It's a painful video to watch (and hear!), made worse because we don't know what the Viper did to deserve such a fate. About a third of the way through the video, the cameraman indicates that the man with the claw is a new operator from Chrysler, and it appears there may be some fire damage, but beyond that, we don't have much to go on.
Scroll down for the video but be warned, it isn't for the faint of heart.
Chrysler extends fuel tank warranties on LX cars, NHTSA ends probe
Tue, 18 Feb 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has ended its investigation of 153,817, 5.7-liter and 6.1-liter Hemi V8-powered 2006 Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Dodge Magnum models after reports of stalling. Chrysler has responded by granting a lifetime warranty on the fuel tanks for these vehicles.
NHTSA received 299 reports of engines stalling while the models were stopped or driving at low speeds, and began an investigation. The government agency found that the control valve shutoff float in the V8s' 19-gallon fuel tank could malfunction if the fuel had too high of an ethanol content. In many cases, the valve would break in the open position, allowing the tank to be overfilled, which would then cause the cars to stall. However, there were no accidents reported, and the vehicles could be restarted immediately.
There will not be a recall on these vehicles because, "the condition represents a low risk to motor vehicle safety and is adequately addressed by Chrysler's extended warranty," NHTSA said to The Detroit News.
