Tucson, Arizona, United States

1971 Dodge Challenger

PERFECT CAR TO BUILD AS YOU WANT WITHOUT RUINING ANYTHING
AND ONLY IMPROVING ON WHAT DODGE STARTED OUT WITH IN 1971

LOOKING AT THE CAR AS IS IF YOU WHERE GOING TO RESTO-MOD IT
HOW COOL WOULD IT BE TO TRANSPLANT A 69 CHARGER GRILL AND 
HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY INTO A CAR LIKE THIS FOR A REAL WOW EFFECT
IF YOU COULD DO IT WITHOUT REALLY CHOPPING UP THE CAR. THE 
CHALLENGER NEVER CAME WITH HIDE-A-WAYS, but maybe its time someone did one.

BEING THE FACTORY COLOR LOOKS TO BE CITRON YELLOW MAKES FOR A
GREAT COLOR TO BUILD ON .  Car comes with factory build sheet / but no fender tag
PIC YOUR ENGINE / TRANSMISSION / SUSPENSION AND DO IT RIGHT
IT WOULD BE A GREAT CAR, PAYOFF OR BOTH.

Heres a quick story about the car. It was used by Picture Car Warehouse for a few yrs.
If you go to their website you can still see the car on there up for rent and you
can see the black Challenger too they used for the movie (or 1 of them )
They are the ones who swiped the front sheetmetal for another project . If you saw
movie Out of Time with Justin Timberlake, the LF black fender came off one of
their stunt cars. Mr Timberlake wasnt the best driver of a 4 spd, and dented up one
of the cars he was driving in the movie. FOR that reason Im planning on keeping 
that fender and not ship it with the car because of its story.

LUCKILY just about every part you need to restore this car is available
NOW a days and finding parts is much better then it was 5 yrs ago.
RestoMod builds if done correctly can easily bring $60k plus.

THIS CAR RUNS AND DRIVES, but I found to keep it running I have to
keep my hand on the key, keeping it forward enough to stay running
but not engaging the starter. So it needs a starter switch in the column
I think. I can drive and move the car around like this but its a little
daunting.


OUR 100% feedback speaks for itself 
and many of our feedback are from about 15 cars we sold just this past
year here on EBay. We put more time and effort into our ads making it much
easier for the potential buyers to bid with confidence.
NOT MANY OF THESE CARS WHERE MADE BACK IN THE DAY and we all know
NOT MANY ARE EVEN LEFT ON THE ROAD ANYMORE.


DRIVETRAIN: the original slant 6 runs great and the transmission
feels good too. Some cool options on the motor are AC and PS.
Motor runs great making the car easier to ship, but chances are 
Its going to be pulled out and sold. The rearend looks like an 8.75
which is a plus + . So it does run and drive and brakes are good.


INTERIOR: worn out from front to back, but the front seat
shells are worthy of restoring. Back seat is missing the back
part, but they are available used online if you are planning
on putting it all back to stock. The whole interior needs
restoration but the floors look decent. Some rust around the
rain gutters, so it will need some spot sectional repairs
Missing the 2 front door glass and regulators. Front / Rear 
and 1/4 glass looks good and there. It was a console car too.


EXTERIOR: from the doors back looks original best we can tell.
The front fenders & flat hood where really nice, but the
last owner scavenged them for their project. The car
wasnt wrecked and aprons look good too. The car will for
sure need some metal patch repairs around the body.
Its not eastcoast salt rust, its more CA near the ocean rust.
Frame, and most of the floors are really nice. Trunk is ok
but probably want to replace part of it. The car will need
patch work in several areas around the car, but again its
still better then most Ive seen for what our reserve is at.
As far as I can tell too, this car NEVER came with a vinyl top.
Citron Yella was the original color best I can tell.


SUSPENSION
: basically all stock, feels normal when driving
it around our parking lot etc.

IF YOU DONT SEE IT IN THE PICS, IT DOES NOT COME WITH 
THE CAR (aside from the lovely model who also does not
come with it , haha.)


Overall again, the car feels good for a daily driver

This car is not your typical rust free Arizona car but it is
a CA car that needs some rust repair.

These cars rarely even come up for sale anymore

Stellantis reports $15B profit in first year of merger

Wed, Feb 23 2022

FRANKFURT, Germany — Automaker Stellantis said Wednesday that it made 13.4 billion euros ($15.2 billion) in its first year after it was formed from the merger of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and PSA Group. The earnings nearly tripled profits compared with its pre-merger existence as two separate companies, as the maker of Jeep, Opel and Peugeot vehicles exploited cost efficiencies from combining the businesses. The result compared to a combined 4.79 billion euros for the separate companies in 2020 before the merger, which took effect on Jan. 17, 2021. Revenue for the combined business rose 14%, to 152 billion euros. CEO Carlos Tavares said the results “prove that Stellantis is well positioned to deliver strong performance" and had overcome “intense headwinds” during the year. Automakers have struggled with shortages of key parts such as semiconductor electronic components and rising costs for raw materials as the global rebound from the worst of the coronavirus pandemic brings more demand. The company said the benefits of the merger were worth some 3.2 billion euros during the year. Mergers can lead to streamlined costs as companies combine functions and spread fixed costs over a larger revenue base. The company accelerated its rollout of battery-powered vehicles, with sales of low-emission vehicles reaching 388,000 — an increase of 160%. Stricter environmental regulations in Europe and China are pushing automakers to roll out more electric vehicles with longer range. Stellantis started production of a hydrogen fuel cell commercial van under its Opel brand in December. Stellantis' other brands include Chrysler, Citroen, DS, Fiat, Maserati, Ram and Vauxhall.

Dodge Scat Packages add Mopar performance upgrades in three stages

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

Dodge has revealed what it calls Scat Package Stage Kits that enhance the performance of the Charger and the Challenger equipped with the 5.7-liter V8, and the Dart equipped with the turbocharged 2.4-liter inline four-cylinder engine. The Scat Packs use Mopar performance parts that also can be bought separately. Most of the upgrades increase engine output, but Dodge somehow manages to not specifically mention the power gains associated with each Scat Pack.
The three Scat Packs offered for the V8-powered cars focus on higher power ratings, and each stage comes complete with a unique engine-management calibration to optimize output. Stage one comes with a cold-air intake and a cat-back exhaust; stage two adds a performance camshaft; and stage three really gives you the goods, adding ported polished cylinder heads and performance headers.
For the Dart, the Scat Packs focus on engine, transmission, chassis and brake upgrades. Stage one will net you a cold-air intake, a short-throw shifter and slotted rotors with performance brake pads; stage two adds a cat-back exhaust system and an engine-management calibration to increase output by taking advantage of premium-octane gasoline; and stage three adds 13-inch vented brake discs up front clamped by four-piston calipers, suspension with adjustable springs and struts and performance front and rear antiroll bars.

2013 Dodge Dart GT offers subtle menace in compact form

Mon, 14 Jan 2013

Dodge has already shared all of the relevant information about its all-new 2013 Dart GT, but it wasn't until now that we've seen the car, live and in person. The slightly meaner front fascia and bigger wheels look great on the Dodge, and the red-on-black perforated seats are sporting in an aftermarket sort of way.
To recap: The Dart GT also gets a bit more power, using a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine to make 184 horsepower and 174 pound-feet of torque. A starting price of $20,995 will get you LED taillights, dual exhaust, an 8.4-inch touchscreen and a 7.0-inch TFT display.
Feel free to re-acquaint yourselves with the full Dodge Dart GT information in the press release below, or have a leisurely browse through our gallery of live images.
