Up for sale is my 1972 Dodge Challenger. Rebuilt motor/tranny 5k miles ago. New wheels/tires about the same time. Balanced 340  with X heads and factory high performance manifolds. The motor was gone through, bored 30 over, crank was reground, new KB 10.5:1 pistons, all new bearing/rings etc.  The X heads were redone at the same time with new springs, seals, exhaust valves and a fresh grind. New driveshaft. Mechanically its done but the paint needs work if you want to show it. Its an older repaint that I wouldn't call half assed but more like 3/4 assed. Sand marks left here and there and spots that are wavy. I posted pics of the spots that I could get it to show up. Its a good driver car as is, most people don't even notice and I can drive it without have to park it sideways in 3 spaces a mile from the store. The floor pans and trunk are all perfectly solid but if you know Challengers then you know what I mean when I say the passenger side inner fender needs replaced at the hood hinge. The hood still opens and closes fine but if you look in the pics you can see where its rusted at the hinge. Its an ac car and I have all the ac to put back on it I just couldn't decide if I wanted to update the compressor or not. The original one is massive and weighs probably 40 lbs......however if you like Mopars and are wanting that look then theres no mistaking it for anything else. I'll leave it for you to decide.  It runs and drives great and sounds even better. I can honestly say I've never owned a car that got more attention. You cant stop for gas without someone chatting you up about it. I'm certain I'm forgetting things so if you would like any more info or pics just send me a message or contact me at 618-521-ten38.  Just added a few more pics in better light.

Dodge Dart Mopar '13 special edition recalled over airbag woes

Mon, 09 Dec 2013

Dodge is only building 500 examples of the black-and-blue Mopar '13 Dart, but the majority of them are now being recalled. Part of the Mopar upgrade included replacing the stock seat skins in the Dart with black and blue Katzkin leather, but the seat-mounted side airbags were reinstalled improperly during the upfitting process, which could affect the performance of the front seat side airbags.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration bulletin, a total of 374 Mopar '13 cars are being recalled due to side airbags that might not deploy in a side-impact collision. There have been no reports of the airbags not going off, but Chrysler will still need to reinstall the bags to ensure proper deployment. The recall notice is posted below, which gives information for Mopar '13 owners to contact Chrysler and NHTSA.

Dodge performance trio thrashed on Roadkill

Tue, Apr 14 2015

Of all the shows that Motor Trend does, Roadkill is probably the last one we'd pick to evaluate the latest performance automobiles. That's not a slight against David Freiburger or Mike Finnegan, who host the show: they're certified gear-heads and the go-to guys when it comes to hot rods, rat rods and anything grungier than it is shiny. But as exemplary as they are of Detroit muscle, the Charger Hellcat, Challenger Hellcat and Viper are also shiny new pieces of metal. Still, since it will now be sponsoring the show, someone at Dodge apparently thought it would be a good idea to hand Freiburger and Finnegan the keys to the company's top performance models. So to ring the best out of them, they solicited help from some of their colleagues at MT, gained access to a closed-down air strip, devised as many ways as they could to destroy the tires, and proceeded to set about doing exactly that. Watch the grin-inducing mayhem unfold in the half-hour clip above. Related Video:

Aficionauto drives Vin Diesel's fast and furious 1970 Dodge Charger

Mon, 15 Sep 2014

The Aficionauto host Christopher Rutkowski has a real passion for original and replica cars from movies and television, whether they are from James Bond, Jurassic Park, or incredibly obscure Japanese shows. However, he might have outdone himself this time because he hopped into one of the biggest automotive stars of contemporary cinema. This 1970 Dodge Charger appeared in Fast & Furious and came back in Fast Five, where Paul Walker actually drove it. The menacing, black muscle car will make its return to the franchise in the seventh film, too.
The Fast and Furious Charger is a real beast no matter how you look at it. The interior is nothing more than two seats and a roll cage, and as the video shows, this thing vibrates constantly like a coiled mass of muscle ready to strike. The camera can barely stay in place most of the time. Also, Dom's Dodge is more than happy to do a smoky burnout and leave the driver partially deaf afterward from its wonderful, ear-splitting engine roar.
The Aficionauto also interviews the man who controls the keys to this beast. Bob Hartwig was once an F-15 pilot, but he also loved Hollywood vehicles. Now, he's a partner at Picture Car Warehouse, a company with about 850 cars that supplies vehicles to film studios. This Charger definitely seems to be Hartwig's favorite in the collection, as it should be.
