The YellowJacket Edition begins as a 392 Hemi 6.4L 470hp/470 ft-lb torq 6spd beast!  Exclusive Nappa Leather seats w/Suede inserts and an embroidered YellowJacket stripe.  SRT-unique steering wheel with leather and polished/brushed aluminum accents.  And of course, the (PYV) Stinger Yellow paint exclusive on Challenger only in the YellowJacket edition.
The options/accessories/comforts/performance included in the SRT YJ include:
Power Sunroof, Navigation System, DVD, SportMode Driving option, Heated Seats, Heated Steering Wheel, Hill-Assist Start Control, Power Seats/Windows/Brakes/Mirrors, One-touch Window, 730N Entertainment System w/Harmon Kardon 900W Audio & Subwoofer, U-Connect, Voice Command, Bluetooth, U-Connect Hands Free phone, Internal Hard Drive, Keyless Enter & Go Push Button Start, SRT-exclusive Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) featuring 1/4 mi & 1/8th mi timer/0-60 timer/Trip Information/G-Force display/Engine Status & Vitals w/Maintenance reminders, 3-mode Electronic Stability Control, TPMS sensors Break Assist & All-Speed traction control, Security alarm.....the list goes on....and on...and on.

Aftermarket Add-Ons include Deep Tinted Windows and beefy Magnaflow exhaust with Magnaflow tips, and also the Skip-Shift Eliminator.

NOW.....for the ultra-cool retro additions....to pay tribute to the cool aspects of the '71 Cuda, I have added:  Shaker Hood System - fully functional w/HemiCuda emblems, 71-Cuda style Grille assembly painted body-color, custom finishes @ grille surround, Reproduction 71 Cuda Roadlamps w/dedicated switch, Appearance Hood Pins, Appearance 'fish gill' Fender vents, original 70's Mopar fender-mounted turn signals, custom short-throw Pistol Grip shifter with simulated wood inserts, custom-finish woodgrain Console top, custom-finish woodgrain instrument bezel, custom 70's Cuda-style gauges showing all necessary EVIC stats & 180mph speedometer but with the Cuda-style background on the gauges, custom yellow piping and steering wheel emblem, custom Cuda dash emblem, custom-designed 'Billboard' graphic with engine specification & custom YellowJacket logo paying homage to both eras, Chrysler pentastar emblem on lower fender, painted rocker panels, reproduction 70's Mopar chrome rocker mouldings, custom fuel cap emblem, 'Go-Wing'-style spoiler, original 71 Cuda taillights wired in fully functional including reverse lights, custom tailpanel with original Cuda tailpanel emblem, and finally....custom-built (and very costly) Polished racing wheels -18" fronts & 20" rears with custom-lettered Dunlop Sport Maxx tires with OEM TPMS sensors installed.

The pictures tell the story - style-wise this 'tribute' came out better than anticipated, although not perfect - I can guarantee you can take it to car shows and walk away with trophies. I purchased this car in Palm Beach,FL and drove her back to OH - and it still smells new!  This is a personal-build, not done by any professional corporate or full-fab shop nor does it come as a 'kit', so please refrain from emails concerning that.  This is my brain-child and it is a just plain beautiful, menacing, unique, extreme rubberneck worthy bad-*ss vehicle.  It is the best of both worlds - all the performance and creature comforts of the new with all the cool retro aspects of the iconic 70's Cuda.  Dodge did the Challenger very well, but let's not forget the Cuda - this car will never be an actual Cuda and that it is why it is labeled as a tribute.  I did de-badge the car of all Dodge and 'ramhead' emblems and wanted to present it as an 'SRT'-type brand car so there wouldn't be a long drawn-out debate of a Dodge cant be a Cuda  and a Cuda has to be Plymouth, etc etc.  So, all the nay-sayers and purists can also hold their distain - I know it's a Dodge Challenger and will always be titled as such.  I love the Dodge Challenger, I love the Special editions including the YellowJacket, but I also love the Cuda concept added.  If this bothers you - I don't need schooling on why it's not a Plymouth, or what isnt correct about it.  I believe this is a pretty darn good nod to the Cuda, that is all.....

DO NOT miss out on this opportunity to own this one-of-a-kind - yes, there are some conversions out there (every one of them I've seen are only 5.7 R/T Hemi conversions...BUT, this is an SRT....and a 392 SRT....and a special edition to boot!!), but I spent alot of time, sweat equity and of course money putting this together.  Will work with transporters to deliver to your door, and would be happy to work with exporters for International buyers.  Good Luck!

NHTSA investigating Chrysler for airbags, ignition switches

Wed, 18 Jun 2014

Chrysler is being targeted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in a pair of actions that focus on over 1.2 million Jeeps, minivans and crossovers.
The first is a "preliminary investigation" that focuses on an airbag issue afflicting the Jeep Commander built in model years 2006 and 2007 and Grand Cherokee from 2005 to 2006. In total, 700,000 vehicles could potentially be affected. It's not entirely clear what the airbag issue is, with The Detroit Free Press simply stating that the restraint systems in the affected Jeeps may be "faulty."
The other investigation is what's called a "recall query" and it covers a problem that General Motors should be familiar with. In this case, there could be a problem with the ignition switches of 525,000 vehicles, ranging from 2008 to 2010 Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans, to the 2008 to 2010 Dodge Journey crossover. Again, it's not entirely clear what sort of behavior prompted the 32 complaints that NHTSA has received on these vehicles.

Ram to go on a Rampage with new small pickup?

Wed, 16 Jul 2014

When people look back at today's automotive industry, what do you think they'll remember us for? The emergence of hybrids? Ever more expensive and exotic supercars? The dawn of the self-driving car? All likely scenarios, but so is the blurring of lines between one bodystyle and another, giving rise to hardtop convertible coupes and crossovers of every shape and size. But one bodystyle the North American auto industry has stayed largely away from in the past couple of decades is a car nose and chassis with a pickup bed.
It's a bodystyle immortalized by the Chevrolet El Camino, but with few exceptions, we haven't seen too many of these automotive platypuses in recent years on our turf. Subaru tried with the Baja and the low-volume Honda Ridgeline soldiers along largely unchanged, but the genre's biggest adherents are still Down Under, where ute versions of the Holden Commodore and Ford Falcon live. With a few other examples scattered to the four corners of the earth, that's really about it. But if these spy shots are anything to go by, it looks like Fiat Chrysler Automobiles could be working to bring it back.
Spied undergoing testing in Michigan, what we appear to be looking at is a heavily disguised Fiat Strada being prepared - like the Fiat Ducato-based Ram ProMaster and the smaller Doblo-based ProMaster City - for Stateside duty as a Ram product. The Strada, for those unfamiliar, is a product of Fiat Automóveis in Brazil and is based on the Palio economy car. The nameplate has been around South America since 1996 and was originally designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro (long before Volkswagen monopolized his talents), and takes a more rugged approach in the form of the Strada Adventure.

QB says University of Alabama offered him a Corvette to play football

Fri, 16 May 2014

The University of Alabama Crimson Tide football team could be in some hot water, following a pair of posts on social media.
The first post was sure to raise a few eyebrows on its own. It's an Instagram of sophomore running back Derrick Henry standing in front of his new Dodge Challenger (we're guessing it's an R/T based on the fender stripes). Complete with a custom set of wheels, the image was enough to trigger more than a few questions about where an unemployed student-athlete came up with the money for such a purchase. Now, this could be harmless. Henry, flush with a full-ride to Bama could have convinced his parents to get him something nice with his college fund.
The second post, though, is a straight-up accusation. It comes from former West Virginia Mountaineer and current CFL quarterback Pat White, who posted the following on his Facebook page.
