This auction is for my 1970 Dodge Challenger.  It is not a numbers matching vehicle. It was a real R/T SE 383 Rallye Red 4 speed car but was missing the drive train and most of the floor due to rust and had been hit in the rear.  I used 2 parts cars along with this one to build what you see here. It now has a 440 six pack with 727 torque flyte transmission with 3.23 sure grip rear end.  The engine is a 1975 vintage 440 that was built by Wheeler Racing Engines in Blaine Minn.  It is built to stock specs and runs well on pump premium gas. It produced 392 HP @4600 RPM and 485 ft lbs of torque at 3800 RPM on the dyno. The 727 was built using the Hemi sprag and planetary gear along with a shift kit and 3400 rpm stall converter. It was finished in 1999 and was driven to the Mopar Nationals where it made two high 13 second passes down the 1320 at around 100mph. It has not been raced since then.  It has been a show pooch and driven about 14,000 miles since being restified and has received many 1st & 2nd place awards over the years and still shows well. It received "Best Muscle Car" award at it's only outing in 2013.  Many NOS & new re production parts and upgrades went into this restification such as all Polyurethane suspension bushings, 1" front sway bar and High performance rear leaf springs and factory rear sway bar. It was upgraded to front disc brakes from a 74 Challenger with all new brake lines, cylinders and hoses. The fuel lines were upgraded to 3/8 & 1/4" return lines along with fuel sender and new tank. New vinyl roof, new leather seat upholstery, carpeting from Legendary and Year one suppliers. Dash pad was rebuilt by Just Dashes. No one was re producing the SE headliner so I opted for the bowed headliner without the overhead console.  There are a couple other SE factory parts that did not make it back on this car. The rear aluminum panel was not salvageable and I opted for the black paint in place of the argent silver painted panel. and the grille and headlight bezels  were powder coated in satin black as well. Also eliminated was the bright trim under the front bumper. All of the emblems and stainless are either new or restored.  The radiator was rebuilt by GlenRay radiators using the best core available. The engine, alternator, water pump and power steering pump pulleys were replaced with March Pulleys and serpentine belt.  Other upgrades were to the radio that was replaced by a Sony CD player unit and has the highly desired 3 speaker dash that not many of these cars had back in the day. Also a rear mounted power antenna was installed. The pistol grip gunslinger shifter and Mr Norm dealership sticker was another personal addition. This car is not an original Mr Norm car. I am sure I missed a few items but wanted any potential buyers to not be miss lead.

I have enjoyed this car and hate to see it go but my wife wants a 68 Bullitt Charger clone and I need to keep the peace along with needing the garage space and the money to enable that project.  I have a $30K reserve that is much less that I have invested but I have had more than a decade of enjoyment with it that has to be worth something.  I reserve the right to end this auction early as it is for sale locally.  

This car had been appraised a few years ago at 35K for insurance reasons and I believe it to be in the #2 category. "Old Cars Buyers Guide" shows a #2 Challenger at around $36,000.00 with add 75% for 440 six pack.  If this car was a real numbers matching 440 six pack car it would be a 50K trailer queen and not something you could drive and enjoy.  They are only worth what someone else will pay so you be the judge.

Winning bidder must make arrangement for payment and pick up within 10 days of end of auction. The title will be turned over the to buyer upon meeting these requirements.

Thanks for the interest.

The Dodge Demon's massive hood scoop sucks air like a jet intake

Thu, Feb 9 2017

You know what they say about cars with big hood scoops? They usually hide big blowers. At least that's the case with the Dodge Demon and its 45-inch wide hood scoop, the largest ever fitted to a factory production car. The fifth Demon teaser, "Forced Induction," shows off the increased capacity of the car's air intake and the resurrection of the Air Grabber hood scoop on Dodge's upcoming quarter-mile killer. View 4 Photos As with previous teasers, few details have been given outside of the Subaru-trouncing scoop's dimensions. Dodge says the scoop drops air inlet temperatures by more than 30 degrees. Where the more pedestrian Hellcat only has one air catcher headlight, both inner lights on the Demon are used to feed in air. The hood itself appears to channel air in and to the right into a new airbox that appears to be fitted with a K&N-style filter. Dodge seems intent on preventing any asthma issues with the new car. Standing in front of the car might literally take your breath away. Outside of that, the images don't show any new cryptic messages like previous teasers, or at least none that we can spot. One thing we did notice was that the engine block appears to be painted red, not orange like on the Hellcat. Doing some back and forth comparison also shows that the supercharger appears to be the same size as the current one. Of course, this is all speculative, so if you spot anything, drop a note in the comments. Related Video:

FCA recalls 1.1 million vehicles worldwide due to confusing shifter

Fri, Apr 22 2016

Fiat Chrysler is recalling 1.1 million vehicles worldwide to address the problematic shifter used on cars with eight-speed automatic transmissions. The issue is that the console-mounted shifter acts like a rocker switch and always returns to the middle position after moved. This has been deemed confusing to drivers – confusing enough to cause some to exit their vehicles without first selecting Park and leading to the car rolling away. FCA says 41 injuries are related to the shifter problem, and no evidence of equipment failure has been found. The company will enhance warning chimes and alter the shift strategy, meaning alert messages will be displayed in case the driver door is opened while the engine is running. With the door open, the transmission will prevent the car from moving even if Park is not selected. The affected vehicles are certain model-year 2012–2014 Dodge Charger and Chrysler 300 sedans, as well as model-year 2014–2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs, an estimated 811,586 US vehicles in total. The recall also affects 52,144 vehicles in Canada, 16,805 in Mexico, and 248,667 vehicles elsewhere. The shifter is used with ZF-designed and ZF-built eight-speed automatic; Audi uses a similar shifter setup in some of its vehicles, including the current-generation, which predated Chrysler's use of it. Chrysler uses a different, a rotating-dial-type shifter on eight-speed-equipped Rams. The company moved away from the problem shifter design in 2015 for the Charger and 300, and the Grand Cherokee's shift lever was modified for 2016. Owners of affected vehicles will be notified of the recall when service is available. Fiat Chrysler urges customers to follow the instructions in the vehicle's owner's manual in the meantime.
