Fully restored, 1968 Dodge Charger General Lee replica. This is one of the nicest replicas
that you will ever see. The car was purchased in 1997 and restoration was completed in 2006. The car is also
autographed by all the surviving cast members from the show. I was lucky enough to get James Best's autograph on
there, too. The car has been converted to a 1969 Charger just like they used to do on the TV show. The bodywork is
near flawless. Both quarterpanels have been replaced. The trunk floor pans and quarter panel extensions have also
been replaced. The front floor pans have also been replaced. The car is painted using 1975 Corvette Flame Red (Code
C70) just like they used to use on the show, too. The flag, numbers, and "General Lee" text are also all painted
on. No decals here! The tail panel extension was replaced with one form a 1969 Dodge Charger, as was the front
grille. All the side marker lights, on the fenders and quarter panels, have been filled in. They used to do this on
the later episodes of the show, too. When the floor pans were off, the inside of the frame rails were sandblasted
and a rust inhibitor was also applied. Underneath the car is near perfection. The entire under carriage has been
sandblasted, primed, undercoated, painted and clear coated. The engine compartment, and underneath the hood, is
painted semi-gloss black. The entire inside of the cabin and trunk is lined with dyna mat. The trunk houses a
full-sized spare.
The car originally had a 318 motor in it, but this was replaced with a fully rebuilt 440 V-8 motor. The cylinders
were bored .030" over and the compression ratio requires the use of 93 octane. Atop the motor sits an aluminum
Edelbrock intake and a 4 barrel Holley carb. Moroso valve covers sit atop the heads. The transmission is a 3 speed
automatic that was rebuilt, too. All the gas and brake lines are stainless steel. The gas tank is brand new. The
car has manual braking with brake drums on the front and rear. The rear end had a 3.55 Auburn Gear differential
installed in 2014. This is a sure grip differential. The exhaust headers are Hooker headers that have been ceramic
coated inside and out. A 3" Flowmaster dual exhaust completes the exhaust system. The car also has the signature,
12 note dixie horn, with the horns mounted under the hood and the button hidden inside the ash tray. The car rides
on original 14x7 American Racing vector rims. The tires are all BF Goodrich Radial TAs, including the full sized
spare in the trunk. The odometer on the car has stopped working a few years ago. It needs to be repaired or
replaced. The speedometer also reads slightly higher than the actual speed. This is due to the tire size on the car
and this can be fixed by replacing the speedometer gear with a 36 tooth gear.
The interior of the car is astonishing. The front and rear seats, and front and rear lower door panels are from
Legendary Auto interiors in the Dukes of Hazzard tan color. The remaining parts of the interior was custom dyed to
match Legendary's color. The visors have all the cast members' autographs. These include autographs from Catherine
Bach, John Schneider, Tom Wopat, Ben Jones, Rick Hurst, James Best, and Sonny Shroyer. The car also comes with the
correct Radio Shack tear drop antenna and the correct cobra CB radio

Corvette Z06 and Viper TA square off at the strip

Wed, Jan 21 2015

There are many long-standing grudge matches among automobiles: 911 vs GT-R, Mustang vs Camaro, Ferrari vs Lamborghini... but as far as high-end American metal goes, it doesn't get much more legendary than Viper vs 'Vette. So after Chevy released the new Corvette Z06, we knew it was only a matter of time before it would have to square off against the Viper TA. And what better place to pit these two parallel pillars of American performance than on the drag strip? Fortunately that's just what we have here. In one corner, the 2014 Dodge Viper TA, with its 8.4-liter V10 pumping out 640 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque. In the other, the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06, the supercharger on its 6.2-liter V8 more than making up for the discrepancy in displacement and cylinder count to produce 650 hp and just as much torque. But numbers don't tell the whole story, so watch the video clip to see which reaches the end of the quarter-mile first.

Next Dodge Challenger to be electrified, says FCA boss

Mon, Jan 21 2019

Dodge is the last of Detroit's Big Three to truly keep the muscle car purpose and heritage alive with the Challenger and Charger. As the Mustang and Camaro have transitioned to sports car-like experiences, the high-horsepower Dodges have stuck to their guns as straight-line behemoths with little intention of competing with the others in corner carving. People still dig the old-school-cool of cars like the Challenger, as sales actually went up while Mustang and Camaro sales took a hit in 2018. That said, new FCA boss Mike Manley said things will be changing in an electric way for the next generation, in a report by The Detroit News. "The reality is those platforms and that technology we used does need to move on. They can't exist as you get into the middle-2020s. New technology is going to drive a load of weight out, so we can think of the powertrains in a different way. And we can use electrification to really supplement those vehicles." News of electrified muscle cars is nothing new at this point. Ford says it's going to reveal a Mustang Hybrid in 2020. And with Al Oppenheiser (former chief engineer for the Camaro) moving to GM's electric division, you better believe Chevrolet is working on an electrified version of the Camaro. This, however, is the first solid evidence we have that FCA and Dodge are making such a move. What Manley said next is something we all know to be true, but a bit heartbreaking nonetheless. "I think that electrification will certainly be part of the formula that says what is American muscle in the future. What it isn't going to be is a V8, supercharged, 700-horsepower engine," Manley says. Even if it's a bit silly, we all love the Hellcat for its 707 horsepower V8. Clearly, plenty of other people do, too, because Dodge keeps cranking out more insane versions of the car with the Redeye and Demon. As for how much electrification Dodge's muscle car will receive, Manley wouldn't go into detail. Though he does say that electrification "can't be the dominant part." This should provide some solace to all those worried the gasoline engine could disappear from the American muscle car. Just as Dodge is reluctant to stray from the original intent of the muscle car, it's not hard to imagine the Challenger/Charger being the last to go full-electric. Gas engines supplemented by 48-volt systems or plug-in hybrids will most likely be the end result when we first see electrified Challengers.
