This 68 Charger was 90% restored 12 years ago. I purchased the car from an owner in Missouri.

BODY
All body work was completed by a shop in Missouri. The body is very straight and the paint is in very nice shape especially for being 12 years old. It's been garage kept since the restoration. The paint has three coats of clear and it literally feels like glass and is super slick. There a a couple scratches on the hood. I plan to take it to a body shop to see if they can buff them out. There is a crack on the driver's side door by the trim. Rails are in good shape and the under body has been coated. To the best of my knowledge there are no rust concerns with this Charger. The glass appears to be all original and this is a power window car and I recently replaced all the wiring and switches as the old switches were no longer functional. 

ENGINE
The engine is a 1972 400 Police Interceptor. I was unable to adjust the engine type in the Product details but it's a 400 and not a 383. I don't know why the original 383 4BL was replaced. The engine does appear to run a bit rich and dual Flowmaster mufflers are installed. I believe the wheels are original to the car. The front passenger wheel does have some rust showing on it now. It has the original drum brake system with a brake booster. I'm not super technical with the engine and transmission but will do my best to find the answers to any questions. I did purchase a 1968 383 engine to have rebuilt and put in this car along with a 727 torqueflite transmission with a 2500 stall converter. Neither have been installed at this point. They are for sale in addition to the car.

ELECTRICAL
All exterior lights are functional (vacuum hide-away headlight doors work), interior light works, blinkers work, dash light currently is not operational. Oil and temp gauges do not work. Installed new door locks. I do not have the original jack for the car.

INTERIOR
The seats are in very nice shape and were recently recovered. The upper door pads have cracks and need replacing as well as the arm rests. Carpet is in great shape and very clean. The radio that was installed has been removed as it was not working. I've been looking for an original radio to install but haven't found one at this time so that area is open. 

This is a very nice and solid car. It would make for a nice daily drive as it is or a great car to invest in with modern technology to turn into a beast. There are plenty of 68 Chargers out there but it will be hard to beat the condition of this one. I invite any serious buyer to come and look a the car in person so you know what you are buying. I've described the condition of the car honestly and to the best of my ability. Feel free to ask your questions and I will do my best to answer them. I can be reached by e-mail at 1968chargerguy@gmail.com and by phone at 918-706-9698. My name is Marcus.

PAYMENT DETAILS
I require $1,500.00 non-refundable initial deposit to my PayPal account. The remaining balance is to be paid in full by either a wire transfer or a money order. The car will not be released until payment has cleared by banking establishment. I am open to domestic and foreign buyers. Any shipping fees will need to be paid by the purchaser and I will accommodate those needs a necessary. The car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early if it sales to a local buyer.

Chrysler extending production of current Dodge Avenger, Jeep Wrangler, Grand Caravan

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Are you hesitant to pull the trigger on a brand new Dodge Avenger in hopes that a new one will be coming? Well, don't hold your breath. According to The Detroit News, Chrysler will be extending production of the current Avenger sedan through the end of 2015.
Originally, we heard that the company would kill the Avenger to better focus its midsize sedan efforts on the Chrysler 200 replacement. But then new reports stated there would indeed be an Avenger successor, and that we could see it as early as next January. This Detroit News report cites supplier sources confirming the extension of Avenger production, though Chrysler has not released an official statement on the matter.
These same suppliers say that the current Jeep Wrangler will live on through mid-2018 - that's right, another five years. The Detroit News reports that a replacement for the iconic, go-anywhere Jeep was due in mid-2016.

Dodge offers 100 years of solid advice in new ad

Fri, 18 Apr 2014

This is a cool ad. Dodge, which is celebrating its centennial this year, recruited some of its peers to see what you should and shouldn't do in life. Of course, some are obvious - don't complain, learn from your mistakes and live for now.
Then again, some are less obvious. Some, actually, are downright awesome. Towards the end, each piece of advice is interspersed with clips of Dodge's redesigned Challenger smoking its tires. Really, this ad feels like it'd be worthy of a Super Bowl spot. This commercial's personal nature is really in keeping with some of the big game's most interesting ads, like the Imported From Detroit commercial, the Farmer ad and Maserati's surprise clip from this year's game.
Take a look below and let us know what you think.

2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat has 707 glorious horsepower [w/video]

Tue, 01 Jul 2014

Hold onto your butts. "600-plus horsepower" is what we were told to expect from the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT with its 6.2-liter supercharged Hellcat V8 engine. But as we've just learned, those were incredibly conservative numbers. Dodge has officially announced that the range-topping Challenger will hit the asphalt with 707 - seven hundred and seven - horsepower, making it the "most powerful muscle car ever."
Of course, 707 hp is only part of the story, as the Hellcat has also been confirmed to produce 650 pound-feet of torque. All that power will run exclusively to the rear wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission that differs from other Challengers. The new gearbox, 8HP90 (rather than the 8HP70) is "upgraded to handle the extra power and torque," says Dan Reid, SRT's manager of product design and motorsports.
We certainly hope you're prepared to spend a ton of money replacing tires.
