I have had this car since 2004 and will describe it to the very best of my ability. I am not real eager to sell, but other things have priorities. This is a 1969 dodge charger, was a factory ac car, but ac is long gone. I have a non ac heater box that will go with the car, but it is not installed. I never drove the car in cold weather so I never installed it. So no heat, no air. Original engine was a 383 2 barrell. Now has a 1969 440 hp motor. Rear end is a 3:55 suregrip, automatic transmission. vin matches title, dash trunk lip and radiator support. clean, clear title.
Ok good points. Engine was rebuilt and I have put just over 2000 miles on it. transmission was rebuilt as well. Brand new sure grip rear end installed last summer. I have about 500 miles on it. Gas tank , sending unit, all lines are new. Car has 4 wheel drum brakes, all new lines, booster, master cylinder and brake components. Could stop better, but it is a drum brake car. All the wiring is new from Year one. that includes dash harness rear light harness , forward light harness, all of them. I spent lotsa money on factory wiring for this car. Alternator, starter, hp manifolds, power steering pump, radiator, are all new and also from year one. Paint is about 2 years old. It isnt a show car paint job, but is very presentable. I had trunk pan , extensions, and rear crossmember replaced. Both rear quarters were replaced, prior to my ownership. vaccum headlights work as they should. I installed dynamat on the door panels and floor boards as well as new carpert and new center console. Exhaust system was installed last year with dynamax mufflers. Not a concourse factory job, but its ok.
Bad points. The front end is original and has not been changed, at least to not my knowledge. The car drives straight without any issues, but it was my intent to have it upgraded eventually. It needs a rear leaf spring shackle bushing installed on the drivers side. The interior is all original. and looks ok. I would probably only replace the seat covers and the headligner. There is a mouse hole under the passenger side sunvisor. Look at the pics and you can tell. Not bad, but to be perfect, they need changed, but perfectly fine for me now as a driver car. missing back cover on passenger seat. Door panels are nice as well as the door pads, especially for 45 years old. windows all roll up and down fine, except the right rear. It works, but needs guided with your hand. It has a bad nylon roller, Not a big issue, expecially being a general lee, but wanted to point it out. radio is an am radio and is for looks. I wanted the factory appearance, but really have no desire for am radio. It does leak some oil and the power steering box recently started leaking, Iam pretty sure from the rear seal needs replaced. Not a major issue for as often as I drive the car, but I wanted to point them out.
General lee stuff. It has high quality decals installed a year ago, push bar and roll bar are an exact match from the show. Cb is the cobra 78x as the original general lees, it is mounted but not wired to the car. has the correct tear drop antenna. Wheels are american racing vecors 8.5 on the rear with 245 60 r 15 bfg and 15x7 up front running 235 60 r 15. Tires are all in good shape, Same 2000 miles on them. The sunvisors were signed by john schneider on the drivers side and tom wopat on the passenger side. The tail lights are from a Original tv series general lee and have the plaque mounted on them from when they were purchased from warner bros. Has the dixie horn, but factory horn is still functional.
All in all it is a very nice driver General Lee that gets tons of attention and blows away other cars at the car shows. It is a blast for sure. I usually just drive it around locally, and have not driven it on any where more than a 60 mile round trip, so whether or not you can pick it up and drive it home across country. Your guess is as good as mine. I wouldnt, but thats just me.
I think I have covered it pretty well, althogh I am sure Iam forgetting something. if you have any questions or need additional pics please email me.
I require a $250 dollar non refundable deposit immediately after the auction closes.
If you want to inspect it before you bid, that is fine, and I encourage it.
Prefer cash pickup in person, but if you have it shipped, I will not release the car until the entire purchase price clears the issuers bank.
Thank you

2015 Dodge Charger priced from $27,995, Hellcat from $63,995*
Sun, 19 Oct 2014Ladies and gentlemen, let's get the most salient bit of information out of the way right off the bat: $63,995*. That's the amount of money Dodge dealers will be asking for (at the very least, naturally) for a 2015 Charger Hellcat (*plus $995 for destination on all pricing figures). That rather reasonable sum will bring home its buyer a 6.2-liter Hemi V8 engine boasting a supercharger to post such gaudy figures as 707 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque, leading to a top speed of 204 miles per hour to go along with an NHRA-certified quarter-mile time of 11.0 seconds.
With that out of the way, the rest of the 2015 Dodge Charger pricing information breaks down as follows: $27,995 will deliver a sedan with a 292-horsepower 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine, mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Moving up one step of the ladder nets the buyer an SXT model with the same engine, but a nicer chunk of technology and optional equipment for a $2,000 premium. All-wheel drive adds another $3,000. Hemi V8-powered R/T models now boast an eight-speed transmission bolted to the same well-loved 370-horsepower engine as before, for a base price of $32,995.
The SRT 392 model that had hitherto been the top-performing Charger brings with it an asking price of $47,385 while bargain hunters can equip a Charger R/T Scat Pack machine with that same 485-horsepower 6.4-liter Hemi, albeit with somewhat less posh interior bits and pieces, the removal of the 392's adjustable suspension and hi-po wheel and tire package for $39,995.
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles recalls nearly 750k vehicles in two campaigns
Thu, 16 Oct 2014Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is recalling a total of 747,817 vehicles in the US in two separate campaigns recently added to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration database.
The first one covers about 434,581 units of the Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger, Challenger, Durango, and Jeep Grand Cherokee from the 2011-2014 model years with electric hydraulic power steering, the 3.6-liter V6 engine and a 160 amp alternator, according to FCA. In the affected vehicles, it's possible for the alternator to fail without warning and possibly cause the car to stall. According to the documentation submitted to NHTSA, the automaker began investigating the problem in August 2014 and has found possible evidence of one crash caused by the failures but no known injuries.
Customers will begin receiving notification about the recall next month, and obviously the repairs will be done at no cost to them.
Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat #0001 raises $825,000 for charity
Sun, 28 Sep 2014$60,000 doesn't strike us as a lot to pay for a muscle car with 707 horsepower on tap. $825,000... now that's a different story. But, according to the official SRT blog, that's how much one generous and eager buyer paid for the privilege of getting his (or her) hands on the very first new Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat.
Decked out in Stryker Red paint that's usually reserved for the Viper, the supercharged Challenger bearing the VIN 0001 went up for auction at the Mandalay Bay hotel and casino in Las Vegas on Saturday under the auspices of Barrett-Jackson. By the time bidding ended, the gavel dropped at $825,000 - nearly 14 times the sticker price - 100 percent of which will benefit Opportunity Vehicle, a charity that aids the intellectually handicapped in the Las Vegas Area.
