This auction is for a 1969 Dodge Charger project car. My son has owned this for approx 7 years and always planned on fixing it up but other projects got in the way. He is currently doing up a 1971 Dodge Charger R/T clone so reluctently he is going to sell the 1969 to help fund his other project. To begin with the Charger needs a complete restoration. It is a complete rolling shell and chassis. No motor or trans. The car originaly was a 318 V-8, Automatic Trans, Power Steering with Drum Brakes. Brakes are down from sitting. When we purchased the car someone had started doing some body repairs. Full quarters were installed, a trunk pan with extensions, 2 front floor pans, lower back valance panel and lower inner wheel tubs. The quarters still have a weld line on the outside top edge which will need to be ground down and finish work done. The car had been sanded down in various places, primer here and there. So we sanded down the complete body and primed it where needed in order to protect it from the elements. Of course when you get it you will want to do it your way. The passenger door was replaced with a nice rust free door but does have a light scratch in the middle (very fixable). We replaced the front fenders with a good pair to work with. Passenger one has minor rust spot on bottom, drivers one has rust spot on bottom and a few blisters on top side. We bolted the parts on but didnt take the time to line them up perfect as we know the car is going to come apart again. There are some light dings and dents from being in storage but are easy fixes. Small rust hole on passenger rocker panel. Trunk lid has some issues on the outer edge. Just trying to point out some of the areas that need attention. The floors in the car are very solid. If you look at the pics there is a small rust spot right where the wire harness slips into very easy fix. All the glass is in the car. Front windshield is cracked. Rear windshield looks to have been replaced with acrylic. The rear torsion bar cross member is rusted and weak giving the drivers side a lean. We do have a wood block between the front frame rail and "A" arm to give support for now. We purchased a nice solid original crossmember from another Charger that we will include with the sale. Also there are 2 small two inch size holes in the rear frame rails just as they curve down. Water must have set in place. The rails are solid other than that. I would fix rather than replace but its your call. As far as the inside of the car is concerned the dash is intact. Pad is in good shape. No radio. Headliner is still in place but has some holes. The visors and surrounding trim is in place. I have no interior with the exception of a back seat bottom cushion and a passenger side bucket seat back which will be included. I also have upper seat belts, the other vaccum canister for headlights, 2 front kick panels, 2 front windshield side stainless, both door gaskets, fuel tank filler tube, transmission crossmember, wiring harness (condition unknown), both front fender metal splash aprons, the spare tire hook cut of the old trunk pan and power steering pump. We do have a 1969 Dodge Charger parts car that was hit hard in the rear. We cut up a 1970 Charger and was going to use parts from that to fix the 1969. This vehicle will be availble at an extra cost if the winning bidder chooses to purchase. If not then we will sell it seperate as it still has a lot of good usable parts. Im sure I have left something out so feel free to give me a call as it would be easier to discuss the car by phone.A definate worth while project. We have a clear title ,fender tag and proper dealer paper work for the car. If you have under 20 feedback please give us a call before you place a bid so that we know your serious. Sorry we have to do it this way but have been burned to many times. We take our auctions seriously and want you to do the same. If you are the winning bidder we expect a $500 non-refundable deposit within 24 hours after the sale and then full payment in 3 days. If you can not follow through with what we ask please dont bid. These auctions take time and cost money. If you need more info or pics feel free to call or email 207-324-5568 days or 207-432-2862 eves and sundays

2015 Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack
Fri, 24 Oct 2014We all knew That Kid. As a freshman, he was a big kid, overweight but surprisingly strong. Still, he was often picked on for his size. Then, he chatted with the football coach, who convinced him that his true calling was on the team's offensive line. After a season on the freshman squad and a summer of two-a-days, this mild-mannered, husky high schooler returned for his sophomore year as a big, imposing, solid piece of muscle. Needless to say, the same bullies that picked on him were praying he'd forgotten about them as a 10th grader.
That's the V8-powered 2015 Dodge Challenger. It arrived on the scene with a max of 425 horsepower and a bit of a weight problem. It completed its proverbial freshman year with a nice 2011 refresh, where the SRT8 was bumped up to 470 hp, but it still had some work to do.
Enter 2015, and fresh off three months of constant burpees and wind sprints, the newest Challenger is as big and powerful as it's ever been, but it's now got poise and potential, and my goodness, it's fun in a way that Dodge's muscle car has never been.
Dodge gives 2015 Viper slight power increase, new GT model
Tue, 02 Sep 2014With its troubling sales figures, the newly rechristened SRT Dodge Viper needs to come out swinging for 2015. To do that, Dodge has made a number of tweaks and changes that will hopefully carry the V10-powered sports car into more successful days.
First up for 2015 is a new GT model, which aims to marry the reasonable price of the base car with the adjustable suspension and trick stability control program of the GTS model. The GT also sports a cabin that's covered in Alcantara suede and Nappa leather as standard.
Also new for 2015 is the SRT TA 2.0 Special Edition, which expands on last year's Viper TA by adding new aerodynamic bits and bobs, including a larger rear wing, which ups downforce at 150 miles per hour from 278 pounds to 400 pounds.
Are supercars becoming less special?
Thu, Sep 3 2015There's little doubt that we are currently enjoying the golden age of automotive performance. Dozens of different models on sale today make over 500 horsepower, and seven boast output in excess of 700 hp. Not long ago, that kind of capability was exclusive to supercars – vehicles whose rarity, performance focus, and requisite expense made them aspirational objects of desire to us mortals. But more than that, supercars have historically offered a unique driving experience, one which was bespoke to a particular model and could not be replicated elsewhere. But in recent years, even the low-volume players have been forced to find the efficiencies and economies of scale that formerly hadn't been a concern for them, and in turn the concept of the supercar as a unique entity unto itself is fading fast. The blame doesn't fall on one particular manufacturer nor a specific production technique. Instead, it's a confluence of different factors that are chipping away at the distinction of these vehicles. It's not all bad news – Lamborghini's platform sharing with Audi for the Gallardo and the R8 yielded a raging bull that was more reliable and easier to live with on a day-to-day basis, and as a result it went on to become the best-selling Lambo in the company's history. But it also came at the cost of some of the Italian's exclusivity when eerily familiar sights and sounds suddenly became available wearing an Audi badge. Even low-volume players have been forced to find economies of scale. Much of this comes out of necessity, of course. Aston Martin's recent deal with Mercedes-AMG points toward German hardware going under the hood and into the cabin of the upcoming DB11, and it's safe to assume that this was not a decision made lightly by the Brits, as the brand has built a reputation for the bespoke craftsmanship of its vehicles. There's little doubt that the DB11 will be a fine automobile, but the move does jeopardize some of the characteristic "specialness" that Astons are known for. Yet the world is certainly better off with new Aston Martins spliced with DNA from Mercedes-AMG rather than no new Astons at all, and the costs of developing cutting-edge drivetrains and user interfaces is a burden that's becoming increasingly difficult for smaller manufacturers to bear. Even Ferrari is poised to make some dramatic changes in the way it designs cars.
