1969 Dodge Charger R/T SE, ....a real XS29L9 R/T with the rare "SE" Option.
Black(X9) with Black Vinyl Roof(AO1), Tan Interior, PS, PB, Tinted Glass, Stripe Delete, Original #'s Matching 440 Magnum Engine(un-rebuilt & never been out of the Car) and 727 HD Automatic Transmission, 3.23 Geared Posi-Traction 8 3/4" Differential, all Original Sheet Metal with one repaint in 1986(Black again),and minor fix-ups back then in 1986, small town British Columbia Canada Car, never hit and very straight body with only minor rock chips. Trunk Floor, Drops, Pans, Frame Rails, Door Lips, all original and in decent shape. It Runs and Drives very well, and the original 440 Magnum can still Roast the tires at will, the Automatic shifts very crisp, no loose Steering Parts, the Brakes feel somewhat "touchy" but I think it is because they are 4 Wheel Drum power assisted ? Stops just fine though. Fender Tag is there and supports everything on the Car...although I have NOT looked for a Broadcast Sheet...no reason to believe it isn't there somewhere ? somebody will probably ask...so I guess I'll take a look, and hope I don't damage anything in the process...stay tuned.
These Cars in this condition, are getting extremely tough to find...most either rusted away to nothing, were beat to death by Hippies, got smashed or written off, and the ones still left... were either "Restored" or "Cloned" into something they were NOT...or never WILL BE.
Makes no sense to me why anybody would spend many Tens of Thousands "restoring" a lesser Charger ? or "Clone" one...... and when done...still not have either the Rarity, Factory Color Options, or Numbers present in this Original R/T SE from new to retain it's Investment Value. It was Family owned for decades, and was basically very well maintained, as evidenced by the original & powerful 440 "Magnum" Engine that wasn't abused, Blown up, and still doesn't smoke. I don't know what a "Survivor" Car is ? or what qualifies as one ?....or if this can be called a "Survivor" Car...because as I said earlier it had a "repaint" and some "fix-ups" in 1986....ALL I DO KNOW....is that it is about as "close it gets" to that Survivor "status" as something that was owned, and DRIVEN, with appropriate care & regular maintenance along the way.
The only "problems" would be the original Gas Tank will need replaced at some point ? and the Sending Unit as the gas gauge quit working ? The car did sit for a period of years, and even though it was garaged, I believe the inside of the tank is "rusty" because it was plugging up the pickup in the tank. It has a small electric pump wired under the hood to help overcome this problem, seems to work fine now and can be driven, but it is not "right" as the Car obviously deserves to be repaired properly with a New Tank & Sending Unit back on the stock pump. Both are available aftermarket.
I noticed the Right Rear Axle Seal is sweating a bit onto the backing plate, it doesn't seem to affect anything, but should be done at some point I guess ?
The Windshield Washer Reservoir has a hole in it, Never tried it, so I don't know if the pump works ? Both available aftermarket.
The Hood Mounted Turn Indicators work fine, but the plastic tangs are broken so maybe loose a bit ? They are available aftermarket.
Ask any questions and I will try and answer as best I can, or send your email for more specific photos requested.
I reserve the right to cancel this E-Bay auction at any time, if Vehicle Sold due to being listed locally outside E-Bay.
Car can be delivered to Eureka Montana 59917 for U.S.A. Buyers, however, all export/import papers are the responsibility of the Buyer, although I will assist those efforts, .....Canadians can drive it away home.

2016 Dodge Viper ACR priced from $117,895
Tue, May 12 2015Fancy getting your hands on the all-new Dodge Viper ACR? Prepare to shell out at least $117,895, not counting destination or gas-guzzler tax. Those two add $1,995 and $2,100, respectively, for an out-the-door price of $121,990. That's $32,900 more than a base 2015 Viper, or the equivalent of a Challenger with a few options. As we explained previously, the ACR model doesn't do much for outright power – the 8.4-liter V10 offers up only five more ponies than before – but it does add suspension and aerodynamic upgrades that make this particular Viper far more potent on the track. The order books are officially open for the ACR, so if you've got the coin, get in touch with your local dealer. Until then, head into Comments and let us know what you think of the ACR's pricing. Would you shell out $118,000 for the ultimate Viper? DODGE OPENS ORDER BANKS FOR NEW 2016 DODGE VIPER ACR The fastest street-legal Viper track car ever offers a tremendous value for performance May 12, 2015 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - Viper enthusiasts with the need for ultimate handling, performance and road course domination, as well as the ability to drive their Viper home from the track, can now place their orders for the fastest street-legal Viper track car ever. The Dodge brand has announced pricing and opened order banks for the recently introduced 2016 Dodge Viper ACR. Unveiled last week at the revamped Conner Avenue Assembly Plant in Detroit, the American Club Racer model of the iconic, hand-built American supercar will have a starting U.S. Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of $117,895 (excluding destination and gas guzzler tax). "Bringing our street-legal Dodge Viper ACR back is going to arm our track enthusiasts with the ultimate weapon to dominate road courses across the country," said Tim Kuniskis, President and CEO - Dodge and SRT Brands, FCA - North America. "This is without a doubt the best Viper ACR ever. The latest in aerodynamic, braking and tire technology will ensure its legendary performance reputation around the world." Originally introduced in 1999 and last available for the 2010 model year, the Viper ACR has a long-standing legacy as the ultimate street-legal track car for club racing. The new 2016 model honors that performance legacy with significant aerodynamic and suspension upgrades, new Carbon Ceramic brakes with six-piston calipers and high-performance tires specifically designed for ACR.
How fracking is causing Chrysler minivans to sit on Detroit's riverfront
Fri, 25 Apr 2014It's fascinating the way that one change to a complex system can have all sorts of unintended consequences. For instance, there are hundreds of new Chrysler Town and County and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans built in Windsor, Ontario, sitting in lots on the Detroit waterfront because of the energy boom in the Bakken oil field in the northern US and parts of Canada.
The huge amount of crude oil coming from these sites mostly use freight trains for transport, and that supply boom has resulted in a shortage of railcars to carry other goods. According to The Windsor Star, North American crude oil transport by train has gone from 9,500 carloads in 2008 to 434,032 carloads in 2013. Making matters worse, some North American rail infrastructure is still damaged because of this year's harsh winter, and that's slowing things down even further.
Chrysler admits to The Star that it has had some delivery delays due to the freight train shortage. In the meantime, it's using more trucks to deliver its vehicles. Trucking is a far less economical solution, partially because a train can carry so many more units at one time, but alternatives are slim. The Windsor plant alone has a deal for 33 trucks to distribute the minivans around Canada and the Midwestern US.
MotorWeek relives '80s coupes with Dodge Daytona, Ford Escort EXP
Thu, Aug 6 2015Get ready for a wave of nostalgia and the rapid realization of the huge progress in performance cars over the last 30 years. For its latest Retro Review, MotorWeek takes a look back at two, front-wheel drive coupes from the '80s that seem to have entirely vanished from the roads today. Both the 1986 Dodge Daytona CS and the 1986.5 Ford Escort EXP were considered affordable, sporty options in their day, but the passage of time hasn't been kind to either of their specs. The Daytona certainly looks the part of a performance machine with a body that's reminiscent of other '80s coupes, like the third-gen Chevrolet Camaro. However with 146 horsepower and 170 pound-feet of torque from a 2.2-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, acceleration wasn't exactly a strong suit. MotorWeek complained about copious torque steer, as well. The optional CS suspension upgrade package on this Daytona was apparently a nod to Carroll Shelby who was working with Dodge at the time. If anything, the Escort EXP withstands the test of time even worse. As a two-seat coupe, you might have expected Ford's engineers to really turn up the performance to fit the sporty image that the exterior conveyed. That didn't really happen, and depending on which model buyers ordered, they got either 86 horsepower with a 1.9-liter engine or the "high-output" version of that mill with 108 hp.
