1970 Dodge Charger Texas Car Needs Restoration Very Solid on 2040-cars
United States
First of all, I am relisting this item due to the winning bidder not paying for it in the last auction. No deposit, no nothing! Winning bidder never asked questions and never came to look at the car. Ebay is giving me a credit for the listing. Ebay is dinging the winning bidders ebay record. I don't feel this is justification for a non paying bidder, but what can you do. I apologize for those bidders who didn't have a fair chance at the prior auction due to this non paying bidder.
Well, to move forward see the below listing: This 1970 Dodge Charger needs a complete restoration. It has been apart for probably 15 years or longer. I bought the car from a mechanic who had planned to rebuild the car someday. Before I acquired it, he had the unibody blasted. All of the remaining metal and parts were stored in an AC garage or attic for many years. Rust was not an issue for these parts since they were stored indoors. As a result the original padding, metal and all other components looks to be in pretty good shape. Some metal that will need to be replaced: The trunk pan will need to be replaced, exterior sail panels(may be able to use existing ones), around rear window needs some attention, lower rear quarters. It needs the normal metal work for a Charger or mopar from Texas. The Unibody has already been blasted so that all rust holes are visible. The unibody currently has a temporary protective coating which was applied after it was blasted. The Charger is originally a 318 automatic transmission (D31) car. You will get an manual transmission with the car as well as a 318 engine and automatic which are currently bolted together. The Charger does have the original fender tag. I have many parts with this Charger. It is an AC car. All that I have regarding the AC is the AC/ Heater Box. I do not have the rear end axle for the car. I am giving both automatic and manual transmission with the car because of this. The manual transmission has a 18 spline shaft. The charger has a 4 speed floor console and the floor was cut at one point to fit a 4 speed, the doors retain their door glass. I have buckets of parts for this car. The grill looks to be in very good shape too! Please see the photos for more details on the parts and the car. This is a great Charger to build your Clone 440 RT or Clone Hemi RT. It is very solid for a restoration project! I have built many B and E body mopars and if I wanted to build a clone, I would use this car! If you are interested in this Dodge Charger I recommend seeing it before you bid. If you would like to see the car call and set an appointment. For any questions or appointments you can call 972.742.8191. Please note, I have described this ad to the best of my ability. This vehicle is sold as is where is no warranty implied. Thanks |

2015 Dodge Charger R/T Scat Pack Quick Spin
Thu, Jun 18 2015"Scat Pack" is plucked from The Big Book of Dodge Nameplates to describe what is basically the average of the Charger R/T and Charger SRT 392. Unnecessary horsepower always seems to go down better with a dose of heritage. If you think it's a silly name, just be thankful Dodge didn't call it an S/RT or an R/T-S. In previous years, a similar formulation was known as the SRT8 Super Bee. Going by another name, it's still as sweet and wears the same hurried-looking pollinator on the grille. We do wonder: What has displeased him so, and why does he have wings and wheels? The packaging is at least fresh. All Chargers get updates for 2015, including improved interiors and a Dart-on-steroids exterior redo. The new lines work especially well on the more aggressive models, including this Scat Pack car. Like the Super Bee before it, the Scat Pack gets the 6.4-liter engine from SRT 392; for 2015 it gets a slight output boost to 485 horsepower and 475 pound-feet of torque, respective increases of 15 and 5. It does without the SRT three-mode suspension and comes with cloth seats (leather is an option) to keep the price down. The Scat Pack also has slightly smaller Brembo front brakes, narrower wheels, and different rubber. It does, however, cost eight grand less and is just as quick in a straight line. Intriguing. Driving Notes Scat Pack cars get an electronically controlled active exhaust that we'd call hyperactive. It's loud all the time, opening its widest at startup, idle, and when you ask for any appreciable amount of power. Sport mode supposedly makes a difference, but we couldn't discern loud from louder. It's a delicious and appropriate loudness, with a brassy trumpet tone to it, and the engine makes top-fuel noises at full tilt. The squeal of the rear tires can be heard from every stoplight no matter the road conditions. A light touch avoids leaving a mark if you're so inclined. We weren't. When the tires eventually smear into the realm of traction, this thing is pretty quick – hitting 60 miles per hour takes 4.5 seconds. There's also an adjustable launch control mode if you want to cut out some of the wheelspin. The eight-speed transmission shifts smoothly. Quicker, more-palpable shifts are had in Sport mode, but occasionally the transmission still needs a moment to drop down from seventh or eighth when you mash the throttle. Despite its two overdrive gears, this Charger is still loud on the highway. In a good way. Probably.
Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat in the works
Fri, 25 Jul 2014In Autoblog's recent First Drive of the 2015 Challenger SRT with the 707-horsepower Hellcat V8 we found its engine to be as brutally powerful as the numbers would suggest, even if it wasn't the best handler. However, the muscle-car-styling just isn't right for some buyers that need four doors and proper rear seats to haul around the family. It appears that Dodge has their backs, though, because the Hellcat is very likely on its way into the Charger in the near future. Imagine the looks on your passengers' faces when you stomp down on the throttle.
According to Road and Track, when Dodge submitted the Hellcat for engine power certification to the Society of Automotive Engineers, the company included the Charger on the paperwork. That showed that the automaker wanted the engine checked out for the sedan, too. R&T reckons the 707-hp Charger would hit the road about a year from now, clearing the Challenger for a year of exclusivity with the powerplant.
When the Charger SRT Hellcat does hit the road, it may carry a very special accolade. Assuming nothing beats it in the meantime, it might be the world's highest horsepower production sedan. Think on that for a second. Even a Mercedes S65 AMG only has 621 horsepower, though a good bit more torque at 738 pound-feet to the Dodge's 650 lb-ft. So while the beastly engine is getting put into other models, where else would you like to see it? The Ram? Grand Cherokee? Let us know in Comments.
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles: The next five years
Tue, 06 May 2014Unless you've been living under a rock for the past 24 hours, you've no doubt read about all of the big future product news coming out of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles today. We had individual brand reports from Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram, Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Maserati and even Ferrari, but in the interest of simplifying and summarizing, we're going to list out the hard facts once more. Of course, with all of this still off in the future, there's still the possibility that a few changes will be made. But as of what we know right now, here's what's coming, and what's going away.
