Two 1971 Dodge Chargers . One of them is a 383 4 speed Charger 500 that has a 440 in it. The other is a plain Charger that came with a low perf 383 auto but the engine and trans are long gone. The 500 has a 440 and still retains the 4 speed with a 8 3/4 . The red 500 is sort of rusty but could be fixed .
I bought the Yellow Charger because the body is in really nice shape and only has rust on the roof . Some one started to fix up the yellow car by painting the engine bay orange. This car has Power disc brakes with A/C and power steering. No engine or transmission . It is appearant that someone had converted it to a 4 speed so it has the pedals and a nasty hole in the floor for the shifter but other wise the body is very solid.
. The red 500 has had a paint job . It was born light blue, most likely it got wrecked in the early 80's, the original 383 is long gone. The origin of the 440 is unclear and has been rebuilt . It currenty has a bad starter and hasn't run for a few years. Both cars have Iowa titles .
I had plans on making one good car but my interest have changed. I just want to move them . They should go together and I hope to make a deal with some one who can handle two cars. Check 'em out and make an offer. I would split them up and I could use the 440 for another project I have if that becomes a bargining chip. I would consider trades of 69 GTX or Super Bee cars or parts. I also have other cars for sale or trade. Located in eastern Iowa along I-80.

I want to make it clear that the auction is for both Dodge Chargers, The winning bid takes both cars and I will the leave the engine in the red car.There is still no engine or trans with the yellow car .Both cars have Iowa titles.

Dodge Viper recall requires small-handed mechanics
Fri, 25 Apr 2014It has been over a year since Chrysler first announced its recall of 3,660 2003-2004 Dodge Vipers because the airbag could suddenly deploy. The repairs are finally beginning, and it appears to be a nightmare for mechanics.
According to the automaker's filing with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag control module can fail, which causes the bag or the seatbelt pre-tensioner to deploy without warning. It took over a year to design the new parts, according to The New York Times. However, Chrysler finally has a new "jumper harness with an in-line diode filter circuit" ready to fix the problem.
The dilemma now moves to the mechanics who have to actually install the part. A 47-step guide from Chrysler explains that the procedure should take about two hours. It's not an easy job, though. Most of the dashboard has to be taken apart, and the instructions include this helpful bit of advice: "Installing the jumper harness and filter box into position is not an easy task. Patience, perseverance, and small hands are required." We wish the best of luck to them. The fix comes just in time for the Vipers to enjoy the summer sun.
Chrysler recalling 280k Dodge Ram 1500 pickups over axle seizures
Fri, Dec 19 2014Following a June investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles will be recalling 280,000 Dodge Ram pickups from model year 2005. The issue, NHTSA told The Detroit News, centered on a loose pinion nut, which could cause the rear axle to seize and, potentially, the driveshaft to detach. The affected vehicles were built between January of 2004 and August of 2005, while of the 280,000 trucks, only 257,000 were sold in the US market. According to The News, the recall will begin on February 13, and will see owners report to dealerships to have "a retention feature" added to the pinion nut.
Chrysler recalling 278,222 trucks and SUVs over bad rear axles
Thu, 14 Feb 2013Chrysler has issued a recall of 278,222 light trucks and sport utility vehicles here in the United States. The reason: bad rear axles. Specifically, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the rear axle pinion nut may lack a necessary adhesive patch, which could cause the nut to loosen. If this happens, the axle can lock up, which could cause all sorts of havoc on the road.
This is an expansion of the rear axle recall announced in October of last year, where 44,300 Ram 1500 and Dodge Dakota models were being called in. At that time, 12 accidents had been reported due to the faulty axle pinion nut.
Affected vehicles include Ram 1500 trucks from the 2009 to 2012 model years, Dodge Dakota models from the 2009 to 2011 model years, and both the Chrysler Aspen and Dodge Durango SUV twins, both from the 2009 model year only.
