67 Dodge Charger Fastback 440 Street Machine 727 Trans 500 Hp Street Strip Video on 2040-cars
Utica, New York, United States
I've owned this car since 1994, It's originally a South Carolina car and
never seen any winters, there is no rust anywhere. It was originally a
383 4 barrel car which I have put a built 440 in it's place with only
about 5,000 miles on the engine since the build. The engine starts with a
71 block and was bored 30 over using plates that simulate the heads
being torqued down, stock rods with forged aluminum TRW 6 pack pistons
with valve reliefs, and a forged crank, 1/2" oil pickup tube and drilled
block to the oil pump 1/2" 906 heads with oversize manley severe duty
2.14/1.81 stainless steel valves. 3 angle valve job. Crower dual pattern
camshaft 292 - 310 duration 537 - 523 lift. 10.20:1 compression ratio.
Stock rockers, shafts, pushrods. This engine was professionally built
and blueprinted and has a Mopar M1 single plane intake with a Holley 750
double pumper carb equipped with a proform main body that eliminates
the choke tower and larger main jets. The oil pan is a Moroso chrome 7
1/2 quart. There is a Be Cool aluminum radiator with an electric fan for
engine cooling. The transmission was built at the same time as the
engine with racing/street use in mind to compliment the semi radical
engine. The transmission was completely rebuilt and has a reverse manual
shift valve body and a Mopar deep pan. Then a Turbo Action 10"
converter was installed. There is a remote transmission cooler mounted
under the radiator to keep it cool. The rear end is an 8 3/4" with a 355
sure grip/posi 489 case. Mopar Super Stock leaf springs with custom
built front spring hangers which allowed me to move the axle back 1" for
the 28" tires with no clearance issues. I then purchased a Mancini
racing driveshaft fully balanced 1" longer than stock to compensate the
custom front spring hangers. It also has bolt in Mopar frame connectors
and Mopar/MSD 6AL ignition with rev limiter. Holley red electric fuel
pump located near the fuel tank which helps feed the Carter mechanical 8
psi pump on the engine. The tires are Mickey Thompson all around
sportsman pro rear sportsman fronts. 28x12.5-15 rears on centerline
polished auto drag rims 15x10 rear. Jet Coated headers with 3"
flowmaster dual exhaust this car really shakes and rumbles the ground
you can feel it running in your chest, and very quick. Next a line loc
was added to heat the tires for drag strip use. Battery is located in
the trunk. The car was professionally and flawlessly painted in 1999
still looks and is flawless this car is perfectly straight no waves or
ripples whatsoever and very deep paint. The color is Porsche Red. Both
bumpers have been re Chromed and the trunk lid chrome has been replaced
along with the quarter end pieces and front fender ends which include
the signals. All rubber pieces, door gaskets and window felts were
replaced. The place that painted it is the best in the area and is known
for their perfect paint jobs. They were the former Custom Body Shop
here in Utica, N.Y. now it's named CARS Collision. They are also Mopar
fanatics. The seats I've changed to race style in front, and re carpeted
the interior and installed a custom instrument panel with all AutoMeter
gauges throughout. Also added a CD player and removed the heater box
and dash ducts for weight savings, also because I never use or planned
to use the car in any inclement weather. This car has never seen rain
since the paint job was done in 1999. I do still have the heater box and
clove compartment liner saved in case I ever wanted to put it back in. I
made the aluminum panel attached to the firewall to hide the heater
motor hole along with the ac/heater hoses holes. This car was equipped
with ac originally, and I saved the condenser along with the lines. This
car was also a vinyl top car originally which the body shop welded the
holes where the moldings go during the paint job, I like this style
charger without the vinyl tops, my opinion. This car runs perfectly and
is turn key, you get in & go. Ive set this car up for pro street
type of use, you can go to the drag strip or just cruise the streets, it
offers a great ride. This car looks so nice the paint is phenomel the sound is fantastic also this is a beauty. Here is the you tube link of my car /address; http://youtu.be/8xPuXW-nXqU

Question of the Day: Most heinous act of badge engineering?
Wed, Dec 30 2015Badge engineering, in which one company slaps its emblems on another company's product and sells it, has a long history in the automotive industry. When Sears wanted to sell cars, a deal was made with Kaiser-Frazer and the Sears Allstate was born. Iranians wanted new cars in the 1960s, and the Rootes Group was happy to offer Hillman Hunters for sale as Iran Khodro Paykans. Sometimes, though, certain badge-engineered vehicles made sense only in the 26th hour of negotiations between companies. The Suzuki Equator, say, which was a puzzling rebadge job of the Nissan Frontier. How did that happen? My personal favorite what-the-heck-were-they-thinking example of badge engineering is the 1971-1973 Plymouth Cricket. Chrysler Europe, through its ownership of the Rootes Group, was able to ship over Hillman Avanger subcompacts for sale in the US market. This would have made sense... if Chrysler hadn't already been selling rebadged Mitsubishi Colt Galants (as Dodge Colts) and Simca 1100s as (Simca 1204s) in its American showrooms. Few bought the Cricket, despite its cheery ad campaign. So, what's the badge-engineered car you find most confounding?

How to turn a Dodge airport tug into a trail slayer
Sun, 16 Nov 2014Sometimes, having a ton of fun requires takes a ton of work. Just nine days before the so-called Ultimate Adventure 2014, the folks behind 4-Wheel & Off-Road had 40 tasks to complete in order to turn the ratty truck pictured above into a machine that could excel on treacherous off-road trails while still being able to handle highway jaunts. Much of process behind the build was chronicled on the latest episode of Dirt Every Day.
The team's vehicle started life as a 1990 Dodge tug truck that spent part of its life hauling around airplanes. The builders hung on to the Cummins six-cylinder diesel, but they tossed out practically everything else for the project, with some seriously heavy-duty replacement parts for the transmission, transfer case, axles and a whole lot more. The process was certainly a ton of work, but the end result looks like a fantastic crawler.
Sure, it might have been easier to bring a truck that was already prepared, but where would the fun in that have been? Stay tuned until the end of the video for a few glimpses of the completed Dodge and peek at some of the punishment it goes through.
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.
