1969 Super bee A12  440 Sixpack 4-Speed Reproduction

If you were serious about going fast in 1969, the Dodge store was where you should have been shopping. They were so serious, in fact, that they built these incredible A12-code cars with 440 cubic inches, three 2-barrel carbs, and a wild lift-off fiberglass hood. In fact, they were serious enough to forego even hubcaps on the car, knowing that racers wouldn’t need them, or better yet, would simply be installing a set of lightweight aftermarket wheels the minute they got home. Lightweight, cheap, and scary fast was a recipe that served the Super Bees extremely well.

This Original F8 1969 Super bee A12 Reproduction  is a great example of the buy-it-today, race-it-tomorrow cars that Dodge was putting out at the height of the muscle car era. Subject to a restoration three years ago, it remains in nice condition today, ready to show or enjoy. This car can be purchased at the fraction of the cost of an original A12 car. One added bonus is this is a true Superbee with original fender tag.

This car was built like the originals.  There are no options on the car except for the 440 Six Pack engine, 4-Speed and the white Bumblebee sport stripe on the tail. Personally, I really dig the stripped down, bare-knuckled street fighters like this – they don’t have any kind of identity crisis like some of the loaded up cars might. You wanted fast, this is what you bought. If you wanted something with more luxury, you bought something else that wasn’t as fast. Combined with that lift-off hood, cars like this certainly separated the men from the boys.

That’s right, nothing but the go-fast gear. You got a problem with that? Maybe this is too much car for you, after all. Allow us to show you something more modest, say, in the minivan department.

If you’re still with me, let’s talk about the detailing on this car. Top and bottom, it is very presentable. The bodywork is nice quality. In fact, it’s a lot nicer than any street racer has a right to be. The A12-specific hood has the correct finish (many times the black is too flat). It rolls on a set of black steel wheels.  And since these cars didn’t come with hubcaps, the factory dressed them up with chrome lug nuts.

Underhood, it has a correct Six Pack air cleaner, electronic ignition and Mopar Performance Valve covers.  The engine itself is a stock built 440 with pleanty of power. The rear is an 8 3/4 with 391 gears.

Inside, you’ll find a mix of nice original parts with high quality reproductions. The dash bezels look good, as do the new armrest and inside door handles. All soft trim from the headliner to the door panels to the carpet is in perfect shape. As you can see it has a  rally dash.

Muscle car collecting is about reliving an era that we’ll probably never see again. It was a time when there weren’t as many rules, and the factory-built cars were purpose-built weapons that any guy could put on the street. The A12s were perhaps the most pure expression of Chrysler’s go-fast, no-frills, take-no-prisoners philosophy, and this car is a great example of it. If you want your iron fist hidden in a velvet glove, you should probably buy something else. If you simply want the iron fist, however, this is exactly the car for you.

Hennessey's Dodge Challenger Hellcat cranks out 1,032 hp

Mon, Feb 22 2016

Enthusiasts know the Dodge Challenger Hellcat produces 707 horsepower. It's one of the modern muscle-car era's iconic numbers. But for some, that's not enough. Enter Hennessey Performance. The Texas tuners loaded the Hellcat with a twin-turbocharger that works with Dodge's supercharger to boost output to 1,032 hp and 987 pound-feet of torque. Yes, that's an engine dyno rating, not at the rear wheels, but still! It's a little more complicated than a bolt-on booster. Called the HPE1000, the turbo kit has stainless steel headers and down pipes, billet aluminum compressor wheels, and a high-flow air system. There's also an an improved fuel pump, and the engine and chassis are specially calibrated. You also get numbered plaques signed by John Hennessey himself and the engine tech who builds your mill. All of this helps get your Hellcat to 60 miles per hour in 2.7 seconds, and it can do the quarter mile in 9.9 seconds at 142 mph. The Hellcat and it's 6.2-liter blown Hemi V8 are not for the faint of heart. Hennessey makes this Dodge downright demonic.

Dodge revamping lineup with AWD Challenger and lighter Charger

Tue, Sep 6 2016

Dodge's current lineup is aging rapidly. The Charger, for example, is going on 5 years old but its platform dates back to 2006. FCA, according to Automotive News, is working on revitalizing Dodge's lineup with the first of some new models debuting later this year. The report reveals plans for the majority of FCA's brands, but the most interesting bit of information is an all-wheel-drive model for the Dodge Challenger, which is being referred to as the GT AWD. Mopar unveiled the Challenger GT AWD Concept at SEMA last year as a concept, but it looks like the idea stuck. The vehicle is set to make its debut this fall and will lead the way for a wide-body, Hellcat-powered version that will be released in 2017. That model will be called the Challenger ADR. The entire Challenger lineup will be redesigned in 2018, which includes switching over to the lighter Giorgio platform - the same one that underpins the Alfa Romeo Guilia Dodge will also redesign the Charger to accommodate the new Giorgio platform in 2018. A new two-door convertible could debut in 2021, resurrecting the Barracuda moniker. The aging Dodge Durango will get a light refresh in 2017 with the addition of an SRT model, which Automotive News reports will feature a 6.4-liter V8 engine. Other changes are in store for other FCA brands, including the debut of full-size crossover in 2018 for Chrysler, which will be followed by a midsize crossover in 2019. The Jeep Compass and Wrangler will get a redesign for 2017, with the Cherokee getting a light makeover, as well. The Wrangler-based pickup truck, which we recently spotted testing, is set for its debut in 2018, while the Wagoneer will come out a year later.

Dodge celebrates big B-day with 100th Anniversary Editions muscle cars

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

Being in business for 100 years is a HUGE milestone, so we hope Dodge has more in mind to celebrate its centennial than just a special edition package for the 2014 Charger and Challenger. Called the 100th Anniversary Edition package, this collection of cosmetic enhancements will be available in limited quantities for both cars at a cost of $2,500.
Ordering a Charger or Challenger with the 100th Anniversary Edition package means starting with either a V6-powered SXT Plus or V8-powered R/T Plus model. They can each be ordered in many colors, but only the High-Octane Red Pearl Coat above is an anniversary exclusive. Each car also comes with an anniversary-exclusive set of 20-inch, five-spoke wheels with what Dodge calls "Granite Crystal pockets," a texture that's also mirrored on each car's grille.
Of course, there are commemorative badges galore affixed to the exterior of each car, including "Dodge Est. 1914" fender badges and "100" logos on the center caps of each wheel. The styling theme of each car's interior is a bit more interesting, with Dodge designers trying to evoke "the patina and machinist legacy of John and Horace Dodge," the company's founders. To that end, the leather interior can be had in Molten Red or Foundry Black Nappa, and each features a custom cloud overprint that makes the hide look like a working man's dirty dungarees. Designers also used brass-colored accent stitching on the interior's leather trim pieces, and affixed more "Dodge Est. 1914" badges to the front seat backs and floor mats. We do like the flat-bottomed steering wheel, and the Challenger 100th Anniversary Edition gets exclusive white gauges faces and the Charger black. The "100" on each car's speedometer is also highlighted in red.
