 This auction, with low reserve, is for a very rare 1962 Dodge Dart 440 Convertible. I have had this car for about 25 years with the plan to restore it, but never got around to it. The auction will include many spare parts including: Left and Right rear quarter panels, Left and Right front fenders, Left and right inner fenders, Tail Light bezels, gauge and speedometer assembly, a 318 engine, and more. The sheet metal parts and engine were purchased in Florida and are solid except for a little rust along bottom edge. The doors, windows, hood, and trunk lid on the Dart all seem to be solid. The floor in this Dart (particularly rear seat) needs to be replaced. Also, about 20 years ago a wheel and axel shop did some welding , I believe on the torsion bar system, and now the drivers door pinches and does not open. This can be fixed by undoing the welding or by adjustment on the fenders when or if they are replaced. The Dart needs the brake cylinders and probably the master cylinder rebuilt. This car hasn't been driven in three years, since the brakes went out. It has been stored inside since I've had it. The fuel pump and starter were replaced three years ago. The gas float and filter assembly in the fuel tank were replaced 4 years ago. The seat covers need some work. The convertible top is dirty but is solid and the hydraulic pump works. The top does need new window seals though. The car also needs a set of tires.

All in all this is an excellent project car and a rare one too. I hate to part with it, but we are moving and have to downsize-meaning I have to get rid of some toys. This is the second 1962 Dodge Dart Convertible that I have owned. The first was in the late 60's until I went in the Army. When I saw this one in the late 80's, I had to have it. I haven't seen another "62 Dart Convertible since, including in car shows.

I am selling this car and all extra parts, as is, with what I believe to be a low reserve. Buyer to pay and arrange all shipping costs. I have included many pictures of the car and extra parts. If you have any questions, please email or call me at 920-276-2012 or 262-490-5398. Thanks for looking and Good Luck with your bid!

South Dakota dealer filled to brim with classic cars

Wed, 12 Mar 2014

Other than the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and Mount Rushmore, South Dakota isn't generally a hot topic, but that just means that cool stuff can hide in the open waiting to be discovered. Case in point: the classic car dealer Frankman Motor Company that operates three locations in Sioux Falls, SD.
Unearthed by the folks at Bring a Trailer, Frankman is a treasure trove of vintage, American iron. Their collection is full of the type of vehicles your irresponsible but cool uncle would show up with when you were a kid. Even better, these cars are priced at a level a working man can afford.
If you are lusting about a cruiser then Frankman has a 1956 Cadillac Deville Hard Top Sedan (pictured right) with 82,896 miles for $12,975. It's painted a color called Cascade Grey, but looks more like a pastel purple in pictures. While it needs some repairs to the accessories, the Caddy runs and drives, which is all you really need.

2014 Challenger R/T Shaker, Mopar '14 Challenger bring back iconic hood

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

Enamored of the Dodge Challenger but wish you could get one with a shaker hood? We've got good news, because Dodge and Mopar have teamed up to bring it back.
The 2014 Dodge Challenger R/T Shaker packs the same 5.7-liter Hemi V8 as the standard Challenger R/T, but upgrades the business end with a through-the-hood exposed cold-air intake system. The retro hood scoop protrudes from the center of the hood in satin black (matching the decklid spoiler) to feed the Hemi and shakes with the engine just like the original from 1970. The Shaker model also comes with a Super Track Pak that adds a new steering rack, brake linings, shocks and 20-inch Goodyear Eagle F1 Super Car rubber. You can also shut off the stability management system completely in this car. A series of interior and exterior trim enhancements round out the look. The whole package adds $2,500 to the price of a Challenger R/T Classic for an all-in MSRP of $36,995.
In case that's not enough, Dodge is also offering a limited-edition Mopar Challenger that follows the 2010 Mopar Challenger, 2011 Mopar Charger, 2012 Mopar 300 and 2013 Mopar Dart. Limited to just 100 examples, the 2014 Mopar Challenger gets the same Shaker hood intake, unique graphics and wheels, an enhanced interior and a long list of optional extras from the Mopar parts catalog. Dodge isn't saying just yet how much the Mopar Challenger will cost, but you can bet it will command a considerable premium for the exclusivity alone.

Ron Burgundy returns for four more Dodge Durango ads

Mon, 04 Nov 2013

Dodge has released several more of its Anchorman 2-themed commercials, starring Will Ferrell as inept newsreader Ron Burgundy. The four spots, one of which is a sequel to a previous commercial, follow roughly the same pattern as previous ads, with Ferrell's Burgundy misunderstanding or generally making a fool of himself. For some of the ads, though, Burgundy is selling more than just Durangos - the red-suited host of San Diego's most watched news broadcast shilling the entire Dodge lineup.
We've included all four ads down below, and you can also hope over to our original posts to see some of the older commercials. Oh, and if you're getting tired of these - we aren't, aside from the Do-dge spot - just remember that Ferrell reportedly filmed around 70 ads for Dodge.
