This is a 1963 Dodge Dart GT Convertible.  This maybe the most complete 1963 GT convertible existing today.  You can find junk 270s and Frankenstein GTs although a true complete 1963 GT convertible is extremely rare.  This is a true California car please see the stack of California registrations, this includes the original 1963 California registration.  I have the original vin number matching warranty book signed Christmas 1962 and picked up New Years day 1963.  An additional 30+ years of California registrations, the vintage operators manual and Dealer promo hand out.  I have owned the car for 6 years and have brought it back its original 1963 standards.  It is original paint and it does have chips and scratches.  All of stainless trim, mirrors, handles, badges belong to this car right down to the lighter.  It has miraculously never been molested. 

I have just completed a long block on a true 1963 block and have added hardened valves so will run great on unleaded.  The engine was professionally rebuilt and installed and has less than 500 miles on it. It is the Famous 225 Slant Six the largest motor offered this year for the Dart.  The 273 did not come into production until 1964 for the Dart.  The receipts will be included.  The interior and new top was completed by Rocket Restorations of Olympia.  Check out their web site, they are a premiere MOPAR restoration shop.  It has the original push button transmission.  The exhaust is new from the manifold to the Flowmaster muffler all the way to the stainless tip. The points have been replaced with a Pertronix ignition kit.  I will include a complete book that includes 50 years of documentation to the current day.  This car has a true pedigree.  

Still to go, it could use a new sending unit for the gas gauge although averages about 23 mpg.  I have the book with every fill up over the last six years.  The rag top is counter balanced so manually goes up and down easily by one person.  The electric top has a new motor installed although new rams would be required if the next owner wanted to install.   

This car is a true pleasure to drive and a fun dependable head turner.

Jay Leno gets his denim mitts on Dodge's new Challenger Hellcat

Mon, 04 Aug 2014

The 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat is definitely the performance car of the moment. The fact that in the near future, people will be able to buy a 707-horsepower muscle machine straight from a major automaker for $59,995 and with a factory warranty almost seems absurd. We drove it recently and found the Hellcat to be just as much of a beast as its numbers would suggest. Now, it's a certain comedian's turn behind the wheel in the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage.
This week's guest is Dodge President and CEO Tim Kuniskis, and he's there to drop all sorts of interesting factoids about the Hellcat. For example, its Pirelli P Zero tires retail at around $300 each, he says. That makes its smoky burnouts a rather expensive proposition. Kuniskis, who recently hinted at a mystery Woodward Dream Cruise debut, also talks about the genesis of the 2015 SRT project with a goal to get over some of the standard Challenger's weight and size disadvantages. The fix is a supercharged V8, massive brakes and other goodies to smooth over the platform's more glaring shortcomings.
Leno appears to get a big kick out of the Hellcat. However, he can't seem to stop bringing up his desire to drive one with a six-speed manual. They obviously exist, but Kuniskis has an eight-speed automatic for the retired Tonight Show host to try out. Of course, as with any Hellcat video, there has to be at least one burnout. Despite the expensive tires, it seems like enthusiast's law at this point - and dear ol' Jay wouldn't want to break any rules, would he?

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax

Thu, 24 Jul 2014



The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.

Turn up the volume: Flat out in the Dodge Charger Scat Pack

Thu, Jul 4 2019

The 2019 Dodge Charger R/T Scat Pack is a rare breed in the car market. It's a reasonably affordable large sedan with a huge honking V8 and rear wheel drive. You know, the perfect car for this Fourth of July. Or any day ending in Y, really. The R/T Scat Pack is the second most powerful version of the sedan with a 6.4-liter naturally aspirated V8 making 485 horsepower and 475 pound-feet of torque. Only the 707-horsepower Hellcat is a more powerful Charger. But power is only part of the story. The other part is the noise. The V8 has a gritty, dirty rumble to it. We recorded it cruising up on-ramps, down shifting, and got a few standing revs out of it. Check out the video to hear for yourself.
