1970 Dodge Dart Swinger
340, 4-speed
Original Motor/Transmission/Interior/Carpet/Windows/Half of exhaust/Hoses/Rally Wheels/trunk mat/jack, and get this, the original spare tire which has never been used.
This is the A body you have been waiting for!

I am the documented third owner of this car. I have the original title, fender tag (on car), and two build sheets. But here is something amazing, the two build sheets have the same VIN number but are different! One build sheet has the car being built as a FLEET vehicle while the second has it being built as the 340 Swinger.

Highly unusual and rare color combination of TX9 Black exterior and F8 and EF8 Green interior. This car is quite possibly the only car ever ordered with these specs. If it matters to you, Galen Govier decoded and documented the car.

A few items currently on car that are not original are; correct 1970 woodgrain steering wheel (I have original Green Steering Wheel), shift knob (I have original shift knob), brake and clutch pedals (I have both originals), Bias Ply tires and dog dish caps (I have original rally wheels), "Direct Connection" valve covers (I have the original valve covers). The car was painted in 2000. It still looks awesome and the car is straight as an arrow. There is one very small bit of bubbling at the very bottom corner of the passenger rocker panel. I have put a "ghost" flat black Bumblebee stripe on the car (because I like the way it looks). All of the above mentioned original parts will be included in the sale. In photos, car has an old air filter housing, car now has the original air cleaner housing and 340 pie tin. 

     This is a D21/D57/D91 A833, 4-speed, 3.91, Sure Grip axle car!

I have put a great deal of money into maintaining this vehicle. It has never seen rain or snow while I have owned it. In winter it is stored under cover in a dry garage. Car will come with all receipts for work done and items purchased.

It pains me greatly to sell this car, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

Don't let this car get away!

Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. This car is used, and comes with NO warranty or guarantees.
 I have described this vehicle to the best of my ability, it is being sold in used, as-is condition. Feel free to stop in and see the car for yourself. I live about 15 minutes from Newark Liberty International Airport.
I have the car advertised locally and can remove it from this listing at any time. Please, please, please,  IF YOU BID AND WIN THIS CAR, PLEASE HAVE THE FUNDS TO FOLLOW THROUGH AND BUY IT. The car will not be released until funds have cleared. Please feel free to contact me by the "ask seller a question" feature.

2003-04 Dodge Viper recalled for sudden airbag deployment

Fri, 15 Feb 2013

As if driving the old Dodge Viper (not the fancy new SRT model) isn't intimidating enough, imagine trying to wrangle that V10 beast and then suddenly having the airbags deploy. Yikes. That's apparently what could happen to some 3,660 Viper models from the 2003 and 2004 model years, and as such, Chrysler has issued a recall.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, part of the car's airbag control module may fail, causing the bags or seatbelt pre-tensioners to deploy without warning while the vehicle is in operation. That's a dangerous scenario in any car, let alone one offering insane horsepower a near-total paucity of safety nannies should things get squirrely.
Owners will be notified this month about the recall, though a remedy is not expected to be available until later this year. Scroll down for the full NHTSA statement.

2015 Dodge Charger darts into NY traffic

Thu, 17 Apr 2014

Meet the refreshed 2015 Dodge Charger; notice anything different? You would have to be pretty farsighted to miss the sedan's new Dart-like nose, and it's likely going to be quite polarizing to the car's fans. Gone are the previous furrowed, aggressive headlights in favor of a wider, friendlier look.
While the more rounded headlights and narrower grille are going to be the first thing most people notice, Dodge claims its designers have made changes to nearly every panel on the Charger. The hood dips down deeper at the front, and the doors show off a more angled version of the car's shoulder blister. LED running lights and taillights are standard on all models, and SXT and RT trims get LED foglights. Even though the front might not be as intimidating, Dodge has hung onto the sedan's muscular stance with angular contours making up the rest of the redesign.
Under the hood is the same engine range you've come to know over recent years. Both the 5.7-liter V8 and the 3.6-liter V6 return for 2015, with the Hemi making 370 horsepower and 395 pound-feet of torque, and the standard Pentestar outputting 292 hp and 260 lb-ft. All models are now equipped with Chrysler's TorqueFlight eight-speed automatic as standard. Fuel economy for V8 Chargers is predicted at 16 miles per gallon city and 25 mpg highway, compared to 15 mpg / 25 mpg last year with a five-speed automatic. All models also come with electric power steering, and the axles are cast from aluminum to save weight.

Auto Mergers and Acquisitions: Suicide or salvation?

Tue, Sep 8 2015

We love the Moses figure. A savior riding in from stage right with the ideas, the smarts, and the scrappiness to put things right. Alan Mullaly. Carroll Shelby. Lee Iacocca. Andrew Carnegie. Steve Jobs. Elon Musk. Bart Simpson. Sergio Marchionne does not likely view himself with Moses-like optics, but the CEO of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles recently gave a remarkable, perhaps prophetic interview with Automotive News about his interest and the inevitability of merging with a potential automotive partner like General Motors. Marchionne has been overtly public about his notion that GM must merge with FCA. For a bit of context, GM sold 9.9 million vehicles in 2014, posting $2.8 billion in net income, while FCA sold 4.75 million units and earned $2.4 billion in net income, painting a very rosy FCA earnings-to-sales picture. But that's not the entire picture. Most people in the auto industry still remember the trainwreck that was the DaimlerChrysler "merger" written in what turned out to be sand in 1998. It proved to be a master class in how not to fuse two companies, two cultures, two continents, and two management teams. Oh, it worked for the two individuals at both helms pre-merger. They got silly rich. And the industry itself was in a misty romance at the time with mergers and acquisitions. BMW bought Rolls-Royce. Volkswagen Group bought Bentley, Bugatti, and Lamborghini, putting all three brands into their rightful place in both products and positioning. No marriages there, so no false pretense. Finally, Nissan and Renault got married in 1999. A successful marriage requires several rare elements in this atmosphere of gas fumes and power lust. But a successful marriage requires several rare elements in this atmosphere of gas fumes and power lust, the principle part being honesty. Daimler and Chrysler lied to each other. The heads of each unit, the product planners, and finance all presented their then-current and long-range forecasts to each other with less-than-forthright accuracy. Daimler was the far greater equal and no one from the Chrysler side enjoyed that. The cultures were entirely different, too, and little was done to bridge that gap. Which brings me back to the present overtures by Marchionne to GM. "There are varying degrees of hugs," Marchionne stated in the Automotive News piece. "I can hug you nicely, I can hug you tightly, I can hug you like a bear, I can really hug you." Seriously?
