I have forsale a 1971 dodge Dart. 340 cubic inch motor, New 727 automatic transmission, new interior, headliner ect. I bought this car about 9 years ago and its been great to work on and play with. I have taken it to numerous car shows and Good Guys car show every year since finished.
Under the hood is a 1971 dodge 340 with a mild purple molley cam, and lifters. Edelbrock carb, breather, valve covers. Steel water lines, new gas tank and a holley fuel pump. The transmission is a new 727 automatic with about 5000 miles on it. New tires and rims and brakes. Brakes are still manual. Paint is about 8 years old and looks great from about 15 feet. Could use new paint it you wanted to make it a show car. The gauge cluster needs to be rebuilt as the gas gauge, temp and oil pressure are inop. I do have aftermarket gauges installed that do work. Original radio but not hooked up. Has an aftermarket cd player.
I have a couple other cars and I really dont have to sell this one. I would like to sell this to buy a Harley. I have done the car shows for several years and would like to switch it up and go to Sturgis. Would be up for trades for the right Harley of equal value. NO Sportsters.
I am asking $12000.00 or best offer, I have about $21,000.00 invested. I recently advertised this on craigslist and was contacted by Autotrader who wanted to to advertise with them and advised that I was actually $2000,00 under what the car is worth. So I dont see any reason why the price should be an issue.
If you have the winning bid then I expext to be paid. There will be a $500.00 non refundable deposit within 24 hours if you do win the auction. I would just assume to be paid in cash and in person. If a check is to be used, the car and title will stay with me until the check clears. If you plan on having it shipped I will assist in what ever way I can. I do have this car listed privately and reserve the right to end the auction at any time if it sells locally.
Please bid with confidence as this is a pretty nice machine.

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.
Dodge hoping Fast & Furious appearance gives Dart a sales jolt [w/video]
Tue, 28 May 2013According to Automotive News, Chrysler is hoping Fast & Furious 6 will be kind to the Dodge Dart. While the compact sedan doesn't actually show up in the film, Dodge has partnered up with the movie franchise for a new ad featuring the Dart.
Chrysler hasn't exactly seen the high sales numbers it was originally hoping for with the new sedan, thanks in part to a couple of missteps. For starters, most early-production vehicles were only offered with a manual transmission. Analysts believe Chrysler squandered around 95 percent of potential Dart sales because automatic transmission options weren't immediately available.
Right now, the Dodge Dart rakes 19th among compact cars, pulling down 31,064 sales through April. Last month was the company's strongest, with 8,099 units moving off of dealer lots. Unfortunately, the model has also been handicapped by its older sister, the Avenger. With Chrysler throwing heavy incentives at the aging sedan, many consumers have taken advantage of a better deal with the slightly larger, more powerful Avenger.
Chrysler recalling 700k minivans and Dodge Journey for ignition switch woes
Tue, 01 Jul 2014General Motors isn't the only automaker with ignition switch problems. Chrysler is fighting it too and is now announcing a recall of 695,957 examples worldwide of the Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans from the 2008-2010 model years, plus the 2009-2010 Dodge Journey.
According to a statement from Chrysler, the models have a bad wireless ignition node detent ring in the ignition switch, making it possible for drivers to appear to have the key in the "Run" position but for the spring not to fully engage. It can then slip back to the "Accessory" position and shut the car off. If this happens, the vehicle loses power steering, brake boost and the airbags.
There is some disparity about the number of vehicles affected under this recall. In its statement, Chrysler claims that it covers 525,206 vehicles in the US, 102,892 in Canada, 25,591 in Mexico and 42,268 elsewhere. However, the recall announcement posted by The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration lists an estimated 438,109 vehicles in the US. Chrysler spokesperson Nick Cappa told Autoblog via email that the reasoning for the different figures "will become clear at a later date."
