1974 Dodge Dart Sport driven daily. This car has the 225 CID Slant-6 with rare and desirable 2bbl Super-Six setup with a manual choke that works well. It runs strong and smooth, 904 automatic transmission works well, shifts smoothly, no problems. The car has power steering with manual 10" drum brakes all the way around, and they stop the car fine. I have a JVC AM/FM/CD with audio input jack stereo mounted below the dash, the original radio is still in the dash. The heater and defrosters work fine. The 2 speed wipers work like they should as well.

Interior is reasonably nice, upholstery is good, carpet is new, door panels in average condition, headliner fabric was coming off so I removed the fabric, but the original fiberboard headliner backing is still in place. All gauges work as they should. All the lights (including the instrument lights) work fine. The dash is in good shape, the dash pad is in good shape too.

The body is probably average or better for its age - perhaps because it has been in California its whole life. There is however one small area of rust on the extreme bottom of the passenger side quarter panel behind the tire (see photo). As you can see in the pictures the car has small dings etc, and the paint (which is original) has faded away in some places to reveal metal. The floor pans, trunk floor, and frame rails are solid.

Since this is a '74 model NO SMOG is required in CA. I have a clean title in my name. Car is currently registered and insured. I bought the car from the original owner some years ago.

The following parts are new over the last year or so: passenger side mirror, master cylinder, battery, heater core, temperature sending unit, door window seals, fuel sending unit, fuel pump and hoses, carpet, and both fan and power steering belts.

Car is daily driven, but I would recommend an alignment and new tires before too long, The tires do have great tread, but are probably fairly old. They are size P195/75R14 all season tires with original hub caps.

This would make an awesome project for someone to make a V-8 muscle car out of, or continue to enjoy it as it is - it is up to you.

Please ask me any questions you may have and I will do my best to accurately answer them. Though I have done my best to be complete and accurate in my description, the car is 40 years old and is being sold as is.

Car is for sale locally also. I reserve the right to end the auction. Buyer is 100% responsible for pick-up, transportation, etc., of the vehicle., although I will work with your shipper if you are out of my area. Nonrefundable deposit of $500 via PayPal due within 24 hours of auction close. Balance may be paid via cash, certified check, or PayPal.

Viper owners raising money to retake the Nurburgring lap record

Thu, Jan 19 2017

Nurburgring lap times – unofficial as they may be Â– are the locker room comparison contest of the automotive world. For several years, the lap record of 7:12:13 was held by a 2011 Dodge Viper ACR. The Viper and America were the rulers of the roost until the usurper, the Porsche 918, came in a stole the crown. The death knell is ringing for the Viper, and a group of owners are raising money to send the car to the 'Ring for one last chance at glory. The current Dodge Viper ACR is an astonishingly capable car. All of the flaws that make it miserable to live with everyday - stiff suspension, obnoxious exhaust, speed-bump-gouging splitter - make it one of the most formidable road-legal track machines ever created. Unfortunately, that single-purpose nature turned off a lot of customers, and slow sales have led to the end of Viper production. The Viper holds lap records on more than a dozen of tracks, but, like a driver winning the Indianapolis 500, only one belt notch truly matters. The ViperExchange is willing to supply two ACRs and two drivers well versed in the Nurburgring in order to retake the record. The problem with attempting to set the record is mostly down to logistics. According to the GoFundMe page, the total cost to send the cars, pay for the track, the supplies, and operating expenses is about $150,000 and $200,000. The group says this is entirely a volunteer effort and are asking for donations to fund the Viper's return. Those wishing to help replant the stars and stripes and fill the forests of Germany with the truck-like roar of an odd-firing V10 can donate online. If they fall short, donations will be returned.

NHTSA investigates FCA for SUVs that roll out of Park

Tue, Aug 25 2015

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening a preliminary evaluation into the 2014 Dodge Durango and 2014-205 Jeep Grand Cherokee after 14 complaints of the SUVs rolling out of Park. An estimated 408,000 of them could be affected, if a recall is necessary. All of the current complaints submitted to NHTSA about the issue concern the Grand Cherokee, and the claims allege that the SUV can roll out of Park whether or not the engine is running. Some folks report that they check the indicator each time because the gear sometimes fails to engage. Among the 14 cases, there are five accounts of crashes and three injuries, including a situation with someone allegedly being rolled over. NHTSA's preliminary evaluations are meant to investigate "the scope, frequency, and safety-related consequence" of a reported problem. They don't necessarily lead to a recall. Related Video: INVESTIGATION Subject : Unattended vehicle rollaway Date Investigation Opened: AUG 20, 2015 Date Investigation Closed: Open NHTSA Action Number: PE15030 Component(s): POWER TRAIN All Products Associated with this Investigation Vehicle Make Model Model Year(s) DODGE DURANGO 2014 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 2014-2015 Details Manufacturer: Chrysler (FCA US LLC) SUMMARY: The Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 14 complaints (VOQs) alleging that after being placed in Park the subject vehicles have then rolled away from their parked position. The unintended motion has occurred with both the engine off and the engine running. ODI has also identified EWR field report data related to the alleged defect. The model year 2014 and 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles are equipped with an electronic gear selector (shift-by-wire system). The gear selection is made by pressing the shifter-paddle forward or backwards; the shifter does not move along a gate path as with conventional gear selectors. A Preliminary Evaluation has been opened to asses the scope, frequency, and safety-related consequence of the alleged defect. The VOQs associated with the opening of this investigation are: 10733158, 10730952, 10683556, 10679497, 10583366, 10725429, 10715401, 10711893, 10676998, 10668651, 10662619, 10662308, 10605865, and 10567538.
