 I am selling my 1976 Dodge Dart Sport, Spirit of 76 car.  This is a slant six, four speed car, A833 Transmission, with the original Hurst shifter.  This is a rare find, don't let it get away!  I haven't found solid figures on the production numbers, but have found that anywhere from 200 to 1000 of these cars were made.  Regardless, this is a rare car. The engine has a cold start knock and will need fixed or replaced at some point. Anyone knows, replacing the slant six is a one day job and the engines are cheap and plentiful. The rear is an 8 1/4. It is all original, except for the paint on the rear lower quarters, which were fixed temporarily. It will need rear lower patches if  you are going to restore.  This car was factory undercoated.  The trunk and passenger compartments are solid as seen in the pics. The frame and underside is as solid as you will find, heavily undercoated, and with no leaks or if any, very minor leaks to the interior, it is very solid.  Every light and gauge works, except the speedometer.  The ODOMETER does work and has always worked so the mileage is correct.  Even the side markers and reverse lights and interior reverse indicator are operational. The stripes were replicated, but the "spirit of 76" logos are original, but faded. The wipers and washer reservoir are intact and work. The steering wheel has NO cracks.  It has the original AM radio and has not had any panels cut for speakers.   It has new front pads and new rear shoes.  The left rear wheel cylinder is starting to seep. There is minor surface rust in some places, door hinges, under the hood. The dash has two cracks as seen in the pics. It still has the vacuum diagram, the antifreeze and coolant reservoir stickers, and the emission control sticker. The cooling system is clean with green antifreeze and an engine freeze plug heater.  The door weatherstripping is still soft and does not leak when washing the car. The vehicle has dings, scratches and chips, but no real damage, and no evidence whatsoever of major body damage. It does have filler on the left rocker panel, and the rear panel between the tail lights.  It has power steering, manual brakes.  The exhaust is original with the catalytic converter still in place. It has the original carpet in good shape. The front and rear bumpers have no dings or damage.  The grille is undamaged, but one little part at the bottom has a small warpage that is hardly noticable. All of the glass is near perfect with no chips or cracks.  The rims are Vision, Legend series, with BF Goodrich on the rear. It is a great survivor car and has brought a lot of attention when shown.  This is not a lite version, nor does it have the folding rear seat.  I found a company that has the original seat material, so it is available as is the white vinyl for the seats. I will provide the info for the seat material.  The last time I check fuel mileage, I got 23 MPG.  I will drive it to the shipper of your choice in Boise, Nampa, or Caldwell. You will be responsible for shipping, and vehicle is sold as is.  Half of the final bid will be due upon auction end via paypal, and the balance  before vehicle is shipped.  If you have any questions, please ask before bidding.

Mopar maneuvers into SEMA with a multitude of modified models

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

As the aftermarket and performance arm of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Mopar has a duty to extract everything from the company's models that it can, and there's no better place to show all of its work off than the annual SEMA Show.
Dodge really gets in on the act this year with several customs to show off different parts of the brand's performance heritage. Perhaps the most interesting among them is the track-prepped Viper ACR Concept (pictured above). It wears a custom body kit to produce even more downforce, thanks in no small part to a monstrous wing at the back. To shed weight, most of the interior is stripped out, as well. Next up, the Challenger T/A Concept takes inspiration from '70s Trans-Am racing in a livery of Sublime Green and matte black paint. The center scoop in the hood keeps the 6.4-liter V8 fed with cool air, and the special's 20-by-9.5-inch matte black wheels keep it planted in the corners.
Also getting the once-over from Mopar is the Charger R/T. It wears the division's body kit, and under the hood, a cold-air intake keeps the 5.7-liter V8 breathing. The suspension is retooled to hold the road better with a coil-over kit, upgraded sway bars and strut tower braces for the front and rear. The company is also showing off a snazzy blue Charger with a mean look. The final Dodge getting work from Mopar is the Dart R/T Concept with bright, O-So-Orange paint and a matte black hood with a scoop hooked directly to the air intake. The performance-oriented design is finished off with a coil-over suspension and big brake kit, as well.

Watch this Dodge Viper get clawed to death

Tue, 07 Jan 2014

There's a scene in the James Bond movie, Casino Royale, where Daniel Craig's Agent 007 is captured by villain Le Chiffre, played by Mads Mikkelsen. Le Chiffre tortures Bond in a scene that is rather difficult to watch (especially for blokes) and impossible to describe on these digital pages (Google at your own risk). This video is the automotive equivalent of the Casino Royale torture scene.
It shows a Dodge Viper - a late, first-generation GTS judging by the center-exit exhausts - getting assaulted by a giant piece of heavy equipment. The large claw shows no mercy on the V10-powered sports car, rending its muscular curves into pieces and then running it over, just for good measure. It's a painful video to watch (and hear!), made worse because we don't know what the Viper did to deserve such a fate. About a third of the way through the video, the cameraman indicates that the man with the claw is a new operator from Chrysler, and it appears there may be some fire damage, but beyond that, we don't have much to go on.
Scroll down for the video but be warned, it isn't for the faint of heart.

25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango SUVs recalled over brake feel

Mon, 10 Mar 2014

Chrysler has announced that it is recalling over 25,000 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango SUVs from several markets over concerns about brake feel under hard braking. The affected models are from the 2012 and 2013 model years, although the actual dates of production aren't available. 18,700 are in the US, while 825 are in Canada, 530 are in Mexico and a further 5,200 outside of North America.
According to a statement, Chrysler was informed of the issue by a component supplier for the Ready Alert Braking system, which primes the brakes in anticipation of an emergency stop. A component in the system was restricting the flow of brake fluid too much.
As Chrysler is quick to point out, the way the brakes functioned was in compliance with regulations and there are no reported cases of drivers losing braking power. Instead, the issue rests with what Chrysler calls a pedal feel that "was not consistent with customer expectations." So it would seem Chrysler is being proactive and fixing a problem not because there's a legal issue at work, but simply because it doesn't feel the way the manufacturer wants it to. Well done.
