Up for sale is a 1974 Dodge Dart Sport custom. It has the more desirable "71 front end of a Demon and a Demon interior. I has been in the Hot Rod Power Tour and has a strong engine that does not smoke at all, Offenhauser intake, Edlebrock carb, small cam around 268 and 15/8 headers. Scoop looks original. It has a rebuilt trans with a new torque converter. I spent several years having all the wiring restored so that all the factory gauges work, lights, signals, etc. IT HAS A WORKING AND CORRECT GAS GAUGE! Don't see that often. Passes inspection no problem. Replumbed exhaust and new mufflers.  I recently replaced the steering column to a floor shift model and put the original steering wheel back in. The shifter is a ratchet Hurst model. This is a non a/c car and the heater core is bypassed. The paint buffs out to a shine but there are scratches and blemishes. An extensive and expensive and documented rebuilding of the front end was done several years ago. I have extensive parts receipts and all repair receipts since I have owned the car and can be provided to look at. The 1974 Texas plates do not go with the car. The drivers seat shows upholstery wear along with the bottom of the drivers door panel. I will try to put it on the lift and upload some pictures of underneath this weekend. Please send pic requests. I will tweak the ad more this weekend as well.

Included with the car is;

The ACC carpet kit black in color that is for this car. Never opened.  
A set of four POWDERCOATED Dodge wheels never installed with center caps
A replacement metal dash. I was going to restore the radio to a two knob as original and it was easier for me than re-welding the din radio cutout.
Dodge Mopar valve covers which will most likely be installed this weekend.
Better examples of the gauge cluster trim and glove box I planned to install with the new dash. 
Flywheel inspection plate
Tach and Sunpro gauges removed when I bought the car
Wiper seal rebuild kit
New dashpad cover
Extra 1972 Dodge Y steering wheel and rally race steering wheel it came with when I bought the car.

This car has had extensive mechanical and electrical repairs to make ready for paint which was my next step. I recently ended up with two more project cars one of which my daughter wants to put together daddy daughter style. This car would not be finished for two to three more years and I do not want it to sit that long. I would not say it is a project because most of it has already been done. It is always a head turner and popular in all of the show and shines. Please contact me through Ebay for more questions or phone contact for those that have more in depth questions. I would like to answer any and all questions so not to waste either of our time. No trades. Cash only. Car up for sale locally and reserve right to terminate auction. Do not need help selling vehicle and no solicitation of other offers. Pick up locally.

Before Jay Leno, this 1970 Dodge Charger was a SEMA star

Tue, Feb 23 2016

When Jay Leno drives an awesome car, enthusiasts take note, and this week the internet blew up over the 1970 Dodge Charger resto-mod that starred in a recent Garage episode. But you might not remember: this strapping Charger, called "Tantrum," was one of the highlights of the SEMA Show in Las Vegas last fall. Here's another look at a true Mopar monster. The power: Yep, Tantrum has 1,650 horsepower. That's more than two Hellcats worth of power under the hood. It's a twin-turbo 9.0-liter Mercury Racing engine with a quad-cam four-valve setup. Basically, it's a V8 boat motor developed for cars. Mercury Marine is the crew that developed the V8 for the 1990s Chevy Corvette ZR-1. That all-aluminum LT-5 under the hood cranked out 405 hp – an astronomical figure for the time – and helped make the ZR-1 an icon. Take a listen to Tantrum's 9.0-liter Mercury mill below.

Before it threw a Tantrum, it did the "Cudinator" used in some of the Fast and the Furious movies. You might not know: Tantrum won the Best Domestic category of the GT Awards at SEMA – chosen by your author. The sinister looks were the hook, and the crazy engine solidified its performance cred.

Chrysler killing off the 200 Convertible, Dodge Avenger

Sun, 23 Feb 2014

When Chrysler rolled out the first-generation 200 to replace the Sebring range in 2010, it included replacements for both the sedan and the convertible. The Sebring Coupe, however, was left out of the mix. And now that the second-generation Chrysler 200 is descending upon us, Auburn Hills is paring things down even further. But this time, it's the convertible that reportedly isn't making the cut. Shame, too, since the rendering above shows what could have been quite an attractive droptop.
As our compatriots at Edmunds point out, sales of the convertible model accounted for less than five percent of overall Chrysler 200 sales, and at those numbers, the considerable cost of engineering a new drop-top couldn't be justified. With the Toyota Camry Solara and Volkswagen Eos also gone from the market (well, the VW isn't gone quite yet), the discontinuation of the Chrysler 200 Convertible leaves the affordable convertible segment largely to the sportier likes of the Ford Mustang and Chevy Camaro and smaller European offerings like the Mini Cooper and VW Beetle.
The Chrysler 200 Convertible isn't the only derivative being left behind with the new model: so too is the Dodge Avenger. That will leave a glaring hole in the Dodge lineup, with nothing to bridge the gap between the compact Dart and the larger Charger. Whether the Dodge brand has any plans to replace the Avenger with another model, not to be based on the 200, remains to be seen.

All-wheel-drive Dodge Challenger GT confirmed by EPA website

Thu, Oct 27 2016

The US Environmental Protection Agency accidentally confirmed the upcoming Dodge Challenger GT by posting fuel economy figures for the all-wheel-drive variant of the muscle car. According to FuelEconomy.gov, the Challenger GT, which will come with the 3.6-liter V6 when it's released, is rated to get 18 miles per gallon in the city and 27 miles per gallon on the highway, giving the vehicle a combined rating of 21 miles per gallon. Those figures are slightly lower than the rear-wheel-drive Challenger with the same engine, which gets 19 miles per gallon in the city and 30 miles per gallon on the highway. While previous reports indicated that Dodge is planning to release the all-wheel-drive Challenger GT sometime in 2017, the automaker hasn't confirmed the vehicle. (Mopar's all-wheel-drive concept from last year's SEMA Show is pictured above.) With the EPA putting out the car's official fuel economy figures, the all-wheel-drive muscle car is definitely coming, and should be here before the entire Challenger lineup gets its expected redesign in 2018. And yes, we're still hopeful that the so-called Challenger ADR we saw in spy photos means we'll see all wheel drive and Hellcat power. Because Hellcat everything. Related Video:
