for sale at NO RESERVE is a all original factory air conditioned v8 powered 1972 dodge dart swinger with 50234 original miles, This car is a climate controlled garage find which is much nicer than a barn find and it is in immaculate shape with all the original rust free body panels in 100 percent original paint. I purchased this car in Jan of this year through a friend of a friend in North Carolina. the car was purchased 10 years earlier from a climate controlled garage in ny state it has had 8 thousand miles put on it since it was moved to its Carolina home,,,it is hard to believe this car is originally from ny state due to the shape this car is in. I own several older mopar muscle cars and this is by far the cleanest most original old mopar I have ever owned.from looking at the bottom of this car you can see that this car has never seen any salt,it is factory undercoated and it looks as if it was never even in the rain. The car has all it's original driveline original exhaust system shocks etc, it now has new 14 inch radial tires on the factory rims with ply dog dish caps and beauty rings, I was gonna put some cragars on it but figured I would leave the rim selection to the new owner. I have the original hubcaps in perfect shape that were on the car with the old bias ply tires,(tires are gone now) but it still retains the factory bias ply spare that is brand new looking and jack that have never been out of the trunk,,the lug wrench has never been on a lug nut as the black paint is unscratched,The 318 motor runs perfect with no noise at all and the trans shifts as it should perfect also. I just put it on the road and had it inspected and the man who inspected it was amazed at the original shape this car is in under hood has all the factory chalk marks and you can see that nothing has ever been messed with,I replaced the windshield as it was cracked when I got it but the rest of the glass is original tinted glass with no scratches in any of the windows the factory rubbers around the doors and trunk are still soft as are the cat whiskers and there is no air noise when driving this car down the road at speed The original trunk mat is like new as is the paint in the trunk If I did not have 5 other sweet cars I would not even think about selling this car, as I said it is the sweetest original car I have owned. The few things that this car has wrong with it are aprox 4- 5 minor dings from parking lot mishaps which are barely noticeable. the grille is missing a small piece that you cant see unless you lay on the ground and look up at it. the air condition is all there in and out and I am sure if you put a shot of Freon in it it would blow ice cold. All the lights burn the gauges all work except the speedo needle is all the way at 120 but the odometer works fine. this car basically needs nothing to take to cruises or shows and if I were to keep it I would put a set of wheels on it and be done with it. You really need to see this car to believe it it is in amazing shape. The interior has one tiny slice in the top of front seat about 1 in long barely noticeable and it has one very tiny whole in the headliner along with a couple fine cracks in the dash pad. The door panels are like new and I replaced the carpet due to someone had greasy shoes on it and as sweet as the rest of the interior is there was no sense leaving the dirty carpet in the car it has a brand new correct carpet from classic industries I also replaced the vinyl top with a new legendary top due to the old top was starting to crack from the 40 plus years. If you are looking for a dart swinger I honestly feel that you will not find one in nicer original shape than this car here and if this car is not all I claim it is when you come to pick it up I will gladly refund your down payment. Don't miss out on a time capsule as these cars are getting hard to come by in this shape and if you ever been to a car cruise and seen that one car that you cant believe how nice of shape its in..This is that car. I am offering it without reserve at a starting bid that most people have in there paintjob. you need to do nothing but enjoy it fly in and drive it home. any questions please call eastern time 9-9 thanks Joe 7167068714 and I reserve the right to end this vehicle sale at any time as it is for sale locally as well as other venues.I am sure I have forgot some things and I want to be as honest as I can about this car so ask all questions before you bid. it is cruise ready now and I have got so many compliments on this car the few times I have had it out I have my doubts about selling it as I know I will never come across one in this shape again

Dodge performance trio thrashed on Roadkill
Tue, Apr 14 2015Of all the shows that Motor Trend does, Roadkill is probably the last one we'd pick to evaluate the latest performance automobiles. That's not a slight against David Freiburger or Mike Finnegan, who host the show: they're certified gear-heads and the go-to guys when it comes to hot rods, rat rods and anything grungier than it is shiny. But as exemplary as they are of Detroit muscle, the Charger Hellcat, Challenger Hellcat and Viper are also shiny new pieces of metal. Still, since it will now be sponsoring the show, someone at Dodge apparently thought it would be a good idea to hand Freiburger and Finnegan the keys to the company's top performance models. So to ring the best out of them, they solicited help from some of their colleagues at MT, gained access to a closed-down air strip, devised as many ways as they could to destroy the tires, and proceeded to set about doing exactly that. Watch the grin-inducing mayhem unfold in the half-hour clip above. Related Video:
Auto Mergers and Acquisitions: Suicide or salvation?
Tue, Sep 8 2015We 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?
8 things you learn while driving a cop car [w/videos]
Tue, Jan 27 2015Let me start off with the obvious: it is absolutely illegal to impersonate a police officer. And now that that's out of the way, I'd just like to say that driving a cop car is really, really cool. Here's the background to this story: Dodge unveiled its redesigned 2015 Charger Pursuit police cruiser, and kindly allowed Autoblog to test it. That meant fellow senior editor Seyth Miersma and I would spend a week with the cop car, and the goal here was to see just how different the behind-the-wheel experience is, from a civilian's point of view. After all, it's not technically a police car – it isn't affiliated with any city, it doesn't say "police" anywhere on it, and it's been fitted with buzzkill-worthy "NOT IN SERVICE" magnets (easily removed for photos, of course). But that meant nothing. As Seyth and I found out after our week of testing, most people can't tell the difference, and the Charger Pursuit commands all the same reactions as any normal cop car would on the road. Here are a few things we noticed during our time as wannabe cops. 1. You Drive In A Bubble On The Highway Forget for a moment that our cruiser was liveried with Dodge markings instead of those of the highway patrol. Ignore the large "NOT IN SERVICE" signs adhered around the car. Something in the lizard brain of just about every licensed driver tells them to hold back when they see any hint of a cop car, or just the silhouette of a light bar on a marked sedan. Hence, when driving on the highway, and especially when one already has some distance from cars forward and aft, a sort of bubble of fear starts to open up around you. Cars just ahead seem very reluctant to pass one another or change lanes much, while those behind wait to move up on you until there's a full herd movement to do so. The effect isn't perfect – which is probably ascribable to the aforementioned giveaways that I'm not really a cop – but it did occur on several occasions during commutes from the office. 2. You Drive In A Pack In The City My commute home from the Autoblog office normally takes anywhere from 25 to 30 minutes, and it's a straight shot down Woodward Avenue from Detroit's north suburbs into the city, where I live. Traffic usually moves at a steady pace, the Michigan-spec "five-over" speed.
