UP FOR SELL IS THIS SOLID SOUTHERN CALIFORINIA 1972 DODGE ADVENTURER SE TRUCK WITH A VERY STRONG RUNNING 440CI BIG BLOCK AND A 727 TRANSMISSION, HAS AN 489 CASE 8.75 REAR END WITH UNKNOWN GEAR RATIO (GUESSING ABOUT 3.23 RATIO BASED ON HOW NICE THE TRUCK CRUISES ON THE FREEWAY). THE ONLY REASON I AM SELLING IS THAT I AM GETTING AN EVEN OLDER TRUCK THAT IS MORE MY STYLE. THIS TRUCK IS REALLY NICE SHAPE FOR ITS AGE. THE BODY IS VERY SOLID WITH ONLY SURFACE RUST ON THE ROOF AND INSIDE THE BED AND A LITTLE AROUND THE REAR WINDOW. I HAVE FOUND NO AREAS OF RUST THROUGH ON THIS BODY AT ALL. THE TRUCK WILL NEED SOME BODY WORK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT FENDER AND DOOR (I HAVE A STRAIGHT FENDER AND A DOOR FOR IT THAT COMES WITH THE TRUCK IF YOU WANT THEM), BUT I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY SOME AUTO BODY PROFESSIONALS THAT THE FENDER AND DOOR CAN BE SAVED. THE TRIM ON THE TRUCK IS PRETTY GOOD SHAPE, HOWEVER IT IS NOT PERFECT. I DO HAVE SOME NOS TRIM FOR MOST OF THE PIECES THAT ARE DENTED, BUT NOT ALL OF THEM. THE FRONT BUMPER IS NICE, BUT IT WILL NEED TO BE STRAIGHTED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, (IT GOT PULLED OUT A LITTLE BIT). THE CHROME ON THE TRUCK IS NICE BUT IT DOES HAVE SOME PEPPERING IN IT IN SPOTS. THE WHEELS ARE 17" GREG WELD ROD LITES THAT WERE ONLY MADE FOR 2 TO 3 YEARS THAT ARE IN REAL NICE SHAPE. THE TIRES HAVE SOME LIFE LEFT IN THEM, BUT PROBALBLY NEED TO BE REPLACED SOONER THAN LATER. THIS TRUCK ORIGINALLY CAME WITH A 400CI BIG BLOCK THAT HAS BEEN UPGRADED TO A 440 CI MOTOR. IT HAS THE HIGH PERFORMANCE EXAUST MANIFOLDS AND 3" INCH EXAUST THAT FLOWS INTO ONE GLASS PACK MUFFLER THAT SOUNDS MEAN WHEN YOU GET ON IT, BUT NOT TO LOUD WHEN YOU KEEP YOUR FOOT OUT OF IT. WHEN YOU DO CHOSE TO GET HEAVY FOOTED THIS TRUCK GETS UP AND MOVES AND IS A BLAST TO DRIVE IT RIDES REALLY NICE CONSIDEDRING THAT IT IS A 42 YEAR OLD TRUCK. THE TRUCK HAS POWER BREAKS WITH DISC UP FRONT AND POWER STEERING ALSO. THE TRUCK HAS THE AIR CONDITIONER ON THE MOTOR BUT IT IS NOT HOOKED UP AND APPEARS TO ALL BE THERE FOR THE MOST PART. THE HEATER IS NOT HOOKED UP AND I AM NOT SURE WHY. PLEASE LOOK AT THE MANY PICTURES THAT I HAVE ADDED AS THEY CAN SHOW YOU THE CONDITION OF THE TRUCK BETTER THAN I CAN DESCRIBE IN MOST CASES. USE THE ZOOM FEATURE FOR SOME REALLY DETAILED CLOSE UP IMAGES. I AM LISTING THIS TRUCK AUCTION STYLE WITH WHAT I FEEL IS A VERY REASONABLE RESEARVE PRICE THAT IS THE BOTTOM LINE OF WHAT I NEED FOR THE TRUCK, SO PLEASE KEEP THAT IN MIND WHEN BIDDING. I HAVE TAKEN THIS TRUCK ON CLOSE TO A 400 MILE ROUND TRIP AND IT JUST CRUISED RIGHT ALONG WITH NO ISSUES AT ALL. THE TRUCK HAS 2 GAS TANKS AND I AM UNSURE OF THE TOTAL AMOUNT THAT THEY HOLD. I HAVE DONE MY BEST TO DESCRIBE THE TRUCK AS ACCURATLY AS POSSIBLE, BUT SHOULD YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE GIVE ME A CALL AT: 858-405-1094 OR MESSAGE ME HERE ON EBAY AND I WILL ANSWER ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

Dodge Viper to out-Hell the Hellcat with supercharged V10?
Wed, 20 Aug 2014The Viper wouldn't be the Viper if it wasn't the most powerful model under the Chrysler umbrella. But with the arrival of the Hellcat engine in the Dodge Charger and Challenger, the Viper has fallen behind in the bragging rights department: where the new supercharged V8 produces 707 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque, the naturally aspirated V10 offers "only" 640 hp and 600 lb-ft - gargantuan output figures by almost any other standard, but crucially behind on the SRT power scale. Conner Avenue is going to have to do something about that.
Although the Hellcat's engine reportedly won't fit under the Viper's hood, SRT is now rumored to have another trick up its sleeve: supercharge the existing V10. According to the Pentastar performance enthusiasts at allpar.com, Chrysler has already taken delivery of the first such prototype engines so that it can begin the process of fitting it into an upgraded Viper.
The spooled ten-pot is tipped to produce around 800 hp and 650 lb-ft of torque. More than that and the Viper's drivetrain, chassis and bodywork would have to be substantially reworked. Though beefier transmissions are available, fitting them would reportedly set off a domino-game of changes required to handle the added torque. Which may be something Chrysler would be prepared to do for the next-generation model, but in the meantime, 800 hp could prove enough to put the Viper back atop the Mopar performance ladder where it belongs, and give it an edge against the new Corvette Z06 to rekindle sales.
2015 Dodge Challenger crash test results slip from last year's model
Mon, Dec 22 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has released the results of its latest round of crash testing, announcing that the 2015 Dodge Challenger has netted a five-star overall crash rating. Of course, Chrysler won't want us to tell you this, but that NHTSA overall rating is not the whole story here. As The Car Connection so astutely points out, five-star rating aside, the refreshed 2015 Challenger actually performed worse than when it was tested back in 2013. The V6-powered SXT model tested by NHTSA in this latest round of testing was only able to record a four-star rating in its frontal crash test, while it nailed a five-star rating in the side-impact test. The 2013 Challenger managed a five-star rating in the frontal test. Of course, while this rating is a sign of overall good news for Challenger fans, the car, as TCC argues, has yet to be tested by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. It'll be interesting to see if these NHTSA ratings translate to an IIHS Top Safety Pick or Top Safety Pick Plus. Scroll down for the full press release from FCA. All-new 2015 Dodge Challenger Earns Five-Star Overall Safety Rating From U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration 2015 Dodge Challenger coupe earns five stars overall, the highest possible score in NHTSA's safety rating program More than 70 safety and security features, including new for 2015 class-exclusive Forward Collision Warning, adaptive cruise control, Blind-spot Monitoring and Rear Cross Path detection All-new 2015 Dodge Challenger starts at $26,995 (excluding tax, destination and title) December 18, 2014 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - The all-new 2015 Dodge Challenger has earned a five-star overall safety rating from the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Five stars is the highest possible safety rating given by NHTSA. "The new Dodge Challenger coupe further demonstrates our commitment to broaden the proliferation of advanced safety technologies, such as driver-assist features," says Scott Kunselman, Senior Vice President-Vehicle Safety and Regulatory, FCA-North America. In its assessment of the new Challenger, NHTSA notes the availability of Forward Collision Warning (FCW), which features forward-facing sensors programmed to detect the potential for certain types of frontal collisions. If detected, the driver is alerted with visual and audible warnings. The 2015 Dodge Challenger is the only car in its segment with such capability.
Chrysler investing $20M in Toledo plant to support 9-speed auto production
Sun, 28 Apr 2013In 2011, Chrysler announced a $72-million investment in its Toledo Machining Plant to modernize production of the eight- and nine-speed torque-converters for automatic transmissions made there. That upgrade work won't be finished until Q3 of this year, but Chrysler has already announced a further $19.6-million investment to increase production capacity for the nine-speeders.
The extra units will be necessary because the nine-speed transmission they'll be mated to is going into three popular models: it will debut on the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, then go into the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Dart. The company predicted that this year alone it would sell 200,000 units equipped with the nine-speed tranny, and it is spending some $374 million in addition to the investment in Toledo to upgrade production capacity for it.
The work attached to this new investment won't begin until Q3 of 2014, and it will be finished by the end of that year. There's a press release below with all the details.
