Second owner. Origionaly from the dry climate of El Paso, Tx.. Three small rust areas found during restoration. One in the trunk, one in front of drivers rear wheel and one small spot behind engine in the wiper well. This one was'nt fixed due to it's location. L.A.built so no broadcast sheet. Fender tag as follows: END, N88=tach, R11=am radio, V1W=white vinyl roof, V6W=white longitudal stripes, 26=26"radiator, H51=air cond., J25=3spd wipers, J45=hood pins, M21=drip rail mldgs, N41=duel exhaust, N42=brite exhaust tips, A62=rally inst. cluster, C16=consule w/wood grain, C55=bucket seats, G31=r.h. rear view mirror, G33=L.h.remote rear view mirror, EB5=brite blue metallic, H5B5=blue vinyl seats w/cloth inserts, 000=full door panels, CO8=dec.8, 053591, E63=383-4bbl w/air, D32=A727 auto, JS23NOE124381. Also has power steering. I the second owner added the luggage rack, flip top gas cap, super stock leaf springs, electronic ignition and 15x7 front, 15x8 rear magnum wheels with BF Goodrich radial T/A's. The best thing I added was the aliminium radiator. The temp guage never exceeds the bottom of the normal range even with the a.c. running. The origional radiator is long gone. The glass is all good, front windshield and rear window were replaced and the side windows are origional. The lites all work. The gas tank was replaced along with the fuel pump and carb.. The engine has what I believe to be hardened valve seats but I add octane booster just incase. I never did much to the engine because it has good compression and does'nt smoke. But the origional owners replaced the four barrel intake, carb and air cleaner with a two barrel to conserve fuel. The origional parts are long gone. The exhaust is origional with the resinators. The trans was rebuilt with a new tourque converter and shift kit. The shifter is the "slap stick". As most Mopars, the motor, trans and power steering do leak a little. New u-joints and diff. fluid was changed. The grill is origional and in great shape. Still has complete origional jack. The air works great but you must pop the hood the change the temp setting at the mixing valve. The dash cable is too weak to do it. Still has origional front end rubber bushings but I did replace the shocks and brakes. Emergancy brake does'nt work due to rusty cables.This is a nice car that gets alot of attention but it is 43 years old and I do suggest as with any car you make a trip to see it before you commit to buy it. I've made this discription as thorough as possible so there's no suprises. The origional owners bought it off the show room floor and I have owned it since '99. I have the origional title from the El Paso dealer to the first owner. Never smoked in since the resto. but the ash tray shows use. After working the car over I do believe the milage to be correct. SORRY NO TRADES. All questions will be answered to the best of my knowlage. 719-205-5001

Dodge engineers trying to shoehorn Pentastar into Dart?
Tue, 19 Nov 2013The fact that the Dart's launch has been a pretty dismal affair isn't what we'd call secret. Judging by its mounting inventories and poor critical reception, Dodge's successor to its unloved Caliber has struggled since it hit the market. And while both of those are difficult problems to address, at least their cause is well known - the powertrain.
Even Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne has acknowledged that the powertrain options in the Dart are substandard, admitting at January's Detroit Auto Show that the powertrains are "less than ideal." Leading with the 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder found in the Fiat 500 Abarth left a bad taste in the mouths of consumers thanks to the laggy engine and dead throttle response (to say nothing of the manual and dual-clutch gearboxes that needed more refinement). The addition of the 184-horsepower 2.4-liter Tigershark in the Dart GT has helped matters some, but apparently Auburn Hills doesn't think it's quite enough.
If rumors are to be believed - get that salt ready - a possible solution may be in the works. A report from Allpar is claiming that Dodge is considering fitting a Pentastar V6 into the Dart's engine bay. As the Mopar-obsessed website points out, the critically acclaimed Pentastar is available in three different sizes - 3.0 liters, 3.2 liters and the original 3.6 liters. We don't get the 3.0 here in the US, but the 3.2 can be found in the new Jeep Cherokee and the 3.6 has been seemingly fitted to every model Chrysler can shoehorn it into.
Roadkill builds crazy-cheap 1968 Dodge Charger rat rod using an old motorhome
Tue, 24 Dec 2013Certain requests for description simply cannot be fulfilled, like if someone asked you to describe Picasso's Guernica or Gilliam's Brazil. There is only one appropriate answer to such entreaties, and that is: "You just gotta see it." That's where we are with the latest episode of Roadkill, wherein Messr's Freiburger and Finnegan dig out a 1968 Dodge Charger that Freiburger acquired in exchange for a set of cylinder heads, and intend to stuff it with the big-block motor from a long-bed, three-quarter ton Dodge pickup.
Only the pickup is too nice to tear apart, and the Charger needs a whole lot more lovin' - and parts - than initially expected. Enter, stage right, the Class A Dodge Pace Arrow motorhome with a 440 big-block purchased for $1,000, and a retired Plymouth Fury from a previous episode.
What ensues over the course of the 40-minute installment is more cuttin', yankin', leakin', stallin', hammerin' and smokin' action than you've seen in a long time, and some techniques that would have made even Cooter wonder, "I'm not sure if we should do that." By the end, though, the payoff is good enough to make you think about perusing AutoTrader for a '68 Charger just to see if maybe...
How fracking is causing Chrysler minivans to sit on Detroit's riverfront
Fri, 25 Apr 2014It's fascinating the way that one change to a complex system can have all sorts of unintended consequences. For instance, there are hundreds of new Chrysler Town and County and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans built in Windsor, Ontario, sitting in lots on the Detroit waterfront because of the energy boom in the Bakken oil field in the northern US and parts of Canada.
The huge amount of crude oil coming from these sites mostly use freight trains for transport, and that supply boom has resulted in a shortage of railcars to carry other goods. According to The Windsor Star, North American crude oil transport by train has gone from 9,500 carloads in 2008 to 434,032 carloads in 2013. Making matters worse, some North American rail infrastructure is still damaged because of this year's harsh winter, and that's slowing things down even further.
Chrysler admits to The Star that it has had some delivery delays due to the freight train shortage. In the meantime, it's using more trucks to deliver its vehicles. Trucking is a far less economical solution, partially because a train can carry so many more units at one time, but alternatives are slim. The Windsor plant alone has a deal for 33 trucks to distribute the minivans around Canada and the Midwestern US.
