For sale I have a 1973 Dodge Challenger. I know you see a lot of these cars for sale on eBay, but you don't see one like this very often. No it's not an extremely rare car or extremely rare options, But it is a car that has not been butchered, hot rodded or changed very much since it was new. This car was purchased by my sister in Arkansas in the early 1980s. The person she bought it from said that they had purchased it brand-new. The car had radiator problems in 1992, so it was parked in the barn where it sat until a few months ago. She wanted to fix it up and restore it, and started working on the mechanics of it. But she's decided to just sell it. The car has a lot of options, was a red car with a white vinyl roof, with white bucket seats automatic on the floor, air-conditioning power disc brakes. The car has several options from the rally package, but it was not an RT.  It has the rally dash with tachometer, it has the road wheels, heavy duty cooling radiator, just a nice clean interesting original car. The car is a 318 automatic two barrel car, I've been told the engine and transmission or original numbers matching, so I believe it to be true. It can be verified for a serious buyer. The car still has original single exhaust that is quiet. It has brand-new 225 – 70–14 white letter tires with 0 miles on them. It has a new battery, new water pump, new distributor, voltage regulator, new alternator, new ignition box, fuel tank, sending unit, fuel grommet. It has an 8 3/4 rear end . The car runs and drives good, transmission shifts as it should, engine starts right up and runs smooth, however could use freshened up.the worst part of this car is the vinyl roof held moisture and rusted the outer roof skin, both front pillars, trunk filler panel, all of which were bought and come with the car. The roof skin will be strapped to roof of car to avoid additional shipping costs. It seems that these cars are either junk for 3k or 20k won't meet the reserve.. Here is your chance to get a decent original challenger with out breaking the bank. The key buzzer, tach, all lights work, even the radio works( not original) I have set a reasonable reserve on this car so bid to win. I will answer all questions to the best of my ability. Please do not ask for more pics if you are not bidding on the car and a serious buyer as that takes time and rarely does the person who asks for ten more pics ever bid on the item let alone win it. I have no problem getting any pics for bidders or serious buyers that have the money to complete a purchase. Please only bid on this if you can complete the purchase. Look at my feedback and bid with confidence! Thanks john

I have had several questions asking about the reserve price on the car. Reserve is reasonable for what the car is. The cost of the new roof skin, trunk extension, and both pillar posts, the tuneup, the battery, tires the fuel tank and accessories, is $2000 without any labor. That is something that needs to be considered, that $2000 has already been spent on parts and making it mechanically sound to run and drive. If you have any questions, please ask and I will try to answer them as quickly as possible.

SRT back to Dodge, Dart SRT, new Challenger, Charger and Caravan's death outlined in 5-yr plan

Tue, 06 May 2014

The onslaught of news from Fiat Chrysler's layout of five-year plans continued with Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis this morning, including the unexpected announcement that SRT was coming back into the fold.
After just a few years existing as an independent entity within the Fiat Chrysler universe, an unceremonious press release hit in conjunction with today's lineup of announcements, saying "the SRT family of vehicles will be consolidated under the Dodge brand." Group CEO Sergio Marchionne thanked SRT headman Ralph Gilles for his dedication to the high-performance wing, calling out is efforts in expanding the vehicle lineup and including more customized models. He did not reference disappointing SRT Viper sales today, but we sense there's a bit of subtext.
With the SRT reunion at Dodge, it's appropriate that some of the most exciting product announcements for the next five years have to do with upcoming performance products. First out of the gate will be a refresh for that flagging Viper in 2015, which comes as little surprise.

Dodge Scat Packages add Mopar performance upgrades in three stages

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

Dodge has revealed what it calls Scat Package Stage Kits that enhance the performance of the Charger and the Challenger equipped with the 5.7-liter V8, and the Dart equipped with the turbocharged 2.4-liter inline four-cylinder engine. The Scat Packs use Mopar performance parts that also can be bought separately. Most of the upgrades increase engine output, but Dodge somehow manages to not specifically mention the power gains associated with each Scat Pack.
The three Scat Packs offered for the V8-powered cars focus on higher power ratings, and each stage comes complete with a unique engine-management calibration to optimize output. Stage one comes with a cold-air intake and a cat-back exhaust; stage two adds a performance camshaft; and stage three really gives you the goods, adding ported polished cylinder heads and performance headers.
For the Dart, the Scat Packs focus on engine, transmission, chassis and brake upgrades. Stage one will net you a cold-air intake, a short-throw shifter and slotted rotors with performance brake pads; stage two adds a cat-back exhaust system and an engine-management calibration to increase output by taking advantage of premium-octane gasoline; and stage three adds 13-inch vented brake discs up front clamped by four-piston calipers, suspension with adjustable springs and struts and performance front and rear antiroll bars.

Dodge not being dropped by Chrysler, CEO reaffirms

Mon, 16 Sep 2013

Dodge isn't going anywhere. Despite some rumor and speculation over the future of the crosshair grille and the cars that wear it, Dodge brand boss, Tim Kuniskis, sat down with TheDetroitBureau.com, explaining that the marque isn't going anywhere. His sentiments echo those of SRT boss Ralph Gilles, who told a group of enthusiasts in July that "Dodge is here to stay!"
Dodge's death won't be "a part of a master plan to consolidate brands," Kuniskis told TheDetroitBureau.com. Instead, the brand, which is ultimately under the command of Fiat/Chrysler CEO, Sergio Marchionne, will likely ditch some of its badge-engineered models, like the Dodge Grand Caravan. A more focused Dodge, which was something Gilles has already hinted at, will likely see it exploring areas of the market that haven't been exploited by other Chrysler brands.
Kuniskis, not surprisingly, wasn't willing to delve into any detailed product plans, telling TDB that the size of the brand's lineup "remains to be seen." Regardless of how big the brand actually ends up being (it is presently Chrysler's volume brand - and not by a little), hopefully the statements from Kuniskiss can put the rumors of a Dodge closure to bed.
