Up for sale is my 1970 Dodge Charger. This car started out as a 500 model, but is now what I call a resto/mod and cloned as an RT as far as looks go. Changes in life are forcing me to sell this project of 5 years. I guess my loss will be your gain. I will start by telling you what has been done. I was building this car not for show as much as wanting to drive it anywhere I wanted to. Rust , absolutely no rust all new sheet metal throughout. A new floor was installed from the fire wall to the tailpanel, new rear frame rails new fuel cell, new rear springs and shocks. new fuel and brake lines. Frame ties have been installed and new exhaust. New front tie rods and upper and lower ball joints. Car has been converted to 4 wheel disc brakes with new master cylinder and booster. Under the hood is a new ported and polished 383 and rebuilt 727 transmission. I temporally installed a mechanical oil pressure gauge and upon cranking the engine 70 psi was produced. The engine will not start at this time as steering column wiring is not intact."Thats about where I stopped". As you can see in the pics I have all new parts on engine and all polished or chromed. New MSD 6al ignition and pro billit distributer. A new 4core aluminum radiator and 2 electric fans . Even the headlight door motor has been sent out and rebuilt. New 18" Diablo wheels and new Goodyear Eagle GT 235 45r 18 tires. Body is painted sublime green with satin black hood and rear stripe new vinyl roof and all new trim. Front bumper alone cost $1600 to rechrome. Now the paint is not perfect it was painted about 3 years ago and while working on it and storing it has sustained some scratches. I would give the paint job a 8-9 out of 10. Its does need a good buffing which I may do if time allows. Now the interior. In the pics it looks kind of messy but that's where most of the work needs to be done. As you can see I do not have original front seats. I chose a set of electric leather seats from a Chrysler 300 and the rear stock seat was redone to match the front. New carpet and headliner. All new Dakota Digital gauges installed in a custom dash. A new Vintage Air heating unit is installed under the dash. Sorry no AC. New windshield installed and all new door and window gaskets. New door panels and kick panels .I probably missed a lot more cause as I said it is all new and this will be a fine specimen when completely finished and there are very few parts left to buy. The work that needs to be completed are brakes bled and adjusted finish wiring. Purchase windshield wipers adjust linkages, tune engine and front end alignment and enjoy. The nice thing about this car is if a buyer wanted to make any further changes it would be easy to do as everything is new and modern. If you are looking for original then this is not for you, but my idea was to have modern conveniences and safety in a  43 year old  beauty. This car will sell at this auction as I put a reserve on it far below what I have into it. Any questions feel free to call 507-210-6340 or email. GOOD LUCK BIDDING!!!!!.

Dodge celebrates big B-day with 100th Anniversary Editions muscle cars

Wed, 20 Nov 2013

Being in business for 100 years is a HUGE milestone, so we hope Dodge has more in mind to celebrate its centennial than just a special edition package for the 2014 Charger and Challenger. Called the 100th Anniversary Edition package, this collection of cosmetic enhancements will be available in limited quantities for both cars at a cost of $2,500.
Ordering a Charger or Challenger with the 100th Anniversary Edition package means starting with either a V6-powered SXT Plus or V8-powered R/T Plus model. They can each be ordered in many colors, but only the High-Octane Red Pearl Coat above is an anniversary exclusive. Each car also comes with an anniversary-exclusive set of 20-inch, five-spoke wheels with what Dodge calls "Granite Crystal pockets," a texture that's also mirrored on each car's grille.
Of course, there are commemorative badges galore affixed to the exterior of each car, including "Dodge Est. 1914" fender badges and "100" logos on the center caps of each wheel. The styling theme of each car's interior is a bit more interesting, with Dodge designers trying to evoke "the patina and machinist legacy of John and Horace Dodge," the company's founders. To that end, the leather interior can be had in Molten Red or Foundry Black Nappa, and each features a custom cloud overprint that makes the hide look like a working man's dirty dungarees. Designers also used brass-colored accent stitching on the interior's leather trim pieces, and affixed more "Dodge Est. 1914" badges to the front seat backs and floor mats. We do like the flat-bottomed steering wheel, and the Challenger 100th Anniversary Edition gets exclusive white gauges faces and the Charger black. The "100" on each car's speedometer is also highlighted in red.

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles: The next five years

Tue, 06 May 2014

Unless you've been living under a rock for the past 24 hours, you've no doubt read about all of the big future product news coming out of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles today. We had individual brand reports from Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram, Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Maserati and even Ferrari, but in the interest of simplifying and summarizing, we're going to list out the hard facts once more. Of course, with all of this still off in the future, there's still the possibility that a few changes will be made. But as of what we know right now, here's what's coming, and what's going away.

Dodge unveils Special Service Durango for government fleets

Fri, 18 Oct 2013

Straight off its refresh, the Dodge Durango is slipping back into its dress blues and getting back to work. The 2014 Dodge Durango Special Service Vehicle boasts all the refinements and improvements that the refreshed, civilian-spec model received, most notably a 15-percent improvement in fuel economy.
Designed for police and fire departments, and as Chrysler's answer to the Ford Police Interceptor Utility and Chevrolet Tahoe PPV in the growing service SUV market, the Durango boasts a 600-mile range, thanks to the addition of an eight-speed automatic, available on both the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 and 5.7-liter Hemi V8. Equipped with the 360-horsepower Hemi, the Durango SSV can tow up to 7,400 pounds (the V6 is limited to 6,200 pounds).
Police and fire department Durangos get a few special features over the civilian models. The electric systems are ruggedized, with a heavy duty battery and a 220-amp alternator in place, while the engine's water pump and oil cooler are both stronger. The brakes are tougher, and a load-leveling suspension has been fitted, too.
