This is the original FIRST YEAR of the renowned 1966 Dodge Charger. It is equipped with the correct size engine a 361 commando. She starts right up NO smoke or noises with low mileage. This car is ready to go. It has an automatic transmission which shifts smoothly throughout the gears. On highway speeds the vehicles rides straight with no significant noise. The battery is good. The power steering hoses and radiator hoses were just replaced. There's no hesitation or misfiring on this engine. Everything works as expected. Plugs wires coil distributor all are functioning with quality parts. I would not hesitate to drive it anywhere you wanted to go. But don't take my word see it for yourself and show your mechanic. we also just flushed the radiator and filled it with fresh clean coolant.
The body is nice and clean. Its an older restoration so it has some door dings which could use some straightening out. The car does NOT have and rust through on the body. The paint is Bright Red Metallic which shines beautiful. The doors open and close properly hood and trunk also open and close properly. It appears that it was a factory red car due to the jambs being red and under the hood and trunk. The interior of the trunk has been sprayed black and still has the bumper jack. The front end of the vehicle has the original grill and hideaway headlights. Both front and rear bumper are solid with no rust holes. They are faded chrome but can easily be re chromed replaced or sprayed so the exterior is monochromatic.
The engine has a chrome dodge air cleaner cover with chrome valve covers. The hoses for the power steering and radiator have been replaced and there are no leaks present as expected. The factory master cylinder is still intact and stops the vehicle with no problems.The brakes stop the car smoothly with no chatter or pulsation. The factory power steering pump is still working with no problems or leaks. The pump does NOT wine or pulse when steering. The car still has the factory styled BRASS radiator. The car did not have A/C and there are no signs of ever having A/C in it. The firewall and under the hood has been sprayed flat black at one point in time.
The interior has its original White vinyl bucket seats in the front and back seating area. The original FULL CENTER CONSOLE is still installed and functions properly with storage in the front and a fold down rear armrest. The rear bucket seats also fold down flat and the door behind the seats opens for a rear seat pass through as equipped from the factory. This would easily accommodate long objects such as beech umbrellas or surfboards. The auxilarey gage package by the gear shift operates properly with the temp gage, oil pressure, and voltage gage. The instrument panel is intact and the tachometer works properly. The carpeting is all intact and is most likely the original factory carpet. It is faded throughout but can be recolored with a lot of different products available.
The NEGATIVES. The trunk lid is in need of a piece of chrome. The rear lens needs to be replaced but the lights are all working. Were missing the exterior weather stripping on both doors needs to be replaced. It is not installed. We need two interior wheel wells NOT THE INNER FENDERS> for both front tires. However you are able to look at the inner fender and theres no globs of bondo or filler.
Some of the above work I could've had done but I need to get rid of some toys.
My loss is your gain.
You can get these parts from year one and are probably an easy install without any body work expeirence.

Chrysler recalling 278,222 trucks and SUVs over bad rear axles
Thu, 14 Feb 2013Chrysler has issued a recall of 278,222 light trucks and sport utility vehicles here in the United States. The reason: bad rear axles. Specifically, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the rear axle pinion nut may lack a necessary adhesive patch, which could cause the nut to loosen. If this happens, the axle can lock up, which could cause all sorts of havoc on the road.
This is an expansion of the rear axle recall announced in October of last year, where 44,300 Ram 1500 and Dodge Dakota models were being called in. At that time, 12 accidents had been reported due to the faulty axle pinion nut.
Affected vehicles include Ram 1500 trucks from the 2009 to 2012 model years, Dodge Dakota models from the 2009 to 2011 model years, and both the Chrysler Aspen and Dodge Durango SUV twins, both from the 2009 model year only.
2013 Dodge Challenger R/T Redline revs into Chicago
Fri, 01 Feb 2013When Dodge released the Challenger Rallye Redline last year, it brought a new dimension of styling to the car's classic muscle car lines, but it was only available in V6 form lacking the oomph to back up its sinister appearance. To remedy that situation, Dodge is unveiling the Challenger R/T Redline, powered by a Hemi V8 engine, at the Chicago Auto Show.
Other than the extra cylinders, most of the R/T's Redline package carries over from the Rallye model including the custom-look 20-inch black chrome wheels with red paint accents, but the R/T version of the package gets more of a retro look to the side stripes with graphite graphics featuring Redline lettering. Cars equipped with the six-speed manual transmission will get a performance-tuned, low-restriction exhaust allowing the engine to produce 375 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque; cars with the five-speed auto are rated at 372 hp and 400 lb-ft, but they do offer a bright chrome Mopar t-handle shifter and steering wheel paddle shifters.
The R/T Redline Group is offered only on cars painted in Billet Silver, Granite Crystal, Bright White and Pitch Black, and it adds just $1,995 to the MSRP of the Challenger R/T (starting at $31,990) and the Challenger R/T Plus (starting at $33,990), which adds features like Nappa leather and Boston Acoustics speakers.
Dodge celebrates big B-day with 100th Anniversary Editions muscle cars
Wed, 20 Nov 2013Being 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.
