NO TRADES OF ANY KIND- CLEAR TITLE IN HAND- CAR IS 45 MILES SOUTH OF CHICAGO IN SCHERERVILLE INDIANA- POSSIBLE DELIVERY TO NATS AUGUST 9TH-------1974 Dodge Charger SE Brougham. All numbers matching 318 automatic car from Montana-factory AC car-- extremely solid vehicle- Frosty Green with green interior (not the ugly pea green, but the emerald green interior) . All body panels are original, there was one small patch done on the passenger lower quarter where a road map fell down the well and created moisture, but that was it, this car is really straight. The car has a lot of neat documentation from 1974 and on. Fender tag but no build sheet. The car has had a recent driver quality paint job, which looks great and full of metallic when the sun hits it. The car can still use a final wet sand. The car has a brand new Boar Grain vinyl top. All of the stainless trim was professionally polished by Pro One Polishing in Indiana, including the rockers (this was a cost of $970 alone). The car has brand new rechromed OEM bumpers from Stephen's Performance ($950), brand new chrome reveal mouldings front and back ($500), brand new marker lights, all new bulbs, (missing one turn signal lens under front valance)- Brand new BF Goodrich tires with maybe 8 miles on them, wrapped onto brand new chrome Magnum 500 wheels, new chrome lug nuts, new center caps ($1750). The rear drums were painted with the correct red from Roger Gibson, the car has a brand new fuel tank, new sending unit, new fuel pump, new fuel filter, brand new battery, complete tune up, oil, plugs, wires, cap, rotor, air filter, oil filter, BRAND NEW carburetor (still have original in a box), brand new roof rail weather strip, new door weather strip, new cat whiskers, NEW OEM mint dash pad with zero cracks ($680 after dying) - brand new windshield, the bottom of the car is completely undercoated nice and black, the floor pans and frame rails are EXCELLENT, the trunk pan is EXCELLENT. new gas cap, new rear shocks, brakes are good but needing changing since they are just starting to squeak, the factory AC blows ICE FREAKIN COLD.. I had to shut it off it was so cold the other day- every light works, blinkers, etc, the radio just stopped working, there is a brand new speaker in the dash but I have not had time to mess with the radio. WHAT THE CAR NEEDS: Needs a new front seat cover (Legendary still has the NOS green psychedelic cloth IN STOCK) it is just faded and has a tear- the car needs new carpet, its just faded and old, but looks fine, the car needs new plastic seat backs- the head liner appears pretty mint, its just faded and has some staining, you can definitely live with it, it looks good. Oh, and the car could use an extra 200HP.. if you want to go fast in this car, it aint happening unless you drop it out of a airplane. This is the perfect candidate for someone with a good motor and no car to put it in. With the few interior upgrades this car would be awesome. This car looks great, it is not a show car, it needs some attention. The paint is driver quality, I have $3700 in the paint job, for what it is, its awesome, there are tiny flaws here and there if you start eyeballing the sh*t out of it, but overall everyone loves it and says it looks fine- the paint comes alive in the sun, super bright! (see the pic in the sunlight) . I am NOT ACCEPTING OFFERS, I am not hurting for money, I have several high end E-Body's (my AAR will be competing at the Nats in the Finer Details tent) I bought this car just to drive around since it was so solid. Rides like dream, if your dream is just to cruise around and have fun. Speedo cable needs replacing too. If I think of other stuff I will add later. Paypal deposit of $300 required, CASH, bank check, wire, ONLY- no personal checks. Delivery to Nats will cost $250 extra- if you are paying cash there I will deliver for free. The firewall is super clean, all of the components on it seem original and in great shape (like the cad plating on wiper motor and booster) MT cars are usually rust free and clean like this due to no salt.

Dodge lets us drive 100-years' worth of history [w/videos]
Thu, 03 Jul 2014
A raft of important production models from the last hundred years were available for me to either drive or ride in.
Dodge is 100 years old this year. So, as happened on Ford's recent centennial, the 50-year birthday of the Porsche 911, and others, the company has an excuse to trot out the highlights of its history next to its upcoming model lineup, and declare that "these are the fruits of the Dodge Boys' tree whose roots have grown strong." Or something like that. Never so hampered by marketing skepticism that I'll pass up the opportunity to burn someone else's rubber, I was happy to drive out to Meadow Brook Hall in Rochester Hills, MI - former grand estate of the Dodge family - to hear the spiel.
Dodge celebrates centennial with Charger and Challenger 100th Anniversary Editions
Tue, 19 Nov 2013In 1914, the Dodge brothers went from being a parts supplier to a full-scale automaker, and to celebrate the centennial of this milestone, Dodge will offer special editions of the 2014 Charger and Challenger early next year. Both cars will be sold in limited numbers (although no specific number was given), and these cars will stand out thanks to unique touches like 20-inch wheels, 100th anniversary edition logos and the exclusive High Octane Red Pearl Coat paint job (shown above).
The 100th Anniversary Edition package, which runs $2,200 on the 2014 Charger and $2,500 on the 2014 Challenger, comes with red or black leather seats with a cloud print (for a denim-like look) and metal badges on the seatbacks that read "Dodge Est. 1914," while similar logos are also found on the wheel center caps and front fenders. The instrument gauges are unique to each car, with the Charger getting black gauges and the Challenger getting white gauges, and to enunciate the 100-year anniversary, both cars have red numerals on the speedometer for the 100-mile-per-hour mark.
Finishing off the 100th Anniversary Edition cars, which will be offered on V6 and R/T models, Dodge adds a flat-bottom steering wheel and embroidered floor mats as a part of the package. Scroll down for the full press release for these commemorative models.
Dodge Dart falls short of Consumer Reports Recommended, Caddy XTS and Lincoln MKS, too
Thu, 22 Nov 2012The Dodge Dart, Cadillac XTS and Lincoln MKS all failed to earn a "Recommended" rating from Consumer Reports. When it came to the compact Dart, the organization's testers thought the vehicle offered a quiet cabin, solid-feeling chassis and nimble suspension, but the new model ultimately fell short of the coveted rating due to powertrain issues. The institute's reviewers found the base 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine to be underpowered and noted "drivability issues" when the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four was paired with the optional dual-clutch transmission (some of our editors disliked it paired with the six-speed manual). CR also dinged the latter powerplant for sounding "raspy." For what it's worth, we think the forced-induction engine offers an excellent and playful exhaust note, but that's just us.
As for the XTS, CR lauded the car for its luxurious cabin, but the vehicle's experience was dulled by its finicky CUE infotainment interface. Overall, the big Cadillac scored much higher than its cross-town rival from Lincoln. While testers found the American luxury sedan to offer a quiet ride and quality fit and finish, they felt the MKS delivered a "cramped driving position, ungainly handling, uncomposed ride, and limited visibility." Ouch. At the end of the day, both cars fell short of rivals from Japan, Germany and Korea. Check out the full press release below with more details, along with CR's musings on the Chevrolet Spark and Lexus ES.
