1969 Dodge Dart Gts 340 4 Speed Bucket Seat Console Factory Tach Hurst Shifter on 2040-cars
Rio Rancho, New Mexico, United States
|
This is the same model car that was only rated (most say underrated insurance companies corrected it to 325 hp) at 275 horse but could run with or outrun the 350HP 350 corvette and run with the 383 Dart GTS in a straight line and outperform the 383 gts in corners! Here is a link providing more info about how incredible these cars really are http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrysler_LA_engine I have included pictures of everything I have for the car, so if there is a part that's not pictured Its likely I don't have it! That being said I believe the car is very complete. If there are any items you are concerned about, please call me or email me through ebay and I can help determine if there is something missing! This car is 99.99% rust free 1969 dart 340 gts 4 SPEED CAR with bucket seats console and factory tachometer. This is a very solid NEW MEXICO car . I purchased it from the second owner a month ago but due to financial reasons I cannot build it at this time. This car is very straight rust free and about the most solid old mopar I have seen in a long time. Body is straight (has had minor bodywork in 2 places small scrapes on drivers rear quarter maybe one size of silver dollar and the other even smaller. These have already been repaired. it has all the original sheet metal and has never showed any signs of rust. Frame rails, quarters fenders doors,truck pan and floor pans original solid and rust free. car has a tiny ding (about 1 cm dimple) by top body line just above and to left of gas filler hole, I showed it in the pictures. It also has a bend lower radiator support, looks like someone may have tried to tow it from radiator support or something, it may be able to be straightened but it will need a repair. Its a very easy repair to make, even for a novice!This car is very close to 100% complete, it needs some final sanding and then paint and re-assembly. THE 340 IN THE PICTURES IS NOT INCLUDE IN AUCTION BUT WILL BE AVAILABLE TO WINNER FOR $2900. IT IS COMPLETELY REBUILT PROFESSIONAL WITH MILD PORT WORK ON HEADS A 268 CAM AND EDELBROCK INTAKE (edelbrock name ground off intake painted orange for stock appearance). I have decoded all the options and they are listed below, this car has many desirable options!!! I HAVE MORE PICTURES OF CAR AND PARTS HERE http://s817.photobucket.com/user/ddodgeman03/library/dodge%20dart%20gts The parts that are on newspaper in pictures have already been refinished/painted and are ready for installation. I realize lighting in pictures was off on some, however if you need i can send more pictures so you can see how straight car really is. These cars bring over $30,000 or more easily when completed. I have had estimates of $1400 to $2200 for paint and final sanding etc to complete body. It has new interior still in box including seat foam that needs replacing and headliner. From what I can tell car is very complete and many parts have already been painted and reconditioned. It will need some Misc parts like vinyl top headlights and battery etc. I estimated car could be completed for about $3000-$4500 depending on who did paint and interior/vinyl top and how much work a the new owner wanted to tackle himself (this would be assuming winner bought engine available for $2900 to winning bidder). You could build this car enjoy then sell for a huge profit! As most people know its hard to get your money back out of most projects, but this car is so solid and complete it wont be a long costly painful restoration. I SEE SO MANY RUSTED OUT JUNK CARS SOLD TO PEOPLE LOOKING FOR PROJECTS. I WONDER IF THESE GUYS REALIZE HOW MUCH IT COSTS TO GET A RUSTED OUT JUNKER INTO THE KIND OF CONDITION THIS CAR IS IN? YOU COULD BUY A CHEAPER CAR THAT NEEDS TONS OF RUST REPAIR/BODY WORK AND PARTS, BUT IN THE END YOU WOULD SPEND WAY LESS TIME AND MONEY TO BUY A SOLID 99% COMPLETE PROJECT LIKE THIS. IT JUST MAKES SENSE! This car has a factory tach that mounts on the console. Tack is in very nice condition and has been checked out and verified to work by a local company that works on auto gauges. THESE TACHS ALONE CAN BRING $1100 ON EBAY!!! Tach is included with auction along with everything else shown in pictures EXCEPT THE ENGINE!!! If you are looking for a great muscle car to restore this is an easy project. Car was stored in dry storage in New Mexico for better part of 2 decades and it shows. The only rust is slight surface rust on a few surfaces, just hit quickly with sandpaper ans its gone! I invite you to inspect car and parts in person. Just call me at 505-203-3447 and we can arrange that! Don't spend tons of time and money scouring swap meets and the net for parts then tons more time doing lots of rust repair to frame and body, with this car you wont need to!!! This is a no reserve auction so bid to win, and remember REBUILT 340 ENGINE IS NOT INCLUDED IN AUCTION BUT WILL BE AVAILABLE TO WINNING BIDDER FOR AN ADDITIONAL $2900, WHICH JUST COVERS COST OF REBUILD AFTER CORE WAS PURCHASED! If you need car delivered that can be arranged but call me to make arrangements before you bid! I have a flatbed and can deliver for a reasonable price!

Does the future of Fiat-Chrysler include Dodge?
Thu, 13 Jun 2013Wards Auto reports the future of Dodge is looking uncertain. Fiat has more or less laid out it's game plan for the next few years, and while the Chrysler, Fiat and Jeep lines are set to receive plenty of love, Dodge isn't so lucky. Fiat has already hobbled Dodge significantly by splitting off the brand's trucks into a separate Ram line.
Wards says that after the Avenger rides off into the sunset early next year, Fiat-Chrysler won't replace the model, leaving a gaping midsize hole in the Dodge lineup. The report also cites unnamed sources as saying that at least two other current Dodge products will move to the Chrysler line.
One of those could very well be the Grand Caravan. Chrysler has already made it clear that it plans to trim redundancy between its minivan offerings, but it has yet to clarify which other vehicle could sail under the Chrysler banner moving forward. Either way, such changes to the product line would theoretically leave Dodge with just four models.
Dodge idles Viper production again at Conner Avenue
Mon, 07 Jul 2014You've got to hand it to Dodge for having the gumption to put the original Viper into production in the first place. It was, after all, much more of an emotional decision than a practical one, and a move which saw the first production V10 engine placed in a road car - long before the advent of the Lamborghini Gallardo, Audi R8, Porsche Carrera GT or Lexus LFA, not to mention the other Ford, BMW and Volkswagen Group models that used such engines.
It's now been 22 years since the first Viper entered production and the Viper still rolls on several generations later, but we're sad to say that courageous decision has not always been met with overwhelming sales success. In fact parent Chrysler was forced to idle the Conner Avenue plant where the Viper is made back in April due to slow sales. And while production resumed again as planned on June 23, it apparently didn't do the trick.
As a result, Chrysler corporate communications chief Shawn Morgan revealed to Autoblog that the assembly line has been shut down again for another two weeks. The line was up and running for nearly two full work weeks from June 23 until the holiday weekend that started on Thursday, July 3. But instead of coming back online today as planned, it's been idled again for the weeks of July 7 and 14. That means it will be July 21, at the earliest, before the serpentine supercars start slithering down the assembly line at Conner Avenue again. Once it does, however, production is set to resume at the same pace it was before the shutdown.
NHTSA investigating Chrysler for airbags, ignition switches
Wed, 18 Jun 2014Chrysler is being targeted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in a pair of actions that focus on over 1.2 million Jeeps, minivans and crossovers.
The first is a "preliminary investigation" that focuses on an airbag issue afflicting the Jeep Commander built in model years 2006 and 2007 and Grand Cherokee from 2005 to 2006. In total, 700,000 vehicles could potentially be affected. It's not entirely clear what the airbag issue is, with The Detroit Free Press simply stating that the restraint systems in the affected Jeeps may be "faulty."
The other investigation is what's called a "recall query" and it covers a problem that General Motors should be familiar with. In this case, there could be a problem with the ignition switches of 525,000 vehicles, ranging from 2008 to 2010 Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans, to the 2008 to 2010 Dodge Journey crossover. Again, it's not entirely clear what sort of behavior prompted the 32 complaints that NHTSA has received on these vehicles.
