Santa Ana, California, United States
|
1969 Dodge Dart Swinger 340 for sale. It is an original 340 car. I have an original broadcast sheet for the car. The car currently has a 360 roller cam motor with approx. 500 miles on it. The original 340 will go with the car. The car has the matching number 727 auto transmission and 323 Sure Grip in the car. The car is a magazine cover car from 2008. The car was fully restored except the paint and the seats. The paint is R4 red and was nice enough to color sand and buff. The engine compartment and trunk were painted and are perfect. All the chrome and stainless were redone or polished. It appears that the seats are the original. They are very nice. They were nice enough that they were not replaced. The steel wheels are power coated to match the car. The car has red line tires with less than 10,000 miles. I looked for a nice A Body for about 18 months. I actually flew to North Carolina, Colorado, Oregon and Arizona to look at other cars before buying this one. I found it was difficult to find a nice car that had no rust damage and was not modified where it could not be easily corrected. This car is completely original looking with no rust repair and no holes drilled anywhere.

2013 Dodge Dart GT
Mon, 16 Dec 2013My younger brother bought a Dodge Dart earlier this summer. It's a basic SXT, in Maximum Steel Metallic, with the 2.0-liter engine, a six-speed automatic transmission and not a whole lot else. Unfortunately, at the time, the Dart was one of the few cars in the compact class I'd never driven. I didn't know a lot about it, and therefore, didn't have a lot to say when he bought it. I think the words "based on an Alfa," popped out when I first saw it.
As it turns out, he's grown quite fond of the dark gray sedan, so it was with some degree of enthusiasm that I paid him a visit in this bright-orange Dart GT. I was excited to see what it was about the Dart that he enjoyed so much, despite my tester featuring a different engine, transmission and a lot more tech. After a week with the car, though, I must say: I don't quite see what all the fuss is about.

Dodge, Hyundai crowdsourced-funding sites deemed successes
Wed, 05 Jun 2013What's not to love about crowdsourcing? This idea, after all, has given us Kickstarter as well Local Motors, but automakers are starting to use the social platform to sell more cars (or just drum up a little PR). Both Dodge and Hyundai have used "crowd-funding" recently, and while Automotive News is reporting that neither has racked up big sales with this gimmick, both automakers are pleased with the attention.
For Hyundai, it teamed up with website Motozuma.com to help customers crowdsource money for a down payment, and the automaker matched this amount up to $500. Last year, this helped Hyundai sell an extra 1,600 units, a fraction of its total 2012 sales. That figure is far larger than Dodge fared with the Dodge Dart Registry - it netted only two sales and a small number of individual options. This registry did help University of Southern California fraternity crowdsource $18,000 to buy a Dart for a local Meals on Wheels, however. Despite the low sales figures, Dodge and Hyundai are considering their crowdsourcing programs a success since it helped them connect with younger buyers.
