Clear

This is a 1969 Dodge Charger, was a factory A/C car, but A/C is long gone. I have a non A/C heater box that will go with the car, but it is not installed. I never drove the car in cold weather so I never installed it. So no heat, no air. Original engine was a 383 2 barrel. Now has a 1969 440 hp motor. Rear end is a 3:55 Suregrip. VIN matches title, dash trunk lip and radiator support. clean, clear title. OK good points. Engine was rebuilt and I have put just over 2000 miles on it. transmission was rebuilt as well. Brand new sure grip rear end installed last summer. I have about 500 miles on it. Gas tank , sending unit, all lines are new. Car has 4 wheel drum brakes, all new lines, booster, master cylinder and brake components. Could stop better, but it is a drum brake car. All the wiring is new from Year one. that includes dash harness rear light harness , forward light harness, all of them. I spent lots of money on factory wiring for this car. Alternator, starter, hp manifolds, power steering pump, radiator, are all new and also from year one. Paint is about 2 years old. It isn't a show car paint job, but is very presentable. I had trunk pan , extensions, and rear cross member replaced. Both rear quarters were replaced, prior to my ownership. vacuum headlights work as they should. I installed Dynamat on the door panels and floor boards as well as new carpet and new center console. Exhaust system was installed last year with Dynamax mufflers. Not a concourse factory job, but its OK. Bad points. The front end is original and has not been changed, at least to not my knowledge. The car drives straight without any issues, but it was my intent to have it upgraded eventually. It needs a rear leaf spring shackle bushing installed on the drivers side. The interior is all original. and looks OK. I would probably only replace the seat covers and the headliner. There is a mouse hole under the passenger side sun visor. Look at the pics and you can tell. Not bad, but to be perfect, they need changed, but perfectly fine for me now as a driver car. missing back cover on passenger seat. Door panels are nice as well as the door pads, especially for 45 years old. windows all roll up and down fine, except the right rear. It works, but needs guided with your hand. It has a bad nylon roller, Not a big issue, especially being a general lee, but wanted to point it out. radio is an am radio and is for looks. I wanted the factory appearance, but really have no desire for am radio. It does leak some oil and the power steering box recently started leaking, I am pretty sure from the rear seal needs replaced. Not a major issue for as often as I drive the car, but I wanted to point them out. General lee stuff. It has high quality decals installed a year ago, push bar and roll bar are an exact match from the show. Cb is the Cobra 78X as the original general lees, it is mounted but not wired to the car. has the correct tear drop antenna. Wheels are american racing vecors 8.5 on the rear with 245 60 r 15 BFG and 15x7 up front running 235 60 r 15. Tires are all in good shape, Same 2000 miles on them. The sun visors were signed by John Schneider on the drivers side and Tom Wopat on the passenger side. The tail lights are from a original TV series general lee and have the plaque mounted on them from when they were purchased from Warner Bros. Has the Dixie horn, but factory horn is still functional. All in all it is a very nice driver General Lee that gets tons of attention and blows away other cars at the car shows. It is a blast for sure.
