Exterior and Interior

The exterior of this 1938 Dodge Six Series D8 Sedan features a custom teal and black paint job, with the contrasting black fenders emphasizing the car’s flowing prewar body lines. Its prominent vertical chrome grille, separate headlamps, chrome bumpers, running boards, steel wheels with chrome hubcaps, and wide whitewall tires complete the unmistakable late-1930s look. The combination of extensive brightwork and the custom two-tone finish gives this Dodge an appropriately formal presence while preserving the styling that made these cars so distinctive. The interior of this 1938 Dodge Six Series D8 Sedan is finished in brown Mohair and retains many of its period features, including Mohair front and rear bench seats, original-style door handles and window cranks, factory gauges, an AM radio, heater, and dual windshield wipers. The display accompanying the car also reports that its original glass remains in place. A floor-mounted shifter controls the 3-speed manual transmission, keeping the cabin firmly rooted in the straightforward driving experience of the prewar era.

Engine

Under the hood of this 1938 Dodge Six Series D8 Sedan is its 218ci naturally aspirated L-head inline-six, breathing through a single-barrel carburetor and paired with a floor-shifted 3-speed manual transmission. The car retains its traditional 6-volt positive-ground electrical system and oil-bath air cleaner, further preserving the engineering character of the period.

Current Ask
$65,000

Few American performance cars are as raw and instantly recognizable as the first-generation Dodge Viper. This 1994 Dodge Viper RT/10 comes from the early years of the model, when the formula was intentionally simple: a massive naturally aspirated V10, a 6-speed manual, rear-wheel drive, and very little separating the driver from the experience. Showing just 4,443 miles, this example is reported as a one-owner vehicle that has been stored indoors its entire life. Finished in Viper Red over Quartz Gray leather, it presents the classic early-Viper combination and retains the open-top RT/10 configuration that defined the model before the later GTS coupe arrived.

$112,500

This 2022 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody Jailbreak is the kind of example that was clearly preserved with collectability in mind from day one. Showing just 12 miles, it was specially ordered by an enthusiast as a collector’s piece and has reportedly spent its life stored in a climate-controlled garage under a fitted cover, with only occasional start-ups rather than regular driving. The original window sticker remains in place, and the Demonic Red / Black Laguna leather seats are still wrapped in protective plastic. Finished in Indigo Blue with Silver dual stripes, this Jailbreak also carries the Widebody package, 20-inch Satin Carbon Warp Speed wheels, Driver Convenience Group, Technology Group, and a number of distinctive interior and exterior details. Whether viewed as a time-capsule collectible or a virtually untouched opportunity to experience a Redeye Jailbreak, this is an unusually preserved example.

The 1937 Chrysler Royal Series comes from an era when Chrysler leaned heavily on smooth straight-six power, Art Deco styling, and long-distance comfort, and this example keeps that character largely intact.

Finished in black with what the current owner reports to be original paint, this Royal also benefits from a reupholstered red interior, replacement clutch and exhaust components, updated wiring, and added turn signals. The owner further reports a sandblasted frame, body-off refurbishment, approximately 95% tire tread remaining, and a rust-free body.
