Soda Springs, Idaho, United States

I am selling my 1971 Dodge Challenger at a low reserve.  My employment has changed and some of my toys must go.  This has  been my baby for the past 5 years.  It has been stored in its own climate controlled room in my home since I purchased it.  I purchased the car 5 years ago from an individual in the San Francisco area.  The car had spent most of its life in Denver Colorado where he purchased it I believe in the late 1990s.  He lived in Denver and took a road trip in the challenger to San Francisco a year before I bought it and decided he like the are and stayed there.  The car is painted in the beautiful Sassy Grass Green.  The car was painted about three years ago.  The paint is very nice but does have a few chips.  I love to drive this car and it does not sit much other than winter.  I do not drive it in the snow or on rainy days.  All gauges, lights, wipers, heater, etc.. work on the car.  The mileage is just under 45K and it drives like it has 45K but the car is too fun to drive so I doubt it is actual.  The interior is nice, seats, headliner, door panels are all nice and the dash is nice with no cracks.  The trunk and undercarriage are solid and in great shape.  The car has the snorkel fiberglass hood.  I have the original hood and springs if the new owner would like them.  The vinyl top is in nice condition but there is a little bubbling under the top in a few areas.  The engine runs great and has a ton of power but does run a bit on the hot side if it idles long on warm days the transmission shifts smooth.  I was going to have the water pump replaced but it has not been enough of an issue to worry abou,t  the windows have been tinted and it looks good but there is a small spot on the drivers window down low that has pulled slightly.  the car has a nice CD player.  This is a beautiful car and gets thumbs up and attention everywhere it goes.  I take it to all of the local cruise ins and car shows.  It always shows well.  This car is fun to drive has power steering and 3:73 gears so it is very nice to cruise on backroads and/or the free way at freeway speeds.  I have attached a link to youtube with a walk around video of the car      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_oXOn3ykLXA     The tires are muddy in the video because I had to take it thru a mud puddle to get it out of my basement for pics.

If you need additional info or pics please let me know.

South Dakota dealer filled to brim with classic cars

Wed, 12 Mar 2014

Other than the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and Mount Rushmore, South Dakota isn't generally a hot topic, but that just means that cool stuff can hide in the open waiting to be discovered. Case in point: the classic car dealer Frankman Motor Company that operates three locations in Sioux Falls, SD.
Unearthed by the folks at Bring a Trailer, Frankman is a treasure trove of vintage, American iron. Their collection is full of the type of vehicles your irresponsible but cool uncle would show up with when you were a kid. Even better, these cars are priced at a level a working man can afford.
If you are lusting about a cruiser then Frankman has a 1956 Cadillac Deville Hard Top Sedan (pictured right) with 82,896 miles for $12,975. It's painted a color called Cascade Grey, but looks more like a pastel purple in pictures. While it needs some repairs to the accessories, the Caddy runs and drives, which is all you really need.

Small number of 2013 Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger models recalled

Sun, 24 Feb 2013

A small number of units of the 2013 Chrysler 200 (inset) and 2013 Dodge Avenger are being recalled over a broken control valve in the fuel tank assembly. The potential 1,785 sedans were manufactured late last year, and if affected with a broken control valve could suffer from stalling or fuel leakage.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration notes that the recall should begin next month, at which time owners can take their cars to dealers for repair free of charge. The full release with more information is just below.

Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R named Road & Track Performance Car of the Year

Mon, Nov 9 2015

With a 526-horsepower, 5.2-liter V8 that roars to 8,250 rpm, it's really hard to consider the 2016 Ford Shelby Mustang GT350R an underdog in any fight. However, the Shelby held the lowest as-tested price and was only middle of the pack in terms of power in Road & Track's 2016 Performance Car of the Year challenge. The 'Stang's numbers clearly didn't tell the whole story about the potent coupe because Ford's muscle car grabbed the title in this year's test. A model needs to be new or significantly updated to be eligible for the honor, and R&T found an impressive slate of eight candidates this year. The challengers included the Bentley Continental GT3-R, Cadillac ATS-V Coupe, Chevrolet Corvette Z06, Dodge Viper ACR, Mercedes-AMG GT S, and Porsche Cayman GT4. The Ferrari 488 GTB was the most expensive of the bunch with an as-tested price of $347,942, which is five times more than the Shelby. Once the group was together, R&T hustled them over curving roads and on the National Corvette Museum Motorsports Park. There was a lot to love about the Shelby, even in this impressive crew. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," editor-in-chief Larry Webster said in the announcement of the results. The GT350R joins some great company. Past winners include the Porsche 911 GT3 last year and the Corvette in 2013. For some fantastic photography and the complete appraisal of these performance machines check out R&T's website for the full story.

The article appears in the December/January issue, on newsstands November 17, and on RoadandTrack.com. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," said Larry Webster, editor-in-chief of Road & Track. "Not only does the car have soul and harness so much firepower with such ease, but the real achievement here is that it's so approachable. It's a car you can't help but love." The Mustang Shelby GT350R was the winner by a runaway vote.
