Up for sale is a really nice looking 1966 Dodge Charger fastback sports coupe. This was the first year of the Charger, and was Dodge's entry into the personal luxury/ muscle car market. This has been a Texas car most of its life, and after that was owned by a collector/hobbyist who had a winter home in Florida and summer home in Upstate New York. It has not been driven in winter snow or salt. I believe it has had 2 other family owners before I acquired it. This is an older restoration of a straight Texas car and still shows well. Paint still has a nice shine, chrome and bright work is nice, and original interior still looks great! Very nice and neat under the hood, and undercarriage is very nice, not rusty or scaly.
Under the hood of this Mopar is a built 440 4-barrel that really runs well and sounds awesome! Motor, transmission, and rear end have all been rebuilt. Other mechanical items such as belts, hoses, exhaust etc. have also been replaced or redone. Surprisingly gas mileage is not as bad as one might expect. I have been getting between 13 and 16 MPG when I've been driving around and going to cruise-ins. This car just has gobs of power and is a real blast to drive! Odometer reads 15,000 and change, but is not original. I was told it was re-set to zero when all the work was done. No real idea how many actual miles the car has since new.
In short, this is a fun driver car and cruiser. It is certainly NOT a 100 point show car, but is a great inexpensive way to get into a popular Mopar big block muscle car that won't break the bank! Buy this for less than the price of a new econo-box Kia or Hyundai and have 10 times the fun, and an investment that goes up, instead of down in value! Don't miss this awesome piece of Detroit muscle car history!
Please be aware that this car was most recently registered in New York State. The proof of ownership is a transferrable NY registration, along with a bill of sale. NY does not issue titles for cars 1972 or older.
ABOUT ME: I am a long time (35 years) hobbyist and collector of nice original "Survivor" cars. I collect, trade, and fool with nice original cars from the late 1950s to mid 1980s. I keep a "rotating collection" of 6 to 8 such cars. When new arrivals appear, I will sell some to make room. This is the case here.
Now for the rules: 1. Your bid is a contract! If you are the successful bidder, you are expected to pay! Please have all contingencies handled and your money in place BEFORE you bid! No retractions will be allowed, so be sure BEFORE you bid! Please read and understand this: ASK QUESTIONS AND GET ANSWERS BEFORE YOU BID. 2. An $1500.00 NON REFUNDABLE partial payment is due within 48 hours of end of auction. This can be by bank wire transfer. Pay Pal is NOT acceptable for this. Balance is due within 7 days of auction's conclusion. This can be by bank wire transfer as well, and is probably the safest method. 3. Please note that car is currently at my summer residence. This is in upstate NY, about 1 hour west of Albany, and 1.5 hours east of Syracuse. I am from the Carolinas in the winter months. 4. Vehicle and papers will not leave here until paid in full with cleared funds. If you are paying with ANY kind of check, it must clear MY bank before car or ownership will be released. No exceptions! Please note that with all the fraudulent money orders out there, most banks treat them like personal checks and place a 5 to 7 business day hold on them. Wire transfer is the best method. If you are paying balance on pickup, it must be cash in person. No exceptions. 5. Vehicle is sold strictly as-is at my premisies with no guarantee or warranty of any kind. 6. Transportation is the buyer's responsibility. I will try to reasonably help and accommodate you any way I can, but it still YOUR responsibility. 7. If you cannot pick up immediately, that is fine, it can be left here for a reasonable period. However, it still must be paid for within the 7 days, and you should secure insurance as I cannot be responsible for loss or damage due to circumstances beyond my control or act of God. 8. Please ask and get satisfactory answers to all questions BEFORE YOU BID! Since sold strictly as/is, no warranty or returns, once you bid, you have made a binding contract. 9. Car is advertised locally for sale. If I find a buyer through that venue, I reserve the right to end auction early. Please call me at 704-661-1326 or 518-835-5058 with any further questions about this. due to spotty cell service, call both and leave messages at both if no answer. 10. If you have been an Ebay member for less than a year and/or have less than 10 feedbacks, and/or have less than a 95% rating, you MUST contact me BEFORE you bid. Failure to do this may result in my cancelling your bid and blocking you from bidding on my items. I understand that new members can be great customers, but I must talk to you first. Thanks a lot. I am sorry for all the rules, but it seems that 5% of difficult people spoil it for the 95% who are good. Thanks very much for looking! Again, please feel free to call 704-661-1326 cell or 518-835-5058 with any questions. Leave message if no answer. Best to call both and leave messages at both as reception can be spotty. Thanks for looking! |

2013 Dodge Durango R/T
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Not too long ago, Chevrolet got itself into some trouble by throwing the SS badge on just about everything it produced, so I've always been a little hesitant about the seemingly excessive use of the R/T nameplate on Dodge vehicles. For the 2013 model year, every model in Dodge's lineup has an R/T trim level from Dart all the way up to the Durango. Although the R/T name used to signified models made for road and track, I doubt anyone would be delusional enough to assume the Durango - and some of the other models wearing this badge - are suited for any sort of track duty.
Still, when this 2013 Dodge Durango R/T rolled up for me to drive for the week, I couldn't help but take in its big, mean and imposing stance. Sure, if I had my choice of buying any of the Dodge R/T products, the Charger and Challenger would be my top picks for sure, but it's easy to say that the Durango would be a close third - far above the R/T versions of the Avenger, Journey and Grand Caravan.

Chrysler Group moves around execs in wake of recent departure
Tue, 16 Apr 2013Chrysler is busy shuffling executives around in the wake of Ram head Fred Diaz's departure. The automaker has named Reid Bigland (pictured, right) as Diaz's successor in the role of president and CEO of Ram, though Bigland will continue his duties as the head of US sales and the president and CEO of Chrysler Canada. Bigland first came to Chrysler in 2006 from Freightliner Custom Chassis Corporation, so the guy knows a thing or two about trucks.
Meanwhile, Timothy Kuniskis will take over as president and CEO of Dodge. Previously, he served as the head of Fiat in North America and has been with Chrysler in one capacity or another since 1992. His old title now falls to Jason Stoicevich, who will also continue to work as the director of the automaker's California Business Center. Finally, Bruno Cattori will take over as the president and CEO of Chrysler Mexico.
Diaz left his position to take over as a divisional vice president of sales and marketing with Nissan. You can read the full press release on the Chrysler personnel changes below for more information.
