Custom built 1968 Dodge Charger. The previous owner, after watching an episode of the Dukes Boys in which the
General Lee was turned into a 4x4 to chase some Jeeps decided he wanted a 4x4 General Lee of his own. So he found
a Charger body that was missing its floor....as well as a few other items and grafted it to a 2000 Dodge Durango
4x4 complete floor pan, frame, firewall, all running gear, seats and digital dash. The donor vehicle has fuel
injected engine, abs brakes, disc front brakes, air bags, cruise, tilt wheel, a/c, heat, 7in monitor with
cd/dvd/backup camera capabilities,Bluetooth capabilities and 10" subs with 750 watt amp. The tires are Dune
Grappler tires ordered straight from Nitto and a brand new extra tire in trunk. Engine is a 4.7 V/8 Auto
transmission.
The ending result is the style of a classic car, but the drivability and comforts of a new one!
It is autographed (and cleared over) on the trunk lid by Bo(John Schneider), Luke(Tom Wopat), Daisy(Catherine
Bach), James Best(Sheriff Rosco), Sonny Shroyer(Enos Strate), Rick Hurst(Cletus) and Ben Jones(Cooter). The car
also comes with a compound bow with fake sticks of dynamite is also signed by Tom Wopat and John Schneider.
Since I have owned the car I have gone through most of the suspension bushings, front shocks, replaced the a/c
compressor, built a custom bumper that is powder coated and recently replaced the top vinyl decal. I purchased a
complete decal set for the car so it comes with spare decals for the doors, trunk and the General Lee for the roof.
The car also comes with various new door and window seals. I also replaced the door hinges with new and doors
close very nicely. Also has a new battery. Currently there is 135000 miles on it and it runs flawlessly. The car
is very presentable and nice looking from any angle. There are a few small bubbles on the car and body filler used
as gauged from a magnet. The only real gripe I have is that the 4x4 shifter linkage was modified and likes to
argue to go into 4 wheel drive. The transfer case is fine…it’s the linkage that binds.
Driving this car brings a great big smile to your face....not to mention all those people you pass. There isn't a
day that I drive the car where I don't see a camera phone pointed in my direction....so you had better be a people
person if you buy this car. The exhaust has a very nice sound. Car is titled as a 1968 Charger and the title is
free and clear.

Dodge Viper now available in matte finish

Tue, Jun 23 2015

The prospect of buying a new Dodge Viper just got that much more enticing with the introduction of matte-finish paint direct from the factory. Available as part of the "1 of 1" customization program, the matte finishes aren't being offered in just a handful of colors like some other automakers do: customers will be able to specify a matte finish on any of the 8,000 colors that are already part of the program's palette. The matte finish option adds yet another step to the exhaustive hand-painting process that Dodge offers on the Viper - a painstaking endeavor that takes upwards of 145 man hours to complete. Specialists start by applying a base coat and a clear finish, followed by the paint and clear coat. The finished body panels are then smoothed with 1,000-grit paper and polished. A second sanding process is required for the matte finish before the application of a matte clear coat. Specify custom stripes (available in five colors or by custom order) and they're applied under the paint, not as decals on top. The availability of the matte finish in conjunction with the stripe options and new satin badging and fuel cap leads to over 50 million combinations. Needless to say, that means no two Vipers need ever leave the Conner Avenue assembly plant the same – though there will surely always be certain favorite combinations, especially on those units ordered from outside the customization program.

These Canadians somehow forgot how to drive in snow

Tue, Dec 6 2016

Montreal drivers experienced a slow-motion pileup on their streets this weeks thanks to the first snow fall of the season. According to the CBC, slippery conditions caused a small pileup involving cars, buses and even a street clearing vehicle. Onlookers in neighboring office buildings watched as vehicle after vehicle slid down Cote du Beaver Hall and crashed into the scrum of waiting cars. First there was a city bus, then a white Ford F-150 work truck loaded down with ladders, then another city bus came along and sandwiched the poor F-150. A Montreal Police Charger then came down the hill backwards, hit the bus in a slow, sad crash before it was crashed into by an out of control plow truck. Since its posting yesterday, the video of the crash has gone viral. Various other vehicles–a green-topped Scion delivery truck and a couple workaday sedans–were lucky enough to escape the pileup, but still suffered through a white-knuckled slippery descent down the hill. Colin Creado, who works nearby the crash site, told the CBC although it was pretty slippery, he was surprised at all the carnage since the storm was forecast well in advance. "You would have thought ... they would have salted the area or at least cordoned it off, because that road is pretty steep," he told the station.

Work at a Chrysler dealership, get free college education

Mon, May 4 2015

The cost of a college education in the US can put a student tens (hundreds, in some cases) of thousands of dollars into debt. FCA US wants to give its dealership employees a leg up, though, and the automaker is now offering a completely free education to them through a partnership with Strayer University. The workers can take any of the college's classes online or on campus through program called Degrees@Work. Currently, the offer is only available to employees Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Ram and Fiat dealers in the automaker's Southeast region, which includes Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Alabama and Tennessee. However, a national expansion will happen before the end of the year, Strayer spokesperson Cristina Henley tells Autoblog. The program will cover all of the students' expenses, including their books, according to Henley. FCA US sees this partnership as a way to improve the talent of its workforce, retain employees longer and possibly attract people wanting to take advantage of this free education. "Many of our dealers have expressed concern over the availability of talent to fill open positions due to business growth and turnover in their stores, especially in metro markets," Al Gardner, the company's Head of Dealer Network Development, said in the Degrees@Work announcement. Strayer has about 40 programs available, including in business administration, accounting, marketing, and more, and the university offers associate's, bachelor's, and master's degrees. It will also give FCA US employees credit for their work experience to get them a diploma even more quickly. FCA US Dealers to Offer Employees No-Cost, No-Debt College Education FCA US teams with Strayer University to develop first-of-its-kind dealer program Degrees@Work program open to all employees of participating dealerships Employees can earn no-cost, no-debt degree through Strayer University All Chrysler, Jeep®, Dodge, Ram and FIAT dealerships may participate First phase of program rollout begins with dealers in the FCA US Southeast Business Center National rollout expected later this year May 4, 2015 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - Employees of Chrysler, Jeep®, Dodge, Ram and FIAT dealerships will have the unique opportunity to earn a no-cost, no-debt college degree through Strayer University's Degrees@Work program, developed in collaboration with FCA US LLC.
