1949 Dodge Coronet 4-door Sedan on 2040-cars

Year:1949 Mileage:67421
Location:

United States

United States

This is a very nice 1949 Dodge Coronet in original condition.  Using the Old Cars Report Price Guide rating system, I would place this car between a 2 and a 3 on the Vehicle Condition Scale.

This car was repainted original equipment Island Green sometime in the mid-1980's.   It has been in good dry storage since then.  The car had 67,256 miles when  I purchased it in September of 1990.  The car now has 67,421 miles.  Thus, I have decided to sell the car, since I have had little opportunity to drive and enjoy it.   As far as I know, this mileage is accurate.

The interior is original.   The driver seat has a split seam which is shown in one of the pictures.  The front floor mat is original.  It has become brittle with age, When I raised it to have access to replace the brake master cylinder, it crumbled.  Both front door armrests have been recovered.   The headliner is original, with no holes or tears.   All gages work.  The radio does not work.

The rubber trunk mat is not original.   However, it was manufactured to fit a '49 Dodge.

The chassis and drivetrain are completely original.  There is oil seepage on the engine oil pan, but not to the extent that it drips.  Five knew B.F. Goodrich wide WSW tires were installed in July, 2013.  A new fuel pump was installed in June, 2011.   The brake master cylinder and wheel cylinders have been replaced at some time during my ownership.  Underhood is original.

The car maintains good oil pressure and constant engine temperature.  It has never overheated.

This is originally an Iowa car.  The floor pans, trunk, and fenders are rust free.  To my knowledge, this car has never had any body damage or rust repaired.  During my 24 years of ownership, I have seen no evidence of previous body work deteriorating.   All chrome and stainless trim appear to be original.

Shipping is the responsibility of the successful bidder.

Dodge Hellcat orders on hold due to 'unprecedented demand'

Sun, Mar 15 2015

Want to get your hands on a 707-horsepower Dodge Challenger or Charger Hellcat to call your very own? We don't blame you, and you're not alone. According to Motor Authority and confirmed by a spokesperson from Chrysler, Dodge has gotten so many orders for its stable of Hellcats that it simply cannot keep up with demand: "Due to unprecedented demand for the 2015 Dodge Charger and Challenger SRT Hellcats, we are temporarily restricting orders while we validate current orders that are in the system." Put another way, if you're waiting for a Hellcat, your wait is likely to be a lot longer than you'd like. We've reached out to Chrysler to find out how long it might take for a new customer to get a new Hellcat, and we'll update if and when we hear back.

Mopar '13 Dart will roll into Chicago next week

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

We think this officially counts as a tradition. Every year going back to 2010, Mopar has rolled out a limited edition version of a popular product from the Chrysler Group portfolio. First it was the Mopar '10 Challenger, then the Mopar '11 Charger, then last year's Mopar '12 300, and this year it will be the Mopar '13 Dart, which will make its official world debut next week at the 2013 Chicago Auto Show.
Limited in number to just 500 units, the Mopar '13 Dart is no mere appearance package, though the demeanor of the Dart will be murdered out with a gloss black finish, gloss black 18-inch wheels, a set of Mopar blue stripes and a mean-looking Mopar ground effects kit. Likewise, the interior is touched up with leather seats (a blue one for the driver and black hides for the passengers), gloss black and black chrome trim, blue accent stitching, a sport pedal kit and other Mopar interior accessories.
Turning our attention back to the mechanical bits, the Mopar '13 Dart comes with the car's most powerful engine, a turbocharged 1.4-liter MultiAir four (shared with Fiat 500 Abarth) that's paired with a manual transmission. Those big, black wheels get wrapped in low profile 225/40R18 performance tires, and keeping everything in check is an upgraded brake kit with slotted rotors. The steering has also been calibrated for performance, the suspension lowered seven millimeters, and the exhaust tuned for better engine breathing.
