Location:
Dundas, Ontario, Canada
|
This car was originally from the USA and was imported into Canada 16 years ago. It is located in Dundas, ON which is just outside Hamilton in storage. Viewing can be arranged. I purchased it off the previous owner who had it for 16 years and drove it every year except winter. I was going to customize it, but found something already done, so im going to put it up for sale. The Good:It runs, drives and stops. I had it at about 60-70mph on the highway for about an hour. I have drove it around town as well. I have drove maybe 3 or 400 miles in the car. The radiator and carburetor have been professionally rebuilt right after i got it. The brakes work as they will lock the wheels if you hit them hard enough, I do have 6 new wheel cylinders to go with the car as i was going to change to a dual master set up. The interior was done at some point. Its in very good condition. Original tube radio still works, wipers are new and work (no washer though), horn works. All glass is there and not cracked, windows roll up and down. Body is solid from the grass line up no rust. No rust on the doors. Original headliner still in car and intact. Starts right up, first time cold no problems. I have the original factory service repair manual and parts catalogue with all the parts numbers, and a owners manual. Cigarette lighter still works. Push button transmission functions great in all gears. Original generator works fine. Oil pressure is good. The oil pressure and amp meter both work fine. Has Power steering, but manual drum brakes. Heater works. Headlights, signal lights and tail and brake lights all work. All body parts needed are available. Classic 2 Current has the floors and all panels needed, also here on ebay. This is a good place to start on your restoration. Something you can drive while you work. The Bad: The floors, trunk and rockers were done before i bought it from previous owner. He drove it for 16 years, but they were done right. He described it as a wrap around job. So while you can drive this car as it sits, they need to be done again. Oil leak from valve covers, but have new valve cover gaskets in the trunk. Also speedometer and odometer dont work, I have new speedo in the trunk. The odometer reads 85000 and change and previous owner estimated current mileage at around 88000. The fuel gauge doesnt work, new owner had new fuel tank installed so not sure if sending unit in there or not. I did noticed if i fill it right up it will leak, it appears to come from where filler neck meets tank, so im guessing no seal was used in there.Temperature guage also doesnt work, I put in new thermostat and housing. But thats as far as i got there. There is some rust on the inside of the trunk lip, not on the trunk itself but just the lower substructure. The lower quarters, rockers, lower fender by the door all have bondo, as well the the top of the fenders by the headlights. Missing passenger side sun visor. Exhaust is aftermarket cherry bomb that wasnt routed correctly in my opinion, but leaks as well so needs to be redone. May be a leak from the manifold, but not sure. It will smoke after it gets warm, so may be from valve cover leak. Also paid a friend to change the oil and filter, and he complained about how hard it was to get the gaskets right (old style canister). So now when it runs there appears to be a slight leak from there. It didnt leak before he changed oil, so im guessing he botched the gaskets. When i got the car, the keys didnt work in any of the locks. I shot WD40 in them all, now they all work fine except drivers door. Will sell to USA and Canada only. Please only serious bidders, as this costs over a 125 dollars to list. Only bidders with over 10 feedback. I will cancel others unless you contact me first. I will assist in shipping if I can and can help load it, but shipping is the sole responsibility of the winning bidder. 500 Deposit due within 24 hours of auction end. If buy it now is used, 500 deposit is due immediately. Please feel free to ask any and all questions. I may have missed something, or if i haven't covered something you want to know i can surely find out if i can. Ive tried to be as honest on here as i can. As I hate surprises. Of course selling as is, where is with no warranty. Ive seen this listed in a few auctions so i will repeat it, its bid to win, not to view it. Thank you for your time. Best of luck. |

The Dodge Neon is coming back... to Mexico
Tue, Mar 15 2016It's been a long time since we've seen a new Dodge Neon putt-putting around. But soon it will be back, and in North America, too, if you want to get technical about it. But this time, the Neon will be limited exclusively to Mexico. According to Ward's Auto, FCA is planning to import the Fiat Tipo to Mexico, but rebadged under the Dodge brand and with the Neon nameplate on the trunk... even if it doesn't have those signature round headlights, or a three-speed automatic transmission. Never heard of the Fiat Tipo? It debuted almost a year ago as the Aegea Project, and went into production shortly thereafter – similarly called the Egea in Turkey where it's made, but the Tipo in other European markets. It's a budget-oriented, C-segment compact with a range of four-cylinder engines, and though designed from the get-go as a four-door sedan, it rolled into Geneva last month in hatchback and wagon forms as well. The Tipo is built at the Tofas plant in Bursa, Turkey, alongside the Fiat Doblo – which is also shipped over to North America, rebadged as the Ram ProMaster City. In the Mexican market, FCA also sells the Fiat Siena sedan as the Dodge Vision, the Mitsubishi Mirage rebadged as the Dodge Attitude, and the Fiat Strada as the Ram 700 – all nameplates exclusive to our neighbors to the south. Whatever its origin, it'll be interesting to see a Neon again the next time we venture South of the Border – particularly considering that the Neon was arguably the last time that Chrysler had a competitive compact on its hands. The Caliber that followed never gained the same kind of traction, so to speak, and FCA recently ceased production (for the time being at least) of the Dodge Dart and Chrysler 200 to focus on larger trucks crossovers – the likes of which the Caliber tried to emulate (in style, if not in substance).
FCA adds Apple CarPlay and Android Auto to Uconnect
Mon, Jan 4 2016Fiat Chrysler Automobiles has three showcases ready for this week's Consumer Electronics Show. The spotlight reveal is a "glimpse" of the fourth-generation Uconnect system, which now gets Apple CarPlay and Google's Android Auto. They lead the advances due to be rolled out this year, which include beefier internals for faster startup and processing, the next evolution of the Uconnect navigation system, capacitive touchscreens, and higher resolution screens. Going beyond the vehicle, a concept display will present solutions to help drivers achieve "Car. Life. Balance." That means, as we've heard before, a car that knows what you want before you realized you wanted it via monitoring your driving habits, communicating with other vehicles and traffic infrastructure, and prioritizing information in certain situations to keep the driver from being overwhelmed. A Waze-like community of road knowledge is also on the menu, and it allows for tagging of tag street conditions to inform other vehicles, and a follow-me mode where people can "request to follow other vehicles." Government types will want to scope out the 2016 Dodge Charger Pursuit with an exclusive Uconnect system boasting a 12.1-inch screen and enhanced resolution that can speak to the officer's mobile computer. Have a read of the press release below for more details. FCA Announces New Fourth-Generation Uconnect® Systems at 2016 Consumer Electronics Show in Las VegasLatest technology advancements help provide Car. Life.

This SEMA special drag race is absurdly awesome
Fri, Dec 5 2014The SEMA Show came and went last month, and it showed us a ton of heavily modded goodies to dream about during the long, cold winter. The Motor Trend Channel on YouTube is keeping the party rolling a little longer, though, with a drag race inspired by the aftermarket event. All of the hosts were supposed to borrow a vehicle from the show for the big race, but only two of them actually cajoled companies into lending their wares. Still, the result includes four very cool and extremely different examples of the breadth of the automotive hobby. First up, there's a 1955 Chevrolet with a 535-cubic-inch (8.8-liter) Hemi V8 stuffed under the hood. Appropriately, it's dubbed the Blasphemi, and with skinny tires up front, fat rubber in the rear and a stripped interior, this this is made to go very fast in a straight line. Next, there's a stock Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat boasting 707 horsepower. Plus, host Jessi Lang has her dog riding shotgun for the race. A Chevy Sonic RS with some body mods, downpipe and intake is also competing. Finally, the most bizarre of the quartet is a custom 1958 Jeep Forward Control with a 5.7-liter Hemi V8 and treads to replace the wheels. Obviously, the Blasphemi and Hellcat are the only two that really have a chance of winning, but check out the video to see which one crosses the finish line first.
