1965 dodge coronet

We wanted something different for a 2014 power tour car and found this in a building last winter. We bought it with a 2nd owner title in the grand sons name and a story of the 22,000 miles being right. I went through this car end to end top to bottom for mechanicals and was very careful not to alter the car in any way. the dirt and grease that was on it still is on it the dead wasps in the windshield all have names and are my cruising buddies. this car has not been cleaned since the 90's and won't be cleaned as long as I own it. I wanted a car to run a 2500 mile trip in the tour that looked like it was just pulled out of a barn for the ride. you can Fly in and DRIVE this one home. I have a clean and clear Kentucky title in my name and the car is plated, insured and driven.

complete new brake system  including all 4 wheel cylinders, new brake shoes, all steel lines all rubber lines, new rear drums,( front drums were reused but in great shape).and the parking brake works. the car stops great for a 4 wheel drum brake car.

motor work professionally  done  fresh full gasket kit including rear main and head gaskets there are no leaks , all freeze plugs, new cap rotor wires plugs points and condenser,  has a professionally rebuilt stromberg ww 2 bbl carb, all the motor mounts, hoses and belts are new, it has a new 3 core all aluminum radiator with a 10" electric fan, the transmission is un touched except for a fluid change and new front input seal and it shifts out great.

it has new dual exhaust from the manifolds to back of transmission and some used turbo mufflers on it sounds great but quiet. exhaust ends at axle. you do get a little exhaust smell in the car it needs tail pipes.

new wheel bearings and seals in the front all 4 ball joints are moog replacements that don't squeak like the old ones did. the steering is tight and responsive with a new pressure line and fresh fluid.

it has 4 decent tires on it. all tires hold air and are road worthy but were used. it has a rim for a spare in the trunk with the jack kit and 4 hubcaps.

it has a new fuel tank, fuel pump, fuel filter,  sending unit and fuel line. new carb see above  

the lights turn signals all that fun stuff works on the outside of the car. the interior running lights work

everything is there on this car except one piece of trim that goes on the driver's side rocker. i do not think this car has ever been apart except 1 fender was replaced in the 70's form a minor fender bender . didn't touch the grill, bumper or inner support structure. it was very minor whatever caused a fender replacement

on to the stuff that needs attention

the inside turn signal indicators do not work all the time the gas gauge does not work all the time. the Speedo jumps around some and whines sometimes ( common issue is dirt and a bad ground).the radio works but the speaker is dry rotted horribly. it needs 4 shocks . the cooling fan needs a automatic relay or temp sensor switch wired in (right now fan has a plug in that you have to manually plug in under the hood) .  

the seat covers are shot seat frames are good. the carpet is great but faded some. the head liner is gone but all the bows etc are still there to put a new one in.

the body is in over all great shape. there is a soft spot in the passenger side floor pan whir the exhaust used to run close , the front fenders need lower rear patch panels ( there $50 a side). it has 2 soft spots in the trunk floor that a dollar bill will cover. the passenger side trunk drop down needs replaced ( parts available) there is a rust spot on the outside of the pass quarter that is about 2" long from a scratch rusting, there is a 6 ft long 1/8" deep crease in the pass quarter that is real minor, the driver's side quarter needs a little love on the trunk drop down the trunk lid is rotted along the back from mouse p*ss. the car was undercoated and structurally excellent.

come by drive it. we will put it on a lift so you can check under it. I will take it to a Indy mechanic of your choosing within 50 miles for a inspection at your cost. The car is for sale locally. I reserve the right to end this auction. this is a 3 day no reserve auction. this car will NOT be re listed with a lower starting bid. $500 deposit due in 48 hours. the remainder will be paid in cash or postal money order on pick up or before releasing the car. I will help load it for free. shipping is buyers responsibility but i will be flexible and help loading. I will do whatever title work you need to transfer the clean Ky title in your state. I  can hang on to the car for up to 30 days. I can deliver the car to you within 250 miles from 41472 for $1 a mile but I am driving it there.   if you have any questions give me a call 606-495-6219 Jason G.


a close family member is ill and i am happy to sacrifice this car to help them make it day to day

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. FCA US is the only company in the automotive industry to offer the program.

Fiat Chrysler's profit boosted by Ram and Jeep in North America

Wed, Jul 31 2019

MILAN/DETROIT — Fiat Chrysler took the market by surprise by sticking to its full-year profit guidance on Wednesday after a strong performance from its Ram pickup truck in North America helped it defy an industry slowdown. Chief Executive Mike Manley, in FCA's first earnings release since a failed attempt to merge with France's Renault, also left the door open to that or other deals. "We are open to opportunity," Manley said on a call with analysts. "I have no doubt why there still would be interest in it," he added, when pressed on what it would take to revive talks with Renault. Manley declined to comment further. FCA last month abandoned its $35 billion merger offer for Renault, blaming French politics for scuttling what would have been a landmark deal to create the world's third-biggest automaker. Manley said a merger was not a must-have and Fiat Chrysler's business plan was strong. The company said it remained confident its adjusted earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) would top last year's 6.7 billion euros ($7.5 billion). Given disappointing forecasts from other automakers this earnings season, FCA's confirmation of the outlook sent Milan-listed shares in the Italian-American automaker, whose other brands include Jeep, up over 4%. A broad-based auto sales downturn has rattled the sector, forcing FCA's competitors — including Renault, Daimler and Aston Martin — to cut their sales forecasts after second-quarter results, while U.S. carmaker Ford gave a weaker-than-expected 2019 profit outlook. Japan's Nissan, a long-term partner of Renault, said it would cut 12,500 jobs by 2023 after its earnings collapsed. In the second quarter FCA's adjusted EBIT totaled 1.52 billion euros, versus analysts' expectations of 1.43 billion euros, according to a Reuters poll. FCA's U.S. shipments were down 12% in the second quarter but the group said that the successful performance of its Ram brand resulted in an enhanced share of the large pickup truck market of 27.9%, up 7 percentage points from last year. Adjusted EBIT margin in North America rose to 8.9% from 6.5% in the first quarter, thanks to strong demand for the heavy-duty Ram and the new Jeep Gladiator pickup. Chief Financial Officer Richard Palmer also said FCA expected to report up to 10% margins in the region in both the third and fourth quarters.
