1965 Dodge Coronet 500 Convertible Chrystler Plymouth Rat Hot Rod Vintage Hemi on 2040-cars
Brooklyn, New York, United States
Every so often I have
to let go of one of my projects to make room for something else. By no
means does that mean that this isn't a great car ,or that its not worth a
bucket of cash,because it most definitely is! I have purchased a 1 of 7
car and that will be getting my full attention! This is a Beautiful,
1965 dodge coronet 500 v8 convertible. Going off the vin , this is
quite possibly a 426 max wedge car,but i have not been able to confirm
that. I started a full Rotisserie restoration on this car ,not to long
ago and have gone through the body completely . All of the minor rust
that the car had was taken care of and all of the rough body work as
well. The body is now clean and straight and has been finished off in
epoxy primer to seal in the metal completely . The glass is all in good
shape and the windows roll up and down no problem. The seats are all the
there but will need to be redone as well as the rest of the interior.
The dashboard is complete and all of the gauges ,switches,harnesses etc
are present. The Floor pans, trunk pans,inner quarters,fire wall and all
frame rails are in perfect condition and very strong. All the body
panels are original on this car ,never rotted out since the day it was
born!I have the bumpers and brackets for the car as well. Brakes will
need to be gone through but the front end is tight and all there with a
good solid steering box. As seen in the pics ,the convertible top will
need to be completely done ,but im sure that's no surprise. This car is a
rolling chassis, but i do have a great running 1965/66 440ci motor and a
727 trans that you can purchase separately if you need it. This car is
now a pretty easy restoration and will surely make someone very happy .
HAPPY BIDDING !! Note: the buyer will be completely responsible for all
shipping costs and car must be paid for in full by certified bank check
or cash ,up front before car can be released. I encourage any buyer to
get the vehicle inspected before you purchase it to make sure you are
completely satisfied with it and it is everything you are looking for!
Also, you can text me if you have questions about the car. I will be
happy to answer any questions as long as i do know the answer. MARC

1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express in Generation Gap showdown with 1933 Ford Pickup
Fri, 18 Jul 2014Auto enthusiasts love a good debate, whether it's Mustang versus Camaro or Ferrari against Lamborghini. But how about a battle between two very different vintages of classic pickup trucks? In this case, the fight is between a 1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express and a 1933 Ford Model 46 truck with a flathead V8.
The shootout comes courtesy of the internet series Generation Gap, and its concept is super-simple. One guy prefers classics, and the other likes newer rides. They choose a category, pick two vehicles and put them head to head. In this case, neither is exactly modern, though. The Ford is more than old enough to receive Social Security checks, and the Dodge is hardly a young whippersnapper.
Other than both being pickups, these two models were made to serve very different functions. The Li'l Red Express was basically the progenitor of today's muscle trucks, with a big V8 that made it one of the quickest new models in its day (admittedly, 1979 was a rough time for automotive performance). On the other hand, the '33 Ford was just meant to work, with little pretense for anything else. One of the hosts describes it as "the simplest, most difficult" vehicle he's driven because of the tricky double clutchwork necessary to shift gears. Scroll down to watch the video and try to decide which of these two American classics you would rather have in your garage.
NHTSA investigates FCA for SUVs that roll out of Park
Tue, Aug 25 2015The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening a preliminary evaluation into the 2014 Dodge Durango and 2014-205 Jeep Grand Cherokee after 14 complaints of the SUVs rolling out of Park. An estimated 408,000 of them could be affected, if a recall is necessary. All of the current complaints submitted to NHTSA about the issue concern the Grand Cherokee, and the claims allege that the SUV can roll out of Park whether or not the engine is running. Some folks report that they check the indicator each time because the gear sometimes fails to engage. Among the 14 cases, there are five accounts of crashes and three injuries, including a situation with someone allegedly being rolled over. NHTSA's preliminary evaluations are meant to investigate "the scope, frequency, and safety-related consequence" of a reported problem. They don't necessarily lead to a recall.

The unintended motion has occurred with both the engine off and the engine running. ODI has also identified EWR field report data related to the alleged defect. The model year 2014 and 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles are equipped with an electronic gear selector (shift-by-wire system). The gear selection is made by pressing the shifter-paddle forward or backwards; the shifter does not move along a gate path as with conventional gear selectors. A Preliminary Evaluation has been opened to asses the scope, frequency, and safety-related consequence of the alleged defect. The VOQs associated with the opening of this investigation are: 10733158, 10730952, 10683556, 10679497, 10583366, 10725429, 10715401, 10711893, 10676998, 10668651, 10662619, 10662308, 10605865, and 10567538.
FCA CEO Mike Manley will take undefined new role after PSA merger
Wed, Dec 18 2019MILAN — Fiat Chrysler Chief Executive Mike Manley will remain with the new group set to result from a planned merger with French rival PSA-Peugeot, Chairman John Elkann said on Wednesday. In a letter to Fiat Chrysler (FCA) employees on the day the two companies announced a binding agreement for a $50 billion tie-up to create the world's fourth-largest carmaker, Elkann said he was "delighted" that the combined group would be led by current PSA CEO Carlos Tavares. "And Mike Manley, who has led FCA with huge energy, commitment and success over the past year, will be there alongside him," he said. He did not say what position Manley would hold. Elkann — who will chair the new group — said there was still much to be done to complete the merger. "Over the coming months we must work tirelessly and determinedly to fulfill all the approval requirements needed to finalize the commitment we have signed," he said.
