Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States
|
You are bidding on a 1966 Dodge Coronet 500 318 poly with a console shifted automatic. Was driven by the original owners between California and new mexico up unitl 1979 when the poly 318 blew up, the couple bought a new 1979 Chrysler and the coronet received a 318 and automatic tranny out of a wrecked 1978 cordoba. My dad bought the car in 1980 and drove it in this condition for 1 year until he sold it to his buddy. His buddy painted it, put mags on it, and swapped a four speed into it. The car sat in a field from 1995 until around 3 years when we received the car back from the family of my dads buddy after his passing. We bought a motorhome 413 with less than 40,000 miles on it, put 915 heads, a lumpy cam, new double roller timing set, new water pump, new melling HV oil pump, comes with a Mallory unilite distributor with Mallory coil and brand new MSD street fire plug wires, a deep oil pan and new gaskets/seals all the way around. It has a strong bottom end and low compression being that it was from a motor home. because of this we planned to supercharge it and make a nostalgic hot rod. 4 speed was rebuilt around 10 years ago and was never used after. The car has a cast iron bellhousing but it has a 10 1/2" clutch/flywheel. BUT we have an 11" flywheel with the car. so it needs an 11" clutch to work with the cast iron bellhousing. OR you need to buy a an aluminum bellhousing to fit the 10 1//2" clutch/flywheel. The body has 36,000 original miles on it. Car has an 8 3/4 rear end with 741 center section with 3:23 gears and a sure grip. The car is totally rust free. It was originally pale yellow with a gold/tan interior, has the fender tag, door VIN and clear title. Minor surface rust on the floors and trunk. Fenders/Quarters/ doors have minor dents and require body work but all the original sheetmetal should be able to be saved. Car needs the 4 speed welded into place, the airshocks punched through the floor so it needs to be welded back together. Comes with tons of extra trim, 2 extra grilles, some extra turn signals and tail light, has the factory console that was cut to fit the four speed. Engine bay was sanded down and painted with 4 stage rattle can (primer, silver metal flake base, candy apple red top coat, clear coat), looks like nice candy apple red and turned out great. Finish putting it together and make a nostalgic drag car or tear it apart and restore it! GREAT father and son project, like it was with me and my dad. We have run out of money to finish it! Has all the seats and trim, missing one taillight surround, one rocker moulding and the trunk lip trim and maybe other misc. items. Car may be missing more but it is 95% complete. CAR DOES NOT RUN, the shipper needs to be aware of this, car will be in roller form with NO brakes, We do not ship, we will help load the car with your arranged shipper, we will store it for 30 days after the end of the auction for free, after 30 days its $40 a month.

Watch dual-engined Dodge SRT4 do a FWD burnout, a RWD burnout, then AWD launch
Wed, Dec 3 2014There's something fantastically insane about racers who go out on their own and build something unique. Just take this crazy video from last year of a twin-engine Dodge SRT4 at a drag strip that can burn the rubber at either end – or both ends – at a moment's notice. With tires sticking out way past the fenders, a massive cooling system at the front and no back window to speak of, this Dodge is clearly meant solely for speed. Though it's real party trick is being able to spin the front or rear wheels independently. The setup makes for three quite showy burnouts. When it came time to actually get down the track, things got somewhat awkward. Like other twin-engine creations we've seen, the separate powertrains make for some odd sounds and a weird look launching down the strip. Still, there's no doubt that the engineering behind this Frankenstein is very impressive. Scroll down to see this monster in action and another of it in a very mismatched race last year.

Chrysler extending production of current Dodge Avenger, Jeep Wrangler, Grand Caravan
Wed, 24 Jul 2013Are you hesitant to pull the trigger on a brand new Dodge Avenger in hopes that a new one will be coming? Well, don't hold your breath. According to The Detroit News, Chrysler will be extending production of the current Avenger sedan through the end of 2015.
Originally, we heard that the company would kill the Avenger to better focus its midsize sedan efforts on the Chrysler 200 replacement. But then new reports stated there would indeed be an Avenger successor, and that we could see it as early as next January. This Detroit News report cites supplier sources confirming the extension of Avenger production, though Chrysler has not released an official statement on the matter.
These same suppliers say that the current Jeep Wrangler will live on through mid-2018 - that's right, another five years. The Detroit News reports that a replacement for the iconic, go-anywhere Jeep was due in mid-2016.
Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango still catching fire after recall
Thu, May 7 2015Automakers issue recalls all the time. It's part of the cost of doing business. We just assume that once the recall has been carried out, the problem in question has been fixed. But that's not always the case, as this latest investigation being undertaken by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration goes to show. The problem stems back to a recall issued by Chrysler last summer. It revolved rather the sun visor in the SUVs it makes at its Jefferson North Assembly Plant – specifically, the screw affixing the sun visor could end up rubbing against the wiring for the lamp in the vanity mirror, potentially causing an electrical short and even a fire. 62 such short circuits, 38 fires and three injuries reported, prompting Chrysler to recall nearly 900,000 units of the 2011-2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango (over 650,000 of them in the United States). The plastic spacers they installed to rectify the problem, however, may not have done the trick. Eight reports (but none involving injuries) have been filed with the NHTSA regarding the same issue recurring, spurring the government agency to open a new investigation into the matter. If deemed necessary, the NHTSA could ask FCA to issue another recall to fix the issue again, which we may necessitate the installation of a fuze to prevent any such the electric short. Related Video: INVESTIGATION Subject : Headliner Fires Date Investigation Opened: MAY 01, 2015 Date Investigation Closed: Open NHTSA Action Number: RQ15003 Component(s): ELECTRICAL SYSTEM , INTERIOR LIGHTING Manufacturer: Chrysler (FCA US LLC) SUMMARY: On July 1st, 2014 Chrysler (FCA US LLC) issued safety recall 14V-391 to remedy a wiring-related fire hazard on the headliner of approximately 661,888 model year (MY) 2011-2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango vehicles manufactured between January 5, 2010 and December 11, 2013. The recall was in response to the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) investigation EA14-001 during which data provided by Chrysler indicates that the fire is caused by an electrical short in the vanity lamp wiring for either one of the sun visors mounted on the vehicle. The sun visors are mounted to the roof of the vehicle through the headliner with three metal screws.
