Hi everybody. This beast belongs to my neighbor who is not internet active. He has been tinkering with this machine for as long as I have been his neighbor, and he loves the car very much, but must sell it for health reasons. So I offered to list it for him. 

I sat down with him and he told me all about the car, and took me for a ride. 

The car is a 1969 DODGE CORONET R/T 440 CONVERTIBLE. It is red with black trim, black interior, and a beautiful black top that functions perfectly on this convertible. 

73,511 miles

IT IS ALL ORIGINAL EXCEPT FOR THE RADIO! He has the original radio and will include it in this auction. The car runs and drives very well and is fully functional. 

He bought this car NEW in February of 1970 and has the original title! 

I confirmed online that it is one of only 317 made. He thinks it may be rarer than that, as it has some special features that may make it one of a kind. It was built by Dodge for the dealership owner at North Shore Dodge here in Wisconsin, and he thinks Dodge might have given it special touches for the dealer, like the front AND rear bumper guards on the chrome fenders. Other features: 

  • 440 automatic
  • 3.23 Rear End
  • Original Drivetrain 
  • MANUAL BRAKES
  • Oversize Drums
  • Bubble Hood
  • Low back buckets
  • Power Steering
  • Lighting Group
  • Firestone 500 Tires
  • Radiator is painted but original
  • Replaced water pump - will include original
  • Replaced alternator
  • Replaced brake lines and rebuilt wheel cylinders about 15 years ago
  • Needs tail pipes and mufflers are starting to go
  • Needs heat raiser spring
  • Needs column rebuild
  • Trunk and floors are still SOLID
  • Doors have nicks and small dents but no rust!
Ready to be restored! 

He would love to speak with you about your plans. Please come see the car in person if you can! Run any questions by me via email and I will go next door and ask him. 

You can see some bondo in the pictures and there is some rust in the places you would expect. 

Let me know if there are other pics or videos you want me to take and I will email them to you, as eBay allows only 24 pics. 

We went for a ride and the car sounds angry in an awesome way. I videotaped our short ride for you but the video does not do the growl of this car any justice. I also did a video of the engine, and a short video of the top closing. eBay won't let me include the links, so please go to YouTube and do a search for each of the following codes to see each video:

Thanks for checking it out and be sure to send me your questions! I have perfect feedback that I am willing to put on the line to help out my neighbor who needs to pay some health bills.

Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango to lose color options temporarily

Wed, 19 Nov 2014

In the market for a Jeep Grand Cherokee or Dodge Durango? Well, if you fancy a more expressive color for your new SUV, you'd better get your order in, or plan on waiting until well into 2015.
The SUVs will be limited to just four monochromatic shades - black, white, silver and gray - until at least February, thanks to an upgrade to the paint shop at the two vehicles' Jefferson North factory. For the Grand Cherokee, that means it's losing more than half its color palette while the Durango is dropping two-thirds of its color catalog.
The loss of colors is inconvenient, but the upgrade will have a slightly bigger effect on the overall supply of SUVs, as Chrysler will need to end its relentless build pace at the factory for a three-week shutdown starting on December 22. The good news for fans of the SUVs is that once the work is completed, we should see a gradual expansion of the color palettes for both the Durango and Grand Cherokee, beyond even what's offered now.

What's the deal with Chrysler demanding colleges crush their Vipers? [w/video]

Fri, 07 Mar 2014

Students and teachers at a Washington community college are up in arms following an order from Chrysler that it must destroy the pre-production Dodge Viper that was donated to the school's automotive technology program ten years ago.
The Viper in question is said to be the fourth off the production line, based on its VIN, and has had its emissions controls disabled, allowing its ten-cylinder engine to produce 600 horsepower, according to a report from Yahoo! Autos. As one of the first Vipers ever produced, the school's AT instructors claim it could be worth $250,000 in a museum, while a local news report purports that Jay Leno once tried to purchase the car, but the sale was prevented by Chrysler.
As pointed out by our friends at Autobytel, though, there are a lot of things in this story that don't quite add up. Immediately noticeable from the news report embedded below - which shows the car at South Puget Sound Community College - is that the car in question is not a 1992 model. When the Viper went on sale in 1992, it was only available as an RT/10 with a (flimsy) soft top, like the red car shown above. But the car featured in the report from KING5 News (inset image) is clearly a hardtop Viper GTS, which didn't enter production until 1996. And even if, as reported by a local newspaper, the hardtop featured is a prototype, it doesn't explain the lack of another iconic feature of the first Vipers - their distinctive side pipes. This kind of pokes holes in the school's argument that this is the fourth Viper to ever roll down the line. At best, this appears to be a pre-production Viper GTS.

2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat revving is sonic bacon

Fri, 23 May 2014

This is the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, and we're sure that by now, you know its stats, including over 600 horsepower from its 6.2-liter, supercharged V8. What, pray tell, does that blown engine sound like, though?
At least judging on the sonic strength of this video, it's very, very dirty. Honestly, it sounds unlike anything that's come out of the Chrysler Group in a long time, if ever. It's loud, almost brutally so, with a bark that few road-going V8s can match.
Of course, you should be the final judge here. Take a look and a listen at the two videos below, one of which comes from our friends at Cars.com that provides a nice look under the hood, and then let us know what you think of the Hellcat's singing voice in Comments.
