Your Granddaddy's Original Condition Flat Head Inline Six Cylinder 4 Door Sedan on 2040-cars
Springfield, Illinois, United States
64 year old Dodge in AMAZING original condition for its age. Yes, there are a couple scratches. Yes, there are a couple dings in the chrome. But I'm telling you, you will not find one more like your Granddaddy drove than this one. The photos will show the few scratches and dents and even the two small holes in the headliner, but everything else is great. The engine runs well. The only two issues I know it has (and I have had this vehicle for two years and drive it to church on a weekly basis) is the brake fluid has to be refilled once a year and the carb needs cleaned. She is running slightly rough right now, but she still runs like a champ. The radio does not work and I do not know why. I just have not had time to dig into it and find out why. The photos should accurately show the condition of the vehicle, however, do not hesitate to contact me with any and all questions. This is probably the most original car for its era. This is a classic. I have had it for two years and have enjoyed it. However, where I live, I do not have a garage. I covered the car for the two winters but let's be real.....I'm not doing it any good by just covering it. This car needs a garage and I know that. I know that if I continue to keep her, she will start falling apart. She deserves better. And atleast I am wise enough to realize that. She has been a good car and we have enjoyed her immensely. My kids love the fact that they can ride without seat belts. Please help us get this car to a good home where she will be taken care of better than I can and enjoyed as much as she has been with us. I do have a low reserve. If you are seriously interested in this car, let me know and I will send you a private message with the reserve price so there are no surprises. |

2013 Dodge Dart GT
Mon, 16 Dec 2013My younger brother bought a Dodge Dart earlier this summer. It's a basic SXT, in Maximum Steel Metallic, with the 2.0-liter engine, a six-speed automatic transmission and not a whole lot else. Unfortunately, at the time, the Dart was one of the few cars in the compact class I'd never driven. I didn't know a lot about it, and therefore, didn't have a lot to say when he bought it. I think the words "based on an Alfa," popped out when I first saw it.
As it turns out, he's grown quite fond of the dark gray sedan, so it was with some degree of enthusiasm that I paid him a visit in this bright-orange Dart GT. I was excited to see what it was about the Dart that he enjoyed so much, despite my tester featuring a different engine, transmission and a lot more tech. After a week with the car, though, I must say: I don't quite see what all the fuss is about.

Fiat Chrysler taps Amazon, Shell execs to fill roles
Fri, Dec 7 2018MILAN — Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is tapping executives from Amazon and Shell Oil Company with previous automotive industry experience to fill its ranks. CEO Mike Manley said in a letter to employees Thursday that Mark Stewart would join FCA as chief operating officer of North America from Amazon, "a company known for its culture of innovation, and obsession with delivering incredible value to customers." At Amazon, Stewart led teams focused on advanced robotics, artificial intelligence and automation methods. He previously was COO of ZF TRW automotive components supplier. Niel Golightly was named head of global communications. He was most recently Shell's vice president for external relations in North and South America, with a focus on reputation, brand and stakeholder engagement beyond communication strategies. He previously held roles at Ford Motor Company. Related Video: Image Credit: REUTERS/Rebecca Cook Hirings/Firings/Layoffs Alfa Romeo Chrysler Dodge Fiat Jeep RAM FCA Amazon shell Mike Manley
Chrysler to reveal next minivan at 2016 Detroit Auto Show
Tue, Jan 13 2015All eyes in the industry are presently fixed on this year's Detroit Auto Show, but over at Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, they're already looking towards next year's show. That's when the Italian-American automaker says it'll unveil the next Chrysler minivan. The announcement, made on the FCA Corporate Twitter feed, promises that the next Pentastar minivan will debut in January 2016, which (along with the hashtag NAIAS) suggests the next-generation family hauler will debut at the Detroit show next year. Auburn Hills is expected to replace the current Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan with two all-new models: one keeping the minivan form, and the other shifting into more of a crossover. Just which nameplate gets the new form factor, and which will debut at Cobo next year, we don't know. Odds are good that it'll be the minivan not the CUV, though. Chrysler's minivan has been a winning business for the Detroit automaker, pioneering the segment, outselling the competition and marketing around the world under more brands and nameplates than just about anything else in the industry. The vehicle has been sold as the Dodge Caravan, Chrysler Town & Country, Chrysler Voyager, Plymouth Voyager, Lancia Voyager, Ram Cargo Van and Volkswagen Routan, to say nothing of long-wheelbase Grand versions of many of the aforementioned nameplates.
