1960 Dodge Pioneer

Offered for sale is this extremely rare 1960 Dodge Pioneer 2 door post.  This was the very first year for the Dodge Dart and the uni-body construction.  This beautiful example from the Chrysler Design Team of yesteryears, although pretty much the last year for the big fins from Mr. Exner's vision.  This stunning automobile shows only 44,069 low miles on the odometer (unknown for sure if the mileage is original, but the condition of the car certainly does support the low mileage, as does the statement from the previous owner).

This very nice and rare Mopar did receive a very substantial cosmetic restoration a few years ago by the previous owner who had purchased the car in the early 70's.  The car was repainted it's original color, a spruce green metallic with a white top.  Most of the chrome was re-plated and the stainless steel trim work was polished.  The interior was completely re-done as well, in a light jade green that very nicely compliments the attractive two-tone paint scheme.  After enjoying the car for awhile, the owner put it in storage for a few years.  The exterior paint still looks amazing, but there are a couple of very minor blemishes, scratches and imperfections that are normally seen on older restored drivers.  The bumpers, sill plates and other components were re-chromed again last year and are absolutely gorgeous.  All the stainless steel and aluminum trim is in excellent shape.  Some of the pot metal has very minor pitting which is normal and to be expected on any older car.

The 318 V8 engine fires right up and purrs like a kitten.  The push button Power Flite automatic transmission shifts very smoothly.  The car runs and drives really, really nicely and is an absolute pleasure to drive.  All the brakes were rebuilt by the previous owner  a couple of years ago (new wheel cylinders, shoes, rebuilt mast cylinders, etc.).  The glass is in great condition and most of the weather strip seals and rubber were replaced.  All the electrical components work, except the radio.  Even the foot pedal operating the windshield wipers works! 

The aftermarket "mag" wheels and near new steel belted Kelly Charger P225 70 R 15 tires are a nice cosmetic and utilitarian addition to this very sharp looking car.  I don't have the original wheels, but I have the original tires (Remington Cushion-Aire Poly 4ply Polyester Tubeless 478)! and they have very good tread still, but are quite a bit older and probably should only be used for display or collecting purposes.  I also have a set of four original14" hubcaps, which the previous owner had left in the trunk. I think the car would look even better and more original with the hubcaps and while walled tires.  A set of 14" steel wheels should not be too hard to find.

This very nice and attractive classic car does not need much, if anything at all and is ready to go as a great and enjoyable driver.  You are welcome to come and inspect the car for yourself and appreciate it.  A copy of the older - but original -  build sheet found in the car will also be included!  This gorgeous automobile is attractively and reasonably priced and has an easily attainable and equally reasonable reserve as well.

This older restored Mopar - First year of the Dodge Dart - is well worth the investment and will be a very nice and smart addition to any car collection. You would be hard pressed to find AND restore a car at this price level and enjoy if immediately as a really cool driver that you can take to cruises, car shows, etc. 

A $520 non-refundable deposit is due immediately upon the end of the auction payable via PayPal, with the remaining balance due within 48 hours via Bank Wire.  Car is sold as-is, sale is final with no return or refund.  Buyer is responsible for all transportation and pick-up arrangements and associated costs to their location.  Vehicle must be picked up within seven to ten days after the end of the auction.  Extra time may be made available if necessary depending on the buyer's needs such as exporting.

Thank you for looking and happy bidding!

Marchionne on Alfa's US return, Dodge Dart's powertrain weakness and minivan plans

Fri, 18 Jan 2013

As a reporter covering an auto show, the one opportunity you never want to miss is going to the Sergio Marchionne press briefing.
"This undertaking to bring Alfa back is a one-shot deal... We are not going to do this twice."
There just aren't that many real characters left in the auto industry. Marchionne, who sits atop both Chrysler and Fiat, is not only one of the smartest execs in the business, but also the most frank. Herein, a sample of the quotable always-sweatered executive:

Dodge launches 1 of 1 Viper configurator

Fri, Apr 17 2015

Get comfortable because you might be spending a good chunk of time in front of the computer on this. The configurator for the 2015 Dodge Viper GTC 1 of 1 is now online, and it's a ton of fun to play around with. Mechanically, the GTC is just like every current Viper with a 645-horsepower, 8.4-liter V10. But for the special editions Dodge lets buyers tinker with practically everything aesthetic thing. For the exterior alone, the choices include some 8,000 available body colors, two stripe styles in innumerable shades, two hood designs and various brake caliper hues. Plus, there are 16 upholstery colors inside, and options like red seat belts and carbon fiber trim. Dodge reckons there are over 25 million possible combinations, and the models are available to customers on a first-come-first serve basis for each model year. Although, two people wanting identical cars seems pretty unlikely. The configurator is a beauty too. It makes all of these myriad options extremely easy to pick from, and there are even four resolution settings to see your creation in the best possible way. Prices for the GTC start at $94,995 and deliveries are set to start in the second quarter of the year. Although, even if you have no intention of buying one, specifying these custom coupes is still highly entertaining.

Chrysler readying Hellcat V8 with Viper-like power

Tue, 21 May 2013

A monstrous supercharged V8 engine could be in store for Chrysler and SRT products, if recent rumors are to be believed. Allpar is reporting that the forced-induction V8 - Chrysler's first, if this goes down - could make its debut this summer.
The story goes that the Hellcat would be based on a 6.2-liter Hemi engine, rather than on the existing 5.7- or 6.4-liter versions of the company's vaunted mill. In any case, the general consensus is that the motor will have gobs of power. Modest estimates call for between 500 to 570 horsepower, with some outliers predicting a figure as high as 600 hp. That figure would put the output would place the Hellcat awfully close to that of the 640-hp V10 in the SRT Viper, too. Allpar contends that a slightly lower powered version would allow Chrysler to keep costs below that of the more powerful Ford Shelby GT500, which might be a sweet spot.
The Hellcat could debut in a number of SRT products. SRT versions of the Charger, Challenger and 300 are all up for grabs, as is the rumored SRT Barracuda.
