Nice solid '61 Dart Seneca, 4 door sedan, 225 cid slant six runs excellent, no smoke, runs very clean, exhaust is a little loud, Torqueflite 3 speed auto tranny shifts very well, carb has been thoroughly cleaned, original gas tank is in fantastic shape, it's been cleaned and sealed, along with a new sending unit gasket and float installed, ethanol treatment, lead additive and octane boost used in the gasoline, installed a new master cyl and two front brake hoses for the brakes, did a brake bleed and nice clean fluid throughout, brakes work very good, all lines are solid, car is a southern car and very solid underneath, the floors are excellent, no holes or patches, fenders are very nice, no filler, solid doors, rockers, doglegs, bottom of passenger side quarter panel has some rot, and the driver's side bottom quarter has been fixed before. Trunk floor is original and does have a few small holes, as seen in the pics. Lip where weather strip is is very solid, as is the trunklid and roof. Glass is all good, interior is decent, beautiful original headliner, dash is faded and has some pitting on the chrome parts, door panels are fair, but hanging in there. Rear seat is original and not too bad, does have a couple of splits, front seat is torn up a bit, hence the seat cover. Car was originally LL1 Silver-grey metallic, but was repainted years ago in a charcoal grey metallic. It buffed up pretty good, but it could use a fresh coat. The car has manual brakes, manual steering, and the only options it has is a radio, torqueflite, and a day/nite mirror. My apologies for the horrible looking rims that are on it, I do not have the originals. These rims would be better suited for a car trailer in my opinion, but they'll get the job done. It runs very nice, and it does drive very well, but it's not ready for a road trip yet. Before a long distance drive is in order, I would suggest the hubs be pulled to check the wheel cylinders, and I would suggest a carb re-build and a fresh set of tires. Very hard to find these cars in this condition anymore. Most of them rusted shortly after they were new. Any questions, just ask. and no, the red '58 is not for sale. This will make a great little driver, or it can be restored, it's your call. The milage is original on it, and it runs and drives like it as well. I've included a photo of the gas tank before it was installed back into the car, so you can see how nice it is. Also, here is a link to a couple of videos of my son driving the car. (sound quality is not that good though)

Ford Police Interceptors dominate Michigan State Police testing

Tue, Nov 1 2016

Once again, Ford Motor Company builds the fastest police vehicles. The Blue Oval touted the news in an official release following Michigan State Police and Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department testing. Ford did very well. Except for one acceleration metric – zero to 10 miles per hour Â– the Blue Oval's Taurus and Explorer-based cop cars were the quickest, with particular praise coming for the EcoBoost-powered models, which bested Chevrolet and Dodge's V8-powered variants. Dearborn's products also posted the fastest average times around MSP's vehicle dynamics course. But it wasn't all positive for Ford. The only four-cylinder in the contest, the 2.0-liter, EcoBoost Ford SSP Sedan, had both the lowest top speed, 120 mph, and the slowest acceleration figures. It was also the slowest in track testing. Ford's products also failed to match the braking and top speeds of its rivals from Detroit and Auburn Hills Â– the rear-drive Charger Pursuit posted the best braking stats of the entire test, while the V8-powered Chevrolet Caprice hit the highest top speed, at 155 mph. Ford did score a top speed award, among SUVs, but at 132 mph, the naturally aspirated Police Interceptor Utility had to share its award with the equally fast, rear-drive Chevrolet Tahoe. The LA County Sheriff's timing isn't publicly available, but according to Ford, the EcoBoost-powered police cars put on a similarly impressive show for cops on the West Coast. We've assembled a spreadsheet on Google Docs that offers an easy to browse comparison of the different stats assembled by the Michigan State Police, and divided the vehicles between standard V6-powered sedans, high-performance sedans (EcoBoost and V8 models), and SUVs. You can check it out here. Related Video:

Dodge Viper production to end after 2017

Tue, Jun 21 2016

We can't say we're surprised, but we're still saddened to report that the Dodge Viper will not live on past the 2017 model year. It's had a solid 25-year run, though, and that's worth celebrating. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles does just that for the Viper's final model year, with five special editions (some of which seem less special than others, admittedly): The 1:28 Edition ACR, GTS-R Commemorative Edition ACR, VoooDoo II Edition ACR, Snakeskin Edition GTC, and Dodge Dealer Edition ACR. Instead of running through what makes each of these 2017 Vipers special, we'll direct your attention to the press release below and the images above. All but the Dodge Dealer Edition commemorate memorable Viper models of the past 25 years, and the GTS-R is probably the pick of the litter with its classic blue-on-white paint scheme. Unless you prefer to err on the side of gaudy, in which case Dodge has you (and your car) covered with Snakeskin Green. If none of these special-edition Viper models strikes your fancy but you'd still like to park a 2017 Viper in your garage, fret not. Dodge is still offering its "1 of 1" customization program for the Viper's final year of production. Finally, instead of dwelling on the past, even when that past is as exciting as the Viper's, let's choose to look to the future with the only logical question left unanswered: What's next?

Small number of 2013 Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger models recalled

Sun, 24 Feb 2013

A small number of units of the 2013 Chrysler 200 (inset) and 2013 Dodge Avenger are being recalled over a broken control valve in the fuel tank assembly. The potential 1,785 sedans were manufactured late last year, and if affected with a broken control valve could suffer from stalling or fuel leakage.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration notes that the recall should begin next month, at which time owners can take their cars to dealers for repair free of charge. The full release with more information is just below.
