for sale at NO RESERVE  is a all original  factory air conditioned v8 powered 1972 dodge dart swinger with 50234 original miles, This car is a climate controlled garage find which is much nicer than a barn find and it is in immaculate shape with all the original rust free body panels in 100 percent original paint. I purchased this car in Jan of this year through a friend of a friend in North Carolina. the car was purchased 10 years earlier from a climate controlled garage in ny state it has had 8 thousand miles put on it since it was moved to its Carolina home,,,it is hard to believe this car is originally from ny state due to the shape this car is in. I own several older mopar muscle cars and this is by far the cleanest most original old mopar I have ever owned.from looking at the bottom of this car you can see that this car has never seen any salt,it is factory undercoated and it looks as if it was never even in the rain. The car has all it's original driveline original exhaust system shocks etc, it now has new 14 inch radial tires on the factory rims with ply dog dish caps and beauty rings, I was gonna put some cragars on it but figured I would leave the rim selection to the new owner. I have the original hubcaps in perfect shape that were on the car with the old bias ply tires,(tires are gone now) but it still retains the factory bias ply spare that is brand new looking and jack that have never been out of the trunk,,the lug wrench has never been on a lug nut as the black paint is unscratched,The 318 motor runs perfect with no noise at all and the trans shifts as it should perfect also. I just put it on the road and had it inspected and the man who inspected it was amazed at the original shape this car is in under hood has all the factory chalk marks and you can see that nothing has ever been messed with,I replaced the windshield as it was cracked when I got it  but the rest of the glass is original tinted glass with no scratches in any of the windows the factory rubbers around the doors and trunk are still soft as are the cat whiskers and there is no air noise when driving this car down the road at speed  The original trunk mat is like new as is the paint in the trunk If I did not have 5 other sweet cars I would not even think about selling this car, as I said it is the sweetest original car I have owned. The few things that this car has wrong with it are aprox 4- 5 minor dings from parking lot mishaps which are barely noticeable. the grille is missing a small piece that you cant see unless you lay on the ground and look up at it. the air condition is all there in and out and I am sure if you put a shot of Freon in it it would blow ice cold. All the lights burn the gauges all  work except the speedo needle is all the way at 120 but the odometer works fine.  this car basically needs nothing to take to cruises or shows and if I were to keep it I would put a set of wheels on it and be done with it. You really need to see this car to believe it it is in amazing shape. The interior has one tiny slice in the top of  front seat about 1 in  long barely noticeable and it has one very tiny whole in the headliner along with a couple fine cracks in the dash pad. The  door panels are like new and I replaced the carpet due to someone had greasy shoes on it and as sweet as the rest of the interior is there was no sense leaving the dirty carpet in the car it has a brand new correct carpet from classic industries I also replaced the vinyl top with a new legendary top due to the old top was starting to crack from the 40 plus years. If you are looking for a dart swinger I honestly feel that you will not find one in nicer original shape than this car here and if this car is not all I claim it is when you come to pick it up I will gladly refund your down payment. Don't miss out on a time capsule as these cars are getting hard to come by in this shape and if you ever been to a car cruise and seen that one car that you cant believe how nice of shape its in..This is that car. I am offering it without reserve  at a starting bid that most people have in there paintjob. you need to do nothing but enjoy it fly in and drive it home. any questions please call eastern time 9-9 thanks Joe 7167068714 and I reserve the right to end this vehicle sale at any time as it is for sale locally as well as other venues.I am sure I have forgot some things and I want to be as honest as I can about this car so ask all questions before you bid.   it is cruise ready now and I have got so many compliments on this car the few times I have had it out I have my doubts about selling it as I know I will never come across one in this shape again

China own a Detroit automaker? Would the U.S. let that happen?

Tue, Aug 15 2017

The news that several Chinese automakers want to buy Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, and that one has even made an offer, elicits some mixed feelings. On one hand, as some have pointed out, it could be a win-win both for China and for FCA's American workers, ensuring the company's survival and opening new markets. On the other hand, this is China, whose trade relationship with the U.S. is the source of considerable scrutiny from the Trump administration — and whose not-a-friend, not-an-enemy status is particularly difficult to gauge right now during heightened tensions with its client state North Korea. So would such a deal pass regulatory muster? One reason that springs to mind for blocking any sale has to do with national security. Chrysler's role as a military supplier dates back to Dodge trucks used by Gen. Blackjack Pershing to chase Pancho Villa in Mexico, and shortly thereafter by American forces in World War I. The Detroit Three automakers were, of course, mainstays of the Arsenal of Democracy of World War II. Even before U.S. entry into the war in December 1941, America's industrial machinery went into overdrive, and Chrysler was one of the biggest cogs. It engineered and built the M3, Sherman and Pershing tanks and trucks for Gen. George Patton's Redball Express. It helped develop a radar-guided antiaircraft gun that knocked German bombers and V1 rockets out of the sky — on one day, shooting down 97 of 101 V1s headed for London. On D-Day, the radar system helped thwart Luftwaffe counterattacks on the beaches of Normandy, and it later helped Allied forces break out at the Battle of the Bulge. Chrysler redesigned the Wright Cyclone engines used by the Boeing B-29 Superfortress, the plane that firebombed Tokyo and dropped the atomic bombs that ended the war. Chrysler even played a secret role refining uranium in Oak Ridge, Tenn., that was used in the Hiroshima bomb and in the ensuing Cold War arms race. It worked on military missiles and was NASA's prime contractor for the Saturn V rocket that put men on the moon. More recently, Chrysler produced the M1 Abrams tank. And of course Chrysler is the keeper of the flame for Jeep, a 75-plus-years military legacy handed down from Bantam and Willys to Kaiser to AMC to Chrysler. The point of this history lesson is to note that in times of war or national emergency, America's industrial might has been called to serve, and may well be called on again.

Performance doesn't matter anymore, it's all about the feel

Wed, Aug 24 2022

We've just had a week of supercars and high-end EVs revealed. Many of them boast outrageous performance specs. There were multiple vehicles with horsepower in the four-figure range, and not just sports cars, but SUVs with 0-60 mph times under 3.5 seconds. And it's not just a rarified set of supercar builders, comparatively small tuners are also building this stuff. Going fast is easy nowadays and getting easier. So what will distinguish the greats from the wannabes? It's all about how a car feels. This may seem obvious. "Of course it matters that a car should have good steering feel and a playful chassis!" you say. "Why are you being paid for this stuff?" But a lot of automakers have missed the memo. This past week I spent some time in a BMW M4 Competition convertible, and it's a perfect example of prioritizing performance over experience. It boggles my mind how a company can create such dead and disconnected steering; the weight never changes, there's no feel whatsoever. The chassis is inflappable, but to a fault, because it doesn't feel like anything you're doing is difficult or exciting. The car is astoundingly fast and capable, but it feels less like driving a car and more like tapping in a heading on the Enterprise-D. I also happened to drive something of comparable performance that was much more enjoyable: a Mercedes-AMG GT. It was a basic model with the Stealth Edition blackout package, and even though it had a twin-turbo V8 instead of a six-cylinder, it only made 20 more horsepower. The power wasn't the big differentiator, it was (say it with me) the feel. While not the best example, the steering builds resistance as you dial in lock, giving you a better idea of what's happening up front. Pulses and vibrations come back to you as you move over bumpy pavement in corners. The chassis isn't quite as buttoned down, either, providing a little bit of body roll that tells you you're pushing it. It's also easier to feel when the car is wanting to understeer or oversteer, and how your throttle and steering inputs are affecting it. The whole thing is much more involving, exciting and fun. 2021 Mercedes-AMG GT Stealth Edition View 8 Photos That's also to say nothing of the Merc's sounds. That V8 is maybe not the best sounding engine, but its urgent churn through the opened-up exhaust gets your heart racing. It also seems like it's vibrating the whole cabin, so you feel it as much as you hear it.

The Walter P. Chrysler Museum is shutting down permanently this December

Thu, Nov 10 2016

It is with disappointment that we report the Walter P. Chrysler Museum in Auburn Hills, MI, will be closed down permanently at the end of this year. The museum, which closed in 2012 after not being able to cover costs, was recently reopened to the public on alternating weekends starting in June, but Chrysler made the decision to shutter it altogether after its final day of operation on December 18, 2016. The reason for this is primarily because FCA needs more office space, and the company decided to convert the museum for that purpose. The the cars will be moved to storage after the closure, and they'll be shown at various events. However, they'll only be able to be seen together for two more weekends. Those weekends include those of November 19 and 20, and December 17 and 18. The museum will be open from 10 am to 4 pm on those days. If you can, we highly recommend visiting the museum. Adults get in for $10, seniors and retired FCA employees for $8, kids between 6 and 17 for $6, and kids under 5 for free. It also has some fantastic cars including concepts from the 1950s to the 2000s, oddball performance vehicles such as the Omni GLH-S, and of course plenty of fascinating history. And if it makes any difference to you, there's even a purple Plymouth Prowler you can sit in. Just make sure you don't wait too long to make up your mind about visiting. Related Video:
