1978 Dodge Magnum GT Coupe
Offered for sale, this very rare 1978 Dodge Magnum GT. A true GT, even though the side emblems show XE (they all started as XE's). The original fender flares, aluminum dash and other features were only found and installed on the GT model. This magnum looks a bit tired and frumpy, but overall is in fair/good shape. It is straight, solid and with no apparent body damage. The paint is tired and does not shine anymore, and is faded and deteriorated somewhat on the hood and trunk as well as the flares (the previous owner had the car in Texas). There are some rust issues - mostly surface discoloration - but there are a couple of small holes on the floor pans (behind the driver seat). The worst is on the underneath of the trunk lid near the edge at the bottom (doesn't look too nice). The t-tops are in great shape, so is the glass and the windshield. The bumpers are straight and shinny and are in good shape. All the trim, stainless and aluminum, etc. is in very good shape and is straight and does not show any damage. the rear lenses are in very nice condition and the front lenses are fair/good condition, they should/could be buffed up. The wheels are fair, but show some rust here and there (two of the original wheels are in the trunk along with the bumpers guards). The tires are so-so (show some slight dry rot and/or wear). The interior is in fair to good condition. The dash and instrument panel, steering wheel, etc. are in nice condition (there are a few small cracks on the dash pad). The door panels, hard vinyl panels, etc. are in fair to nice condition, and are all there. The seats are in fair to good shape except for the driver seat, which should either be repaired and/or reupholstered. A set of seat covers might be good enough. The carpet will need to be replaced (it was removed by the previous owner). The 360 V8 engine starts, runs and sounds as it should. The car does drive ok on short distance drives or while moving it around (I have not driven it for any distance or on the highway). The brakes feel rather soft. I would highly recommend that the car be shipped or trailered to its new destination. Overall this is a car well worth restoring, way too nice and complete to be used only as a parts car. The car is attractively priced with a low/reasonable reserve.
These B Body Magnums are truly a collector car since they were only manufactured for two years (1978 and 1979). I had purchased this GT because of its rarity and also as a spare for my other 1978 Dodge Magnum 2Dr Coupe XE which is in remarkable and excellent original condition with only 36,500 miles. This Magnum XE is also for sale as well as many extra parts (exterior trimwork, extra tail lights, interior hard vinyl panels and trim, etc., etc.) that I had aquired to have as replacement parts on hand for these rare cars. The Magnum XE and the extra parts are not a part of this aucton, but are available for purchase upon inquiry.
Please note this car will be sold on a Bill of Sale only. A $520 deposit is due immediately upon the end of the auction via PayPal with the remainder of the balance due via Bank Wire or cash in person upon pick up. The Buyer is responsible for all transportation arrangements and costs to their location. Car is sold as-is and sale is final. Thanks for looking!

Dodge offers 100 years of solid advice in new ad
Fri, 18 Apr 2014This is a cool ad. Dodge, which is celebrating its centennial this year, recruited some of its peers to see what you should and shouldn't do in life. Of course, some are obvious - don't complain, learn from your mistakes and live for now.
Then again, some are less obvious. Some, actually, are downright awesome. Towards the end, each piece of advice is interspersed with clips of Dodge's redesigned Challenger smoking its tires. Really, this ad feels like it'd be worthy of a Super Bowl spot. This commercial's personal nature is really in keeping with some of the big game's most interesting ads, like the Imported From Detroit commercial, the Farmer ad and Maserati's surprise clip from this year's game.
Take a look below and let us know what you think.
2014 Dodge Durango leaks ahead of NY rollout
Wed, 27 Mar 2013Even though Chrysler will reportedly discontinue the Dodge Durango after the current model's lifespan - said to be around 2016 - that isn't stopping the automaker from improving its full-size, three-row SUV. The vehicle won't debut at the New York Auto Show until tomorrow, but images are already leaking out ahead of the embargo lift, and they show that the 2014 model is getting even more aggressive styling to go with more technology inside and out.
Dodge limited its early press shots of the new Durango to just the R/T trim level, but this new look adds a meaner look to this model with more dramatic projector-beam headlights along with a "floating" crosshair grille and a restyled fascia. At the rear of the Durango, LED racetrack taillights show a family resemblance to the Charger and Dart, while a new rear fascia adds to the styling while also allowing for an integrated trailer hitch.
On the tech side, the instrument panel looks to have been redesigned to include a standard seven-inch thin-film transistor (TFT) gauge cluster, and it also appears as if Chrysler's well-liked UConnect system has been updated with the 8.4-inch touchscreen found in other Chrysler vehicles. The 2013 model's conventional console shifter has been replaced by a rotary knob for gear selection, suggesting that there are transmission changes afoot as well. We'll have more details when the silks slide off this big boy tomorrow, so stay tuned.
Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat vs. Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 in latest Head 2 Head
Fri, Jan 30 2015"Olympian" is one of the terms we use to signify the greatest height, the seat of the gods. Yet Mt. Olympus is the second-highest peak in the Balkans ranges, overshadowed by the crest at Musala in Bulgaria's Rila mountains. Both great heights, but one is a little higher. That's how we get the Olympian Chevy Camaro ZL1 pitched at the Musalic Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat in Motor Trend's latest episode of Head 2 Head. The side-by-side spec sheet is filled with farcical numbers. For the ZL1, that's a 6.2-liter V8 with 580 horsepower, 556 pound-feet of torque, a 4,051-pound curb weight, 0-to-60 miles per hour in 3.9 seconds, a quarter-mile time of 12.2 seconds and a base price of just $57,800. Opposing that, the Hellcat wrings out its 6.2-liter V8 for 707 hp, 650 lb-ft of torque, weighs 4,449 pounds, does the quarter in 11.7 seconds and has a base price of just $60,990. Except in the case of the Hellcat, when Motor Trend put it on the dyno the machine spit out a reading of 672 hp and 606 lb-ft at the wheels. If there's a 10-percent driveline loss through those beefed-up internals and heavy-duty eight-speed transmission, that means the Hellcat is actually rated at about 750 horsepower and 700 lb-ft. But once they get put on a closed-off strip of coast road in Northern California, there are only a few strands of hair between their respective performances. That's not the case for they sensations provide; host Jonny Lieberman calls one of them, "One of the most incredible cars ever made," and says, "It changes everything." Watch the video above to see who got the verdict and how. Related Video:
