This vehicle has an interesting story to go along with it. The car was found under a fig tree where it had been sitting for 30 or so years. The tree had to be cut away to even see the car. Bees had made a hive inside the left side of the trunk but the bees have all been removed and the hive is gone. The only thing left is the rusty trunk floor and left quarter.

This vehicle needs a total restoration and is mostly complete, missing only a few things.The car does have some rusty parts and dents in a few places. I put an electric fuel pump on the car to see if it would start and it did. It smoked for a little while but it went away and the car seems to run really good. The driveshaft is not in the car( it is in the trunk), so I have not driven the car, the push buttons for the transmission seem to be stuck in reverse (the trans is turning when the engine is running) so that will need to be addressed as well. I have not pulled the carpet back to see what the floors look like but I will if you need pics of those areas. I took as many pics as I could so you could see all the areas. The frame rails look to be in good shape, all the glass is in good shape, I haven't noticed any dents in the trim except for the broken 300 medallions on the rear quarters. The bumpers will need to be stripped and rechromed. I have another right door that is complete that will go with the car (in case you don't want to fix the dent in the current door). The taillights are broken as is the left taillight trim. All the pics of the underside of the car show only surface rust that may/may not be an issue to clean up. When I took the pics the car was running so I took a pic of the instrument panel. The charging system was working, the oil pressure was up and the temp gauge was working. I did replace the water pump and I put a used starter in the car so it would run without any problems. The fuel line is not hooked up and the brake master cylinder is empty. I do not know the condition of the fuel tank but I would bet it needs replacing. 

I have a number of parts that go with the car: One extra door glass, the bumper jack, one horn, the door previously mentioned, water pump pulley, two outer mirrors, one ashtray, 6 boxes that contain seals and springs for the wheel cylinders, the "Chrysler" plate for the left front fender, an extra hood latch, an extra trunk latch, two misc pieces for an instrument panel and a front turn signal housing. I also have a push button mechanism for the dash (transmission i believe).

Please ask any and all questions before you bid, also if you need/want pictures of any other area that I did not cover let me know and I will post them for you.

Car has a clean/clear title. Car is being offered as is without any warranty expressed or implied. 

THE AREA WHERE THE NUMBERS ARE STAMPED HAS AN "S" ON IT. I LOOKED THAT "S" UP AND IT MAY BE THAT THIS ENGINE WAS A WARRANTY REPLACEMENT ENGINE.

Wards names its 2015 10 Best Interiors list

Fri, Apr 17 2015

Wards Automotive has named the winners of its 10 Best Interior awards, covering a wide but affordable array of vehicles. Where last year's list contained two six-figure vehicles, including the $372,800 Rolls-Royce Wraith, this year's is, well, a whole lot more reasonable. The publication lists the Mercedes-Benz C400 at $65,000 (which seems off), making it the most expensive vehicle here. That said, we'd argue that the entire C-Class line deserves to make this year's list, owing to its varied and high-quality selection of materials. The other vehicle to break the $60,000 mark, meanwhile, is the $60,675 Ford F-150 King Ranch, which has 327,000 pounds of leather lining its interior. Only one other German car, the BMW i3, and one other pickup truck, the GMC Canyon, managed to make this year's list. Here's the full list of this year's winners: 2014 BMW i3 ($52,550) 2015 Chrysler 300C Platinum ($51,175) 2015 Ford F-150 King Ranch ($60,675) 2015 GMC Canyon SLT ($40,465) 2015 Honda Fit EX-L ($21,590) 2015 Jeep Renegade Limited ($33,205) 2015 Kia Sedona SXL ($43,295) 2016 Mazda6 Grand Touring ($33,395) 2015 Mercedes C400 ($65,000) 2015 Nissan Murano SL ($41,905) See what we mean about the mainstream vehicles? Not only is there a distinct lack of luxury brands, it's the price of some of the vehicles that surprise. The Honda Fit, Jeep Renegade and Mazda6 are very reasonably priced, especially when you compare Wards price with the starting price. The Renegade Limited starts at less than $25,000, the Mazda at less than $22K and the Fit at under $16,000. Head over to Wards for a more detailed explanation of why each vehicle won.

2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat revealed [UPDATE]

Wed, 13 Aug 2014

Almost immediately after we drove the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, we began wondering: what's next? Pumping 707 horsepower into the Challenger seemed so crazy - and so intoxicating - we just assumed that Dodge would try that trick again.
Rumors swirled about a Charger Hellcat. Frankly it makes even more sense than the Challenger version. The Charger is a bigger car, and Dodge has never been shy about dropping monster engines under its hood. Hell (cat), we've seen Charger mules running around town that appeared to be the super sedan.
And finally, it's here. The 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat was revealed today at a preview event near Detroit, and it will be a centerpiece of the Chrysler display this weekend at the Woodward Dream Cruise.

Automakers donating money, vehicles and supplies to Oklahoma tornado relief effort

Fri, 24 May 2013

Judging by the destruction the Oklahoma City area experienced earlier this week, residents are going to need a lot of help in coming months. Fortunately, a number of automakers - including General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Volkswagen, Honda and Toyota - have stepped up to donate money, supplies and vehicles to aid in the recovery and rebuilding processes.
Here's a quick rundown of which automakers have pitched in and what each contributed so far:
Ford Motor Company has donating $250,000 and a Transit Connect to the American Red Cross, and it will match all other donations made to the Red Cross (up to $250,000) using a special URL tied to the latter's website (link here). Additionally, its local Oklahoma dealers have thrown in an extra $150,000 for the United Way and the automaker will be offering an extra $500 toward the purchase of a new Ford vehicle.
