It's not a 'professional' build like for ex: Mr. Norms 5.7 Cuda conversions. Here it is! A very tasteful brainstorm idea to take an SRT-8 Challenger and bring in alot of custom and 71-original touches to pay tribute the '71 Cuda! Let me start by saying that I have enjoyed doing all of this and wish to continue to do so (one in every color if I had my way) - I am putting this one up for sale, but by no means is it a 'fire-sale', so please don't bother with offers. Additionally, those who view this vehicle/auction and are diehard modern Challenger or old-school Cuda enthusiasts and think this is a travesty - move on....I do not need negative comments. And yes, I know it is a Challenger and will always be a Challenger - it doesn't have 71-correct quarter panel bodylines, I know Plymouth is no longer around, I know there is no such thing as a 'Dodge' Cuda, etc etc. I've heard it all and I know all that is DIFFERENT between this and an actual '71 Cuda. I have owned several 70-74 Cudas and I enjoyed them - I also think the modern Challenger is just a plain all-out COOL car 'out-of-the box'! I love both eras and this was a compromise to have the best of both worlds without breaking the bank or having to keep one of them in storage. Small backstory on this beauty.....I bought this SRT out of Texas when it was 1.5 yrs old from a gentleman who used it for (of all things) - a commuter car! So, it had almost 31k true highway miles on it. I have only put 4k miles on it since and has been 'caught' in the rain just once. Needless to say, always stored and never seen bad weather is the case here! I think this car is cool as h*ll, and I hope since you're reading this far into it, that you think it's just as cool. However, I didn't put it up for sale so that I can give up all the details involved with the project to help you swipe ideas, or list out suppliers I've used or how I fabricated something. Buy-It-Now price is firm as I said. Not interested in trades except for partial trade on the following: SRT8 Challengers in B5 Blue, Detonator Yellow, Plum Crazy Purple or possibly Green w/Envy. The sale is AS-IS, no warranty offered or available. Deposit is non-refundable and timelines of the sale WILL be strictly adhered to. If you can't complete the sale, don't start the purchase. Have funds ready to go! NO DREAMERS or WINDOW SHOPPERS. A serious buyer leaves a deposit and follows through, no viewings just because 'youre close' to where the car is and have a Saturday to come over and daydream. Vehicle runs and drives just as it should and has NEVER been beaten or raced - (it only looks like it's been a racer - lol.) - I am in my mid-40s and previous owner was in his early 50s, so it wasn't driven like it was stolen. Spirited driving only. Vehicle is used and expect imperfections as such, (but it doesn't win trophies without being in beautiful condition!) Thanks for looking and good luck in your search....if you're searching for unique - you found it. Please keep inquiries from serious BUYERS only! Will work with transporters, exporters welcome!

How good would this look as a Dodge? New Peugeot 408 is a cool EV crossover coupe
Wed, Jun 22 2022Americans have long lusted after the forbidden fruits of the automotive markets: Vehicles offered elsewhere but not sold here in the United States. When Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, former parent to Jeep, Chrysler, Dodge, and others, joined forces with PSA (Peugeot and others), there was hope that Americans could get hold of some quirky French cars as part of the deal. That hasn’t happened, at least not yet. As it turns out, Europeans get just as many boring crossovers as we do, though Peugeot thinks it has a solution with the new 408, an aerodynamic compact crossover with style for days. While we seriously doubt a rebadged 408 would ever show up on our shores, it's easy to imagine how a vehicle looking something like this on the same electrified platform could spawn a viable product for the American market. Squint a bit and "new electric Dodge Intrepid" comes to mind. Perhaps it shouldn't be surprising that France would come out with a new vehicle that seems well-matched to the American market. Utility vehicles made up 46% of new vehicle sales in France in May, matching the sales numbers of sedans in the country. PeugeotÂ’s banking on the fact that many people want the space and usability of a compact SUV but tire of the styling and ubiquity of the vehicle type. The fastback shape provides a more dramatic design look without completely sacrificing the characteristics that make SUVs so popular. Peugeot offers a traditional SUV in the 3008, but the 408 is sleeker and more aerodynamic. The automaker says that the 408 “offers a feline stance and unique allure, engineering excellence focused on efficiency and intelligent electrification, as well as the emotions provided by cutting-edge technologies dedicated to driving pleasure and instinctive use." Two plug-in hybrid powertrains will be offered first, producing 180 and 225 horsepower. A standard gas model will also be available with a 130-horsepower engine. All variants get an eight-speed gearbox, and Peugeot says an electric model will come later. No Stellantis brand in the United States currently offers a purely electric vehicle. Peugeot will build the 408 at its plant in Mulhouse, France, for the European market. The vehicle will go on sale early in 2023 and will later become available in China. Related video: Featured Gallery 2023 Peugeot 408 Green Green Dodge Citroen Crossover Future Vehicles
Marchionne may stay with FCA until 2020
Mon, Aug 31 2015We might get to see Sergio Marchionne and his vast array of sweaters in the auto industry for even longer than expected. The FCA CEO suggested last year that he would retire from the automaker when its current five-year plan was complete in 2018. Now, he has tentatively extended that point out to at least 2020. "I can do this for another five years if you push me, right? Beyond that, I ain't gonna do it, and I don't want to," he said to Automotive News. That would give Marchionne a 16-year career at the top from joining Fiat in 2004 to possibly leaving FCA in 2020. Although, take the CEO's statement with a grain of salt because he has made multiple statements about the timing for his retirement. In 2012, Marchionne said he would only remain in charge until 2015, which is, well, now. Those five years might also go quite quickly because Marchionne is a busy guy with the Ferrari IPO, the attempted merger with General Motors, implementing FCA's five-year plan, and many other projects. He's already considering the next CEO, though. "My purpose in life is to find the Kuniskises of the world, the Manleys, the Biglands, the Palmers," Marchionne said to Automotive News, referencing the heads at Dodge, Jeep, FCA North America, and the company's chief financial officer, respectively. "I told them, 'One of you is going to do what I do one day. I don't know who that is, but one of you is going to do it.'"

Chrysler recalling over 280k minivans because airbags may deploy on wrong side
Mon, 08 Jul 2013Chrysler has issued a recall for some 2013 Town & Country, Dodge Grand Caravan and Ram C/V Tradesman vans built between May 10, 2012 and June 7, 2013. These vehicles may have a software error that would cause the wrong side (opposite side) airbags to deploy in a crash. With this defect, a left-side impact would cause the right-side airbag to deploy, etc.
The recall affects 281,500 vehicles in total: 224k in the US, 49,300 in Canada, 2,900 in Mexico and 5,300 in other locations. Chrysler will notify owners of effected vehicles, and reflash the offending occupant restraint control module to resolve the issue.
