Up for sale is a beautiful 1953 Dodge Coronet. Engine is the original 241 cu. In. Red Ram Hemi with factory dual point distributor, 6 volt system and Gyromatic transmission. Running gear and brakes are in great working order with 97k miles on the car. The car was resprayed some time ago in the factory color of Esquire Red. The overall condition of this car is great considering that it is original and appears to have been taken care of fairly well. Car is very reliable and can be driven daily. There is an oil change sticker in the door jamb that states 89k miles in 1973. There is another from southern California. I can make out 195’ something so it may have been from out there originally. It was in Sioux City Iowa when I found it. The steering and overall chassis are original. The car wanders a bit but drives fine otherwise. The interior is complete however needs restored. The dash board and steering wheel are complete and in really good condition. All of the dash lights work and dim when the panel light is adjusted. Gauges work. Fuel gauge doesn't read correctly. Heater, defroster and original two speed electric wipers all work. Glove box is fine. The radio turns on but is not working. This car has factory front and rear speakers both of which are still in the car. Headliner is there. The interior light is there and works. The front seat upper has a cover over the original material and is very old and torn. The upholstery on the lower section of the front seat is coming apart. The rear is original as well and in good general shape with some old mineral stains and small areas that are torn. Car has original seat belts up front and aftermarket belts at the rear seat. The driver’s side door glass is cracked but whole. The rest of the glass is in good general condition. All four door windows roll up and down cleanly. Trunk has the original hounds tooth mat made from a weave material and is stained. The spare tire is an old Allstate Cushion tubeless wide white wall 7.10-15 tire and in really good condition. The original jack is present as well. The exterior trim, bumpers and grill are all complete. There is pitting in some of the chrome, the bumpers have some surface rust, scratches and general use marks from 61 years of service however are very straight. The side trim is complete and so are the various emblems and hood ornament. The car has some rust in the front passenger floor up around the body mount. Somebody did a repair on the driver’s side that isn’t impressive. Both of these spots are from a leaky cowl vent and rubber floor mats over the 61 year life of the car. Otherwise the car is very solid including the trunk and spare tire well. This car isn’t perfect or close and has various dings, blemishes, scratches, chips, etc. that would be normal on an original 61 year old driver. Overall this is a very classic 1950s Americana piece. It’s been fantastic for cruising and general hopping around. This car puts more smiles on faces than I can explain.
Title is clear, in my name and registered here in Florida. This vehicle is being sold as is, where is with no warranties or guarantees offered or implied. Sale is final, buyer is liable for any shipping. Please ask any questions you may have. The car is available locally (Fort Myers, FL) for in person inspections. I require a $1000. Non Refundable Deposit within 48 hours of the auction ending. The balance will be paid in full before the car leaves or sits on a trailer. No exceptions. I will hold the car up to a month with proper communication. |

Dodge delaying Challenger Hellcats ordered with satin black hood [UPDATE]
Tue, Dec 16 2014The new Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat is one of the most formidable muscle cars on the planet. And it looks the part, too – especially with the optional satin black hood. But if you were one of the first customers to place an order for the 707-horsepower Mopar muscle car and specified the black hood on the options sheet, you may have to wait awhile. According to members of the Hellcat.org forum cited by Car and Driver, deliveries of certain Challenger Hellcats have been delayed without explanation. When these fanatic customers started looking into the issue, they realized that all of the delayed orders shared one thing in common: they all had ordered their Dodges with that optional black hood. Although an exact reason wasn't specified, those who ordered the black hood on their Challenger coupes were told that delivery was being pushed back to February. But some were reportedly informed by their local dealership that things could be moved along if they switched their order to a body-colored hood instead. It's not clear if the issue is a supplier problem, a paint booth issue at the factory, or something else entirely. We've reached out to Dodge for clarification, and will update this story when we hear back. UPDATE: Reached for comment, a Dodge spokesperson confirmed to Autoblog that the satin black hood "is not currently available for production" and that customers who ordered it "can opt to change their order to a body-color hood" or otherwise have their orders delayed until the option becomes available at a later date to be confirmed.
Dodge to sell off first Challenger SRT Hellcat for charity
Sun, 27 Jul 2014
Want to get your hands on a new 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, and can't wait to be the first to get one? Las Vegas will be the place to be on September 27. That's where Barrett-Jackson will auction off the very first example. And you'd better bring your checkbook, because the bidding is sure to be fierce with all the proceeds going to charity.
The supercharged Challenger with VIN 0001 has been hand-painted in Stryker Red (usually reserved for the Viper) and features special badging, documentation and accompanying memorabilia - not to mention, of course, that 707-horsepower, 6.2-liter supercharged Hemi V8. The car will be on display this weekend as well at Barrett-Jackson's Hot August Nights auction in Reno.
Dodge rolls out Shaker package for 2015 Challenger
Mon, Feb 16 2015Having an awesome Hemi engine under the hood can deliver impressive performance, but for those who lament not being able to see that big V8 engine doing its thing, hidden away under the hood, Dodge offers the Shaker hood on its Challenger muscle car.

Now available on two engines and three trim levels – including the Challenger R/T and R/T Plus with the 5.7-liter V8 and the 6.4-liter Challenger 392 – the new Shaker hood brings cold air into the engine compartment and lets everyone see that V8 (or at least an appendage thereof) shaking away in plain view. Arriving 45 years after the original Shaker Challenger, the package includes a satin black hood scoop, cold-air intake, conical air filter and optimized air box, along with Shaker graphics inside, out and under the hood. The 2015 Dodge Challenger R/T Shaker and R/T Plus Shaker are available to order now, priced at $35,495 and $38,495, respectively (plus a $995 destination charge), and come bundled with the Super Track Pak. Order books open in March for the 392 HEMI Shaker, which also comes with the Scat Pack, for $42,495 (plus destination and $1,000 gas-guzzler tax if equipped with the manual transmission).
