1958 DODGE

SWEPT WING HARD TOP


There only original once!  If there are more than twenty 1958 Dodge Swept Wing hard top’s on Earth in this original surviving condition, I would be very surprised.


Since brand new, this Dodge has only traveled 26,939 miles.   The very lucky winner will receive all the documentation meticulously recorded in two books supporting the original miles.  


This car is NOT restored, rather almost totally original.  Of course some maintenance has been performed.   The entire front end has been rebuilt, age had deteriorated bushings etc.   The brakes are new, carburetor rebuilt, the shocks are new and the tires good.


The body, chrome and glass are outstanding!  Underneath you’ll be amazed as most of these cars are long since been rusted out.   Not this one!  All the original sheet metal, frame, body supports etc. are like new.  Absolutely no patches or Bondo on this car.


The paint still holds a shine and its original.  The car has never been repainted.  However...the elderly lady who originally owned the car, opened the doors on something in the garage over and over again.  There are no dents, just lots of little chips in the paint.   The winner will receive the original color sales brochure, a copy of the original 58’ title, and current title, a hard back original 1958 Dodge maintenance book and over a $1000 of new extra parts.


Inside the car is a Time Machine.  The dash is outstandingly beautiful, and all the gauges work.  Only the clock does not.  The horns, lights, turn signals, wipers, map light, speedometer, odometer, and heater all work.  Even the cigarette lighter still works, but in over 50 years...its never lit one cigarette.


This car was a factory radio delete...and the original radio hole plugs are amazingly still in place.  The car has silky smooth factory Power Steering and a push button start 325 Cross-Over V8 engine.  It instantly fires and runs smooth as well as the Push-Button Transmission shifts effortlessly.  This car floats and drives you like you're on a cloud.


The winner can fly in and drive this car home.  It’s located in San Antonio Texas.   If you’ve got questions...I’ve got answers.  Call or write Houston Wills at 210-548-1310 between 9am-9pm CST.

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.

Kia leads J.D. Power's Vehicle Dependability Study for 2022

Thu, Feb 10 2022

For the first year ever, Kia leads J.D. Power's annual Vehicle Dependability Study with a score of 145 problems per 100 vehicles. Buick (147) and Hyundai (148) round out the top three. The highest premium brand on the list is Genesis, with a score of 148. It's common for so-called "mass market" brands to lead this particular study, according to J.D. Power, as "premium" brands "typically incorporate more technology in their vehicles, which increases the likelihood for problems to occur" and aren't necessarily built to a higher standard that less-expensive brands. The highest-rated single nameplate is the Porsche 911. It's the third time out of the past four years and the second year in a row that Porsche's quintessential sports car has taken top honors. Porsche as a brand sits in seventh place (162) just behind Lexus (159) and ahead of Dodge (166). At the very bottom of the list is Land Rover with a dismal score of 284; the SUV specialist held the same unfortunate distinction on last year's list. Ram (266), Volvo (256), Alfa Romeo (245) and Acura (244) also performed poorly. The overall industry average score sits at 192 — mass market brands average a score of 190 while premium brands sit 14 points lower at 204. While Tesla is unofficially included in some of J.D. Power's results, the agency says the sample size it has access to for this study is too small to include. As has been the case for the past several years, infotainment systems dominate the list of problems reported by owners. Popular (or unpopular, depending on your point of view) complaints include built-in voice recognition (8.3 PP100), Android Auto/Apple CarPlay connectivity (5.4 PP100), built-in Bluetooth system (4.5 PP100), not enough power plugs/USB ports (4.2 PP100), navigation systems difficult to understand/use (3.7 PP100), touchscreen/display screen (3.6 PP100), and navigation system inaccurate/outdated map (3.6 PP100). While problems with the car's infotainment and technology packages are indeed bothersome, it's important to remember that such issues aren't usually leaving owners stranded with an immovable vehicle like a broken transmission or blown engine would. Culling infotainment complaints from the results would reduce the average problem-per-100-vehicle score by a staggering 51.9 points. The vehicles included in this study are from the 2019 model year. That means owners have had three years to get to know their cars and trucks. It's the 33rd year that J.D.
