Up for auction is a classic 1965 Dodge Coronet 440 2 Door Hardtop in very decent restorable condition or drive it as a daily driver. This car is tan in color with mostly original paint that is in daily driver condition. The car has tan cloth interior with a stock original bench seat with some front to rear tears and a back seat that is original and does not have any tears. The pictures do not show the back seat as it was out for floor cleaning of normal trash when I took the pictures. Starting at the front, grill and bumper decent but not perfect, left front fender has some damage at the front corner with some minor dents, hood has one minor ding, minor dents on the left door and left quarter panel, roof looks perfect, all glass nice condition, deck lid has no dents, rear bumper has some dents, right door and quarter panel have several small dents, minimal dents on the right front fender, some rust etching in the right front floor area, no rust through, very little rust etching in left front floor area, no rust through, left rear floor area has no rust, and right rear has some rust etching but again nothing close to rust through. The trunk floor area has some moderate rust etching and I noticed a few pin holes when I had the gas tank out for cleaning. The trunk area has been completely treated with por-15 and looks just fine. This car was sitting for over 15 years and I had to clean out the fuel system (fuel tank clean and no rust inside) rebuild the carburetor, replace some fuel hoses, minor tune-up, new timing chain, new water pump, new radiator hoses, new thermostat, rodded out radiator, new freeze plugs, and new anti-freeze.318 V-8 engine has good compression, does not smoke, but does still idle kind of rough when cold. Probably my carb rebuild but no big deal on that. This car has had the automatic transmission oil and filter replaced and works very well. All rear end seals and fluid have been replaced. New master cylinder, new wheel cylinders, new brake shoes, and the drums have been machined. Car has good tires including a spare and jack assembly. All lights work, car has factory air conditioning which seems to work ok, has a remote type left side mirror, and has a stock radio that does not work. This car was originally a power window car but none of the windows worked so I converted it to nice working original type manual windows. The interior door panels are pretty rough and will need replacing as well as the rear package tray and the carpets. I do still have most all of the original power window parts and they are available if someone wants to convert this car back to power windows. I think I have covered most every thing I can think up and if there are any questions, feel free to ask or give me a call at 408-507-4362. This car is currently registered up to date in Calif. with a current non-op title. Thanks for looking.

Dodge bringing revamped Challenger, Charger to Big Apple
Mon, 07 Apr 2014The 2014 New York Auto Show will be a big one for Dodge, as the brand has announced that refreshed versions of the 2015 Challenger and 2015 Charger will debut at the show. This is a particularly big deal for the two-door Challenger which, visually, has remained unchanged since is burst back onto the scene in 2008 and helped reignite the muscle car wars.
As a sort of hint, this announcement was accompanied by the picture you see above - the Super Bee logo in the Challenger's new instrument cluster. According to Dodge, the New York debut of a new "powertrain combination" - possibly with the high-output Hellcat V8 - will leave enthusiasts "abuzz."
As for the Charger, Dodge is promising a full redesign that should be a significant departure from the blunt, angry looks of the current model. At this point, there's no indication that the Challenger's new powertrain could be fitted to the Charger, although considering how mechanically similar these two vehicles have been, it doesn't seem outside the realm of possibility.
Dodge vs. Chevy tug-of-war taken to the extreme
Mon, 17 Dec 2012They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.
Total auto recalls already on record pace in 2014
Tue, 08 Apr 2014If you've noticed that there have been more recalls than usual this year, you may be on to something. According to a report from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the US market is on pace to break a record for recalls. In 2013, 22 million cars were recalled. We're only a third of the way through 2014, though, and we've already halved that figure, with 11 million units recalled. That's wild.
Considering the past few months, it shouldn't be a surprise that General Motors is leading the charge, with six million of the 11 million units recalled coming from one of the General's four brands. Between truck recalls, CUV recalls and the ignition switch recall, 2014 hasn't been a great year for GM.
Other recall leaders include Nissan (one million Sentra and Altima sedans), Honda (900,000 Odyssey minivans), Toyota (over one million units in a few recalls), Volkswagen (150,000 Passat sedans), Chrysler (644,000 Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs) and most recently, Ford (434,000 units, the bulk of which were early Ford Escape CUVs). So while it's been a bad year for GM so far, its competitors aren't doing too well, either.
