1965 dodge coronet

We wanted something different for a 2014 power tour car and found this in a building last winter. We bought it with a 2nd owner title in the grand sons name and a story of the 22,000 miles being right. I went through this car end to end top to bottom for mechanicals and was very careful not to alter the car in any way. the dirt and grease that was on it still is on it the dead wasps in the windshield all have names and are my cruising buddies. this car has not been cleaned since the 90's and won't be cleaned as long as I own it. I wanted a car to run a 2500 mile trip in the tour that looked like it was just pulled out of a barn for the ride. you can Fly in and DRIVE this one home. I have a clean and clear Kentucky title in my name and the car is plated, insured and driven.

complete new brake system  including all 4 wheel cylinders, new brake shoes, all steel lines all rubber lines, new rear drums,( front drums were reused but in great shape).and the parking brake works. the car stops great for a 4 wheel drum brake car.

motor work professionally  done  fresh full gasket kit including rear main and head gaskets there are no leaks , all freeze plugs, new cap rotor wires plugs points and condenser,  has a professionally rebuilt stromberg ww 2 bbl carb, all the motor mounts, hoses and belts are new, it has a new 3 core all aluminum radiator with a 10" electric fan, the transmission is un touched except for a fluid change and new front input seal and it shifts out great.

it has new dual exhaust from the manifolds to back of transmission and some used turbo mufflers on it sounds great but quiet. exhaust ends at axle. you do get a little exhaust smell in the car it needs tail pipes.

new wheel bearings and seals in the front all 4 ball joints are moog replacements that don't squeak like the old ones did. the steering is tight and responsive with a new pressure line and fresh fluid.

it has 4 decent tires on it. all tires hold air and are road worthy but were used. it has a rim for a spare in the trunk with the jack kit and 4 hubcaps.

it has a new fuel tank, fuel pump, fuel filter,  sending unit and fuel line. new carb see above  

the lights turn signals all that fun stuff works on the outside of the car. the interior running lights work

everything is there on this car except one piece of trim that goes on the driver's side rocker. i do not think this car has ever been apart except 1 fender was replaced in the 70's form a minor fender bender . didn't touch the grill, bumper or inner support structure. it was very minor whatever caused a fender replacement

on to the stuff that needs attention

the inside turn signal indicators do not work all the time the gas gauge does not work all the time. the Speedo jumps around some and whines sometimes ( common issue is dirt and a bad ground).the radio works but the speaker is dry rotted horribly. it needs 4 shocks . the cooling fan needs a automatic relay or temp sensor switch wired in (right now fan has a plug in that you have to manually plug in under the hood) .  

the seat covers are shot seat frames are good. the carpet is great but faded some. the head liner is gone but all the bows etc are still there to put a new one in.

the body is in over all great shape. there is a soft spot in the passenger side floor pan whir the exhaust used to run close , the front fenders need lower rear patch panels ( there $50 a side). it has 2 soft spots in the trunk floor that a dollar bill will cover. the passenger side trunk drop down needs replaced ( parts available) there is a rust spot on the outside of the pass quarter that is about 2" long from a scratch rusting, there is a 6 ft long 1/8" deep crease in the pass quarter that is real minor, the driver's side quarter needs a little love on the trunk drop down the trunk lid is rotted along the back from mouse p*ss. the car was undercoated and structurally excellent.

come by drive it. we will put it on a lift so you can check under it. I will take it to a Indy mechanic of your choosing within 50 miles for a inspection at your cost. The car is for sale locally. I reserve the right to end this auction. this is a 3 day no reserve auction. this car will NOT be re listed with a lower starting bid. $500 deposit due in 48 hours. the remainder will be paid in cash or postal money order on pick up or before releasing the car. I will help load it for free. shipping is buyers responsibility but i will be flexible and help loading. I will do whatever title work you need to transfer the clean Ky title in your state. I  can hang on to the car for up to 30 days. I can deliver the car to you within 250 miles from 41472 for $1 a mile but I am driving it there.   if you have any questions give me a call 606-495-6219 Jason G.


a close family member is ill and i am happy to sacrifice this car to help them make it day to day

Dodge Challenger R/T Shaker and Mopar '14 Challenger up the retro appeal

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

The reborn Dodge Challenger might be getting a bit long in the tooth, having been on the market in its current form since 2008, but Chrysler isn't going to give up on its brutish, full-size two-door just yet. For this year's SEMA Show, the Challenger will be getting a new Mopar edition, as well as a retro-cool shaker hood on the 5.7-liter, Hemi-equipped R/T models.
As we mentioned last night, the Shaker Package will cost $2,500, but includes the Super Track Pak (new steering rack, brake linings, upgraded shocks and 20-inch Goodyear Eagle F1 Super Car tires), a $595 option on its own. The shaker hood result in a performance bump of any kind, but the blacked-out, pop-up scoop is a nifty feature that hasn't been seen on a production car since the Ford Mustang Mach 1 in the early 2000s.
The Mopar '14 Challenger (pictured right) follows the cues of previous Mopar Editions, which have included the 2010 Challenger, 2011 Charger, 2012 300 and 2013 Dart. Only 100 Mopar '14 Challengers will be produced, and they'll include the new shaker hood, Mopar's distinctive blue graphics and wheels, and whatever is pilfered from the accessory catalog.

Mopar maneuvers into SEMA with a multitude of modified models

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

As the aftermarket and performance arm of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Mopar has a duty to extract everything from the company's models that it can, and there's no better place to show all of its work off than the annual SEMA Show.
Dodge really gets in on the act this year with several customs to show off different parts of the brand's performance heritage. Perhaps the most interesting among them is the track-prepped Viper ACR Concept (pictured above). It wears a custom body kit to produce even more downforce, thanks in no small part to a monstrous wing at the back. To shed weight, most of the interior is stripped out, as well. Next up, the Challenger T/A Concept takes inspiration from '70s Trans-Am racing in a livery of Sublime Green and matte black paint. The center scoop in the hood keeps the 6.4-liter V8 fed with cool air, and the special's 20-by-9.5-inch matte black wheels keep it planted in the corners.
Also getting the once-over from Mopar is the Charger R/T. It wears the division's body kit, and under the hood, a cold-air intake keeps the 5.7-liter V8 breathing. The suspension is retooled to hold the road better with a coil-over kit, upgraded sway bars and strut tower braces for the front and rear. The company is also showing off a snazzy blue Charger with a mean look. The final Dodge getting work from Mopar is the Dart R/T Concept with bright, O-So-Orange paint and a matte black hood with a scoop hooked directly to the air intake. The performance-oriented design is finished off with a coil-over suspension and big brake kit, as well.

2014 Dodge Durango leaks ahead of NY rollout

Wed, 27 Mar 2013

Even though Chrysler will reportedly discontinue the Dodge Durango after the current model's lifespan - said to be around 2016 - that isn't stopping the automaker from improving its full-size, three-row SUV. The vehicle won't debut at the New York Auto Show until tomorrow, but images are already leaking out ahead of the embargo lift, and they show that the 2014 model is getting even more aggressive styling to go with more technology inside and out.
Dodge limited its early press shots of the new Durango to just the R/T trim level, but this new look adds a meaner look to this model with more dramatic projector-beam headlights along with a "floating" crosshair grille and a restyled fascia. At the rear of the Durango, LED racetrack taillights show a family resemblance to the Charger and Dart, while a new rear fascia adds to the styling while also allowing for an integrated trailer hitch.
On the tech side, the instrument panel looks to have been redesigned to include a standard seven-inch thin-film transistor (TFT) gauge cluster, and it also appears as if Chrysler's well-liked UConnect system has been updated with the 8.4-inch touchscreen found in other Chrysler vehicles. The 2013 model's conventional console shifter has been replaced by a rotary knob for gear selection, suggesting that there are transmission changes afoot as well. We'll have more details when the silks slide off this big boy tomorrow, so stay tuned.
