Up for auction is a 1965 Dodge Coronet 500 2 Dr. Hard Top. I based the look of the car on a Super Stock/Max Wedge Dodge. It has a 1972 440 HP Motor and a 727 Torqueflite Transmission with 8 3/4 rear-end. Car shows 62,000 on the odometer but the odometer does not work. The engine is internally stock as far as I know. Since I have had the car I put a Mopar Performance Electronic Ignition Conversion, Holley 750 cfm carb, Edelbrock RPM Intake, Headman Headers, 2 1/2 inch exhaust with Doug's Electric Exhaust Cut Outs and Flowmaster Super 44 Mufflers, rebuilt 727 with a TCI Breakaway Conv. (was planning a cam upgrade but never did it) and shift kit with B&M Shifter. Also has 4.10 Gears, Mopar Performance Super Stock Springs, Competition Drag Shocks front & rear, Drive Shaft Loop and Racing Wheel Studs front & rear as well as a Line Lock. Has a shift light tach with rev. limiter and after market gauges. Car has new brakes front & rear. Front wheels are 15x5.5 and the rear are 15x7 with new tires. Added the Fiberglass Super Stock Dodge Hood Scoop. The scoop is a replica of a 1965 Super Stock Dodge hood scoop.
The vehicle has no major rust issues. Just some surface rust under the vehicle as this is a factory non under coat car. The previous owner had a quick paint job done on it and there is some overspray and dirt in the paint. All of the stainless trim is there and is in good shape. I would say it is a good 10 footer. Interior needs to be restored, the radio does not work and it has some interior lights that do not work. Front bumper has some chrome peeling off of it. I was planning on putting on a Fiberglass front bumper and hood but never got around to it. The car runs and drives good. If it wasn't for the 4.10s I would not hesitate to take it on an extended road trip, as is it is only driven locally. It has a clear title and I have most of the receipts for the upgrades that I have done. Car has been garage kept since I have owned it. Vehicle does have the correct vintage 1965 Texas Plates on it.
The car is being sold as is and there is no warranty. Winning bidder will need to pay a $500.00 deposit within 48hrs. Complete Payment must be made within 7 days and purchaser is responsible for transportation arrangements. Happy Bidding!!

2015 Dodge Challenger Drag Pak previewed
Fri, 29 Aug 2014Dodge and Mopar have never strayed far from success in drag racing, be it on run-what-you-brung nights at the local strip or at the highest levels of the sport. Hoping to both add to that heritage and capitalize on some of the media spotlight that's shown so brightly on the brand of late, Dodge has given us our first look at the 2015 Mopar Challenger Drag Pak test car.
Though this first iteration doesn't make use of the 707-horsepower Hellcat engine, it seems to be a pretty formidable racing package. Starting with a stock '15 Challenger, Mopar adds a full roll cage built to National Hot Rod Association specs. Rubber front and back is drag racing-ready as well, with 28x4.5-inch tires in the front, and fat 30x9-inch tires out back - all from Hoosier.
Powering the beast is a massive 426-cubic-inch (7.0-liter) Hemi Race V8, with output levels that are still unspecified. A Chrysler 727 automatic transmission connects up to a racing style shift lever, with integral line lock.
Chrysler recalling 644k more Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs over brakes
Wed, 02 Apr 2014Early last month, we reported on Chrysler issuing a preemptive, proactive recall for about 25,000 units of the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango. The issue revolved around a brake system that wasn't causing any actual problems, but delivered an unsatisfactory brake feel, so Auburn Hills called in a good 25,000 of SUVs around the world, including 18,700 in the United States.
Now Chrysler, having apparently determined that the brake problem on its sport utes is actually much bigger than it initially realized, has drastically broadened the scope of the recall. As a result, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for precisely 655,354 examples of the Grand Cherokee and Durango, covering the 2011 through 2014 model years. In addition, Chrysler is recalling 42,380 units in Canada, 21,376 in Mexico and 159,685 overseas.
The problem which Chrysler found revolves around the brake booster, whose center shell has been found to be subject to corrosion, allowing water to get into the brake system. That water in turn could freeze, preventing the brakes from working as well as expected.
2013 Dodge Challenger V6 recalled for fire risk, owners asked not to drive
Sun, 17 Mar 2013Chrysler has issued a recall for the V6 version of the 2013 Dodge Challenger (as pictured above in 2012MY) over the possibility of a wiring harness that could short circuit and lead to a fire. Owners of these V6 Challengers built from November 2012 through January 2013 are being urged to contact dealers immediately and, in the meantime, not to drive their cars or park in or near any buildings.
Chrysler estimates around 2,500 potentially affected Challengers are in owners' hands, while another 1,900 are still sitting on dealer lots. The total number of recalled vehicles is 4,459.
So far, Chrysler says that seven fires have been reported - none resulting in injuries. The company is instructing vehicle owners to contact their dealer to find out if their vehicle is included in the recall, but owners can also find the build date information of their vehicle by checking the label in the driver's door jamb.
