1966 Dodge Coronet We Code Police/fleet Car on 2040-cars
Spokane, Washington, United States
Unavailable for public purchase, the WE series cars were fleet vehicles sold to police departments and insurance companies. Production was very low and few survive as a result of years of these strippers being used as parts cars for the sexier models. But with the recent uptick in popularity of base models and strippers, this ultra-stripper should be a great restoration candidate. Its nearly rust-free condition should be attractive to any enthusiast, and with only 39,000 original miles, it is a true survivor that should require less than normal restoration investment to make this a real standout car.
I traced this car to Libby, Montana, and upon contacting the City, County, and police departments, was unable to confirm if this was indeed one of their cars, (basically, they never got back to me on promises to "look into it") ... but the City did dissolve their police dept. in 1967 to use County services and this may explain the car's low miles and civilian end use. More investigation might get a hard answer, but I will leave this for a future owner to push. Options appear to be limited to basic radio, tinted glass, and 15" wheels, the latter perhaps part of the fleet package ? I won't get all flowery telling you how "awesome" this car is like so many other ebay sellers. Anyone who knows B-body knows how special this beast is. It is a barn find, not driven since 1979. It has 39,830.4 original miles and the transmission interior and rear end reflect a very low miles car. It needs a little TLC, but it is all there, very unmolested original, and VERY restorable. Wheels were blasted and repainted and the car sits on brand new, high quality radials. Feel free to ask any specific questions. I am selling this car with bill of sale, as I have lost the title. Potential buyers are invited to inspect this car in person. Winning bidder is expected to make 100% payment of winning bid within 10 business days of auction end. Pickup shall be arranged to happen within 30 days of auction end, unless other arrangements are agreed to by seller. Cash, or cashier's check are acceptable payment methods. Buyer is responsible for pickup or shipping from point of sale. Car is for sale locally and auction will be cancelled if sold locally first. I encourage all interested buyers to contact me directly for an honest description to any questions you might have I am available most any time between 8:00am and 8pm PST. 509 . 953 . 4150 |

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.

Fiat brand chief reassigned then resigns amid flagging sales
Tue, Oct 13 2015Jason Stoicevich was replaced as head of the Fiat brand in North America just the other day. He was immediately reassigned to another job within Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. But according to Automotive News, Stoicevich quit the new job – and the company altogether – the very next day. The development comes amidst flagging sales for the Fiat brand in America. The introduction of the awkward-looking 500L multi-purpose vehicle has been largely regarded as a sales disaster in the US. Despite having just introduced the new 500X into the growing crossover market, and an overall upward trend across FCA group sales, the Fiat brand's figures have been dropping all year. While the Italian brand's volume has fluctuated from month to month compared to last year's sales, the number of cars its dealers sells on an average day has been firmly in decline. Fiat's downward trend reflects a general tendency in the market towards larger vehicles at the expense of smaller ones. However, the powers that be in Auburn Hills evidently felt that a change of leadership was in order, so it placed Dodge chief Tim Kuniskis in charge of all the company's mass-market passenger-car brands – namely Dodge, Chrysler, and Fiat – and moved Stoicevich to running the group's fleet and small-business operations. Stoicevich remained in charge of the company's California Business Center, but it seems as though he was as dissatisfied with the switch as his superiors were with the performance of the brand over which he presided, and so he apparently elected to step down and leave the company.
