1970 Dodge Coronet 440 4 Door
I have owned this 70 Coronet since March 2004. I have worked on it and stored it on and off over the last 9+ years and now I have bought a 1970 Coronet convertible and a new 2012 Dodge Charger. Time for someone else to enjoy the 70 Coronet 4 Door. When I first got the car, it had a lot of water leaks in the trunk, I repaired all of them (mostly lack of seam sealer after a quick re-paint). I repaired a bad wheel bearing, replaced all 4 drum brakes, rebuilt the 904 transmission and did some other small upgrades. I also replaced the original seat covers with generic cloth covers. They are custom fit, but not the OEM upholstery. I have the originals for use as patterns in case you want to return to the OEM style. I replaced the carpet and converted the AC system to r1234a and installed a new compressor and condenser.
I drove the Coronet on and off over the years, as my business got busy, it tended to sit in storage a lot. in 2009 I decided to make it my daily driver and began a series of upgrades designed to make it a practical daily driver that I could have room in the back seat for my daughters and still have a bit of fun on the street. I collected a lot of parts for suspension upgrades and removed the original vinyl roof to find any last rust damaged. I found holes around the front and rear windows and that is when the plans stalled. The coronet sat in storage again until we found time in the shop to repaired the rust around both windshields.
Once I repaired the rust in the roof, by cutting out the bad metal and welding in new, I wasn't sure if replacing the vinyl top was a smart move. I decided it did need the black top to make the Ice Blue Metallic paint show well, but did not want the future rust issues that seem to come along with a vinyl top. So I used spray on bed liner material to replace the top! Now you have the look of a vinyl top and it is the best protection available for the roof. I then had the car repainted in the original B3-Ice Blue paint color, but used new basecoat / clearcoat paint. The underhood and under the decklid are still original paint.
Around that time, I purchased a new Charger (a 2006 R/T with the track pack performance group and a 5.7 Hemi). Well, that car changed all my plans and the charger became my daily driver and the 70 Coronet sat in storage again. I brought it out again last year (2012) and finished the suspension upgrades, added front and rear sway bars, added welded in torque boxes and frame connectors. I also replaced the steering gear box, idler arm, pitman arm and installed a new A/C compressor and replaced the evaporator (inside the car with the heater core). The factory A/C system blows cold and all the controls operate as they should.
Now I have bought another new car (a 2012 Charger R/T this time) and also recently found a purchased a one owner 1970 Coronet Convertible, so it is time for the 1970 Dodge Coronet 4-door to be enjoyed by a new owner. It is a 50 year old car and has issues, but overall it is a good running car that operates as it should, but it is not a new car! Most folks make statements on ebay about purchases being final and I have a slightly different philosophy. If you purchase the Coronet and come look at it and decide you do not want it, you do not have to buy it. I do ask that you cover the cost of the listing, but that is all. I own a Mopar shop and my reputation on ebay is important to us, we want happy customers!

Dodge Hellcat orders on hold due to 'unprecedented demand'
Sun, Mar 15 2015Want to get your hands on a 707-horsepower Dodge Challenger or Charger Hellcat to call your very own? We don't blame you, and you're not alone. According to Motor Authority and confirmed by a spokesperson from Chrysler, Dodge has gotten so many orders for its stable of Hellcats that it simply cannot keep up with demand: "Due to unprecedented demand for the 2015 Dodge Charger and Challenger SRT Hellcats, we are temporarily restricting orders while we validate current orders that are in the system." Put another way, if you're waiting for a Hellcat, your wait is likely to be a lot longer than you'd like. We've reached out to Chrysler to find out how long it might take for a new customer to get a new Hellcat, and we'll update if and when we hear back.

Chop the top of your new Dodge Viper for $35,000
Mon, 21 Jul 2014We have good news, and we have bad news. First, the good: It's now possible to get a brand-new Dodge Viper roadster, which is nice, considering we're in the dead of summer and many of us like wind-in-the-hair motoring. Now, the bad: This is not a factory option from the automaker, instead coming courtesy of an aftermarket company called Prefix Performance, and that means it's going to cost you some serious coin.
Called Medusa, this drop-top Viper was created without the knowledge or consent of Dodge, but that's probably fine because Prefix works with the automaker already for the final preparation of the American supercar, including paint. According to the company, the current, fifth-gen Viper was built with a convertible version in mind, so no chassis strengthening is required. From the looks of the somewhat grainy photos available, the conversion appears of very high quality.
Want one? Well, that means you're going to need to procure a Viper - Prefix has 10 units ready for transformation as it stands - and that's going to cost at the very least $102,485. Then, you'll need to write a check for an additional $35,000 for Prefix to surgically remove the car's roof. Thing is, for that kind of cash, a prospective owner could buy, among other very nice options, a Viper hardtop and a loaded Miata, or a Corvette Stingray convertible and several pockets full of change. Or, perhaps a new Viper hardtop and a used, first-gen Viper convertible?
Corvette Z06 and Viper TA square off at the strip
Wed, Jan 21 2015There are many long-standing grudge matches among automobiles: 911 vs GT-R, Mustang vs Camaro, Ferrari vs Lamborghini... but as far as high-end American metal goes, it doesn't get much more legendary than Viper vs 'Vette. So after Chevy released the new Corvette Z06, we knew it was only a matter of time before it would have to square off against the Viper TA. And what better place to pit these two parallel pillars of American performance than on the drag strip? Fortunately that's just what we have here. In one corner, the 2014 Dodge Viper TA, with its 8.4-liter V10 pumping out 640 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque. In the other, the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06, the supercharger on its 6.2-liter V8 more than making up for the discrepancy in displacement and cylinder count to produce 650 hp and just as much torque. But numbers don't tell the whole story, so watch the video clip to see which reaches the end of the quarter-mile first.
