4 Speed!!! Real R/t, Not A Clone, All Original Sheetmetal on 2040-cars

ONE OF ABOUT 1100 FACTORY 440 FOUR SPEEDS BUILT
I restored this beautiful Coronet R/T to original condition. Its a real deal R/T that is as solid and reliable as any late model car. Not a show car, this car is ready for the road but it wont take much to bring it up to the next show level. This is the best color combination and everywhere it goes, it gets compliments and always draws a crowd at car shows. The paint is basecoat/clearcoat TT1 medium green metallic with the correct dual band bumblebee stripe that has been painted on. It also has a new Legendary vinyl top that looks great. It comes with a set of Wheel Vintiques 15" Magnum 500s on BFG Radials with about 5000 miles on them, not the Keystones in the pictures. The interior of the car is also new from Legendary including seat covers, door panels and carpet. Everything works. The original 440 has 906 heads with some port work, a vintage Edelbrock TM7 intake, a Holley 870 Street Avenger carb, an older DC .509 purple shaft cam, an 8 qt Milodon oil pan, a Mopar chrome box ignition and headers with a new exhaust. All of the original parts come with it. It runs strong but getting tired and could probably use some freshening up. The transmission is an 18 spline "Hemi crash box" 4 speed with a Dana 60 rear with 3.54 gears, all factory installed and documented. I put a new Centerforce clutch in it recently. Manual steering and brakes. This is a real deal musclecar without the fluff. It came without a console from the factory but I have a correct green console that is available separately. The car also came with power windows from the factory but have been retrofitted with easier to use and find parts for crank-up windows. Every panel on the car is the original from the factory. There are some holes in the trunk floor but does not need an entire new floor to properly repair it. That is the only rust on the car and I mean it. The chrome is all there and could use some detailing. I removed the chrome rocker moldings because I like the cleaner look without them but they come with the car with new clips if you wish to reinstall them. I have owned this car since 2001 and representing it the best I can. The car is also for sale locally. |

Ford leads top searched-for car brands on Google in 2014
Mon, Dec 22 2014With less than two weeks until 2014 takes its final bow, anyone and everyone is looking back on the past 50 or so weeks to see how they stacked up. For search giant Google, that means its time to check out its annual Trends report. Besides the most popular search term (the late, great Robin Williams), the most searched for gadget (the iPhone 6) and most searched for disease symptoms (quite worryingly, Ebola took the crown here), we have the most searched for automaker. With the long-awaited sixth-generation of one of America's most iconic vehicles, the Mustang, and a ground-breaking update for the US market's perennial best seller, the F-Series, it should come as no surprise at all that Ford was Google's most searched for automaker in 2014. Jeep captured second place, while Dodge, took third. We suspect introducing a pair of cars with 707 horsepower had something to do with that bronze medal... Scroll down to see the rest of this year's most searched for automakers, and then head into Comments and let us know if you're surprised by any of these. This content is hosted by a third party.

Dodge Scat Packages add Mopar performance upgrades in three stages
Wed, 06 Nov 2013Dodge has revealed what it calls Scat Package Stage Kits that enhance the performance of the Charger and the Challenger equipped with the 5.7-liter V8, and the Dart equipped with the turbocharged 2.4-liter inline four-cylinder engine. The Scat Packs use Mopar performance parts that also can be bought separately. Most of the upgrades increase engine output, but Dodge somehow manages to not specifically mention the power gains associated with each Scat Pack.
The three Scat Packs offered for the V8-powered cars focus on higher power ratings, and each stage comes complete with a unique engine-management calibration to optimize output. Stage one comes with a cold-air intake and a cat-back exhaust; stage two adds a performance camshaft; and stage three really gives you the goods, adding ported polished cylinder heads and performance headers.
For the Dart, the Scat Packs focus on engine, transmission, chassis and brake upgrades. Stage one will net you a cold-air intake, a short-throw shifter and slotted rotors with performance brake pads; stage two adds a cat-back exhaust system and an engine-management calibration to increase output by taking advantage of premium-octane gasoline; and stage three adds 13-inch vented brake discs up front clamped by four-piston calipers, suspension with adjustable springs and struts and performance front and rear antiroll bars.
Dodge Viper might not live past 2017
Wed, Oct 14 2015The Dodge Viper might be running out of venom because the muscle-bound sports car could be on the road to being cancelled in just a few years. According to Allpar, the proposed deal between the United Auto Workers and FCA US would close the Connor Avenue Assembly plant, which produces the Viper, in 2017. The proposed union contract doesn't give a reason for closing the factory, but the decision is understandable if frustrating. The plant was idled twice last year to reduce production of the Viper to match flagging demand. A $15,000 price cut for the coupe eventually allowed for a sales surge, but that appetite hasn't continued in 2015. From January through September of this year, the company has only moved 503 of the sports cars, down eight percent. To further spur demand, Dodge has employed a few other tactics like the 1 of 1 program for buyers to personalize their Vipers, and the introduction of the brutally track-focused ACR. In a world where high-end sports cars are continuing to get friendlier for both their drivers and the environment, the Viper remains a holdout with a big, naturally aspirated V10. Even with the addition of some electronic aids on the latest Vipers, the snake still demands respect from those behind the wheel. Respect is fine, but sales are what matter to FCA – and the harsh reality is that a lack thereof might force the Viper into retirement, whether we like it or not.
