|
HERE IS A MUST HAVE CAR FOR THE SERIOUS COLLECTOR. THIS IS A ORIGINAL JC PENNY FACTORY A/FX SUPER STOCK RACE CAR WITH FACTORY FIBERGLASS BUMPERS,HOOD,FENDERS,DOORS, DECK LID AND DASH OPTIONS INCLUDING FACTORY ALUMINUM DOOR HINGES.. SHOWCASED FOR THE LAST 10 YEARS EXCLUSIVELY IN THE WORLD SPEED EXHIBIT AT WAYNE LENSING'S HISTORIC AUTO ATTRACTIONS MUSEUM IN ROSCOE, IL. THIS 1965 DODGE CORONET A/FX SUPER STOCK WAS ORIGINALLY CAMPAIGNED IN 1965 AS THE"" PENNY PINCHER"" WITH KEITH BLACK AS THE ENGINE BUILDER. SEVERAL YEARS AFTER BEING RETIRED,THIS VEHICAL APPEARED AS A DICK LANDY CAR. AFTER THE NEW OWNER REALIZED THAT THE DOCUMENTATION WAS FALSE AND THE CAR WAS ACTUALLY NOT A LANDY CAR, HE HAD THE CAR RESERCHED BY JIM KRAMER (KRAMER AUTOMOTIVE SPEACIALTIES, HERMAN PA) IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE CAR WAS ORIGINALLY PURCHASED BY JC PENNY AND RACED IN A/FX TO PROMOTE THE STORE'S LINE OF A.FX AUTOMOTIVE PRODUCTS. AS IT TURNED OUT, THIS CAR IS RARER THAN ANYONE EVER EXPECTED. IT MAY BE THE ONLY ONE OF ITS TYPE IN EXISTANCE. IN 1965, THE FACTORIES WERENT ALLOWED TO USE ALUMINUM BODY PARTS ON THE CARS ANYMORE, SO THEY OFFERED THE "65" LIGHTWEIGHTS WITH ACID-DIPPED BODY PANELS. CHRYSLER INTERPRETED THE RULES IN THEIR OWN WAY AND THE RULES SPECIFIED NO ALUMINUM. HOWEVER,NHRA DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT USING FIBERGLASS PANELS ON THEIR ALTERED-WHEELBASE CARS, BUT IN ORDER TO DO THAT, THEY HAD TO OFFER FIBERGLASS ON THE REGULAR (UNALTERED) CARS AS AN OPTION. AS IT TURNS OUT THE FIBERGLASS WAS COMPLETED JUST BEFORE THE NHRA RULED THAT FIBERGLASS AND ALTERED -WHEELBASE CARS WOULD NOT BE ALLOWED. THE FIBERGLASS PROGRAM WAS SUMMARILY SCRAPPED AFTER THE RULING BUT FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME, FIBERGLASS REMAINED AN OPTION ON THE STANDARD,UN-ALTERED HEMI RACE CARS, AND ONLY ONE CAR WAS ORDERED WITH THIS OPTION, THE JC PENNY RACE CAR. ITS REALLY A TRICK CAR WITH ALUMINUM DOOR HINGES,FIBERGLASS FENDERS,DORRS,HOOD,DECKLID,BUMPERS AND EVEN THE DASH. IT ALSO HAS PLEXIGLAS WINDOWS. ELECTING NOT TO RETURN THE CAR TO ITS FORMER APPEARENCE, HE BROUGHT MCDONALDS ON BOARD FOR THE FIRST EVER VENTURE INTO MOTOR SPORTS ADVERTISING. THATS RIGHT THE VERY FIRST RACE CAR EVER TO BE GRACED WITH THE GOLDEN ARCHES. COCA-COLA ALSO JOINED IN TO CREATE THE MCDONALDS COCA-COLA NOSTOLGIC RACE TEAM AS IT STILL APPEARS TODAY. AS WITH MANY ORIGINAL RACE CARS, THE CAR CURRENTLY HAS A NOM ALUMINUM HEAD,HEMI, THE ORIGINAL MAGNESIUM CROSS RAM,727 TORQUEFLIGHT AND DANA REAR END. WELL THATS THE HISTORY BEHIND THE CAR AND I HAVE THE DOCUMATION ON IT. IT TRULY IS SOMETHING FOR THE COLLECTOR. YOU CAN SEARCH YOUR WHOLE LIFE TO FIND SOMETHING THAT NO ONE ELSE HAS AND THIS COULD BE YOUR ONLY SHOT. VEH. IS FORSALE LOCALLY SO I DO RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END AUCTION EARLY.. PLEASE, SERIOUS PEOPLE CALL ME TO TALK ABOUT THE CAR. ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE ,I'M HERE TO ANSWER. 267-475-4000, THANKS FOR LOOKING, BILL |

Stellantis and LG launch joint venture for North American battery plant
Mon, Oct 18 2021Stellantis has struck a preliminary deal with battery maker LG Energy Solution (LGES) to produce battery cells and modules for North America, as the world's No. 4 automaker rolls out its 30 billion euro ($35 billion) electrification plan. Global automakers are investing billions of euros to accelerate a transition to low-emission mobility and prepare for a progressive phase-out of internal combustion engines. Stellantis and LGES's joint venture will produce battery cells and modules at a new facility with an annual capacity of 40 gigawatt hours (GWh), the two firms said on Monday. No financial details of the deal were provided. The plant is scheduled to start production by the first quarter of 2024, with groundbreaking expected in the second quarter of 2022, the companies said in their statement. Its location is under review and will be announced later. Stellantis, formed in January from the merger of Italian-American automaker Fiat Chrysler and France's PSA, has said it wants to secure more than 130 GWh of global battery capacity by 2025 and more than 260 GWh by 2030. The batteries produced under the deal will supply Stellantis' U.S., Canadian and Mexican assembly plants for installation in hybrid and fully electric vehicles, supporting its goal of e-vehicles making up more than 40% of its U.S. sales by 2030. The company, whose brands include Peugeot, Fiat, Opel and U.S. best-sellers Jeep and Ram, earlier this year announced it would invest more than 30 billion euros through 2025 on electrifying its vehicle lineup. Stellantis has said it would build three battery plants in Europe and two in North America, including at least one in the United States. Intesa Sanpaolo analyst Monica Bosio said the deal was positive, and a further step ahead in Stellantis' electrification process. It comes weeks after Stellantis and its partner TotalEnergies agreed to open up their battery cell joint venture ACC to Daimler, to expand their European sourcing of battery cells. Stellantis is also targeting more than 70% of sales in Europe to be of low-emission vehicles by 2030, and aims to make the total cost of owning an EV equal to that of a gasoline-powered model by 2026.

2013 Dodge Dart gets brace of new special edition models
Thu, 16 May 2013After almost a year on the market it, it is becoming more clear to Dodge how customers like to option out their Darts, so the automaker has combined popular features into three special edition packages and sweetened the prices. Start with a standard 2013 Dart and add either the SXT or Limited "Special Editions" or Rallye Appearance Group, and you'll save yourself a lot of box checking.
The $595 Dart SXT Special Edition takes the trim just above the base model and adds a new grille, dark-tinted headlights and projector fog lights, LED racetrack taillights, cruise control and audio controls on the leather-wrapped steering wheel. The Limited Special Edition starts with the top-end model and adds a power sunroof, heated front seats and steering wheel, dual-zone climate control and Nappa leather seats among other features, for $1,810.
The Rallye Appearance Group (pictured) is a package for the SXT, and it blacks out the front fascia, throws on 17-inch wheels and some badging for $395. The new special editions are reaching dealers now and could help the Dart's sales to further improve after a slow start. You can find out more about them in the press release below.
