This car drives like new, brakes straight sounds cool, this is truly a great driving car, I just drove it to Arizona and back was a great ride and cold ac, with plenty of smooth, strong power. No rattles, noises of any kind.
One owner car that was stored since 1989 in climate controlled garage after owner had passed away. I purchased it last year and had Mopar specialist COMPLETELY go through this cool car. New everything including brakes, tires, shocks, rebuilt carb, all fluids changed,battery,freeze plugs,tune up,filters, diff fluid,fuel lines,brake lines,vacuum lines etc, etc.. No expense spared, all work done correctly.I'm sure I forgot some things but you get the idea.
This car is a time capsule SURVIVOR, still wears original paint and interior,has some bumps and bruises, and interior is showing its age, but looks great with brand new BFG Goodrich radial tires with original Mopar Dog Dish hubcaps, the original hull hubcaps are included. Look at the trunk pictures absolutely RUST FREE, with all factory markings, etc., fantastic survivor or original reference car. The bilge sheet is stuck to driver floorboard, and didn't want to try to remove, have owners manual tire jack and handle, need a spare though. The weatherstripping is soft and intact and subtle, trunk and floor pans are unbelievable! Wiring is flexible and like new as is the dash, steering wheel, etc.. I saved the old parts. During the job my mechanic found that the original matching tranny would not go into drive, reverse, low gear, were fine so my mechanic had the same f4 tranny at his shop and was installed in the car, already rebuilt, The original tranny comes with this car. This is a very rare car, there can't be many as original and as nice as this, it is a great cruiser with great street presence, VERY LOW RESERVE.

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky
Fri, 24 Aug 2012It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
Check out our gallery of discontinued cars above, then scroll down for more information.
Dodge offers 100 years of solid advice in new ad
Fri, 18 Apr 2014This is a cool ad. Dodge, which is celebrating its centennial this year, recruited some of its peers to see what you should and shouldn't do in life. Of course, some are obvious - don't complain, learn from your mistakes and live for now.
Then again, some are less obvious. Some, actually, are downright awesome. Towards the end, each piece of advice is interspersed with clips of Dodge's redesigned Challenger smoking its tires. Really, this ad feels like it'd be worthy of a Super Bowl spot. This commercial's personal nature is really in keeping with some of the big game's most interesting ads, like the Imported From Detroit commercial, the Farmer ad and Maserati's surprise clip from this year's game.
Take a look below and let us know what you think.
Dodge Charger Hellcat hitting 60 in 2.9 seconds on drag radials?
Thu, 02 Oct 2014The Dodge boys and their cousins from SRT have shoehorned the same 707-horsepower, 6.2-liter supercharged V8 into both the Dodge Challenger and Charger. The former being a two-door, it's lighter than the latter four-door sedan. So it would stand to reason that the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat would be the quicker of the two, right?
Only that's not necessarily proving to be the case. On stock rubber, yes, the coupe beats the sedan: Dodge quotes a 0-60 time of 3.7 seconds for the Charger SRT Hellcat and 3.5 for the Challenger. Same gap across the quarter-mile: 11 seconds flat for the Charger versus 10.8 seconds for the Challenger. But according to recent reports, the story changes when you put both on drag radials.
While visiting Chrysler HQ in Auburn Hills, MI, TorqueNews.com caught wind of performance figures for the Charger Hellcat on drag tires: 0-60 in a mind-blowing 2.9 seconds and a quarter-mile in just 10.7. The latter figure just barely pips the Hellcat-powered Challenger's NHRA-certified figure of 10.8, making the Charger not only the fastest sedan on the market, but also the fastest muscle car. What isn't immediately clear, however, is whether the drag radials in question have any tread on them and are street-legal, or if they're pure slicks confined to a closed strip.
