NO RESERVE!!!

This is a super clean 68 dart 2 door hard top 318 automatic.  Perfect start for your hemi-dart clone or your big block GTS clone.  It starts, runs and drives great.  I purchased with the intention to turn it into an autocross car, but have too many other projects.  I will do my best to describe this car as accurately as possible.  

While the car is super clean, it IS NOT a show car.  This is 100% a driver car.  Chrome is decent but does have some pitting.  The car is original in all ways.  It still has the bone stock 318 and the high performance 2 barrel carb... LOL.  It drives straight, stops decent, heater works, the AC turns on and blows, but there is no cold air.  As best as I can tell, the system needs a charge. No rust underneath, floor pans are solid. Trunk is solid.  Still has the original bumper jack.  The car is so clean, I can't imagine there are actually 86,000 miles on it, but thats what the odometer says.  The car has been re-painted the original dark blue.  I don't know for sure when, but it looks like a 15-20 year old paint job.  The car has an open differential in it and it is NOT an 8 3/4.  Finally I just replaced the rear brakes.  Completely new pads, wheel cylinders, drums and wheel kit.  

Now for the not so nice.... Interior is dirty. Front seat is torn in several places. There is an oil leak, it appears to be a rear main.  There is a small dent/ding on the passenger side rear fender.  There is a slight exhaust leak right where the two exhaust manifold pipes merge into 1 collector.  Its not major, but it is there.  The car could use a slight tune up.  I never took the carb apart and I suspect it could use a good cleaning.  It has a slight bog right as you press the gas.  That being said, I drove it all this summer and just started the car today after sitting for the last month or so. it starts fine, idles nice and drives down the road with no problems. You could easily buy the car and drive it home if you want.  This is the perfect POWER TOUR car.  

I REPEAT.. NO RESERVE AUCTION - HIGH BIDDER WINS THIS CAR

Details:  I make no warranty on the car.  It is sold by me, (a private seller) as is.  I live near Milwaukee, WI.  Once I have received payment in full, I will load on an open trailer and deliver up to 100 miles from zip code 53018 for $200. I will also help deliver the car to a transporter of your choice, free of charge within 30 miles of 53018.  I will not ship your car, I will not deliver the car further than 100 miles from 53018.  It is your responsibility to get the car home. I'm simply willing to help out. 

Finally:  I have 100% positive feedback.  I will do whatever I can to make this a 100% positive transaction for you.  There is no funny business here.  No phantom bids, just a no reserve auction to buy a very nice car.  Buying a car online takes trust and lots of communication.  I will provide both.  I encourage you to stop by and see the car, ask questions or give me a call.  Send me an email, with your name/phone I will happily call you back.  Please no tire kickers.. no low ball offers.. The car is for sale locally, I reserve the right to end the auction early if it sells.  

I have a clear Wisconsin Title with no loan.  I will hand you the title and keys to the car once I receive the full purchase price.  My preference is cash or money transfer.  I will not accept any personal checks.    $500 is due immediately upon winning bid.  We will settle the remaining balance when you pick the car up.

Thanks for looking - Rob

Stellantis reports record margins, $7B profits despite chip shortage

Tue, Aug 3 2021

MILAN — Automaker Stellantis on Tuesday said it achieved faster-than-expected progress on synergies and record margins in its first six months as a combined company, despite suffering 700,000 units in lower production due to interruptions in the semiconductor supply chain. The company — formed from French carmaker Peugeot PSAÂ’s takeover of the Italian-American company Fiat Chrysler — reported net profit of 5.9 billion euros ($7 billion) in the first half of 2021, compared with a loss 813 million euros during the same period a year earlier, which was impacted by the coronavirus restrictions around the globe. Shipments rose 44% to 3.2 million units, while revenues rose 46% to 75 billion euros. “We are very pleased with the speed with which the new team has begun to execute as one company, as Stellantis,Â’Â’ Chief Financial Officer Richard Palmer told reporters. Semiconductor shortages accounted for 200,000 units of production losses in the first quarter and 500,000 in the second quarter. Semiconductors are used more than ever before in new vehicles with electronic features such as Bluetooth connectivity and driver assist, navigation and hybrid electric systems. Stellantis achieved 1.3 billion euros in cost savings in the first half, mostly by sharing investments in new technologies and platforms, which Palmer said was a faster rate than initially forecast. It aims to achieve 80% of the targeted 5 billion in cost savings by 2024. “These synergies allow us to continue to invest in the electrification strategy, which we talk about every day,” Palmer said. Stellantis, which lags competitors in rolling out electric vehicles, plans to launch 21 fully electric or plug-in gas electric hybrid vehicles over the next two years. North American posted record profitability on global sales of Ram trucks and the strong launch of the Jeep Wrangler 4xe, which was the best-selling plug-in gas electric vehicle in the United States in the second quarter. Stellantis was the market leader in South America and second in Europe. The results were presented on a pro-forma basis, taking into account the performance of each of the carmakers as separate entities during 2020.

2015 Dodge Challenger gets 6.4L 485-HP V8 Scat Pack

Thu, 17 Apr 2014

While it's not seeing the drastic facelift of its brother, the Charger, at the 2014 New York Auto Show, the 2015 Challenger is packing some upgrades of its own. It wears even more retro-inspired styling cues, and there are new 6.4-liter Scat Pack and Shaker trims.
If you thought the Challenger looked retro before, Dodge is taking things even farther with inspiration for the refresh coming from the iconic 1971 model. Up front, it has a new split grille, a larger power bulge in the hood and projector fog lights. At the rear, the classic inspiration continues with split LED taillights with Gloss Black trim, and a rear valance panel redesigned to make the 2015 model look wider and lower.
The '71 motif is carried inside as well with a high-sill center console and aluminum gauge bezels. There's still more than a touch of modernity, with an available 8.4-inch Uconnect infotainment system and 7-inch customizable display between the retro-inspired speedometer and tachometer. For better safety, the Challenger is also now available with forward collision warning, adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring and rear cross path detection. Stability control and electric power steering are standard across all models too.

Stellantis mega-merger gets approval from FCA, PSA shareholders

Mon, Jan 4 2021

MILAN — Shareholders of Fiat Chrysler and PSA Peugeot decisively voted Monday to merge the U.S.-Italian and French carmakers to create worldÂ’s 4th-largest auto company. Addressing separate meetings, both PSA Peugeot CEO Carlos Tavares and Fiat Chrysler Chairman John Elkann spoke of the “historic” importance of the vote, which combines legacy car companies that helped write the industrial histories of the United States, France and Italy. Before the merger is finalized, shares in the new company, to be called Stellantis, must the launched. It will be traded in Milan, New York and Paris. The marriage of PSA Peugeot and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is built on the promise of cost-savings in the capital-hungry industry, but what remains to be seen is if it will be able to preserve jobs and heritage brands in a global market still suffering from the pandemic. The deal will create the worldÂ’s fourth-largest carmaker, with the capacity to produce 8.7 million cars a year, behind Volkswagen, Toyota and Renault-Nissan, and create 5 billion euros in annual synergies.  “We are fully aware of the fact that together we will be stronger than individually,'' PSA CEO Carlos Tavares told a virtual gathering of eligible shareholders. “The two companies are in good health. These two companies have strong positions in their markets.” The new company will put together under one roof French mass-market carmakers Peugeot and Citroen, top-selling Jeep and Italian luxury and sports brands Maserati and Alfa Romeo - pooling companies that have helped define the industry in the United States, France and Italy. While the tie-up is billed as a merger of equals, the power advantage goes to PSA, with Tavares running Stellantis and holding the tie-breaking vote on the 11-seat board. Tavares is set to take full control of the company early this year, possibly by the end of January. Fiat Chrysler chairman John Elkann, heir to the Fiat-founding Agnelli family and Fiat ChryslerÂ’s biggest shareholder, will be the Stellantis chairman. Fiat Chrysler CEO Mike Manley will head North American operations, which is key to Tavares' long-time goal of getting a U.S. foothold for the French carmaker he has run since 2014, and the clear money-maker for Fiat Chrysler. Such a deal was long wanted by Fiat ChryslerÂ’s long-time CEO Sergio Marchionne, who had predicted the necessity of consolidation in the industry. He was unable to find a deal before his sudden death in July 2018.
