1978 Dodge Magnum XE
This car is truly one of a kind. Only produced between 1978 and 1979, this was Dodge's last attempt at a muscle car before the front-drive K-car took over. I had bought this last spring (2012) intending on restoring it and making it a righteous cruiser...unfortunately, I don't have the time, money, or know-how this car deserves, so I'm hoping to find someone who can do this car up right.
It's got 88,000 original miles, a 360 (I replaced the stock 2bbl with an Edelbrock 4bbl) with an A904 3-speed automatic, Sure-Grip rear end, factory T-tops, a factory original digital clock (that still works!), 4 brand new Jetzon Revenger GTs, and a brand new Alpine CD deck and speakers.
When I got it, I had a lot of body work done - the trunk pan was replaced, along with the driver's side rear fender...with a little more work, she'll be ready for a new coat of paint. The interior is complete, but it needs some work. Basically, the foundation for a sweet ride is there - it just needs some finish work to be complete.
I've put almost $3000 into it, and I have the receipts...but to see it go to a good home, I'd take $1800 OBO.

Does the future of Fiat-Chrysler include Dodge?
Thu, 13 Jun 2013Wards Auto reports the future of Dodge is looking uncertain. Fiat has more or less laid out it's game plan for the next few years, and while the Chrysler, Fiat and Jeep lines are set to receive plenty of love, Dodge isn't so lucky. Fiat has already hobbled Dodge significantly by splitting off the brand's trucks into a separate Ram line.
Wards says that after the Avenger rides off into the sunset early next year, Fiat-Chrysler won't replace the model, leaving a gaping midsize hole in the Dodge lineup. The report also cites unnamed sources as saying that at least two other current Dodge products will move to the Chrysler line.
One of those could very well be the Grand Caravan. Chrysler has already made it clear that it plans to trim redundancy between its minivan offerings, but it has yet to clarify which other vehicle could sail under the Chrysler banner moving forward. Either way, such changes to the product line would theoretically leave Dodge with just four models.
Dodge idles Viper production again at Conner Avenue
Mon, 07 Jul 2014You've got to hand it to Dodge for having the gumption to put the original Viper into production in the first place. It was, after all, much more of an emotional decision than a practical one, and a move which saw the first production V10 engine placed in a road car - long before the advent of the Lamborghini Gallardo, Audi R8, Porsche Carrera GT or Lexus LFA, not to mention the other Ford, BMW and Volkswagen Group models that used such engines.
It's now been 22 years since the first Viper entered production and the Viper still rolls on several generations later, but we're sad to say that courageous decision has not always been met with overwhelming sales success. In fact parent Chrysler was forced to idle the Conner Avenue plant where the Viper is made back in April due to slow sales. And while production resumed again as planned on June 23, it apparently didn't do the trick.
As a result, Chrysler corporate communications chief Shawn Morgan revealed to Autoblog that the assembly line has been shut down again for another two weeks. The line was up and running for nearly two full work weeks from June 23 until the holiday weekend that started on Thursday, July 3. But instead of coming back online today as planned, it's been idled again for the weeks of July 7 and 14. That means it will be July 21, at the earliest, before the serpentine supercars start slithering down the assembly line at Conner Avenue again. Once it does, however, production is set to resume at the same pace it was before the shutdown.
