Kamloops, British Columbia, Canada

This is the first time I have ever offered this car for sale. My 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T Plum Crazy Hemi Convertible clone car. It runs with a crate 528 cubic inch aluminum heads Hemi engine with 610 horsepower and 650 ft-lbs of torque. Custom built 727 automatic transmission, 8 3/4  sure grip posi traction, 3:23 rear axle, power disc brakes with electric vacuum pump and power steering. IT is loaded with all new rubber door and trunk seals, black side stripe decals, black stripe on R/T hood, 426 metal emblems on hood, dual painted mirrors, flip top gas cap, rally gauges, tack, and power top. A cost of over $120,000.00 was spent building this beautiful show car just prior to me driving it about 1900 miles and that was a very cool once in a life time kind of experienc and pleasure. It's not any day or every day when a Hemi challenger convertible pulls up to the gas pumps, in fact every time I did , before I turned the engine off there was a croud gathered around it.The tack and speed odometer work well and the total milage registered on the odometer is 11878. This may be the actual miles on the body but I'am not sure of that but of course by looking at it you would think it had 78 miles. I'am getting into my senior years now and with regrets due to health issues I'am forced to sell this car as well as other cars that I own. The car is located on British Columbia,Canada and it can be sold with either a USA registration or a Canadian registration, I can do that for the buyer. The seller shall and will make every responsible effort to disclose any known defects associated with this vehicle at the buyer's request prior to the close of the auction.All the winter photos were taken in Nov 2013 and it was about 10 below zero thats why I did not snap the toneau cover down tightly, if it were sommer then it would fit nicely.Now that I have decided to sell this car there is two seprate locals gents that are trying to put a deal together ,so if any one of them come up with the funds before the auction runs its course then I do reserve the right to stop the auction and sell it locally. THIS IS GOING FOR A SECOND AND FINAL ROUND TO SEE IF I CAN GET ANY CLOSER TO MY LOWEST DOLLAR.

Has Dodge stepped in it again with Scat Pack lawsuit?

Mon, 20 Oct 2014

Lawsuits are an unfortunate part of doing business in just about any industry, so the latest complaint filed by a California-based aftermarket firm against Chrysler would seem to be nothing more than business as usual. But this isn't the first time the two companies have sparred over this particular issue.
According to a report from Automotive News, the dispute revolves around the Scat Pack name that Chrysler first offered on the Charger, Coronet, Dart and Super Bee starting in 1968. Scat Enterprises, a manufacturer of crankshafts and other components for Dodges and other vehicles, sued Chrysler for using its name. A few years later the Scat Pack disappeared from the Dodge catalog.
Fast forward to August 2013 when Chrysler applied to register the Scat Pack name anew. The US Patent and Trademark Office turned down Chrysler's application, but the automaker proceeded anyway, unveiling new Scat Packs for the Challenger, Charger and Dart at last year's SEMA show.

Dodge unveils Special Service Durango for government fleets

Fri, 18 Oct 2013

Straight off its refresh, the Dodge Durango is slipping back into its dress blues and getting back to work. The 2014 Dodge Durango Special Service Vehicle boasts all the refinements and improvements that the refreshed, civilian-spec model received, most notably a 15-percent improvement in fuel economy.
Designed for police and fire departments, and as Chrysler's answer to the Ford Police Interceptor Utility and Chevrolet Tahoe PPV in the growing service SUV market, the Durango boasts a 600-mile range, thanks to the addition of an eight-speed automatic, available on both the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 and 5.7-liter Hemi V8. Equipped with the 360-horsepower Hemi, the Durango SSV can tow up to 7,400 pounds (the V6 is limited to 6,200 pounds).
Police and fire department Durangos get a few special features over the civilian models. The electric systems are ruggedized, with a heavy duty battery and a 220-amp alternator in place, while the engine's water pump and oil cooler are both stronger. The brakes are tougher, and a load-leveling suspension has been fitted, too.

Chrysler's next-gen minivans will get more expensive

Mon, Feb 2 2015

Chrysler introduced the value-oriented Great American Package on the base model Chrysler 300 in 2005. That morphed into the American Value Package available as an option on the Dodge Grand Caravan in 2012, which made it the lowest-priced minivan in the country, now with an MSRP of $21,395. Automotive News reports that Chrysler is going to kill the value package when the new Town & Country arrives for 2017, because the new platform and technology of the coming minivan make it "a difficult price point to get to." AN says the next-generation haulers will come in around $26,000 and can go beyond $45,000 with options; clicking every "Add" button we could find on the Town & Country build page, we couldn't get past $43,000 for today's model. That entry pricing in 2017 would eliminate the first three trims on the Dodge option, the American Value Package, the SE that starts at $24,195, and the SE Plus that starts at $24,995. This makes us think the next-generation haulers will take a sizable step upscale in terms of feel, content, and trim, a la the Chrysler 200. In this writer's opinion, if they do as good a job as they've been doing recently, the extra money will be worth it. There have been spy shots and a lot of rumors about it, like the Caravan minivan going away and becoming a crossover, but we'll see it revealed at the 2016 Detroit Auto Show.
