T/a 340 6 Six Pack Aar Cuda on 2040-cars
Middleboro, Massachusetts, United States
I am reluctantly selling my T/A. I can tell you anything you need to know about it. It has all it's original sheet metal. It has never been in an accident. It still has it's original paint. It was owned by three people before me. The original owner sold it to the second owner, whom I've located and spoken with, then he sold it to the man I bought it from who was an auto collector. It has been stored indoors in his heated garage since 1979. The interior was sandblasted when he got it. He was extremely diligent about keeping the parts organized. I have every single part for this car in boxes except for the engine, transmission and rear leaf springs. The engine supposedly had been cracked and thrown away by the first owner, along with the springs. The second owner sold the intake and carburetors. The body is in incredible condition. There is almost no rot except the lower rear window and hood hinge areas common to these. The fenders some dents and repairs. The driver's door is excellent, the passenger is has damage to the bottom edge. The door sticker is intact. The hood has damage to the hinge area that is common also. The trunk is excellent and the rear spoiler has a small repair that cannot be seen from the outside. The rear valance is gone. The rear window is gone. The windshield is cracked. The frame rails are all in near perfect condition with very small dents from jacking. There is no rot whatsoever. There are two very small dents on the roof. There are no extra holes drilled anywhere in the firewall or anything. The vin's are in perfect condition on the cowl and radiator support. The 52 marking on the k-member is there.
The engine in the car is a '69 340 and the transmission is a 727 but not the original. The suspension is complete. It doesn't have the fast ratio steering option. Everything else is there except for the rear leafs. The rear end is the original 8 3/4 but the gears were changed to 4.30's. It still has original Dodge rear shocks in it. All four original rims are here and in perfect condition. The brake drums and two piece front rotors are mopar. The special brake booster is there, but the master cylinder is missing. The trim rings and center caps are there. I have all of the stainless and moldings and they are all in good to excellent condition. The complete interior there. It is white with the 8,000 RPM tach. The build sheet was still in the seat when I opened it. The headlight bezels are excellent but the grille is missing. The bumpers are straight. Thank you very much and please call John at 508-942-2945 with any questions. On Apr-27-14 at 16:12:02 PDT, seller added the following information: Please feel free to message me for more pictures. I have dozens of clear photos of the doors, windows, interior and tons of other parts. It is extremely complete and I have the parts clearly laid out and documented. Thanks, John.

Dodge shows can-do attitude with grand Can'avan sculpture
Fri, 01 Nov 2013There are lots of ways to celebrate an important birthday, and all of them are well deserved. You can throw a big party, buy yourself something nice, or - if you're the altruistic type - do something for others in need. The latter is how Chrysler has opted to mark the 30th anniversary of its Dodge Grand Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country.
Together with hunger-advocacy organization Canstruction, the Chrysler Foundation has built a full-scale replica of the Grand Caravan out of 30,000 food cans in the square at the corner of Yonge and Dundas in Toronto, a ways down the highway from where the real vans are built in Windsor. The sculpture was built over the course of 10 hours by 30 volunteers and was displayed earlier this week.
Now the installation is being taken down, and the cans of food are being donated to the Daily Bread Food Bank, which will assemble them into 2,000 food baskets to be distributed to those in need through its network of 200 food banks across the Canadian metropolis. Check out a neat time-lapse video of the build and the press release below.
EV cost burden pushing automakers to their limits, says Stellantis' CEO Tavares
Wed, Dec 1 2021DETROIT — Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares said external pressure on automakers to quickly shift to electric vehicles potentially threatens jobs and vehicle quality as producers struggle with EVs' higher costs. Governments and investors want car manufacturers to speed up the transition to electric vehicles, but the costs are "beyond the limits" of what the auto industry can sustain, Tavares said in an interview at the Reuters Next conference released Wednesday. "What has been decided is to impose on the automotive industry electrification that brings 50% additional costs against a conventional vehicle," he said. "There is no way we can transfer 50% of additional costs to the final consumer because most parts of the middle class will not be able to pay." Automakers could charge higher prices and sell fewer cars, or accept lower profit margins, Tavares said. Those paths both lead to cutbacks. Union leaders in Europe and North America have warned tens of thousands of jobs could be lost. Automakers need time for testing and ensuring that new technology will work, Tavares said. Pushing to speed that process up "is just going to be counter productive. It will lead to quality problems. It will lead to all sorts of problems," he said. Tavares said Stellantis is aiming to avoid cuts by boosting productivity at a pace far faster than industry norm. "Over the next five years we have to digest 10% productivity a year ... in an industry which is used to delivering 2 to 3% productivity" improvement, he said. "The future will tell us who is going to be able to digest this, and who will fail," Tavares said. "We are putting the industry on the limits." Electric vehicle costs are expected to fall, and analysts project that battery electric vehicles and combustion vehicles could reach cost parity during the second half of this decade. Like other automakers that earn profits from combustion vehicles, Stellantis is under pressure from both establishment automakers such as GM, Ford, VW and Hyundai, as well as start-ups such as Tesla and Rivian. The latter electric vehicle companies are far smaller in terms of vehicle sales and employment. But investors have given Tesla and Rivian higher market valuations than the owner of the highly profitable Jeep and Ram brands. That investor pressure is compounded by government policies aimed at cutting greenhouse gas emissions. The European Union, California and other jurisdictions have set goals to end sales of combustion vehicles by 2035.
Dodge Viper saved from crusher by students, but will it last?
Tue, 16 Sep 2014The saga of the Washington state community college hoping to keep its allegedly pre-production Dodge Viper out of the maw of the crusher is going strong. Not only does the school still have the car, but there's a chance that the college might even get to keep it.
The whole situation flared up in March when the South Puget Sound Community College in Olympia, WA, received a notice from Chrysler Group that requested that the school's Viper be destroyed. The automaker had loaned the muscle car to it about a decade ago to use for educational purposes in its auto tech classes. With the Dodge growing long in the tooth, "it is unlikely that these vehicles offer any educational value to students," the company said in its press release on the matter.
However, the college balked at destroying its Viper, despite the fact it had signed a contract with Chrysler Group to do so. The school further claimed that its car was incredibly special because it was a pre-production example and just the fourth one made back in 1992. Although, as we pointed out at the time, the photos of the school's vehicle showed a coupe that looked like a newer Viper GTS.
