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 Dart getting hatchback variant... sort of
Thu, 25 Apr 2013In other parts of the world, Fiat builds and sells a version of the Dodge Dart called the Viaggio, and it appears that in addition to the current sedan bodystyle, a new hatchback version of the car is also in the works. Autocar says that the general manager for China's Guangzhou-Fiat joint venture, John Burton, has confirmed that a new Viaggio hatchback will be revealed by the end of this year before it goes on sale in early 2014.
The Viaggio will soon be joined by the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, which in China will be called the Liberty Light, at the Guangzhou-Fiat plant. While the idea of a Dodge Dart hatchback might be enough to enable most of us to forget about the Dodge Caliber, a North American variant doesn't appear to be in the cards. We reached out to Chrysler PR boss Rick Deneau, and he offered a succinct: "No plans at this time."
Chrysler expecting up to 200,000 9-speed transmissions for 3 models this year
Tue, 22 Jan 2013Striving for improved fuel economy, we already knew that Chrysler will begin using a nine-speed automatic transmission in some of its new products this year, but what we haven't known is that volume at which this gearbox will be used. According to Bloomberg, Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne has been quoted as saying that the automaker expects to sell close to 200,000 units equipped with this new transmission in 2013. Those gear-rich trannies will be spread out across three models, consisting of the redesigned Chrysler 200, the still-unnamed Jeep Liberty replacement and the Dodge Dart.
This transmission should play a pivotal role in making Chrysler vehicles more competitive in their respective segments. Just for comparison, one of the Dart's key competitors, the Toyota Corolla, still uses a four-speed automatic, and a previous report indicates that the next-generation 200 could get up to 38 miles per gallon on the highway, which is better than most non-hybrid midsize sedans on the market. Marchionne says that the new Jeep model is expected during the second quarter of this year, but there is no word as to when the new 200 or nine-speed Dart will debut, but clearly Dodge would like to have the transmission in its compact yesterday. As for that volume figure, it definitely doesn't seem out of reach since the Dart, Liberty and 200 combined for a total of more than 225,000 units in 2012.
How many more gears can we expect in future cars? Probably not many more, since the CEO of transmission-builder ZF, Stefan Sommer, previously stated that nine speeds was the "natural limit" for transmissions.
Chrysler earns $1.7B in 2012, revises product plans for US
Wed, 30 Jan 2013Hot on the heels of Ford's earnings announcement for the year that was, Chrysler today reported a 2012 net income of $1.7 billion, up substantially from the comparatively minuscule $183 million profit earned in 2011 when it repaid its US government loans.
Chrysler's good year ended with an excellent fourth quarter that saw net income rise 68 percent from $225 million in 2011 to $378 million. Where are all those extra earnings coming from? Market share, which Chrysler saw increase to 11.4% last year on sales of 1.65 million vehicles. In fact, the Auburn Hills, MI-based automaker out-paced the industry's market growth of 13 percent last year with sales up 21 percent for the year.
The company also revealed an updated product plan for its Chrysler Group and Fiat brands that looks all the way out to 2016. It's an updated version of the plan introduced in 2009 shortly after Fiat took control of the American automaker, and includes such new additions as an Alfa Romeo model, likely the 4C, to be introduced in the US this year, as well five more Alfa models by 2016. Likewise, Fiat will be growing by an additional seven models in the coming few years.
