1969 Dodge Charger R/t on 2040-cars
Forestville, New York, United States
|
Decided to sell the misses 1969 Dodge Charger R/T. 440 (#'s matching) survivor. Stripe delete Air-conditioned power window car that has lived it's life in CA since 1970. She is the 3rd owner. (she bought it in '12, and brought it to NY ) Incredibly solid car and right now is a great driver quality muscle car. As far as I can tell, the heads haven't even been off this motor. Runs great and easily cruises down the interstate at 70! All new front end bushings, shocks all the way around, and all braking components have been replaced. Car stops great with the 4 wheel HD drum brakes due to the fact that the car came equipped with a factory "trailoring" package. Some bubbling on the lower passenger rear quarter, and some rust at the driver's side cowl at the windshield (pics) and that's it for corrosion. Car was shot with undercoating sometime during it's life and is even sprayed on the underside of the hood. Looks kinda "choochy" but the metal has been preserved perfectly! It does have it's dings and scratches but hey, it's 45 years old and is driven. Original sheet metal but you can see that there has been some dent removal on the passenger side rear quarter. For reasons unknown, the previous(or the original) owner, filled the gap between the passenger rear quarter and the trunk spring support with spray foam(pic). (WT....!) Apparently, we were told, that it was the original owner who that "brush" painted the scratches and paint imperfections on the car and he did some poor work. But, on the plus side, the paint matched perfectly and protected the metal. Bumpers, wheels, shocks, brakes, and suspension bushings were replaced by the previous owner. Radiator and the air conditioning compressor are not original. Seats were recovered at one point too with cloth (I'd guess in the '80's) but tastefully done. Guess they didn't want to sit on black vinyl in the California sun. Front carpet needs to be replaced. I also have the original radio that comes with. Tires are practically new Goodyear Eagles. You can drive this Charger to any and all car shows! Or restore it to original if you'd like. I hate to see her sell it but she wants new. Ugh! I've included a bunch of pictures and I'll get pics of the undercarriage up here as soon as the lift becomes available. I'll also get a pic of the engine stamp plate to verify the numbers for you. I think the car is being listed with a very reasonable reserve. If you don't plan on buying and paying for the car, DO NOT BID. CAR IS ALSO FOR SALE LOCALLY AND I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THIS AUCTION AT ANY TIME, DUE TO SALE. All are invited and encouraged to come inspect before bidding. Thanks for your interest and consideration. I will answer any and all questions as quickly as I can. Car and registration will not be released until all funds are cleared by my bank. Cash is nice :) $500 non-refundable deposit due within 2 days of auctions end. Buyer responsible for all transport costs.

Coal-rolling Ram dually does tandem beer-shooting burnout with ATV in bed
Fri, 25 Jul 2014Sometimes a video comes around that just makes you shake your head in disbelief. Take for example these guys from Nebraska in their dually diesel flatbed Ram, doing a smoky burnout. Lighting up the tires is nothing new, but these folks take things a step further by having another guy on an ATV in bed that is also smoking the tires. Finally, people are sitting on a couch in the bed taking the whole show in, as beer cans shoot out of the stacks.
There have been several stories recently about the scourge of rolling coal, i.e., diesel trucks modified to lay down a thick, black smoke screen, sometimes for vaguely political reasons. Whatever your opinion is on it, breathing in this much nasty stuff isn't exactly great for your health. Of course, it turns out that burning rubber is pretty awful, too. Both diesel and tire emissions contain cancer-causing Group 1 carcinogens. Combine them with the cigarette smoking here, and these guys are an oncologist's nightmare. Scroll down to take it all in for yourself. Warning, there is a little explicit language.
Watch the Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat verify its 204-mph top speed
Thu, Jan 29 2015The industry is producing some ridiculously fast four-doors these days, from the Porsche Panamera and Maserati Quattroporte to the Mercedes E63 AMG and BMW M5. But the fastest of them all doesn't cost six figures. It doesn't even come from Europe. It's made right here in North America, by a US automaker. And it starts at under $64k. We're talking about the Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat, the Pentastar muscle sedan with the 6.2-liter supercharged V8 and its 707 horsepower. Dodge claims it's the "quickest, fastest, most powerful [production] sedan ever," and they're not just blowing smoke... or smoking tires. During the final stages of development, engineers from Auburn Hills took a bone-stock, Hellcat-powered Charger out to a seven-mile oval for a top speed run and they filmed the occasion for posterity. The result? 206.9 miles per hour with the wind, 202.2 against it, for a two-way average top speed of 204.55 mph. Chew on that, imports.
Marchionne may stay with FCA until 2020
Mon, Aug 31 2015We might get to see Sergio Marchionne and his vast array of sweaters in the auto industry for even longer than expected. The FCA CEO suggested last year that he would retire from the automaker when its current five-year plan was complete in 2018. Now, he has tentatively extended that point out to at least 2020. "I can do this for another five years if you push me, right? Beyond that, I ain't gonna do it, and I don't want to," he said to Automotive News. That would give Marchionne a 16-year career at the top from joining Fiat in 2004 to possibly leaving FCA in 2020. Although, take the CEO's statement with a grain of salt because he has made multiple statements about the timing for his retirement. In 2012, Marchionne said he would only remain in charge until 2015, which is, well, now. Those five years might also go quite quickly because Marchionne is a busy guy with the Ferrari IPO, the attempted merger with General Motors, implementing FCA's five-year plan, and many other projects. He's already considering the next CEO, though. "My purpose in life is to find the Kuniskises of the world, the Manleys, the Biglands, the Palmers," Marchionne said to Automotive News, referencing the heads at Dodge, Jeep, FCA North America, and the company's chief financial officer, respectively. "I told them, 'One of you is going to do what I do one day. I don't know who that is, but one of you is going to do it.'"
