1969 Dodge Charger, perfect project ready for restoration. 318 Engine purrs like a kitten, shifts good, car appears to be all original missing nothing but the radio , some a/c components, and some dash items (see pictures). I have all the trim for the rear window, removed to show the condition. Fender tag, but no build sheet under rear seat (mouse got it). The original door panel tops are in fantastic condition, best I've had. Dash pad has no cracks. I hate to sell it, was going to go with a General Lee clone but decided not to go that route with this one. The car is super straight, hood, fenders doors all look great. Top was vinyl and has typical rust issues, front edge looks great but around rear window it's rough and lead seams need some attention, again just typical stuff for these vinyl top cars. I was going to fix, but decided to list this one time as is before repairs as I prefer to see things before they are covered up. Center console is broken. The brakes need work, but I will insure at least the front brakes will work to be loaded onto a transport. Motor runs really good, shift is crisp, but the brakes definitely need attention. I drained the old gas, changed the oil, some mechanical attention on the car. Turn signals work, brake lights work, headlights turn on but the covers take about 5 minutes to finally open. It's a vacuum thing, have not dug into it. The light under the dash works, first one I've had that that actually worked. Trunk floor is rough, needs lower quarter patches, and the work around the rear window. Floors have some holes. Car had undercoating, so frame rails etc look great. Look at the pinch welds and seams underneath, really nice on this car. I am an honest Ebayer and expect the same from potential buyers. I have sold a number of cars and motorcycles over the past 10 years and have no problem working with international buyers, please check my excellent feedback. All funds must post before the car will leave my garage. I have sold a couple of cars this year to help pay for a few projects in the works, and have a couple more to sell. Car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end this auction at any time. Thanks for looking and happy bidding! |

Dodge unveils Special Service Durango for government fleets
Fri, 18 Oct 2013Straight 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.
1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express in Generation Gap showdown with 1933 Ford Pickup
Fri, 18 Jul 2014Auto enthusiasts love a good debate, whether it's Mustang versus Camaro or Ferrari against Lamborghini. But how about a battle between two very different vintages of classic pickup trucks? In this case, the fight is between a 1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express and a 1933 Ford Model 46 truck with a flathead V8.
The shootout comes courtesy of the internet series Generation Gap, and its concept is super-simple. One guy prefers classics, and the other likes newer rides. They choose a category, pick two vehicles and put them head to head. In this case, neither is exactly modern, though. The Ford is more than old enough to receive Social Security checks, and the Dodge is hardly a young whippersnapper.
Other than both being pickups, these two models were made to serve very different functions. The Li'l Red Express was basically the progenitor of today's muscle trucks, with a big V8 that made it one of the quickest new models in its day (admittedly, 1979 was a rough time for automotive performance). On the other hand, the '33 Ford was just meant to work, with little pretense for anything else. One of the hosts describes it as "the simplest, most difficult" vehicle he's driven because of the tricky double clutchwork necessary to shift gears. Scroll down to watch the video and try to decide which of these two American classics you would rather have in your garage.
FCA CEO Mike Manley will take undefined new role after PSA merger
Wed, Dec 18 2019MILAN — Fiat Chrysler Chief Executive Mike Manley will remain with the new group set to result from a planned merger with French rival PSA-Peugeot, Chairman John Elkann said on Wednesday. In a letter to Fiat Chrysler (FCA) employees on the day the two companies announced a binding agreement for a $50 billion tie-up to create the world's fourth-largest carmaker, Elkann said he was "delighted" that the combined group would be led by current PSA CEO Carlos Tavares. "And Mike Manley, who has led FCA with huge energy, commitment and success over the past year, will be there alongside him," he said. He did not say what position Manley would hold. Elkann — who will chair the new group — said there was still much to be done to complete the merger. "Over the coming months we must work tirelessly and determinedly to fulfill all the approval requirements needed to finalize the commitment we have signed," he said.
