1957 Dodge Coronet

Hello Classic Mopar and Exner big fin car fans! Here is a mostly complete, all original and unmolested 1957 Dodge Coronet post car - 2 door sedan. Showing only 49,706 miles. Believed to be original, but although very unlikely, could be 149,706. Car has quite a lot of good things going for it, but also has bad/severe rust issues. Partial rust through damage on driver side floor pan by rocker side, rocker side itself, some on trunk pan, mostly at rear. Bottom of quarter panels and rocker panels eaten through in some places, some scaling, pitting and other misc. rust damage at bottom of trunk lid, panels, frame, etc. The car certainly could be restored but quite a bit of panel replacement work and/or metal fabrication and repairing would be required. The in-line 6 cylinder engine had the top (head) removed quite some time ago by the previous owner(s); it sits loosely on top of the engine now. Unknown if engine turns, it is safe to assume that it does not and could need to be replaced, but maybe not. Push button transmission, most likely Fireflite, perhaps 727 Torqueflite. Except for these two big items (rust and engine), the rest of the car is actually in pretty remarkably good condition. The bumpers are in great shape, as well; they are straight and shine brightly. The trimwork is in great condition too. The same with the dash, instrument panel. grille (check the photo of the grille emblem - looks great), etc. The glass and windshield are in excellent condition; no cracks, holes or damage. The door panels and upholstery are in fair condition, but are somewhat dried up. Unbelievably, the seats still have the original plastic covers on them!

This big fin late 50's Mopar begs to be restored, but the body work will not be for the faint of heart. I did buy this car together with a 1957 Dodge Custom Royal 2 door hardtop - see my other auction currently running - a red & white car - with the intent of restoring it and/or to use as a perfect donor for a few items that the Custom Royal needed parts exchanged and/or replaced with. However, I got busy and life happened/changed and I never got to it. Although I love cars, I unfortunately do not have the knowledge or the experience to work on them and I have no choice but to have to use shops and other people for everything I do and they are not cheap! Now, as I am moving and my storage situation has changed, I have decided to pass the torch to someone with more experience , time and enthusiasm and hope that they will be able to bring this cool, original survivor back to its former glory or, at the very least turn it into a very nice driver. They don't make cars like this anymore you know and they are harder to find as time goes by. You always see a lot of classic muscle at car shows, but seldom enjoy any big fin late 50's and they always do bring attention and deserved appreciation. It is my wish to see this car being acquired by a similarly appreciative person.

I would entertain/prefer to sell both cars together as they are the perfect match for each other in terms of restoration ease as well as transaction and shipping details. Please call me with any questions at 303-941-1765. You are welcome and encouraged to look at the cars in person before bidding, but the photos should be quite helpful in assisting you to make a good decision. Bid with confidence - see my 100% positive feedback.

Thanks for your interest in my auction(s) - Happy and successful bidding!

Dodge offers 100 years of solid advice in new ad

Fri, 18 Apr 2014

This is a cool ad. Dodge, which is celebrating its centennial this year, recruited some of its peers to see what you should and shouldn't do in life. Of course, some are obvious - don't complain, learn from your mistakes and live for now.
Then again, some are less obvious. Some, actually, are downright awesome. Towards the end, each piece of advice is interspersed with clips of Dodge's redesigned Challenger smoking its tires. Really, this ad feels like it'd be worthy of a Super Bowl spot. This commercial's personal nature is really in keeping with some of the big game's most interesting ads, like the Imported From Detroit commercial, the Farmer ad and Maserati's surprise clip from this year's game.
Take a look below and let us know what you think.

Dodge Charger and Challenger go Plum Crazy for Woodward Dream Cruise

Wed, Aug 12 2015

Dodge will be rolling through a purple haze at the 2015 Woodward Dream Cruise on August 15 with the reintroduction of Plum Crazy to the color options on most trims of the 2016 Challenger and Charger. To premiere the latest use of the wild shade, the brand's display at the annual Detroit-area automotive event will be showing off violet versions of the 2016 Dodge Challenger 392 Hemi Scat Pack Shaker and Charger R/T Scat Pack. The brash tone originally debuted in 1970, but Dodge has kept the lavender hue special in recent years by limiting the option to specific trims. It was last offered during the 2014 model year on R/T and SRT trims of the two vehicles. Practically any buyer will be able to go Plum Crazy if they want. On the Challenger, the color will be available on the SXT Plus, R/T models, Hemi Scat Pack Shaker, SRT 392, and SRT Hellcat trims. The choices for the Charger will be similarly broad, including the SXT when ordered with 20-inch wheels, R/T versions, SRT 392, and SRT Hellcat. Customers desperately wanting a vehicle in the insanely violet shade will be able to place the first orders in September, and dealers will get the chance from October through the end of the year. Production of the lavender muscle cars will then commence in November. Dodge Debuts Plum Crazy Heritage Hue for 2016 Challenger and Charger at Woodward Dream Cruise, Provides Collector-demanded Production Numbers for High-impact Paint Colors New 2016 Dodge Challenger 392 HEMI Scat Pack Shaker and Charger R/T Scat Pack Models in Plum Crazy Will Be Shown at the Dodge Display at 13 Mile and Woodward Ave in Royal Oak, Mich.

Dodge engineers trying to shoehorn Pentastar into Dart?

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

The fact that the Dart's launch has been a pretty dismal affair isn't what we'd call secret. Judging by its mounting inventories and poor critical reception, Dodge's successor to its unloved Caliber has struggled since it hit the market. And while both of those are difficult problems to address, at least their cause is well known - the powertrain.
Even Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne has acknowledged that the powertrain options in the Dart are substandard, admitting at January's Detroit Auto Show that the powertrains are "less than ideal." Leading with the 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder found in the Fiat 500 Abarth left a bad taste in the mouths of consumers thanks to the laggy engine and dead throttle response (to say nothing of the manual and dual-clutch gearboxes that needed more refinement). The addition of the 184-horsepower 2.4-liter Tigershark in the Dart GT has helped matters some, but apparently Auburn Hills doesn't think it's quite enough.
If rumors are to be believed - get that salt ready - a possible solution may be in the works. A report from Allpar is claiming that Dodge is considering fitting a Pentastar V6 into the Dart's engine bay. As the Mopar-obsessed website points out, the critically acclaimed Pentastar is available in three different sizes - 3.0 liters, 3.2 liters and the original 3.6 liters. We don't get the 3.0 here in the US, but the 3.2 can be found in the new Jeep Cherokee and the 3.6 has been seemingly fitted to every model Chrysler can shoehorn it into.
