I'm listing our 1965 Dodge Coronet 440 two door hardtop. The first 4 photos were taken last spring, and the rest were taken this week.  My son bought it in 2012 to work on while in Technical College, but it's not really what he wanted so it's up for sale.  It had been sitting under a shelter in central Georgia for 25+ years when the guy we bought it from got it.  He painted everything under the hood black, red, and silver for some reason, and the wheels blue. He also removed the gas tank and strapped a 5 gallon gas can inside the trunk.  At least he ran a vent line outside the trunk!  The original motor was gone when he got it and it has what is believed to be an early 70's slant six in it now.  Our plan was to put a 383 in it and convert the three on the tree to a floor shift four speed, but it never happened.  It is a driveable project, but needs brakes, floor pans, a gas tank , and a new battery to be road worthy. Odometer now reads 6021, but actual mileage is unknown.  According to the Fender Tag it was originally a 361 big block car with 3 speed manual transmission. It has a three speed manual on the column. It is a manual steering, manual drum brake car. It has the factory remote driver mirror, and variable speed wipers. The variable speed wiper motor works, but one piece of the linkage is missing from under the dash.  The taillamp lenses are cracked.  It still appears to have what's left of the original Dark Turquoise Metallic and White paint. It need a complete restoration to be nice, but it is the most solid unrestored mid 60's Mopar I've seen in a while. The passenger compartment floors are in poor shape, but AMD makes a correct reproduction one piece floor pan for this car. It had some import bucket seats, but I bought a 63 Polara split bench seat to go in it. Both rear quarters need patch panels where the quarter panel rolls under to the trunk drop-off. The front fenders have a very small amount of rust on the lower rear of the wheel openings, and there are a few small holes on the top of the driver fender as shown in one of the photos (with a nickel there for comparison). The trunk floor and the rest of the body is solid, but there are some minor dents and dings present. There is surface rust on the hood with some pitting, but I couldn't find any holes.  Underneath the hood (including the front lip) is clean and solid.  There is no broken or cracked glass, but the windshield is fogging around the edges. The grille and front bumper will need to be replaced. The decklid has a dent and the rear lip of it is badly rusted so it will need to be replaced.  The rear bumper would be a good core for rechroming. The tires have held air ever since we got it and it rolls very easy, but the tires are dryrotted.  I have had the door and ignition locks rekeyed so they match and work smoothly.  If it sells with the buy-it-now option, I will include a set of NOS taillamp lenses. We have a clear Georgia registration for the car in our name because Georgia doesn't require a title on a vehicle this old. I have sold quite a few old vehicles to title state buyers with a notarized bill of sale and a copy of my Georgia registration and none had any problems getting the vehicles titled in their state,  so getting a title in Florida or another title state won't be a problem. Although the car runs and drives, I would recommend trailering it due to the bad brakes/tires.  A deposit of $500 through paypal is required within 24 hours of auction end, and balance due within 7 days.  I will accept personal check for the balance, but neither the car nor the paperwork will be released until the check has had sufficient time to clear the bank. I would consider delivering the car up to 250 miles from Statenville, GA 31648 for $2.10/loaded mile.  If you have any questions or would like to see any other pictures let me know.  Thanks.

FCA CEO Mike Manley will run Americas for Stellantis after PSA merger

Sun, Dec 20 2020

DETROIT — Fiat Chrysler CEO Mike Manley will run operations in the Americas when his company merges with FranceÂ’s PSA Peugeot early next year. FCA Chairman John Elkann announced ManleyÂ’s new post on Friday in a letter to employees. ManleyÂ’s role in the merged company had been a mystery. PSA CEO Carlos Tavares will run the overall company, to be named Stellantis. Shareholders of both companies will vote on the merger Jan. 4 to seal the deal creating the worldÂ’s fourth-largest automaker. The merger is expected to be completed by the end of March. PSA will get six seats on the new companyÂ’s 11-member board, which will be chaired by Elkann. The Americas, especially the U.S., are key to the new companyÂ’s success. Fiat ChryslerÂ’s Jeep and Ram brands are highly profitable, and Tavares has long wanted to sell PSA vehicles in the U.S. Manley has been the Italian-American automakerÂ’s CEO for 2 1/2 years, taking over when Sergio Marchionne died in 2018. Stellantis will have the capacity to produce 8.7 million cars a year, just behind Volkswagen, the Renault-Nissan alliance and Toyota.

Experience the Woodward Dream Cruise in a Dodge Challenger Hellcat

Thu, Aug 20 2015

While Autoblog was consumed by coverage of the increasingly important Monterey Car Week last weekend, there was another big even going on. The Woodward Dream Cruise is significantly lighter in terms of news, but there's no denying that it's a far bigger, and far more egalitarian than what the wine-and-cheese crowd experience on the links at Pebble Beach. The Dream Cruise crams tens of thousands of cars and over a million spectators along a four-lane ribbon of asphalt between Ferndale and Pontiac, MI. What's remarkable aren't these numbers, though, so much as the distances they travel. Owners and admirers come from far and wide, across the United States and in some cases across the globe, to take in the spectacle. This year, local radio and television coverage featured fans that traveled from Japan, Australia, and Europe, just to take in the cruise. Of course, we realize that not everyone can make the pilgrimage to Woodward Avenue. With that fact in mind, we decided to bring a bit of the Dream Cruise to Autoblog with a time-lapse video of the cruise route. You can experience the good (a Lamborghini Gallardo, Chevrolet Chevelle, and Oldsmobile Cutlass 442), the bad (the traffic jams), and the ugly (no, your 2003 Ford Focus does not qualify as a classic, get the hell out of the cruiser lanes). So join us, as we turn off 8 Mile Road behind the wheel of our 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat and run north, through Ferndale, Pleasant Ridge, Royal Oak, Huntington Woods, Berkley, Bloomfield Township, and Bloomfield Hills, before ending up on Wide Track Drive in Pontiac.
