This is a rare 1968 Dodge Super Bee (VIN WM21H8A342940) with '68 Hemi Engine owned by 2nd owner since September of
1971 (44 years). This vehicle was purchased in the Monterrey Bay area of California, and has never seen salt or
snow. The body has no rust anywhere. It was driven back to Wisconsin in July of 1973, stored that winter, then
spent the next 20 years as a drag racing car. It was always trailered to the race tracks (Great Lakes, Byron &
Wisconsin International Raceway). In 1994 it was stored under cover on cement in my Pole Building until the winter
of 2005-6, when it was put back in street trim for local use and the 2006 Hot Rod Power Tour, then was involved in
9 Power Tours in total, including the 2015 tour. During this time it had 2 articles in Hot Rod Magazine (November
2006 &2014)..
The car has had many modifications over the years, especially for Power Tour. Here's the list as currently in use:
Engine: 1968 426 Hemi engine, acquired in 1976. It currently is bored .020” oversize with Keith Black
Hypereutectic 9.5 to 1 pistons, standard Kellogg crankshaft, with stock 7/16” connecting rods, balanced, Custom

MegaSquirt ECU. Exhaust system is stock Hemi iron manifolds with custom 2 1/2” dual exhaust with crossover, and
turbo mufflers. In the current setup it has gotten a best of 18 MPG at highway speeds.
Transmission: Highly modified GM 700R4 4 Speed automatic with lockup. A TCI adapter mates the trans with the
engine. The mechanical parts are all from a 4L70e and aftermarket. The valve body is from TCI and eliminates the

Weekly Recap: New bosses try to jump-start Cadillac and Lincoln

Both of America's domestic luxury brands seem to be stuck in neutral.
It's ironic that Cadillac and Lincoln got new bosses within days of each other this month. It's also a commentary on the fact both of America's domestic luxury brands seem to be stuck in neutral.

Junkyard Gem: 1992 Dodge Shadow America

Tue, Aug 2 2016

A quarter-century ago, most Americans looking for a cheap transportation appliance went for cars like the miserably-stripped-down-but-bulletproof Toyota Tercel or the feature-laden-but-reliability-challenged Hyundai Excel. Chrysler, having just discontinued the elderly "Omnirizon" platform, took the Dodge Shadow and its Plymouth sibling, the Sundance and offered a car that was bigger, more powerful, and better-equipped than just about anything else for the price: the America! These cars depreciated hard and nearly all were crushed a decade ago, so sightings are extremely rare today. Here's one that I found in a Northern California self-service yard. This one still had windshield paperwork indicating that it was an insurance-company auction car (probably totaled in a fender-bender that caused $200 worth of damage) and that it was a runner at the time it got junked. Such is the fate of 24-year-old economy cars in rough shape. The Shadow was a member of the many-branched K-Car family tree, and the Shadow America came with the same 2.2-liter straight-4 engine that powered millions of Caravans, Daytonas, New Yorkers, and Lasers. You got more torque than the competition, plus a driver's-side airbag instead of the maddening automatic seat belts found in other low-priced cars of 1992. Of course, the paint tended to peel off within a few years and the build quality of the Shadow was hit-or-miss, but these cars were way nicer to drive than, say, a Tercel EZ or Subaru Justy.

Fiat Chrysler to get $105M fine from NHTSA for recall woes

Sun, Jul 26 2015

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is about to send a powerful message to automakers doing business in the United States, assuming reports of an upcoming $105 million fine against Fiat Chrysler Automobiles comes to fruition. In addition to the record-setting monetary fine, according to The Wall Street Journal, FCA will have to accept an independent auditor that will monitor the company's recall and safety processes and will be forced to buy back certain recalled vehicles. In other cases, such as with Jeep Grand Cherokee and Liberty models with gas tanks that could potentially catch fire in certain types of accidents, FCA will offer financial encouragement for owners to get their recall work done or to trade those older vehicles in on new cars, according to the report. FCA could reportedly reduce its fines if it meets certain conditions, though those remain unclear at this time. These actions against FCA are being taken after NHTSA began a probe into the automaker over almost two dozen separate instances where the government claims FCA failed to follow proper procedures for recalls and safety defects. Included in those safety lapses are more than 11 million vehicles currently in customer hands. These penalties and fines are separate from the investigation over security problems with Chrysler's Uconnect system that allowed hackers to obtain remote access into key vehicle systems in 1.4 million vehicles.
