1970 Dodge Coronet R/t 2-door 383 Cu In. 6.3l V8 With Auto Trans No Reserve! on 2040-cars
Finksburg, Maryland, United States
Up for bid is a unbelievable copper in color 1970 Dodge Coronet R/T with matching numbers that drives like new! This car was born in these gorgeous colors and has been beautifully maintained. Meticulously serviced and garaged it's whole life, this car is truly one of a kind. No major chips or discoloration on the original factory color paint. This paint job has a glass finish with a truly impressive depth of color. The vinyl roof has no rips, tears, or fading. You will not find factory restoration paint job like this one! Satin black Bumble Bee style vinyl stripe on the trunk accents the burnished copper penny paint, while 440 Magnum badges flank the hood.
With a 383 cu. in 6.3L V8 B engine with a four barrel carburetor under the hood, that would become the model Mopar performance engine for the next decade after its inception. Pushing out a impressive 330 gross horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque, this car has all the power and performance you could desire on the street. The 383 would go on to trump the 392 Hemi, with its relatively short stroke making it not only free-revving, but also free-breathing; ideal for true Mopar muscle performance. New valve covers keep this V8 in check and ready for anything the road or driver might have to ask. A factory automatic transmission keeps this car smoothly shifting through gears on the floor, with no issues whatsoever. This set-up packs a serious punch and growls through polished dual exhaust. A near spotless interior with factory leather seats, carpeting, and all accents intact. You will not find a cleaner, better maintained Coronet at this price! The factory front bucket seats with middle center console have no rips, tears, or wear marks and the same follows into the rear seats. The factory seat belts are in wonderful condition, ready for their next hot rod driver and passenger! Factory air conditioning and original tinted glass keep the interior of this muscle car cool and comfortable in even the hottest of weather, while the original factory radio keeps the tunes going on the longest of drives. The dash shows no signs of cracking or fading. The carpeting is in show room shape, with no fading, rips or tears. The newer GT steering wheel adds a clean, polished look to the interior. Dual mirrors on the exterior are crack free with no dents, dings, or noticeable scratching in the chrome. All trim pieces are in fabulous shape and are all intact. 18" & 20" Coy wheels set this piece of American Mopar history apart, and beautifully accent the originality of the car. Tires have great tread, barely been driven since they were put on! The trunk is pristine with the original factory undercoating still intact. This Coronet has a clean title, ready to be put in your name. True miles unknown, but was originally purchased knowing it was a very low mile car. You do not find Mopar muscle with paint and interiors like this one! A/C will need to be charged before use. A beautiful restoration ready for its new owner. Buyer is responsible for pick-up/shipping. Please ask any and all questions before bidding. Can provide additional photos or information upon request. Serious bidders only, fee of $125.00 charged for non-payment on vehicle. |

How to turn a Dodge airport tug into a trail slayer
Sun, 16 Nov 2014Sometimes, having a ton of fun requires takes a ton of work. Just nine days before the so-called Ultimate Adventure 2014, the folks behind 4-Wheel & Off-Road had 40 tasks to complete in order to turn the ratty truck pictured above into a machine that could excel on treacherous off-road trails while still being able to handle highway jaunts. Much of process behind the build was chronicled on the latest episode of Dirt Every Day.
The team's vehicle started life as a 1990 Dodge tug truck that spent part of its life hauling around airplanes. The builders hung on to the Cummins six-cylinder diesel, but they tossed out practically everything else for the project, with some seriously heavy-duty replacement parts for the transmission, transfer case, axles and a whole lot more. The process was certainly a ton of work, but the end result looks like a fantastic crawler.
Sure, it might have been easier to bring a truck that was already prepared, but where would the fun in that have been? Stay tuned until the end of the video for a few glimpses of the completed Dodge and peek at some of the punishment it goes through.
Consumer Reports no longer recommends Honda Civic
Mon, Oct 24 2016Consumer Reports annual Car Reliability Survey is out, and yes, there are some big surprises. First and foremost? The venerable publication no longer recommends the Honda Civic. In fact, aside from the walking-dead CR-Z and limited-release Clarity fuel-cell car, the Civic is the only Honda to miss out on CR's prestigious nod. At the opposite end there's a surprise as well – Toyota and Lexus remain the most reliable brands on the market, but Buick cracked the top three. That's up from seventh last year, and the first time for an American brand to stand on the Consumer Reports podium. Mazda's entire lineup earned Recommended checks as well. Consumer Reports dinged the Civic for its "infuriating" touch-screen radio, lack of driver lumbar adjustability, the limited selection of cars on dealer lots fitted with Honda's popular Sensing system, and the company's decision to offer LaneWatch instead of a full-tilt blind-spot monitoring system. Its score? A lowly 58. The Civic isn't the only surprise drop from CR's Recommended ranks. The Audi A3, Ford F-150, Subaru WRX/STI, and Volkswagen Jetta, GTI, and Passat all lost the Consumer Reports' checkmark. On the flipside, a number of popular vehicles graduated to the Recommended ranks, including the BMW X5, Chevrolet Camaro, Corvette, and Cruze, Hyundai Santa Fe, Porsche Macan, and Tesla Model S. Perhaps the biggest surprise is the hilariously recall-prone Ford Escape getting a Recommended check – considering the popularity of Ford's small crossover, this is likely a coup for the brand, as it puts the Escape on a level playing field with the Recommended Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, and Nissan Rogue. While Ford is probably happy to see CR promote the Escape, the list wasn't as kind for every brand. For example, of the entire Fiat Chrysler Automobiles catalog, the ancient Chrysler 300 was the only car to score a check – there wasn't a single Dodge, Fiat, Jeep, Maserati, or Ram on the list. That hurts. FCA isn't alone at the low end, either. GMC, Jaguar Land Rover, Mini, and Mitsubishi don't have a vehicle on CR's list between them, while brands like Mercedes-Benz, Volvo, Nissan, Lincoln, Infiniti, and Cadillac only have a few models each.

Dodge gives 2015 Viper slight power increase, new GT model
Tue, 02 Sep 2014With its troubling sales figures, the newly rechristened SRT Dodge Viper needs to come out swinging for 2015. To do that, Dodge has made a number of tweaks and changes that will hopefully carry the V10-powered sports car into more successful days.
First up for 2015 is a new GT model, which aims to marry the reasonable price of the base car with the adjustable suspension and trick stability control program of the GTS model. The GT also sports a cabin that's covered in Alcantara suede and Nappa leather as standard.
Also new for 2015 is the SRT TA 2.0 Special Edition, which expands on last year's Viper TA by adding new aerodynamic bits and bobs, including a larger rear wing, which ups downforce at 150 miles per hour from 278 pounds to 400 pounds.
