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.

Chrysler, Nissan minivans earn 'dire' crash test results, says IIHS [w/video]

Fri, Nov 21 2014

First introduced in 2012, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's small-overlap frontal crash test has become the bane of many auto engineers' existence. It's a particularly steep design challenge because it forces just 25 percent of a vehicle's front end to take the brunt of a 40-mile-per-hour impact. The newly released results of four family-minded minivans underscore just how difficult the crash test is: only one scored an Acceptable rating, and the other three did very poorly. The 2008-2015 Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan, plus the 2011-2015 Nissan Quest, all received Poor ratings in the test, the IIHS' lowest possible score. The three of them showed significant crash intrusion into the driver's area. The dummy in the Nissan actually had to be cut out of the vehicle, with an IIHS spokesperson remarking, "the structure collapsed like a house of cards." In the Fiat Chrysler Automobile vans, the steering wheels moved out of the way, making the airbag less effective and letting the driver's head hit the dashboard. While it was not actually crashed, the agency is also giving the 2009-12 Volkswagen Routan a Poor score because it shares a structure with the FCA models. The newly released results of four minivans underscore just how difficult the small-offset crash test is. The refreshed 2015 Toyota Sienna (shown), conversely, earned an Acceptable rating and is also a Top Safety Pick+ because of its optional forward collision warning and automatic braking system. While the crash test dummy moved around during the impact more than the agency would have liked, sensors showed a low risk of injuries. The IIHS tested the Honda Odyssey last year, and it earned a Good overall score, the agency's best ranking. It's also a Top Safety Pick+ vehicle. The only member of the minivan segment left to test is the latest Kia Sedona, and the Institute is reportedly waiting a little longer for Kia to make changes to improve the model's performance. When reached for comment, Nissan spokesperson Steve Yaeger provided Autoblog with the following statement: "Nissan is committed to vehicle safety and believes that consumers should have information about crash protection so they can make educated buying decisions. Nissan is proud of the 2014 Quest's "good" rating in the IIHS front moderate overlap and side impact tests as well as a "good" head restraint rating.

Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014

Thu, 27 Feb 2014

Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.

Dongfeng and PSA extend Chinese joint venture

Thu, Dec 19 2019

BEIJING/PARIS — China's Dongfeng and Peugeot maker PSA are extending their business cooperation, despite the Chinese company reducing its stake in PSA to help smooth the French carmaker's merger with Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA). Dongfeng said on Thursday it had agreed with PSA to extend the duration of their joint venture Dongfeng Peugeot Citroen Automobiles (DPCA). Under the deal, the venture could get the rights to PSA's new brands in China and will benefit from new technologies and intellectual properties, the Chinese company said. PSA was not immediately available for comment. The announcement comes a day after the companies said Dongfeng would reduce its 12.2% stake in PSA by selling 30.7 million shares to the French company. Analysts said the move could smooth U.S. regulatory approval for PSA's roughly $50 billion (GBP38.97 billion) merger with Italian-American carmaker FCA. The sale of Dongfeng's shares in PSA, worth around 680 million euros ($757 million), will leave the Chinese group holding around 4.5% of the merged PSA-FCA, which is set to become the world's fourth-biggest carmaker by sales volumes. "As the cooperation between Dongfeng and PSA deepens, we expect the joint venture to continue making good progress in China," a Dongfeng representative said. On a conference call, Dongfeng said DPCA would have exclusive rights to PSA's Opel cars should the partners agree to bring the brand to China, and enjoy lower prices on car parts imported from PSA. Earlier this year, a document seen by Reuters showed Dongfeng and PSA plan to cut jobs at Wuhan-based DPCA and reduce its number of car plants to try to make the venture more profitable.
