1956 Dodge Coronet Lancer on 2040-cars
Springfield, Oregon, United States
|
Here's a car you don't see too often... a 1956 Dodge Coronet Lancer, 2-dr H/T. It is almost complete, but still a project. Here is the description: BODY: very straight, some patches of surface rust here and there. There is a small area under each tail light unit with some holes, as shown in close-up. All the trim is there, with the exception of the LANCER script on each front fender, and the DODGE script on hood. Some other trim pieces that don't appear in photos are in the trunk. The antenna is gone, though. This is a really solid car, in it's original gold & white 2-tone colors. One tail light needs a red lens - it has 2 clear ones. Chrome on front grill pieces is excellent. Bumpers are straight but OK, and need re-chromed. GLASS: Driver's side window is cracked, and windshield has some delaminating going on one side (see close-up) ENGINE: This V8 Red Ram is a 315 ci poly motor. It came from a '56 Dodge Royal donor car - it ran great when it was installed 3 years ago. Still needs linkage hooked up. Radiator has been rebuilt. I'm not sure about tranny, but the donor cars was a driver, so I'm sure it is OK. TIRES: they hold air - that's about it. INTERIOR: It needs totally redone. The original seat covers are still on seats. Door panels are good for patterns only. All door handles & window cranks are in a box. Dash looks pretty good too. I have 3 complete extra dashes, so if you need a part, I have it most likely. Floors have been patched; drivers side has new piece welded in, and the floor is covered in what looks like fiberglass painted silver...not sure what that process was. But it feels solid. No headliner, but bows are in trunk. Trunk has one area of rust holes on left, as shown in close-up. The bottom of the spare tire well is even solid! This would make a really great project - it's all there and solid. Unfortunately there is no title to this car. It has Oregon license plates from 1956, ( 8E 1233) and the DMV shows nothing on record; it's been out of the loop a long time. I will provide Bill of Sale. Arranging transport is buyer's responsibility, but I will help on this end, such as towing it to a pick-up area. Any questions feel free to call or email me: (Terry) 541-726-8467 eves PST Good luck bidding! You won't be disappointed.... PS Several photos did not load properly; I can email them upon request

Chrysler recalls AWD 300, Charger, Ram 1500 over ZF transmission
Tue, 24 Dec 2013What do the Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Ram 1500 all have in common? Yes, they're all Chrysler products, and two of them are based on the same platform. And we're sure you could find more similarities between them all, but the common trait we're looking at here is that, while they all come standard in rear-drive form, they're also available with all-wheel drive. And it's the transmission in those models that's the subject of the latest recall notice issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
The output shaft on the eight-speed automatic transmission supplied by ZF to Chrysler for the AWD versions of the 300, Charger and Ram 1500 is apparently prone to fracture. That in the end could leave the vehicle without power and could, according to the NHTSA investigation, increase the chance of a crash. The vehicle could also roll away if even if left in Park without the handbrake applied.
That's why Chrysler is calling in 4,194 examples of those three models from the 2013 model year. Dealers will be responsible for inspecting the transmissions and, where necessary, replace the entire unit. See the full recall notice below for all the details.
2013 Dodge Charger SRT8 Super Bee
Tue, 12 Mar 2013I can pinpoint the exact moment when I fell in love with this car. It was starting down a nearly straight entrance ramp at 15 miles per hour when I buried the throttle. In a moment, I was thrown back into my seat as the big SRT8's engine came to life with commensurate sound, fury and force, bringing me up to 75 mph in what felt like two blinks of an eye. This thing feels so much quicker than its 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque would lead you to believe. And mashing the right pedal never, ever gets old.
But beyond sheer speed, I found a whole lot to like about the Charger SRT8 during my week with the Pitch Black test car here in Detroit. And while the whole Super Bee kit isn't really my style, it's really easy to overlook those badges for a package that offers so much for so little.

Mopar '14 teased, returns to Challenger
Wed, 16 Oct 2013Every year, Mopar selects one special vehicle from the Chrysler portfolio and creates its own, one-off, special edition. Previously, there was the Mopar '13 Dart, '12 300, '11 Charger and the '10 Challenger, and for 2014, this teaser image shows that the company will be giving the unique treatment to Dodge's muscle coupe yet again.
Mopar has not revealed any details about its '14 Challenger, though the brand's president and CEO, Pietro Gorlier, says that "This limited-edition ride is for muscle-car fans who love high octane and customizable performance." All we know is, it's white, has some blue stripes, and a black (or carbon fiber) rear spoiler.
We'll know more when the Mopar '14 Challenger is revealed at the SEMA show in early November. In the meantime, click the image above to check out the teaser in high resolution, and have a look below for Chrysler's official press blast.
