Woodlawn, Virginia, United States

Up for sale is a 1969 Dodge Coronet Super Bee 2-dr.  It came out with a 383 engine, but now has a 440 in it - serial number is 25364305 on the block, year built 9/28/1967, makes it a 1968 engine - auto tranny 373 positive traction rear end.  It has long tube headers, with dual exhaust turned down at the rear bumper.  It has power steering and I have driven this car about 20 miles. It runs great and the tranny shifts perfect. It has good power.  The carburetor that i drove it with came from my wife's mustang.  I will have a used one on it before the end of sale. The chrome for the windshield and the back glass, are in the trunk of the car.  I was told when i bought the car, that it was a 1 family owner car: mother and son.  This car has a very straight body, but will need lower front and rear quarter panel patches; and about 16x16 inches in trunk pan - rest is pretty solid; need front floor pans; about 6x16' on rear floor pans where your feet sit; but the rest of the car has surface rust from sitting behind barn for the last 24 years.  The passenger side fender can be repaired, but I have one to go with it.  The interior is all original; the back seat and side panels are in really good shape; the front needs redone; also the front door panels and headliner will need replaced.  The driver's door shuts, but will need the latch replaced and some minor welding.  All of the glass is original, with no cracks; windows roll up & down with ease, even though I drove this car, I would not drive very far.  It stops good, but the brake master cylinder has small leak; also the radiator has several pinhole leaks, but is original.  All the lights work, but the right front signal light doesn't work.  It maybe the housing ?? It comes with a new front end kit, ball joints, upper and lower outer tie rods, and bushings.  The only thing I can find missing, is the radio face plate and the bumble bee emblem that goes in the grille and deck lid.  I am sure I missed something.  Ask questions and I'll answer them as soon as possible.  The vin number will be on the title if you want to decode it.   I am sorry, the cowl tag and the build sheet was missing when purchased.  I have the previous owner's name and number.  Thanks Gene. 276-733-9798 or 276-235-1904.  Happy bidding.

Top torque-to-weight ratios under $100k, $50k and $25k

Tue, 07 Oct 2014

Horsepower may steal a lot of headlines, but the always-more-complex torque figure is often a critical one for both the workingman and the motoring playboy. The measure of rotational force represents the twist that can liquefy one's tires or haul one's horse trailer. Good stuff.
It follows then, that as with the horsepower-to-weight list that we assembled for you a few months ago, a list of cars that offer the most pound-feet with the fewest pounds to carry, is an interesting one to break down. Sure, there's a big difference in how the torque is applied from a turbocharged six-cylinder in a Swedish luxury sedan and a massive heavy-duty truck's turbo-diesel. But being the car/stat geeks that we are, we think it's kinda neat that those two vehicles rank near each other where torque and weight intersect.
As with the horsepower list, we've given you figures as pounds per every one pound-foot. Again broken down into broad price categories, we've got a mixed bag of 2014 and 2015 models here, too. Every effort has been made to select the most up-to-date prices and specs, and we've also to omitted some '14 cars that won't be re-upped after the ongoing yearly changeover.

Detroit's new fleet of donated police cars have safety issues [w/video]

Wed, 23 Oct 2013

In a show of generosity in mid-August, Detroit's business leaders donated $8 million to the Police Department and Fire Department in order to buy 100 new police vehicles and 23 EMS ambulances. But now officers have discovered - and complained - that the police vehicles have glaring safety issues, Deadline Detroit reports. It is not made clear what models of the fleet vehicles - which include police versions of the Ford Taurus, the Chevrolet Caprice and the Dodge Charger - are affected by the safety issues.
Officers reportedly have complained that the Plexiglass partition separating front-seat officers and back-seat prisoners is easily breached, and that the front passenger seat is installed too close to the dashboard. Prisoners who manage to writhe out of their handcuffs can bend the Plexiglass and reach into the cockpit, and sitting too close to the dashboard can render airbags more dangerous and make officers more vulnerable to injury in a crash.
Mark Diaz, president of the Detroit Police Officers Association, received the complaints and reportedly said the vehicles would get safety updates addressing the issues. But Deadline Detroit reports that it checked some of the offending police cars and, as of the last few days, they hadn't been updated.

11 vehicles from Barrett-Jackson Las Vegas worth watching

Fri, 26 Sep 2014

This weekend will see the world's collector car crowds descend on Las Vegas, NV for one of the biggest shows on Barrett-Jackson's popular auction circuit. There are hundreds of vehicles up for bidding, ranging from a brand-new Lamborghini Aventador to a spattering of Art Deco classics and a huge swath of classic muscle cars.
While it's virtually impossible to assemble an inarguable list of the best cars coming during the three-day, 700-plus vehicle auction, we've sifted through the listings for this year's show - it was a tough assignment, we promise - and assembled a list of what we think will be some of the most interesting lots. We'll admit, it's a bit heavy on American iron, but if you browse BJ's listings, you'll come to a similar conclusion. Still, scroll down for our list of what we think will be the most interesting vehicles at the upcoming auction.
