Huntington Station, New York, United States
Up for offering today is a 1969 Super Bee 440 Six Pack car, 23,000 miles and in the very rare color combination. This was a special order car , Bahama Yellow and Red Bumble Bee striping. The car is absolutely BEAUTIFUL, the paint and bodywork were done to a very high standard. The car was disassembled,repaired,refinished and reassembled. The current owner has owned it for 10 years ++, it was not built to to make a profit,it was done to add to his collection. The underside is as nice as they come, nicely detailed. The vehicle originally came from Wisconsin, 2 owners there, then purchased by an exotic car collector in California. The car was then purchased by its current owner in Long Island,New York. At this point, the collection rarely sees the light of day and the current owner has decided to let some or possibly all the cars go. The Super Bee with the A12 engine conversion package is one of the most sought after factory combinations. The car offered here has its original, engine properly dated and correct sequence #, the engine runs strong, pulls great and sounds like a 440 Six Pack should. Transmission is also correct, both pad stampings can be seen in the photographs.The transmission shifts well, a factory Hurst shifter as well.The Dana 60 rear has 4.10 gearing with sure-grip.The radial "Red Lines" give the car the correct look and allow it to be driven safely. As you can see from the pictures it has great lines, the car will not disappoint any serious buyer. Given the rarity of the car, the unique color combo and the fact that she still sports the driveline she was born with, this should put this car into a very elite group of cars. I do not have the original build sheet,just a copy, it was decoded by Galen Govier,a copy of that is available for information. Please,if you are a serious buyer ,I have all the time in the world , I will help you get it anywhere, I will work with you regarding pre-purchase inspections, I want to help. The current owner is healthy, not getting a divorce and doesn't need to sell, please keep offers real, NO TRADES. The car has gone about 80 miles a year since the current owner has had it, it needs to be used, I have cleaned up the carbs, dropped the fuel tank and cleaned her up, the AM radio is currently not working , the dimmer switch is touchy , the car would benefit from being used more frequently. It is not perfect, but it is attainable for the new owner. I will add a couple of pictures during the auction as it moves along. The high bidder will be responsible for all transport,taxes,fees and associated with the pre-purchase inspection and logistics. A $2,000 non-refundable deposit will be required within 48 hours of auction end. I also will need to exchange contact info and addresses. |

Chrysler recalling 644k more Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs over brakes
Wed, 02 Apr 2014Early last month, we reported on Chrysler issuing a preemptive, proactive recall for about 25,000 units of the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango. The issue revolved around a brake system that wasn't causing any actual problems, but delivered an unsatisfactory brake feel, so Auburn Hills called in a good 25,000 of SUVs around the world, including 18,700 in the United States.
Now Chrysler, having apparently determined that the brake problem on its sport utes is actually much bigger than it initially realized, has drastically broadened the scope of the recall. As a result, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for precisely 655,354 examples of the Grand Cherokee and Durango, covering the 2011 through 2014 model years. In addition, Chrysler is recalling 42,380 units in Canada, 21,376 in Mexico and 159,685 overseas.
The problem which Chrysler found revolves around the brake booster, whose center shell has been found to be subject to corrosion, allowing water to get into the brake system. That water in turn could freeze, preventing the brakes from working as well as expected.
Motorweek goes retro with '80s hot hatch shootout
Mon, 03 Nov 2014Motorweek's decades of history on television make it the perfect medium to look back into the automotive past and see how things are different now. It recently added old road test videos to its YouTube channel of the Acura NSX and Toyota Supra, as well as the Ferrari F40. For one of its newest flashback clips, Motorweek has exhumed an affordable five-car challenge of 1986's premiere hot hatches.
By today's standards, this is an eclectic field that features fondly remembered classics like the Volkswagen GTI 16-valve and Acura Integra. However, it also throws in some nearly forgotten contenders like the Dodge Colt Turbo and Ford Escort GT. The angular Toyota Corolla FX16 GT-S rounds out the group.
It's fascinating to watch Motorweek run the quintet through the slalom, down the drag strip and on various roads. What's most striking in this clip is the difference in the definition of a performance car between then and now. With its 16-valve, 1.8-liter four-cylinder, the GTI is the burliest of the contenders with 123 horsepower, but it still takes 8.8 seconds to reach 60 miles per hour. By today's standards, that would make it a plain-jane economy car, and not even a particularly quick one.
How Dodge dealers are earning the right to sell Hellcats
Wed, 10 Sep 2014We all hate the idea of the dreaded dealer markup when it comes to buying a highly anticipated new car. Take the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, for example. You might spend hours reading about its supercharged V8 and speccing the model just right in the configurator, but when it finally comes down to laying down the cash, the dealer adds thousands of dollars as a "market adjustment" on the muscle machine of your dreams. As it turns out, when the Hellcat starts hitting showrooms in the third quarter, Dodge is trying to make sure that's not the case.
Dealer orders for the much-hyped Hellcat recently started, but Dodge boss Tim Kuniskis has put some special caveats in place to ensure that the Hellcat makes it to the road quickly. The initial allocation is based on the number of Dodge products that a showroom has sold in the last 180 days, and a second allotment in December is based on the last 90 days of sales and 30-day turnover. "You sell a lot of Darts for me, Journeys for me, Durangos for me, I'm going to give you the rights to this one, too, because this is a halo of the brand," said Kuniskis to Automotive News.
Furthermore, how quickly the Hellcat sells is also going to decide whether showrooms get more of them. "If you want to market-adjust the car, that's your right. But if your days-on-lot goes above what the other guys that are selling them at MSRP is, they will end up earning the allocation because their days-on-lot will be lower," he said to Automotive News. Obviously, this doesn't prevent dealers from marking up the Challenger SRT, but the strategy certainly discourages it.
