BEAUTIFUL GROUND POUNDING 1965 Dodge Coronet When it came to all-out performance in 1965 there was certainly a name in town and it went by the name of Dodge. Most gearheads began to take notice of the division's industrial strength coronet after it set eight speed records during the 1963 NHRA season. And once that same car kicked off the 1964 NASCAR season with a Richard Petty led 1-2-3 finish at the Daytona 500 the brand was firmly established as one of Detroit's premier sources of power and speed. This 1965 Dodge Coronet was built with attention to detail and always draws crowds at the local shows. Below are some brief details of the build. -This beautiful rustfree car was dissembled and stripped to bare metal. A fresh coat of Dodge Maroon was applied and then clear coated. The trim was polished and bumpers and taillight bezels were rechromed. Many NOS parts were used in the restoration including the grille. The trunk was done in the correct two tone spackle. -The interior was restored including seats, door panels, and headliner. The dash is super nice. -The driveline of this beast consists of a vintage 1970 440 Block, 10-1 Compression, worked 906 heads, Lunati Hot Street cam, Aluminum Edelbrock intake with a Demon Carb, 727 Trans(Manual Valve Body) with shift kit, 11 inch Street fighter converter, Complete 3" Exhaust with DynoMax mufflers. -The car sits on new tires(Drag Radials) with torq thrust wheels bolted to a 8 3/4" with 355 Gears, Drag shocks, Super stock springs, disc brakes. So this is the magic formula, all wrapped up in a low-key package and ready to rock. The drive train is virtually bulletproof, the parts are all high quality, and the workmanship is very good. The 440 was placed in a body that was ment to have a smaller implant therefor you have a very potent street fighter that isn’t ashamed to show up at the local cruise and pop the hood. This is another one of those cars that you just couldn’t duplicate for the asking price. And did I forget to mention that its an original bigblock 383 car? And just try to find a similar Coronet anywhere! Set up to run, fully sorted, and 100% reliable, this is a lot of fun in an inexpensive package. 260-225-9373 Below is a short video of the car: |

Brits recreate iconic Bullitt chase scene
Tue, 13 May 2014Recreating the famous chase scene from Bullitt has become almost an art form in its own right. We've seen it done in a music video, with scale models and even in commercials. There are few films that are as defined by a single scene as the 1968 classic. Even if you don't know a single beat of the plot, the Highland Green Ford Mustang racing a Dodge Charger through the hilly streets of San Francisco is famous. It's so well known that the Silverstone Classic has created a homage to promote its celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Mustang at this year's event in July.
Filmed around the famous UK circuit, the short film generally gets the key points of the scene right. It even has a green Volkswagen Beetle that keeps reappearing, as in the movie. Unfortunately, its Steve McQueen stand-in looks a little too old for the role. While the video shortens the chase considerably, it's still great to see these '60s behemoths leaning and sliding around the track. Scroll down for a touch of nostalgia thanks to one of the greatest scenes ever in cinema - we've got both the recreation and the original chase seen from the movie waiting for you.
How fracking is causing Chrysler minivans to sit on Detroit's riverfront
Fri, 25 Apr 2014It's fascinating the way that one change to a complex system can have all sorts of unintended consequences. For instance, there are hundreds of new Chrysler Town and County and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans built in Windsor, Ontario, sitting in lots on the Detroit waterfront because of the energy boom in the Bakken oil field in the northern US and parts of Canada.
The huge amount of crude oil coming from these sites mostly use freight trains for transport, and that supply boom has resulted in a shortage of railcars to carry other goods. According to The Windsor Star, North American crude oil transport by train has gone from 9,500 carloads in 2008 to 434,032 carloads in 2013. Making matters worse, some North American rail infrastructure is still damaged because of this year's harsh winter, and that's slowing things down even further.
Chrysler admits to The Star that it has had some delivery delays due to the freight train shortage. In the meantime, it's using more trucks to deliver its vehicles. Trucking is a far less economical solution, partially because a train can carry so many more units at one time, but alternatives are slim. The Windsor plant alone has a deal for 33 trucks to distribute the minivans around Canada and the Midwestern US.
Small number of 2013 Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger models recalled
Sun, 24 Feb 2013A small number of units of the 2013 Chrysler 200 (inset) and 2013 Dodge Avenger are being recalled over a broken control valve in the fuel tank assembly. The potential 1,785 sedans were manufactured late last year, and if affected with a broken control valve could suffer from stalling or fuel leakage.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration notes that the recall should begin next month, at which time owners can take their cars to dealers for repair free of charge. The full release with more information is just below.
