Very rare 1980 Dodge Challenger.  One owner car with only 49,346 miles!  The original owner (who's in her late 80's now) just used this little two door, as grocery getter. It's a fine example of a very low mileage, rust free, California car!  Starts right up, runs good, and goes straight as a arrow. The Power 4 wheel Disc brakes stop great, with no pulling.  Power Steering doesn't leak or make noise.  It's a very simple, economical driver, with a 4 cylinder Mitsubishi engine. Everything works, except the Cruise Control. Probably something simple, but I haven't had time to mess with. I took lots of pictures, and will try to answer all your questions. The hot California sunshine has caused a few cracks to the interior, and blemishes to exterior, here and there. All-in-all, it's pretty nice. Front seats are great, with no holes, tears and feel flexible. Rear seat bottoms (plaid part) do have a few holes, and feel a little brittle. Some of the decorative buckles on the seats are missing. Carpet and headliner are excellent. All glass is great. Windows roll up-and-down with ease. The factory black paint around window trim is starting to deteriorate. The drivers side mirror has a couple of pieces of plastic missing. Looks to be the original spare tire, complete with jack. Trunk is mint!  Body is straight, and does not appear to have any repairs. She did have it repainted back in the late 90's, only because the sunshine had faded and baked off some of the paint. She did not want to have the emblems put back on, so I only have one of the original Challenger scripts that were on the fenders and trunk lid. ( I just placed it there for the photo). Has current registration and tags. Have the clear California Title.  I work full time, so will only be checking emails in the evening, Pacific Time. There are a couple of You-tube video's playing the 70-80's Dodge commercials of these cars.  Found more info on the engine and specs in the eBay parts and accessories literature.  Seems that this car was way ahead of it's time when built. Has a Hemi head 4 cylinder that does not use a smog pump!  As a car enthusiast, and owner of various 60-70's Mopars over the years, I have tried to describe this car to the best of my knowledge. Car is for sale locally. I reserve the right to end auction at any time.  Also, check out the only other one that I could find. It's at Hawaii Craigslist!

Junkyard Gem: 1990 Dodge Colt Vista

Wed, Oct 19 2016

The partnership between Chrysler and Mitsubishi started way back in 1971 and led to plenty of Mitsubishis being sold in the United States as Chryslers, Dodges, Plymouths, and Eagles (plus the use of Mitsubishi engines in all manner of Chrysler-built vehicles). The Colt name – used on a series of Galant-, Lancer-, and Mirage-based cars – became a fairly successful brand for Chrysler, and so it was slapped on Dodge- and Plymouth-badged Mitsubishi Chariots. The Colt Vista wasn't a huge sales success, and you won't see many today, but they had a certain following. Here's a rare '90 that I spotted in a Minneapolis self-service wrecking yard over the summer. Just 114k miles on this one, but the rust got pretty bad and that's the most likely culprit for its junkyardization. These cars made good family haulers, although you wouldn't find many of their 2016 counterparts sporting three pedals. Turbo Tom kept it going for quite a while, but rust never sleeps in Minnesota.

New Viper 'is a possibility,' Sergio Marchionne says

Wed, Jan 13 2016

It was thought the door to the future for the Dodge Viper had closed last year, but Fiat Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne reopened it during his press conference at the 2016 Detroit Auto Show. Marchionne said the current Viper is the only FCA product to use the ZD platform, which "doesn't make sense to me." Yet, "given the architectural development within the brand, there is a possibility that a new version of the Viper may surface." Automobile reports that the company uses a versatile, rear- and all-wheel drive Giorgio platform for Alfa Romeo and Dodge. It will support the Alfa Romeo Giulia (Alfa Romeo's larger BMW 5 Series competitor), the next-generation Dodge Challenger, Charger, and rumored Barracuda, and it could support a new generation of Viper. We're probably talking about a different kind of Viper, though, with Automobile saying, "the current car's truck-based V-10 no doubt would be scrapped along with its platform." A Viper without a V10 doesn't seem like a Viper to us, but we'll wait to see what happens. In the midst of contract negotiations for a new labor agreement between FCA and the United Auto Workers last year, it emerged that the Conner Avenue Assembly plant that builds the Viper hadn't been given any new product after the end of Viper build-out in 2017. That led most to reason that the current Viper would be the end of the 25-year run of America's hairiest sports car. How long we'll be waiting is unknown. Marchionne had no timetable and admitted that a future Viper might not appear on the heels of the current one. With a renewed commitment to being debt-free by 2018, FCA is likely more focused on getting Alfa Romeo running properly and cranking out the volume variants for the Giorgio platform first.
