Ok, I am letting go of my beloved General Lee Charger. Due to circumstances out of my control, here is your chance. Feel free to ask anything because I am VERY thorough and I know this car front to back, inside and out. I will give you an honest description of my car for better or worse. I have invested a lot of money, blood, sweat and tears into this car. This car looks amazing in pictures but is in NO WAY near a $75,000 show car. Bid with 100% confidence. This car is by far the most fun I have ever had owning a car and was a "bucket list" item for me. Now it is time to pass it on.
This car has been a General Lee since the late 1980's-early 1990's. I found it in a field. It was in need of everything from brakes, interior, rear end to motor and transmission. I bought it with the intention of NEVER selling it. Therefore I spent a fortune on it. This car has had a colorful life. The car has a rough look to it which makes people assume that it is a "real" General Lee when they see it. Overall the car starts, runs and drives GREAT! Just a fun car to take the kids out in, drive in parades or just draw a crowd anywhere. Body: This car is a 1970 Charger with a '69 front clip. The lower quarter panels are full of old Bondo and dated, poor body work. Pics say a lot but I will answer any specifics you may have anytime! Front subframe could use a repair or replaced, but rears appear to be solid. Paint on the front end, roof and trunk lid is different from the doors and quarters. Looks close but still obviously a shade different. Dents, dings, scratches and so on. There has been bondo work done to the surrounding of the rear window as well. Not sure what was going on there. Trunk pan is in rough shape but was replaced at some point with something else. Most of the body work appears to have been done by hillbilly professionals prior to my acquisition of the car lol. Interior: All factory original seats professionally reupholstered. The floors had been patched up front with factory style patch panels and looked pretty good. Interior panels painted tan but done nicely. Speedometer works. Thats it. No other gauges work. Aftermarket oil, temp and fuel gauges work. Horn works perfect though. Stereo with Ipod jack and vintage Cobra CB works great! All exterior lights work fine (Hi/Lo, turn, brake and so on) and so does the dome light. Headlight doors do NOT open and are not hooked up to anything. They have to be manually opened for night time driving. I met Jimmy Best (Rosco) in person and had him sign my glove box lid. Roll bar is as close as I could get to TV show quality. It is muffler tubing and all welded together and bolted to the floor. It would NOT protect you in a roll over! Engine/Trans: Engine is a STRONG '66 model 383 Commando V8 4bbl with a Weiand intake and new Edelbrock #1406 4bbl. New starter, all new electronic ignition system, alt., radiator, hoses, and so on. Engine runs SMOOTH and has tons of power! No smoke or issues. 727 Torque Flight transmission shifts STRONG too! Car is FAST and will burn the tires off! Suspension: I installed a new front disc brake conversion kits including spindles, sway bar bushings, lower ball joints, rotors, calipers and so on. Front end NEEDS a proper alignment. I never did have it aligned after the work was completed. Wheels are Vector "01" Limited General Lee editions. Rear end is an 8 3/4 #741 case with 3:55 gears. All new rear brake lines and shoes. New gas tank as well and sender. In closing we have had a TON of fun with this car. YES it is rough around the edges, YES it needs a few this and thats but it is more fun than anything I have EVER owned. People walk right past $50,000 hot rods to line up and get pictures in this car. No joke. Anyway, SERIOUS buyers only please. Always here to help with shipping. Please do not email asking "What's your bottom dollar". I have priced the car accordingly and it is VERY reasonable for a BIG BLOCK, TAN INTERIOR, DISC BRAKE General Lee! Car is titled, insured and plated to me. Clear title in hand. Also I am not interested in ANY trades of ANY kind. If the car does not sell here in this listing, it will NOT be relisted. It will remain in my garage. Thanks and best of luck to all! (812)631-9244 Car is sold "As Is" and "Where Is" obviously. I welcome and encourage potential buyer to come and inspect the car in person. We can take it for a drive! I prefer "cash on the barrelhead" but will take a cashiers' check. NO PAYPAL for full amount! Take care, I'm gone. On Dec-31-13 at 07:54:24 PST, seller added the following information:Well folks I sure appreciate the calls and emails so far. Been a real pleasure. It is killing me to accept the fact that my car will be sold. Whoever wins the auction will gain instant celebrity status though. That is a fact! You will become "the people with the General Lee". It is amazing the amount of people who still relate to these cars from our childhood TV heros. In fact, if you Google "General Lee", 9 out of 10 images are of the Charger and not the real general. That says something about pop culture for sure. These are the most recognized cars on the planet and will never go out of style. Thanks for the interest and again, please ask anything at anytime. On Dec-31-13 at 17:28:49 PST, seller added the following information:I forgot to post engine pics so here is a quick look under the hood and at the floors prior to carpet installation. Sorry about that. |

FCA plants skipping summer shutdown to keep up with demand
Thu, May 14 2015Hopefully, some FCA US factory employees don't have big plans for the usual summer shutdown, because the automaker is keeping several plants running this year. Demand is so high that the company wants to keep models rolling off the assembly lines. Four FCA US assembly plants, all the engine factories, and some locations that build transmissions are staying open throughout the summer, according to the Detroit Free Press. Usually, these sites would see a two-week shutdown for the company to retool and perform repairs. This year, factories are staying open for FCA to support its strong sales. The lines that remaining humming through the summer show an inclination toward the automaker's popular SUV's and crossovers. They include the Jefferson North Assembly Plant in Michigan that builds the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango; Saltillo Van Assembly in Mexico that constructs the Ram ProMaster; Toledo Assembly Complex in Ohio that produces the Cherokee and Wrangler; and Toluca Assembly in Mexico that makes the Dodge Journey and Fiat 500.

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.
Dodge Charger and Challenger go Plum Crazy for Woodward Dream Cruise
Wed, Aug 12 2015Dodge will be rolling through a purple haze at the 2015 Woodward Dream Cruise on August 15 with the reintroduction of Plum Crazy to the color options on most trims of the 2016 Challenger and Charger. To premiere the latest use of the wild shade, the brand's display at the annual Detroit-area automotive event will be showing off violet versions of the 2016 Dodge Challenger 392 Hemi Scat Pack Shaker and Charger R/T Scat Pack. The brash tone originally debuted in 1970, but Dodge has kept the lavender hue special in recent years by limiting the option to specific trims. It was last offered during the 2014 model year on R/T and SRT trims of the two vehicles. Practically any buyer will be able to go Plum Crazy if they want. On the Challenger, the color will be available on the SXT Plus, R/T models, Hemi Scat Pack Shaker, SRT 392, and SRT Hellcat trims. The choices for the Charger will be similarly broad, including the SXT when ordered with 20-inch wheels, R/T versions, SRT 392, and SRT Hellcat. Customers desperately wanting a vehicle in the insanely violet shade will be able to place the first orders in September, and dealers will get the chance from October through the end of the year. Production of the lavender muscle cars will then commence in November. Dodge Debuts Plum Crazy Heritage Hue for 2016 Challenger and Charger at Woodward Dream Cruise, Provides Collector-demanded Production Numbers for High-impact Paint Colors New 2016 Dodge Challenger 392 HEMI Scat Pack Shaker and Charger R/T Scat Pack Models in Plum Crazy Will Be Shown at the Dodge Display at 13 Mile and Woodward Ave in Royal Oak, Mich.
