Up for sale today is a 1971 Dodge Charger that I saved. I really wish there was more there to offer, and that it was in better condition, but at least it's going to be a start or a good parts car. 


Please check out the pictures as much as possible, because I don't know anything about the history of this car. It was parked about just over 30 years ago by the man I got it from. He used to buy cars and sell parts during the late 70's and early 80's and this car got somewhat lost in the mix since then. The interior seats are in the car, but the back seat is removed just laying in the rear. The car used to have a 318 according to the vin decoder, but now there is no trans, no engine, and no drive shaft in the car. There is a rear axle, but the car is currently sitting on it instead of it being bolted in place. I am not a Dodge person, but I believe the axle in the pictures is the one for the car. It goes with it, of course. The steering column is in the front bench seat area and is there. The dashboard was removed about a decade ago I was told and was laid on top of the car. If you notice, the top of the car has been stood on by people canvassing the yard where the car was at and has been dented inward. There is also a dent on the drivers side fender. Other than those two areas, the car actually appears very straight. There is plenty of rust as it has been sitting outside in NC for 30+ years, but it has been on tires so hopefully it's too gone. There was a bad spot I noticed on both A pillars as you can see in the pictures. The deck lid and rear area seemed to be straight and in decent shape. It looks as if this car was used as parts for someone else many, many moons ago and forgotten since then. Now is your chance to bring this back to it's previous glory for your next restoration project car, or use it for parts for the car you have now. There is no title to the vehicle as it has been parked for over 30 years. The vehicle will be sold with a notarized NC bill of sale only. You are responsible for obtaining a title for the vehicle on your own if you intend to eventually register the vehicle as it is being sold for restoration or parts only. I've tried to show the car the best I can in the pictures. The passenger door didn't open for me so I couldn't get pics from that side. As you can see, I didn't clean the vehicle at all and what you are seeing is what you get. If you need any specific pictures or have to have me check anything, please give me a day or two to respond as the car is a 45 minute drive one way for me. Thank you and happy bidding on this NO RESERVE auction!

Fiat Chrysler expands Takata airbag recall to 3.3M vehicles

Fri, Dec 19 2014

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is expanding its recall of vehicles equipped with Takata airbags, moving beyond Florida, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands to the greater US, as well as Mexico, Canada and beyond. The affected vehicles, some 3.3 million in total, were built between 2004 and 2007, with many models, including the Dodge Ram 1500, 2500 and 3500, Durango and the Chrysler 300, having been affected by Chrysler's previous recall. Despite the somewhat alarming nature that comes with a recall of this many vehicles, it seems that Chrysler is moving more out of an abundance of caution (and federal pressure) than anything else, saying: "Neither FCA US, nor Takata Corporation, the supplier, has identified a defect in this population of inflators. These components also are distinct from Takata inflators cited in fatalities involving other auto makers. More than 1,000 laboratory tests have been performed on these components. All deployed as intended, but FCA US continues to study the suspect inflators, which are not used in the Company's current production vehicles." Owners of affected vehicles will be notified and asked to report to dealers for a free replacement driver's side airbag. Scroll down for the official press release from FCA. Statement: Global Air-Bag Inflator Replacement December 19, 2014 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - FCA US LLC will replace driver's-side air-bag inflators in an estimated 3.3 million older-model vehicles worldwide, in an expansion of an ongoing regional field action. Neither FCA US, nor Takata Corporation, the supplier, has identified a defect in this population of inflators. These components also are distinct from Takata inflators cited in fatalities involving other auto makers. More than 1,000 laboratory tests have been performed on these components. All deployed as intended, but FCA US continues to study the suspect inflators, which are not used in the Company's current production vehicles. Outside of Florida, one of the areas covered by the original action, no FCA US vehicle has been linked to an air-bag deployment of the type that has raised public concern. Nevertheless, the Company is replacing the Takata components tied to that concern. FCA US is aware of one related injury involving one of its vehicles, an older-model sedan. It occurred in a southern Florida region marked by persistent, high, absolute humidity – a condition believed to be a contributing factor in the air-bag deployments under investigation.

CEO Sergio Marchionne curses FCA spokesman for emissions cheating denial

Tue, May 15 2018

WASHINGTON — Fiat Chrysler Chief Executive Officer Sergio Marchionne reprimanded the company's top U.S. spokesman for issuing press releases about Fiat's vehicle emissions practices days after Volkswagen's disclosure in September 2015 that the German automaker had used illegal software to evade emissions tests, documents released Monday show. Lawyers suing Fiat Chrysler Automobiles in a securities case filed excerpts of an email from Marchionne to Gualberto Ranieri, then the company's U.S. spokesman, in a filing in federal court in New York criticizing him for saying that the company does not use defeat devices. "Are you out of your goddam mind?" Marchionne wrote in an email on Sept. 22, 2015, adding that Ranieri should be fired and calling his actions "utterly stupid and unconscionable." The company said in a statement on Monday it was "understandable that our CEO would have a forceful response to any employee who would opine on such a significant and complex matter, without the matter having been fully reviewed through its appropriate channels." The statement added that Ranieri's comments came just days after VW's emissions issue became public "and before a comprehensive internal review and discussions with component suppliers was possible." Fiat Chrysler was sued in 2015 along with Marchionne and other executives over claims it defrauded shareholders by overstating its ability to comply with vehicle safety laws. An amended version of the complaint filed in 2017 added claims about its compliance with emissions laws. The shareholders accused the defendants of inflating Fiat Chrysler's share price by hundreds of millions of dollars from October 2014 to October 2015 by downplaying safety concerns. They said the shortcomings materialized in 2015 when the automaker was fined $175 million by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, and took a roughly $670 million charge for recalls. Plaintiffs filed the excerpts seeking approval to take up to 40 additional depositions, including Marchionne's. The U.S. Justice Department sued Fiat Chrysler in May 2017, accusing it of illegally using software to bypass emission controls in 104,000 diesel vehicles sold since 2014. Fiat Chrysler has held numerous rounds of settlement talks with the Justice Department and California Air Resources Board to settle the civil suit, including talks as recently as earlier this month. It faces a separate criminal probe into the matter.
