1966 Dodge Coronet 440 Trim and 440 engine
This car is my baby. I have a couple other projects I want to finish, sad to see it go but its time to move on. Ive owned for about 3 years and put lots of money in it.
This car is in incredible shape. CLEAN Oregon Title!
I am a ASE Master Automotive Tech and a Master Heavy Truck Tech and I put this car together myself, so feel confident it had been done right.

Engine
1971 440 - steel crank, 9 to1 compression, Edelbrock E-street 75cc chamber heads. 224/234 @.050 .497int .520exh after the 1.6 chromoly roller rockers. Double roller timing chain. Comp pushrods, Edelbrock Performer RPM intake. Quick Fuel 750 carb, Billet distributor with blaster coil. 1 7/8 hooker headers into dual 3" single chamber mufflers with turn downs. Aluminum water pump and housing, mini denso alternator, mini starter, optima red top battery. SFI balancer and SFI B&M flexplate with all arp fasteners. 4 core aluminum radiator and a flex fan. K&N air filter. I always use non-ethanol premium fuel.

Transmission
Shift kit, 4 qt extra B&M transmission pan, aux cooler and cooler in radiator all plumbed with 4 an hydraulic line. Custom phoenix transmission 9.5 torque converter 2800 stall ( I wanted it tight for street use) Bolt on 1/4 Aluminum drive shaft loop

Rearend
489 case 8.75 - 3.91 suregrip, adjustable pinion snubber. Landrum 200lb rear springs and competition engineering 3 way shocks

Other
Manual steering, lightweight aluminum master cylinder with disc proportioning valve, car is still 4 wheel drum brakes (stops great). Small 7260 ujoints. This car needs nothing but driven, if someone want to do some upgrades I recommend getting a 1350 driveline and converting to discs in the front (you are already half way there with the mastercylinder and prop valve) just to handle the power its putting out. New tires and draglite style wheels

Body
I don't have a ton of history on the car other than it was garaged most of its life. The paint you see is ORIGINAL, oregon has a great climate/doesnt salt the roads so cars hold up really well here. The body isnt perfect, it has 48 years of wear. There are a couple dings and some chipping and a spot I had painted by the drivers door handle (other
owner spray painted about a dollar bill sized section, not sure why) There is some very slight rust starting in the lower rear quarter panels behind the tires. There is also a slight wrinkle or dent on the passenger side quaters and lower passenger side front fender. All trim and bumpers are perfect. Still has factory wiper arms with wind deflector.

Interior
New carpet and headliner, custom made dash with autometer phantom gauges. 2 5/8 electric oil pressure, water temp, trans temp and volt meter. 3 3/8 160 mph speedo and 3 3/8 8k tach. Original radio but does not work. Heater core isnt hooked up ( I didnt want the ugly heater hoses in the engine compartment and I dont drive it in the winter) Front floor pans were professionally patched, the rest of the floor and trunk floor needed no work. Had the floor pan and trunk floor coated with por15 and the trunk floor sprayed back to body color. The seats have a couple tears in them, not bad for 48 years, Door panels and dash or original

I wanted to see what the car would run in the 1/4 mile before I sold it, so I took it to the local dragstrip. It ran 13.1 @106 on street tires! Confident that it will run 12s with a little tweaking if that is what you want to do with it. You will not be disappointed with this car, I drive it on and off to work, when the weather is nice, which is 60 miles round trip. The car has never let me down. Last time I did plugs, I did a compression test and there was 155 psi on every hole + or - 2 psi. Great oil pressure. Runs right around 180 on even the hottest days, Transmission has never gotten over 165 degrees.

Chrysler extending production of current Dodge Avenger, Jeep Wrangler, Grand Caravan

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Are you hesitant to pull the trigger on a brand new Dodge Avenger in hopes that a new one will be coming? Well, don't hold your breath. According to The Detroit News, Chrysler will be extending production of the current Avenger sedan through the end of 2015.
Originally, we heard that the company would kill the Avenger to better focus its midsize sedan efforts on the Chrysler 200 replacement. But then new reports stated there would indeed be an Avenger successor, and that we could see it as early as next January. This Detroit News report cites supplier sources confirming the extension of Avenger production, though Chrysler has not released an official statement on the matter.
These same suppliers say that the current Jeep Wrangler will live on through mid-2018 - that's right, another five years. The Detroit News reports that a replacement for the iconic, go-anywhere Jeep was due in mid-2016.

2013 Dodge Dart gets brace of new special edition models

Thu, 16 May 2013

After almost a year on the market it, it is becoming more clear to Dodge how customers like to option out their Darts, so the automaker has combined popular features into three special edition packages and sweetened the prices. Start with a standard 2013 Dart and add either the SXT or Limited "Special Editions" or Rallye Appearance Group, and you'll save yourself a lot of box checking.
The $595 Dart SXT Special Edition takes the trim just above the base model and adds a new grille, dark-tinted headlights and projector fog lights, LED racetrack taillights, cruise control and audio controls on the leather-wrapped steering wheel. The Limited Special Edition starts with the top-end model and adds a power sunroof, heated front seats and steering wheel, dual-zone climate control and Nappa leather seats among other features, for $1,810.
The Rallye Appearance Group (pictured) is a package for the SXT, and it blacks out the front fascia, throws on 17-inch wheels and some badging for $395. The new special editions are reaching dealers now and could help the Dart's sales to further improve after a slow start. You can find out more about them in the press release below.

Dodge to resurrect Scat Pack?

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

Before social media ever existed, if automotive enthusiasts wanted to be noticed or recognize other fans, they joined a car club. For Dodge muscle car lovers from 1968 through 1971, that group was known as the Scat Pack. Just like the Charger, Challenger and Dart nameplates, it looks like the Scat Pack could be getting a resurrection by Chrysler.
Automotive News is reporting that Chrysler recently renewed its trademark on the Scat Pack name, and while this is in no way a guarantee that the name will return, AN talked to Tim Kuniskis, Dodge President and CEO, who stoked the fire a little more. In the article, Kuniskis said that the name is "a very important part of our history" and added that "we like the whole idea of having a Scat Pack of cars." Scat Pack models were identified by their bumblebee stripes and helmet-wearing bumblebee logo, and the idea of a modern Scat Pack doesn't seem all that outlandish in light of recent vehicles like the Charger SRT Super Bee and the Ram 1500 Rumble Bee Concept.
What do you think, is this a cool idea, or is it just an unwelcome bit of nostalgia? Have you say in Comments.
