What a great classic car I am offering up for sale. This is my 1956 Dodge Coronet 2 door hardtop that is a head turner for sure. This car is one you don’t see every day and is usually the only one present a the car shows I have entered it in. Most people who questioned me about my car say they remember them in the 50’s as a cool and fun cruiser. Some remember it as one they owned back in the day.
This car is almost original with only a few modifications for the better. I personally rebuilt the engine about 9 months ago. I have currently put approx.600-700 miles on the engine. I runs like a top and cruises down the road like a Cadillac. A previous owner put a new style radio in the dash and when I bought it the radio was bad so I replaced it along with new speakers. At least now you can cruise down the road with AM/FM radio and also a CD-DVD player. I have replaced the old oil bath air cleaner with a small custom one and the wheels you see on the car have been replaced. I still have the original oil bath air cleaner and the original wheels and hub caps that go with the purchase of the car.
How cool do you think it would be to cruise in a car like this with the push button 2-speed automatic transmission, new upholstery including the headliner and a new engine. The paint and body is in not so great condition but this is how I planned to leave it to create the classic effect. Now let me list some features of the car. 1956 Dodge Coronet (Lancer trim) 2-door hardtop no post 270 cubic inch Poly “Red Ram” engine (new rebuilt) 2-speed Powerflite push button automatic transmission 5 spoke Eagle Allow wheels 15” wide whitewall tires with nearly new tread 4 wheel drum brakes (manual) 12 volt electrical system Rebuilt steering box (manual) All new radiator and heater hoses Rebuilt 2 barrel carburetor Rebuilt distributor including points, condenser, cap and rotor and all new spark plugs. Engine oil filter converted to a spin on. New master cylinder New Kenwood AM/FM radio CD/DVD player New Kenwood rear speakers New upholstery Front seat belts added No broken glass anywhere New Gabriel air shocks on rear …more features but I feel like photos are the best way to get the real feel about the car so I will post many. If you have a request for a photo of something different than posted just let me know and I will send them directly to you. This vehicle is being sold "AS IS" with no warranty. All pickup and shipping cost are to be paid by the buyer. Deposit in NON-REFUNDABLE. Please make sure you view the photos and description carefully to satisfy your questions.

Travis Pastrana signs with Dodge for another year, brings partner Bryce Menzies [w/video]
Sun, 14 Apr 2013Dodge and SRT Motorsports announced that the Dodge Dart will be returning for its sophomore season of the Global Rallycross Championship with a two-car team fielded by Pastrana Racing. Travis Pastrana drove his GRC Dart to victory lane in the fourth race of the car's inaugural season, and his race team is looking for even more success with the addition of off-road racer Bryce Menzies behind the wheel of the second car.
The 2013 GRC season kicks off on April 21 in Brazil with plenty of dirt-spewing, ramp-jumping action. Scroll down for a video from the cars' main sponsor, Red Bull, and a press release from Chrysler.
Dodge Scat Packages add Mopar performance upgrades in three stages
Wed, 06 Nov 2013Dodge has revealed what it calls Scat Package Stage Kits that enhance the performance of the Charger and the Challenger equipped with the 5.7-liter V8, and the Dart equipped with the turbocharged 2.4-liter inline four-cylinder engine. The Scat Packs use Mopar performance parts that also can be bought separately. Most of the upgrades increase engine output, but Dodge somehow manages to not specifically mention the power gains associated with each Scat Pack.
The three Scat Packs offered for the V8-powered cars focus on higher power ratings, and each stage comes complete with a unique engine-management calibration to optimize output. Stage one comes with a cold-air intake and a cat-back exhaust; stage two adds a performance camshaft; and stage three really gives you the goods, adding ported polished cylinder heads and performance headers.
For the Dart, the Scat Packs focus on engine, transmission, chassis and brake upgrades. Stage one will net you a cold-air intake, a short-throw shifter and slotted rotors with performance brake pads; stage two adds a cat-back exhaust system and an engine-management calibration to increase output by taking advantage of premium-octane gasoline; and stage three adds 13-inch vented brake discs up front clamped by four-piston calipers, suspension with adjustable springs and struts and performance front and rear antiroll bars.
SRT reveals Satin Vapor Edition 300, Charger and Challenger SRT models
Fri, 07 Feb 2014With the exception of some notable truck and van introductions, Chrysler brands have tended to use the Chicago Auto Show to bring out new special editions, pimp their aftermarket parts support or indulge in the occasional flight of fancy. That plan is holding true for 2014, as well. Cases in point are these new Satin Vapor Editions of the 2014-model-year Dodge Challenger, Dodge Charger and Chrysler 300 - all from SRT.
The Satin Vapor name may sound like a failed 1970s glam-rock band, or a pseudo-gynecological diagnosis from the Old West, but is, in fact, pretty much a tape-and-trim package for this trio of hi-po Mopars. 300, Challenger and Charger alike come shod with 20-inch aluminum wheels finished in Black Satin Vapor Chrome, and are accented with Satin Black bits aplenty. The 300 gets blacked-out mirrors, spoiler and roof; the Challenger applies it to mirrors and its fuel door; while the Charger has the stuff covering its roof, hood and Super Bee tail graphic.
Interiors of the cars have been mildly updated as well, with all three getting some combination of Nappa leather, ultra-suede and carbon-fiberish finishes.
