  I'm selling my Swept Wing 1957 Dodge Custom Royal Lancer Sedan that is numbers matching and mostly all original. This is a nice cruiser to drive around and have a good time. Its not a trailer queen and far from a show car, but a nice honest driver to enjoy and do local cruises. The car is powered by a 325 Red Ram engine and a three speed push button Torque Flight Automatic Transmission. I picked this car up over a year ago and did all the mechanicals to make it road worthy / safe. The engine was pulled out and a mild rebuild / overhaul was conducted and I installed new rings, bearings, timing gear set and all new gaskets. At the time a complete tune up, rebuilt of the carburetor, starter, generator and Power Booster were done. The Push Button transmission was also removed and serviced, flushing it thoroughly and new seals and filter installed. The Rear Differential was flushed and new fluid was added. I installed a new gas tank, along with sending unit, fuel pump and new 3/8 aluminum fuel line. The entire braking system was also rebuilt, replace all wheel cylinders, brake shoes, Master Cylinder, rebuilt the brake booster and replaced every brake line on car for safety. The custom 2" exhaust (true dual exhaust) were professionally made from the front original exhaust manifolds to the original exhaust tips. The mufflers are manufactured by Dynomax and everything is welded together for a non leaking exhaust system. The car runs great and is dependable and has no known mechanical issues. There are also no fluid leaks what so ever throughout the vehicle.  I also just installed new front and rear shocks, new Kenwood stereo and speakers. I have all receipts to verify the aforementioned information listed. The car still retains the factory am radio in the dash and it works but needs the dash speaker replaced. The tires are new and were replaced with vintage style Coker Classic bias tires for that original appearance. The car has power steering and drives straight down the road. Car has new carpeting and floor mats, NOS taillights along with many other items / parts throughout the car and I have touched upon most of them. This car is currently Pennsylvania registered and can be driven anywhere without any problems and the Pa plate is transferable if the winning bidder is a Pa resident and wants the plate. The car is driven daily and is trouble free. I'm selling this car to help fund my restoration of my other car, which is a 1959 Dodge Lancer. The vehicle is being sold with no warranty and none has been expressed or implied. A non refundable $500.00 deposit is required at the end of the auction and the remaining balance is due at the time of taking possession of the car. The high bidder / winner of this auction is responsible for any and all shipping fees. Inspection of the car is available and encouraged prior to the auction ending and is required for better communications.  Any questions please contact me through Ebay or cell (302) 420-6647 Joe.

2013 Dodge Charger SRT8 Super Bee

Tue, 12 Mar 2013

I can pinpoint the exact moment when I fell in love with this car. It was starting down a nearly straight entrance ramp at 15 miles per hour when I buried the throttle. In a moment, I was thrown back into my seat as the big SRT8's engine came to life with commensurate sound, fury and force, bringing me up to 75 mph in what felt like two blinks of an eye. This thing feels so much quicker than its 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque would lead you to believe. And mashing the right pedal never, ever gets old.
But beyond sheer speed, I found a whole lot to like about the Charger SRT8 during my week with the Pitch Black test car here in Detroit. And while the whole Super Bee kit isn't really my style, it's really easy to overlook those badges for a package that offers so much for so little.

Junkyard Gem: 1992 Dodge Shadow America

Tue, Aug 2 2016

A quarter-century ago, most Americans looking for a cheap transportation appliance went for cars like the miserably-stripped-down-but-bulletproof Toyota Tercel or the feature-laden-but-reliability-challenged Hyundai Excel. Chrysler, having just discontinued the elderly "Omnirizon" platform, took the Dodge Shadow and its Plymouth sibling, the Sundance and offered a car that was bigger, more powerful, and better-equipped than just about anything else for the price: the America! These cars depreciated hard and nearly all were crushed a decade ago, so sightings are extremely rare today. Here's one that I found in a Northern California self-service yard. This one still had windshield paperwork indicating that it was an insurance-company auction car (probably totaled in a fender-bender that caused $200 worth of damage) and that it was a runner at the time it got junked. Such is the fate of 24-year-old economy cars in rough shape. The Shadow was a member of the many-branched K-Car family tree, and the Shadow America came with the same 2.2-liter straight-4 engine that powered millions of Caravans, Daytonas, New Yorkers, and Lasers. You got more torque than the competition, plus a driver's-side airbag instead of the maddening automatic seat belts found in other low-priced cars of 1992. Of course, the paint tended to peel off within a few years and the build quality of the Shadow was hit-or-miss, but these cars were way nicer to drive than, say, a Tercel EZ or Subaru Justy.

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.
