1978 Dodge Magnum XE

Offered for sale is this rare, highly optioned 1978 Dodge Magnum XE 2D Coupe.  ALL original mid-size car in excellent condition. A near perfect, 100% complete, no rust at all, documented survivor (I am the third owner).  Copies of some of the original documentation (Bill of Sale, window sticker and consumer advertisement) will be included.  ONLY 36,650 original miles!!!  The exterior paint (charcoal gray - sunfire metallic) is in excellent original condition (no repaint).  A quick detail/buffing will make the car look brand new.  The landau T- Bar vinyl roof (silver) is in excellent condition as well.  The factory tinted glass and windshield are also in great condition, as are the T-tops.  There is some very minor damage on the front of the car (driver side), where the bottom of the head light surround is cracked and the top of the bumper has a slight 2" bend.  The chrome trim and bumpers are in great condition.  The original wheels and hubcaps (aluminum fascia) are in great condition.  The 360 V8 engine, 2 barell carburator and automatic torque flite transmission are all original and run as they should with no issues at all.  The car is a pleasure to drive.  The interior is light gray leather with recliner bucket seats, shag carpet (that's how it actually reads on the window sticker!) in gray.  Everything inside, the door panels, console, dash, etc. is in excellent condition, except for a couple of cracks on the steering wheel.  There is a blue cloth cover on the dash, but it's just to protect the dash.  There are too many options to list.  This car had just about everything on it from the factory.  Of course it has AC.  Hopefully you can read the window sticker I am posting if it's not too small. 

It is very hard, if not impossible to find a '78 or '79 Magnum in this condition.  You know what's available out there.  I am only selling due to a dire storage situation. The car is attractively priced and has a reasonable reserve (I am not willing to give it away though!).  It is well worth the investment and will be a very nice, smart addition to any car collection. 

NOTE: I also have a spare 1978 Magnum GT which is complete.  It could use an easy, inexpensive restoration.  It is a little too nice still to be used solely as a parts car, but could be if that's what one wanted.  I would sell the GT for $1750 (on a Bill of Sale only) to the Buyer of the XE.  It is always a good idea to have extra parts or a spare car when you own one of these rare classics as they only made them for two years.  The buyer might also get a better price on the transport if they pick up two cars at the same time; just thinking aloud.  Attention:  This car (GT) might be sold before the XE auction ends.

I also have some other spare parts (nothing NOS) available at a reasonable cost (A whole set of exterior trim, two tailight housings/lenses, two backup clear lenses, some interior panels, etc.).  If the winning bidder on the XE is at or close to what I am expecting for the XE AND also buys the GT for the price indicated above, I might provide all these extra parts at no extra cost! (spent more than $ 1000 on them, just for extras).   

A deposit of $520 is due immediately upon the end of the auction via PayPal.  The remaining balance is due within 48 hours via Bank Wire.  The Buyer is responsible for all transportation arrangements and costs to their location.  Car(s) sold as is.  All sales are final - no refunds, returns or exchanges.

Please feel free to email with any questions.

Thank you for looking!

Chrysler's next-gen minivans will get more expensive

Mon, Feb 2 2015

Chrysler introduced the value-oriented Great American Package on the base model Chrysler 300 in 2005. That morphed into the American Value Package available as an option on the Dodge Grand Caravan in 2012, which made it the lowest-priced minivan in the country, now with an MSRP of $21,395. Automotive News reports that Chrysler is going to kill the value package when the new Town & Country arrives for 2017, because the new platform and technology of the coming minivan make it "a difficult price point to get to." AN says the next-generation haulers will come in around $26,000 and can go beyond $45,000 with options; clicking every "Add" button we could find on the Town & Country build page, we couldn't get past $43,000 for today's model. That entry pricing in 2017 would eliminate the first three trims on the Dodge option, the American Value Package, the SE that starts at $24,195, and the SE Plus that starts at $24,995. This makes us think the next-generation haulers will take a sizable step upscale in terms of feel, content, and trim, a la the Chrysler 200. In this writer's opinion, if they do as good a job as they've been doing recently, the extra money will be worth it. There have been spy shots and a lot of rumors about it, like the Caravan minivan going away and becoming a crossover, but we'll see it revealed at the 2016 Detroit Auto Show.

Fiat Chrysler CEO says final merger talks with Peugeot going well

Thu, Jan 23 2020

BRUSSELS — Fiat Chrysler's chief executive Michael Manley said on Wednesday that merger talks with Peugeot owner PSA  to create the world's No. 4 carmaker are progressing well and he hopes to have a deal within 12-14 months. Speaking to Reuters on the sidelines of an industry meeting, he said he doesn't expect any major obstacles that could delay a final agreement. "Talks are progressing really well," Manley said about negotiations with the French carmaker ahead of a briefing by the European automotive association (ACEA), of which he is president. His comments come a month after the two carmakers agreed to a binding deal worth about $50 billion to combine forces in response to a slowdown in global demand and mounting costs of making cleaner vehicles amid tighter emissions regulations. Manley's timeline for completing the deal by early 2021 is in line with a forecast made by the companies in December. Fiat and Peugeot are now getting into the details of how the merger will work, including choosing which vehicle platforms — the technological underpinnings of a vehicle — will fit which products in a combined company. Because customers in different locations still prefer vastly different cars, there is room for multiple platforms in a combined group, Manley said. "That global platform is an elusive beast," he added. "This concept of a massive global platform in my mind is almost a myth, but that doesnÂ’t mean to say weÂ’re not going to recruit significant volume." Related Video:   Â
