A Strikingly Beautiful car that needs nearly nothing.

This beautiful car runs flawlessly and drives enjoyably on the road. All areas of safe operation have been addressed including all new brake shoes, brake hardware, wheel cylinders and brake lines.

You won’t easily find another one like this one.

RE-CHROMED front and rear bumpers

Nice, newer, correct headliner

NEW carpet

Nice, Driver-quality repaint.

Nice and CORRECT seat fabric (SMS)

No cracks in Dash-NONE

All new U-Joints and driveshaft carrier/bearing

All Electroluminescent lights and gauges work.

Stainless Steel Roof inserts

Nothing Missing-even the medallions over the headlights are there.

Power Windows, Seat, Steering, Brakes, Vent Windows, antenna-all work.

AC needs Freon. Radio does not work. Chip in windshield (there for years-has not grown). To be 100% the door panels should be re-done.

Note that the chassis pictures were taken when the Drive Shaft was removed for repair. You cannot see them but there were some small areas that were a little rusty, so I had them cut out and new metal welded in. I then undercoated the entire undercarriage. Again, these are the BEFORE pictures so you can see that there was VERY little rust to begin with.

If you have a question: ASK. If you want to see something: ASK.

Thanks.

This is MY CAR. It is registered, titled and insured in my name.

Interesting trade (Big Dodge or Chrysler Wagon with Dual AC) considered.

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.

Toyota tops Consumer Reports best, worst used car values

Tue, 18 Mar 2014

We often mock Toyota for building boring, soulless cars, but a new study by Consumer Reports suggests that regardless of whether that's true, the company has some of the best used cars on the market. In its report on used cars from 2004-2013, the Japanese automaker had 11 vehicles among its brands on the list - more than any other automaker.
CR breaks the list down by cost and vehicle size, and Toyota has at least one entry at every price point and in nearly every segment. To score a recommendation, a vehicle had to perform well in the magazine's initial tests and score above-average reliability results. It also tried to only suggest cars with electronic stability control. Of the 28 recommended vehicles, Honda/Acura had the second most mentions at six, and Ford, Hyundai and Subaru managed two each.
The Detroit brands also made it to the list, but not in a positive way. Consumer Reports compiled a list of 22 vehicles it wouldn't recommend because "they have multiple years of much-worse-than-average overall reliability." General Motors had the most unrecommended models on the list at six, but Chrysler and Ford weren't far behind, with five cars each from their brands not making the grade. The full list of recommendations is available on CR's website.

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky

Fri, 24 Aug 2012

It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
Check out our gallery of discontinued cars above, then scroll down for more information.
