OK...Here's something you don't see everyday! 1953 Dodge Coronet V8 Hemi in its original condition! This is the time when they really made cars. The previous owner spent a small fortune on this car. This Coronet is mostly original and has its factory V8 Hemi engine and Gyro-Matic transmission. It is a 12V conversion. It does have Aftermarket Vintage A/C added that is ice cold. Also an elaborate sound system was installed that has several power amps and (4) 6X9 speakers mounted in the package tray as well as a double bass speaker in the trunk. This system is missing some power cables and we cant verify if it works properly. We found 2 significant receipts from the previous owner in the glove box. One for complete dual exhaust 2008 $711.00, and one for engine rebuild 2006 $1292.00. These will go with the car for future reference. Master cylinder is new as are some brake lines, but the clutch pedal will need proper adjusting as it shares a pivot pin with the Master Cylinder. All linkages and springs are complete, but proper adjustment is required.

Paint looks somewhat newer, and does shine nicely, but is blistering on some lower areas. Some fading also see on deck lid and a little on roof. Roof has a round peeling area(maybe 8-10 inches?) that has been touched up. Car still makes a stunning appearance. Chrome looks great. Some floor pan work was done, then undercoated, but the undercoat is peeling. Really solid frame. Tires are super cool big white walls with great thread, but they are old and cracking. They might look great, but i don't think they will be safe long term. Air will seep out when they sit, so lets plan on some rubber. Engine does not leak, but it is a chore getting it started so please plan on trailering this home.Unfortunately, its been off the road a number of years and will need some work to make it a driver. The car will start if you tinker with it, but will run poorly. We suspect old gas so are not forcing the issue. The tank looks solid and does have a drain plug. This is a pretty easy project that will be worth a fortune. A true solid investment with original HEMI drivetrain. We simply don't have the time and need shop space. No nonsense auction. Highest bidder wins...Period. Good luck!

The Dodge Demon is coming, an evil mutation of the Challenger SRT Hellcat

Thu, Jan 12 2017

If there's one thing we'll take more of, it's Hellcat. Dodge's 707-horsepower supercharged V8 is a shining star of muscle car ideals. A panacea to the cylinder-count and displacement atrophy. And according to Dodge's new website, www.ifyouknowyouknow.com, a even crazier version of the Challenger SRT Hellcat is on the way. It's called the Dodge Demon. The website features a series of videos that reveal more and more details of the upcoming car. As of this writing, only the first teaser is available, title cage (and also seen above). The final video, and full reveal, of the car, coincides with the dates for the 2017 New York Auto Show. Details are scant at this point. The video, and the press release statement from FCA passenger car chief Tim Kuniskis, point to quarter-mile performance as the Demon's sole purpose in life. Said Kuniskis, "The Dodge Challenger SRT Demon is conceived, designed and engineered for a subculture of enthusiasts who know that a tenth is a car and a half second is your reputation." Whether that means an all-wheel-drive Hellcat, more power, or both remains to be seen. Stay tuned. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

2014 Dodge Durango

Wed, 25 Sep 2013

Say what you want about the Dodge Durango, but ever since it came on the scene in 1998, it has occupied its own niche in the SUV market - not too small, not too big, tough, able, not always the best on the road and not always the best off-road. If it were a football player, it would be a tight-end that can block and catch. If it were a hamburger - a double burger with cheese and bacon, but not the Whopper.
As part of a mid-cycle upgrade for what was already a very capable SUV that Chrysler introduced in 2011, and built on the same platform as the Mercedes GL-Class and Jeep Grand Cherokee, the 2014 Durango has gotten some refinements worth noting that have cleaned up its tailoring and toned up its body and powerplant. The result is an SUV that shows itself to be a very good value in a category full of sticker prices that can run away faster than a kid who's been told he has to take ballroom dancing lessons.
Chrysler executives showing us the new Durango made a special point to reiterate that the Dodge brand is not going away, as has been rumored after the company took the Ram and Viper - the cream of the brand - out from under the Dodge umbrella. Turns out Dodge has been the brand attracting the most young people (who knew?) and has a younger average age buyer than Honda. The Dodge brand historically has also attracted buyers who aren't exactly Phi-Beta Cappa, which some companies worry about. Chrysler not so much. Dodge buyers tend to be more the working, high-school-educated, community-college-educated backbone of the work force in America. If they keep coming to Dodge, the Durango is a pretty good piece of hardware to save up for.

Dodge Viper recall requires small-handed mechanics

Fri, 25 Apr 2014

It has been over a year since Chrysler first announced its recall of 3,660 2003-2004 Dodge Vipers because the airbag could suddenly deploy. The repairs are finally beginning, and it appears to be a nightmare for mechanics.
According to the automaker's filing with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag control module can fail, which causes the bag or the seatbelt pre-tensioner to deploy without warning. It took over a year to design the new parts, according to The New York Times. However, Chrysler finally has a new "jumper harness with an in-line diode filter circuit" ready to fix the problem.
The dilemma now moves to the mechanics who have to actually install the part. A 47-step guide from Chrysler explains that the procedure should take about two hours. It's not an easy job, though. Most of the dashboard has to be taken apart, and the instructions include this helpful bit of advice: "Installing the jumper harness and filter box into position is not an easy task. Patience, perseverance, and small hands are required." We wish the best of luck to them. The fix comes just in time for the Vipers to enjoy the summer sun.
