1966 Dodge Coronet We Code Police/fleet Car on 2040-cars

Year:1966 Mileage:39000

Unavailable for public purchase, the WE series cars were fleet vehicles sold to police departments and insurance companies.  Production was very low and few survive as a result of years of these strippers being used as parts cars for the sexier models.  But with the recent uptick in popularity of base models and strippers, this ultra-stripper should be a great restoration candidate.  Its nearly rust-free condition should be attractive to any enthusiast, and with only 39,000 original miles, it is a true survivor that should require less than normal restoration investment to make this a real standout car. 

  I traced this car to Libby, Montana, and upon contacting the City, County, and police departments, was unable to confirm if this was indeed one of their cars, (basically, they never got back to me on promises to "look into it") ... but the City did dissolve their police dept. in 1967 to use County services and this may explain the car's low miles and civilian end use.  More investigation might get a hard answer, but I will leave this for a future owner to push.

  Options appear to be limited to basic radio, tinted glass, and 15" wheels, the latter perhaps part of the fleet package ?

I won't get all flowery telling you how "awesome" this car is like so many other ebay sellers.  Anyone who knows B-body knows how special this beast is.  It is a barn find, not driven since 1979.  It has 39,830.4 original miles and the transmission interior and rear end reflect a very low miles car.  It needs a little TLC, but it is all there, very unmolested original, and VERY restorable.  Wheels were blasted and repainted and the car sits on brand new, high quality radials. Feel free to ask any specific questions.  I am selling this car with bill of sale, as I have lost the title.  Potential buyers are invited to inspect this car in person.  Winning bidder is expected to make 100% payment of winning bid within 10 business days of auction end.   Pickup shall be arranged to happen within 30 days of auction end, unless other arrangements are agreed to by seller.  Cash, or cashier's check are acceptable payment methods.  Buyer is responsible for pickup or shipping from point of sale.  Car is for sale locally and auction will be cancelled if sold locally first.

  I encourage all interested buyers to contact me directly for an honest description to any questions you might have  I am available most any time between 8:00am and 8pm PST.  509 . 953 . 4150

Here's your chance to own a first-year Dodge Viper with just 333 miles

Wed, Dec 4 2019

The Dodge Viper is certainly one of the most outrageous cars to come out of the 1990s, with its cartoon styling, massive 8.0-liter V10 engine, and utter disregard for anything other than performance. The first-generation models are the purest example of the breed, with an assemble-it-yourself toupee roof, side curtains, calf-searing side pipes, no air-conditioning (until '94), no airbags, no ABS, and no traction control. This first-year 1992 Viper is coming to Barrett-Jackson's Scottsdale auction in January and has just 333 miles, making it a near-new example of Chrysler's wild child. Only a couple hundred first-year Vipers were built, making them among the rarest of the breed. All '92 models were red, the same color as the 1989 show car, the overwhelming reaction to which spurred Chrysler to put the car into production as a modern-day Cobra. With the Viper's departure in 2017, the car seems destined to forever remain the improbable offspring of a moment in time. That time has passed, but an ultra-low-miles example like this allows its lucky new owner to chance to experience firsthand what all the fuss was about.

Chrysler recalls small number of 2013-2014 cars and trucks over engine debris

Thu, 12 Dec 2013

Chrysler is recalling a small number cars over issues with their 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines. The recall, which affects 522 examples of its 2013 Dodge Avenger and Chrysler 200 models, as well as 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot CUVs has to do with potential debris in the balance shaft bearings.
The abrasive stuff can cause the oil pressure to drop, which could lead to the engine stalling or outright failure. This situation could at best leave drivers stranded and at worst lead to a crash.
Chrysler will begin notifying owners, who will need to report in to have the balance shaft module replaced. All repairs are naturally free of charge. Scroll down for the bulletin from NHTSA.

Dodge could resurrect the ACR nameplate on a track-hungry Challenger

Tue, Oct 15 2019

Dodge will reportedly celebrate the Challenger's 50th birthday by introducing a track-focused variant of the coupe that will resurrect the American Club Racer (ACR) nameplate. It will arrive as a cocktail of the automaker's best race-bred parts, including bits and pieces sourced from the defunct Viper. The Challenger ACR will be presented as a follow-up to the sold-out Challenger Demon available during the 2018 model year. While Dodge developed the 840-horsepower Demon for drag racing, it's designing the ACR to tackle America's windiest road courses, according to anonymous sources who spoke to website Mopar Insiders. It will need to take a turn, not just go really fast in a straight line. To that end, Dodge will give its popular muscle car more downforce by adding a full body kit that will include a huge adjustable rear wing shaped like the one fitted to the Viper ACR. The racer will be based on the Widebody variant of the Challenger, which handles considerably better than its narrow-bodied sibling, and it will rely on composite materials like carbon fiber to keep weight in check. In other words, it will receive more extreme modifications than the Challenger SRT8 ACR that Dodge introduced during the 2011 SEMA show but never approved for production. If this configuration sounds familiar, it's likely because the carmaker sponsors an independent team named Wesley Motorsports, which races a Hellcat Redeye all over America. It features an adjustable suspension provided by Blistein, slick Toyo tires, and a supercharged, 797-horsepower V8. The Challenger ACR described by Mopar Insiders sounds a lot like the one Wesley Motorsports regularly enters in hill climbs and time attack competitions (pictured). Coincidence? It's too early to tell for sure. Dodge hasn't commented on the report, and it hasn't announced what it has in store for the Challenger's 50th anniversary. The original Challenger made its debut in late 1969, and it arrived in showrooms during the 1970 model year, so Dodge will need to unwrap its surprise before the start of the 2021 model year to keep it timely. Expect an announcement during the first half of 2020. While pricing information remains a mystery, Mopar Insiders added the Challenger ACR will come standard with only a driver's sat. Buyers will be able to add a passenger seat for $1.
