 This is my 1970 Dodge Coronet 440 for sale. It has a 318 Engine, and is a 4 door. I shaved the rear outside door handles to make it look more sporty like a 2 door....see pictures. Of course both rear doors can be opened from the inside, but you never have to worry about locking them. Also the advantage of a 4 door like this is the fact that the doors are not nearly as heavy as a 2 door, thus they will never sag or have trouble closing them.
The car runs near perfectly, with the exception of a bit of crackling while going uphill which is from a bit of lack of lead since gas stations no longer carry leaded gas. Although I add lead additive at every fill up, it may need a little more for the first couple of fill ups. When on  level terrain there is nothing but the purring of the awesome sounding engine. Also, the charge of the alternator is high, not sure why, but it does not affect the engine performance at all. See picture. This car has great pick up, and runs great in the city and highway. The engine was rebuilt about 20,000 miles ago, and it is really a smooth runner! Because of the engine being rebuilt, the mileage listed above shows whats on the dashboard, but is really exempt on the title. All gauges, lights and blinkers work fine.
The body is pretty much straight without rust except where the pictures show the passenger front corner panel damage. The hood is a bit tough to shut, and has to be pushed in as you are shutting it because of that corner panel. I was the victim of a hit and run unfortunately. Pictures show the damage to that corner panel. The paint is pealing slightly in a few places such as around the door handles and part of the front corner panel, but can only be seen up close. All 4 tires still have original hub caps, and have plenty of tread. The original radio is still in the dash. Not sure if it works, or the condition of the speakers. Much of the interior was vinyl painted sandstone/beige color, like the dashboard and doors. A couple minor cracks in the dashboard, but overall decent for a car of this age. Seat covers are on the front and back seats. I believe the interior is decent underneath, but I put the seat covers on because they match the beige color of most of the other interior. Seats are bench seats, and the head rests for the front seat are in the trunk with covers on them as well. All 4 tires have a decent amount of tread on them.
Battery, belts, alternator, and voltage regulator are all brand new. Vehicle includes spare tire and Jack. Very minor surface rust in the trunk.
Any questions please don't hesitate to ask! Thank you.

Georgia sheriff buys Dodge Charger Hellcat, and the feds want a refund

Sat, Jul 21 2018

A sheriffs office in Georgia recently purchased a new 2018 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat. It's currently being used and driven by Gwinnett County Sheriff Butch Conway. Now the U.S. Department of Justice wants its money back. All $70,000 of it. According to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the DOJ described the purchase as extravagant. The purchase was originally approved by the DOJ, with the money coming from asset forfeitures. The government has since questioned whether the car is being used for its intended and stated purpose — undercover and covert operations as well as the Gwinnett County Beat the Heat program. The Beat the Heat program is a nonprofit meant to "to educate drivers about the dangers of distracted driving and illegal street racing" by holding drag nights at local tracks. The Hellcat — along with a 1996 Chevy Impala SS, a 1990 Chevy Corvette and 2004 Volkswagen GLI — are all featured on the Beat the Heat website. All but the Hellcat are privately owned and funded. The DOJ prohibits the use of taxpayer money for "extravagant expenditures" and says the "the vehicle in question is a high-performance vehicle not typically purchased as part of a traditional fleet of law enforcement vehicles." The sheriff's office defended the purchase, stating that Sheriff Conway uses it to commute and "when he participates in field operations, covert and otherwise, with our deputies" and that "Conway maintains that this vehicle is an appropriate purchase, especially for an agency with a $92 million budget and the opportunity this vehicle provides in making our roadways safer." The DOJ has given the sheriff's department until July 31 to repay the money. Gwinnett County intends to comply with the reimbursement. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

The Dodge Demon's massive drag tires are just barely street legal

Thu, Jan 26 2017

Despite the gaffe that was the Vin Dieselgate leak (no, not that one), Dodge and SRT are soldiering on with the twelve-part Dodge Demon rollout in the lead up to the car's reveal at the New York Auto Show. The Vin Diesel video showed what is almost assuredly the car's front, but now we get an official view of the Demon's rear in this week's video, "Wide Body." Along with the new view, Dodge shows off a cryptic license plate (Michigan #2576@35) and details on the Demon's tantalizing wheel and tire combo. That wheel and tire combo, meant to fill out the Demon's new wide wheel arches, is frankly impressive. Lightweight 18- by 11-inch wheels are wrapped in special Demon branded Nitto NT05R tires measuring an astounding 315/40R18 at all four corners. Not only does that trump the old Camaro Z/28's 305 section tires, it makes the Demon the first production car to come equipped from the factory with drag radials, claims Dodge. Presumably, the goal with the Demon is to provide enough power and grip to rotate the Earth underneath the car rather than propelling the car itself down a dragstrip. Beyond that, few other details were revealed. Dodge provided some vague information about how the "wide-body is laser clearanced, and the entire chassis is e-coated for durability before final assembly," but doesn't actually explain what that really means. We do know now that the flared fenders add 3.5 inches to the Demon's overall width. Overall, the car looks mean and purposeful, especially wrapped in just barely street-legal rubber. Follow along at www.ifyouknowyouknow.com and see if you can find and decipher all the hints. Related Video: Design/Style New York Auto Show Dodge Coupe Performance tires dodge demon dodge hellcat

eGarage interviews a couple with 65 Vipers

Thu, 12 Sep 2013

Owning multiple vehicles can be a hassle worth enjoying if you're willing to spend the time and the money required to acquire and maintain them. But when it's hard to make ends meet while underused valuable hunks of metal, plastic and rubber sit happily taking up garage space, journeys into the depths of other people's well-developed automotive obsessions will either bring you and your cars closer together, or compel you to sell them off before you become one of those fanatics. A recent video by eGarage is one of those journeys, and it's not for the faint of heart: D'Ann and Wayne Rauh own 65 Dodge and SRT Vipers in a collection of automobiles that exceeds 100.
We're not sure if the couple has developed heat-resistant calves from stepping over Viper door sills made burning-hot by side-exhaust pipes, but we wouldn't be surprised if they did. We did learn that their obsession with the no-holds-barred sports car started in 2006 with a trip to a dealership to buy just one Viper, which goes to show how innocently car obsessions can start. But the Rauhs seem to be doing just fine - perhaps better - 64 more Vipers later.
Watch the video below for the full story and to see what eGarage claims is the world's largest Viper collection.
