1970 Dodge Coronet 440 Hardtop 4-door 318 Engine on 2040-cars
Lewiston, Idaho, United States
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. |

Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango to lose color options temporarily
Wed, 19 Nov 2014In the market for a Jeep Grand Cherokee or Dodge Durango? Well, if you fancy a more expressive color for your new SUV, you'd better get your order in, or plan on waiting until well into 2015.
The SUVs will be limited to just four monochromatic shades - black, white, silver and gray - until at least February, thanks to an upgrade to the paint shop at the two vehicles' Jefferson North factory. For the Grand Cherokee, that means it's losing more than half its color palette while the Durango is dropping two-thirds of its color catalog.
The loss of colors is inconvenient, but the upgrade will have a slightly bigger effect on the overall supply of SUVs, as Chrysler will need to end its relentless build pace at the factory for a three-week shutdown starting on December 22. The good news for fans of the SUVs is that once the work is completed, we should see a gradual expansion of the color palettes for both the Durango and Grand Cherokee, beyond even what's offered now.
Dodge Journey gets more SUV-like look with new Crossroad model
Fri, 31 Jan 2014Looking to play up its aging three-row crossover, Dodge will introduce a new model for its Journey franchise at next week's Chicago Auto Show. The 2014 Dodge Journey Crossroad will be a new trim level positioned between the SXT and Limited, and it will be distinguished from other Journey models thanks to a handful of styling add-ons.
Plucking a page right out of the appearance playbook of the Ford Explorer Sport, the Journey Crossroad gets a meaner, more SUV-like demeanor. The Journey has often straddled the line between tall wagon and crossover, but this new trim goes a long way toward skewing its visuals toward the utility vehicle end of the spectrum. That's thanks largely to the Platinum chrome exterior trim on its roof rails and side sills, unique fascias, smoked headlights and taillights and, of course, those black 19-inch wheels. Inside, the Journey Crossroad will get a similar treatment, with darker, Liquid Graphite accents throughout the cabin, and the model will also come standard with leather seats (which Dodge says are a new design), and Chrysler's giant 8.4-inch Uconnect screen.
The 2014 Journey Crossroad goes on sale this spring with a starting price of $24,995 (*not including $995 for destination) for the four-cylinder, front-wheel-drive model, but Dodge says that the model will also be offered with more power and capability from the optional 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 and all-wheel-drive. Scroll down for the full press release, and check back next week for our live coverage from Chicago.
Custom 2014 Dodge Durango R/T proves SEMA can be subtle
Thu, 07 Nov 2013The annual SEMA Show in Las Vegas can often be a sensory overload of overwrought madness, with cars that don't even look drivable anymore. But every once in a while, a modestly modified show car graces our presence, like the customized Dodge Durango you see here, which, in addition to giving us our first glimpse at the aftermarket possibilities for the refreshed-for-2014 model, proves that a car doesn't have to be slammed, scooped, donked and Lambo-doored to have presence.
Sure, this Durango has custom hood inserts, dark 22-inch wheels and custom fender flares, but as far as external modifications go, that's it. Inside, Dodge has fitted new door sill guards, an ambient lighting kit, bright pedals, premium floor mats and - of course - Katzkin leather. The automaker has even added wireless internet connectivity as part of the excellent Uconnect infotainment system.
Performance upgrades are minimal on this Durango R/T, which comes packed with Chrysler's 5.7-liter Hemi V8. Larger brakes have been fitted, as have lowering springs (though it certainly doesn't look that much lower) and a custom exhaust.
