I am selling my 1991 Dodge Shadow “Shelby CSX” convertible to make room for another recent purchase.  I am moving this car due to space limitations, there is no problem with the car.

For the record, the last production vehicles produced by Shelby for Dodge were the 1989 Shelby CSX and Dakota.  Dodge Shadow convertibles were made from 1991-1993.  So this is obviously not a real Shelby, and I am not presenting it as such.

This is really a tribute car, or a concept of what a CSX convertible might have looked like if the relationship had continued into 1991.

This car was made from a 1991 Shadow that had over 100,000 miles.  It was stripped to the shell, and rebuilt using NOS, or like-new components.  The mileage (16,7xx) shown is the true mileage from the conversion.  That is the true mileage for the drivetrain, suspension, etc.

The car is well maintained, clean, and drives like new.  The major flaw is the headliner (the 6” strip) needs to be replaced.  The glue dried, and the fabric was removed when it started sagging.

The highlights of the car include:

?  2.5 L inline four, turbo and intercooled

?  Rear disc brake conversion

?  Koni adjustable shocks with performance springs at all four corners

?  Cross drilled rotors with powerdoated calipers, and SS brake lines.

?  Turbos unleashed Garrett turbo

?  A555 close ratio 5 speed transmission

?  1989 Sheby CSX fabric on doors, seats

?  Recaro front buckets

?  Custom Shelby dash plaque

?  Carroll Shelby autographed tachometer

?  Shelby Turbo boost gauge

?  1989 Shelby CSX ground effects, including front air dam, rear fascia, side skirts with door panels, and grill

?  Fiberride Shelby wheels from an ’89 CSX (Fiberglass composite)

?  Powdercoated gas tank

There is more that I probably cannot think of.  The pictures will tell more than I can say about the condition of the car.  It is garage kept, babied, and wins or places in every car show I have taken it to.  Most recently was awarded a Gold award at the 2014 Florida Mopar Nationals (March), and placed 3rd in the front drive class at the 2013 Don Garlits Mopar Show (Oct ’13).  This is a very fun car to drive, show, and just look at.  Looking for a good home for it!

Dodge unveils Special Service Durango for government fleets

Fri, 18 Oct 2013

Straight off its refresh, the Dodge Durango is slipping back into its dress blues and getting back to work. The 2014 Dodge Durango Special Service Vehicle boasts all the refinements and improvements that the refreshed, civilian-spec model received, most notably a 15-percent improvement in fuel economy.
Designed for police and fire departments, and as Chrysler's answer to the Ford Police Interceptor Utility and Chevrolet Tahoe PPV in the growing service SUV market, the Durango boasts a 600-mile range, thanks to the addition of an eight-speed automatic, available on both the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 and 5.7-liter Hemi V8. Equipped with the 360-horsepower Hemi, the Durango SSV can tow up to 7,400 pounds (the V6 is limited to 6,200 pounds).
Police and fire department Durangos get a few special features over the civilian models. The electric systems are ruggedized, with a heavy duty battery and a 220-amp alternator in place, while the engine's water pump and oil cooler are both stronger. The brakes are tougher, and a load-leveling suspension has been fitted, too.

Chrysler recalling 67k trucks with manual transmissions

Tue, Dec 30 2014

Earlier this month, Chrysler announced the recall of some 280,000 pickup trucks over concerns that their axles could seize up. Now the automaker has announced an entirely separate recall of another 66,819 trucks over the springs that could break in the clutch ignition interlock switch. The recall affects Dodge Ram 1500, 2500 and 3500 pickups, as well as the Dodge Dakota and Mitsubishi Raider. The issue is relevant only to those trucks fitted with manual transmissions, from the 2006 and 2007 model years and manufactured between July 1, 2005, and July 31, 2006. Since a broken spring could, according to statements issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and FCA US LLC (previously known as the Chrysler Group) prevent the vehicle from starting, or cause it to move unintentionally once the ignition kicks over, the automaker will begin notifying owners of the affected vehicles just before Valentine's Day to bring their trucks into their local dealers to have the clutch ignition interlock switch replaced. FCA emphasizes, however, that the unintended movement would only occur "in rare cases" and only "if recommended starting procedures are not followed." Only one such case is known to have occurred, but it did regrettably result in a fatality. Statement: Clutch Ignition Interlock Switch December 29, 2014 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - FCA US LLC is launching a voluntary global recall of an estimated 66,819 older-model pickup trucks equipped with manual transmissions. The Company will replace their clutch ignition interlock switches at no charge to customers. An investigation by FCA US engineers discovered switches in certain model-year 2006 and 2007 pickups may be equipped with spring wire that differs from wire used in previous switches. The alternate wire may break and, as a result, the vehicles may not start. In rare cases, a vehicle may – if recommended starting procedures are not followed – exhibit unintended movement when its ignition key is turned. The Company is aware of one fatality related to this campaign. It stemmed from the single known accident involving this population of vehicles. The recall covers certain Dodge Dakota, Dodge Ram 1500, 2500, 3500 and Mitsubishi Raider pickups. Switches with the alternate wire were not used in any vehicles produced before July of 2005, or after June of 2006. The Dakota and Raider are no longer in production.

Weekly Recap: Things you might not know about the 2015 Dodge Charger and Challenger Hellcats

Sat, 16 Aug 2014

If you're an enthusiast, and you don't know that Dodge spawned another Hellcat this week, you really must have been living in cave. The 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat is probably the biggest news for enthusiasts since the reveal of, well the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat.
But, there are some things you might not know or might have missed about the new Charger and Challenger Hellcats. For starters, reports that the Hellcat production would be limited to a low volume are not true.
"We have not capped the Hellcat on either the Challenger or the Charger," Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis said.
