Up for sale is a beautiful 1953 Dodge Coronet. Engine is the original 241 cu. In. Red Ram Hemi with factory dual point distributor, 6 volt system and Gyromatic transmission. Running gear and brakes are in great working order with 97k miles on the car. The car was resprayed some time ago in the factory color of Esquire Red. The overall condition of this car is great considering that it is original and appears to have been taken care of fairly well. Car is very reliable and can be driven daily. There is an oil change sticker in the door jamb that states 89k miles in 1973. There is another from southern California. I can make out 195’ something so it may have been from out there originally. It was in Sioux City Iowa when I found it. The steering and overall chassis are original. The car wanders a bit but drives fine otherwise. The interior is complete however needs restored. The dash board and steering wheel are complete and in really good condition. All of the dash lights work and dim when the panel light is adjusted. Gauges work. Fuel gauge doesn't read correctly. Heater, defroster and original two speed electric wipers all work. Glove box is fine. The radio turns on but is not working. This car has factory front and rear speakers both of which are still in the car. Headliner is there. The interior light is there and works. The front seat upper has a cover over the original material and is very old and torn. The upholstery on the lower section of the front seat is coming apart. The rear is original as well and in good general shape with some old mineral stains and small areas that are torn. Car has original seat belts up front and aftermarket belts at the rear seat. The driver’s side door glass is cracked but whole. The rest of the glass is in good general condition. All four door windows roll up and down cleanly. Trunk has the original hounds tooth mat made from a weave material and is stained. The spare tire is an old Allstate Cushion tubeless wide white wall 7.10-15 tire and in really good condition. The original jack is present as well. The exterior trim, bumpers and grill are all complete. There is pitting in some of the chrome, the bumpers have some surface rust, scratches and general use marks from 61 years of service however are very straight. The side trim is complete and so are the various emblems and hood ornament. The car has some rust in the front passenger floor up around the body mount. Somebody did a repair on the driver’s side that isn’t impressive. Both of these spots are from a leaky cowl vent and rubber floor mats over the 61 year life of the car. Otherwise the car is very solid including the trunk and spare tire well. This car isn’t perfect or close and has various dings, blemishes, scratches, chips, etc. that would be normal on an original 61 year old driver. Overall this is a very classic 1950s Americana piece. It’s been fantastic for cruising and general hopping around. This car puts more smiles on faces than I can explain.
Title is clear, in my name and registered here in Florida. This vehicle is being sold as is, where is with no warranties or guarantees offered or implied. Sale is final, buyer is liable for any shipping. Please ask any questions you may have. The car is available locally (Fort Myers, FL) for in person inspections. I require a $1000. Non Refundable Deposit within 48 hours of the auction ending. The balance will be paid in full before the car leaves or sits on a trailer. No exceptions. I will hold the car up to a month with proper communication. |

2019 Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack 1320 gets race-focused upgrades
Thu, Jul 19 2018The Dodge Challenger SRT Demon is one hell of a machine. It's a single-minded 840-horsepower jackhammer, meant solely to burn rubber and win drag races. It's packed with all sorts of goodies like a transbrake, line lock, and a torque reserve mode. Still, it was an extremely limited-production model. It's also sold out. What do you do if you want some fun on the drag strip and you can't find our don't need the power of a Demon? Buy the new 2019 Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack 1320. You can really think of the Scat Pack 1320 as a Demon without the wide bodywork and the supercharged 6.2-liter V8. Instead, you'll find Dodge's tried-and-true 6.4-liter naturally-aspirated V8 under the hood making 485 horsepower and 475 pound-feet of torque. The TorqueFlite 8HP70 eight-speed automatic is the only available transmission. It's required equipment to use the TransBrake and Torque Reserve system. All-four wheels are wrapped in Nexen SUR4G Drag Spec 275/40R20 street-legal drag radial tires. The 1320 names comes from the length of a quarter-mile drag strip — 1,320 feet. The Scat Pack 1320 can run the quarter-mile in 11.7 seconds at 115 mph and hits 60 mph in just 3.8 seconds. Of course, that's in its lightest configuration. Like the Demon, the Scat Pack 1320 only comes with a driver's seat. The passenger and rear seats are each $1 options. The goal was to give grassroots racers a bare-bones performance car at a relatively reasonable price. You don't need passengers if you're only racing. You also shave 114 pounds from the car's curb weight. Other upgrades include an SRT-tuned suspension, a 3.09 rear axle ratio, 41-spline rear half-shafts, 20 x 9.5-inch aluminum-forged wheels with knurled bead seats (to keep the tires from slipping on the rim) and upgraded Brembo brakes with four-piston calipers. The Challenger R/T Scat Pack 1320 joins a number of other upgraded 2019 Dodge models. That includes the Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye and the upgraded 2019 Charger SRT Hellcat. The Scat Pack 1320 adds $3,995 to the Challenger R/T Scat Pack's base MSRP. That's not the whole story. Since the automatic is mandatory, you need to tack on another $1,595. Add in destination, and the Scat Pack 1320 will set you back at least $45,980. Cars will hit dealer lots early next year. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Dodge might bring back the Stealth nameplate as an SUV, and that has implications for the Durango as well. Ford, after repeatedly raising prices, has turned around and significantly discounted the F-150 Lightning across all trims. The first Tesla Cybertruck has rolled off the line as a pre-production prototype.

Viper fans are at the Nurburgring to reclaim production-car speed record
Fri, Jul 21 2017With the outgoing generation of the Viper, Dodge missed a fabulous opportunity to set another Nurburgring lap record. The company did it, twice, with the previous-generation Viper ACR, but never went back with the latest ACR, and it definitely won't now that the car is being discontinued. This is why a group of Viper fans began fundraising back in January to take ACRs to the 'Ring for one more shot at glory. And, right now, that group is in Germany preparing for the attempt. The team made it thanks to support from GoFundMe donors, and sponsorship from Kumho Tires and Prefix, a design and prototype company based in Michigan. They're using two Viper ACR GTS-R commemorative-edition cars, which are appropriate for competing track cars since they have the same white-with-blue-stripes color scheme as Dodge's old Viper GTS-R racecars. The cars are supplied from ViperExchange and BJ Motors and equipped with Kumho Ecsta V720 tires. According to the group's Facebook page, the team has been practicing since Wednesday, July 19. A video posted today highlighted that the only mechanical issue so far has been an overheating problem that was solved with a new thermostat. Each car is running a different suspension setup for practice - one soft, the other hard - and they'll adjust them as needed. The plan is that both cars will use the same setup on the record attempt. To claim the record without any argument will require beating the 6:45.9 time set by the Nio EP9 electric car. Right behind it is the Radical SR8LM, which is technically street-legal, but not really a street car. It set a time of 6:48. As for true street cars with gasoline engines, the target the Viper team will really want to beat is the Lamborghini Huracan Performante, which pulled off a time of 6:52. You can track the team's progress at its Facebook page. Related Video: Image Credit: Dodge Auto News Motorsports Dodge Coupe Performance Supercars dodge viper acr nio ep9
