1970 Dodge Coronet 440 4 Door
I have owned this 70 Coronet since March 2004. I have worked on it and stored it on and off over the last 9+ years and now I have bought a 1970 Coronet convertible and a new 2012 Dodge Charger. Time for someone else to enjoy the 70 Coronet 4 Door. When I first got the car, it had a lot of water leaks in the trunk, I repaired all of them (mostly lack of seam sealer after a quick re-paint). I repaired a bad wheel bearing, replaced all 4 drum brakes, rebuilt the 904 transmission and did some other small upgrades. I also replaced the original seat covers with generic cloth covers. They are custom fit, but not the OEM upholstery. I have the originals for use as patterns in case you want to return to the OEM style. I replaced the carpet and converted the AC system to r1234a and installed a new compressor and condenser.
I drove the Coronet on and off over the years, as my business got busy, it tended to sit in storage a lot. in 2009 I decided to make it my daily driver and began a series of upgrades designed to make it a practical daily driver that I could have room in the back seat for my daughters and still have a bit of fun on the street. I collected a lot of parts for suspension upgrades and removed the original vinyl roof to find any last rust damaged. I found holes around the front and rear windows and that is when the plans stalled. The coronet sat in storage again until we found time in the shop to repaired the rust around both windshields.
Once I repaired the rust in the roof, by cutting out the bad metal and welding in new, I wasn't sure if replacing the vinyl top was a smart move. I decided it did need the black top to make the Ice Blue Metallic paint show well, but did not want the future rust issues that seem to come along with a vinyl top. So I used spray on bed liner material to replace the top! Now you have the look of a vinyl top and it is the best protection available for the roof. I then had the car repainted in the original B3-Ice Blue paint color, but used new basecoat / clearcoat paint. The underhood and under the decklid are still original paint.
Around that time, I purchased a new Charger (a 2006 R/T with the track pack performance group and a 5.7 Hemi). Well, that car changed all my plans and the charger became my daily driver and the 70 Coronet sat in storage again. I brought it out again last year (2012) and finished the suspension upgrades, added front and rear sway bars, added welded in torque boxes and frame connectors. I also replaced the steering gear box, idler arm, pitman arm and installed a new A/C compressor and replaced the evaporator (inside the car with the heater core). The factory A/C system blows cold and all the controls operate as they should.
Now I have bought another new car (a 2012 Charger R/T this time) and also recently found a purchased a one owner 1970 Coronet Convertible, so it is time for the 1970 Dodge Coronet 4-door to be enjoyed by a new owner. It is a 50 year old car and has issues, but overall it is a good running car that operates as it should, but it is not a new car! Most folks make statements on ebay about purchases being final and I have a slightly different philosophy. If you purchase the Coronet and come look at it and decide you do not want it, you do not have to buy it. I do ask that you cover the cost of the listing, but that is all. I own a Mopar shop and my reputation on ebay is important to us, we want happy customers!

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you
Thu, 21 Feb 2013As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
Roadkill builds crazy-cheap 1968 Dodge Charger rat rod using an old motorhome
Tue, 24 Dec 2013Certain requests for description simply cannot be fulfilled, like if someone asked you to describe Picasso's Guernica or Gilliam's Brazil. There is only one appropriate answer to such entreaties, and that is: "You just gotta see it." That's where we are with the latest episode of Roadkill, wherein Messr's Freiburger and Finnegan dig out a 1968 Dodge Charger that Freiburger acquired in exchange for a set of cylinder heads, and intend to stuff it with the big-block motor from a long-bed, three-quarter ton Dodge pickup.
Only the pickup is too nice to tear apart, and the Charger needs a whole lot more lovin' - and parts - than initially expected. Enter, stage right, the Class A Dodge Pace Arrow motorhome with a 440 big-block purchased for $1,000, and a retired Plymouth Fury from a previous episode.
What ensues over the course of the 40-minute installment is more cuttin', yankin', leakin', stallin', hammerin' and smokin' action than you've seen in a long time, and some techniques that would have made even Cooter wonder, "I'm not sure if we should do that." By the end, though, the payoff is good enough to make you think about perusing AutoTrader for a '68 Charger just to see if maybe...
Germany threatens to ban FCA vehicles over diesel emissions dispute
Tue, May 24 2016Germany is threatening to ban sales of FCA products over diesel emissions. According to the newspaper Bild Am Sonntag, Germany's Federal Motor Transport Authority found evidence of a so-called defeat device that shuts down certain emissions controls after running for 22 minutes. A standard diesel emissions test in the European Union reportedly takes 20 minutes to complete. FCA denies the allegations. "We believe all our vehicles respect EU emissions standards and we believe Italian regulators are the competent authority to evaluate this," the company said in a statement. The latter part of that statement drew ire from German authorities, especially after FCA declined to meet with German transport minister Alexander Dobrindt to discuss the issue. Graziano Delrio, the Italian Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, vowed to work with German authorities on behalf of FCA. According to EU law, FCA is required to homologate its vehicles in Italy because that's where its regional operations are based. When will the diesel-scented soap opera end? We wish we knew, but our Magic 8 Ball is covered in soot.
