Up for auction is a classic 1965 Dodge Coronet 440 2 Door Hardtop in very decent restorable condition or drive it as a daily driver. This car is tan in color with mostly original paint that is in daily driver condition. The car has tan cloth interior with a stock original bench seat with some front to rear tears and a back seat that is original and does not have any tears. The pictures do not show the back seat as it was out for floor cleaning of normal trash when I took the pictures. Starting at the front, grill and bumper decent but not perfect, left front fender has some damage at the front corner with some minor dents, hood has one minor ding, minor dents on the left door and left quarter panel, roof looks perfect, all glass nice condition, deck lid has no dents, rear bumper has some dents, right door and quarter panel have several small dents, minimal dents on the right front fender, some rust etching in the right front floor area, no rust through, very little rust etching in left front floor area, no rust through, left rear floor area has no rust, and right rear has some rust etching but again nothing close to rust through. The trunk floor area has some moderate rust etching and I noticed a few pin holes when I had the gas tank out for cleaning. The trunk area has been completely treated with por-15 and looks just fine. This car was sitting for over 15 years and I had to clean out the fuel system (fuel tank clean and no rust inside) rebuild the carburetor, replace some fuel hoses, minor tune-up, new timing chain, new water pump, new radiator hoses, new thermostat, rodded out radiator, new freeze plugs, and new anti-freeze.318 V-8 engine has good compression, does not smoke, but does still idle kind of rough when cold. Probably my carb rebuild but no big deal on that. This car has had the automatic transmission oil and filter replaced and works very well. All rear end seals and fluid have been replaced. New master cylinder, new wheel cylinders, new brake shoes, and the drums have been machined. Car has good tires including a spare and jack assembly. All lights work, car has factory air conditioning which seems to work ok, has a remote type left side mirror, and has a stock radio that does not work. This car was originally a power window car but none of the windows worked so I converted it to nice working original type manual windows. The interior door panels are pretty rough and will need replacing as well as the rear package tray and the carpets. I do still have most all of the original power window parts and they are available if someone wants to convert this car back to power windows. I think I have covered most every thing I can think up and if there are any questions, feel free to ask or give me a call at 408-507-4362. This car is currently registered up to date in Calif. with a current non-op title. Thanks for looking.

Chrysler minivans under investigation for stalling after fuel refill
Wed, 10 Sep 2014According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, at least one man has reported that his 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan stalled unexpectedly on the highway shortly after being refueled. The unidentified man who contacted NHTSA regarding the issue cited as many as eight similar instances reported by other drivers.
NHTSA has announced that it will launch an inquiry into this issue, which could affect as many as 160,000 minivans from Dodge and Chrysler that were sold in 2007 (or more, if a problem is found that extends to additional models years, we'd assume). As of yet, there's no formal investigation, let alone a recall, on these vans, as the agency is merely determining if further action is needed.
Two months ago, Chrysler recalled nearly 700,000 vehicles, the majority of which were minivans, from the 2008-2010 model years to replace ignition switches after an investigation found that their weak springs and detent positions could fool a driver into thinking the car was in the "Run" position, when it's actually in the "Accessory" position.
2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat en route to dealers
Sat, 15 Nov 2014Get ready, world: The 707-horsepower Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat has officially been unleashed. But rather than just have the big coupes quietly arrive at dealers, Dodge has released this video, showing Hellcats loading up onto car carriers at Fiat-Chrysler's Brampton, Ontario plant. And yes, that is Mötley Crüe's "Kickstart My Heart" playing in the background. Of course.
This really is worth all the fanfare, though, considering Dodge will sell its ridiculously powerful, supercharged machine for just $59,995. And if the Challenger isn't quite up your alley, just remember, there's an equally powerful, 204-mph, four-door Charger Hellcat on the way...
Chrysler patents smarter minivan folding seats
Thu, 02 Jan 2014It's frightening to think of how quickly the mice would have overtaken us if we hadn't stayed one step ahead of them with better mousetraps. We'll never have to worry about that in our relentlessly re-engineered world, though. Case in point: Chrysler has been granted a patent by the US Patent and Trademark Office for an improved design of the already wondrous Stow 'n' Go seating found in the automaker's Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans.
Introduced in 2005, the Stow 'n' Go was improved in 2008, and based on the drawings of this third-generation improvement, the new design appears to allow stowage of the second row of seats without having to move the front-row seats forward as much. It look like it also involves fewer operations and moving parts, with a portion of the seatback being incorporated into the flat floor when the seats are stowed, as opposed to having a completely separate cover.
It's possible that the innovation may appear on the next-generation minivans expected in 2015, but Chrysler isn't commenting on the patent.
