1966 Dodge Coronet 500 2 door hardtop. This car is in pretty good condition. Some of the brightwork needs some attention,but overall it's in good shape considering the age. Always garaged,and NEVER driven in the rain. It has a 440 magnum big block with a Torqueflite 727 automatic transmission. The transmission was just completely rebuilt. It had developed leaks and had never been touched in its life so it was time. The engine has a large cam(not sure of lift or duration) but it is a thumper. Horsepower it well over 475 to 500. Edelbrock semi-rise Torquer intake manifold, and carb. It accelerates well.handles well and brakes very well. The front brakes have been converted to 67 Disc,while the rears remain original drum configuration. Paint is in great condition,and the interior is in pretty good shape considering its age. A new carpet set is probably in the future. Everything works except the stock radio ,and the gas guage reads a little funky every once in a while.I like to listen to the music the engine makes not the radio, but that's just me.It stands on 15" rims with the dog dish caps to give it the more aggressive look. Brand new 2 1/2" stainless exhaust with Magnaflow 40 series mufflers. The exhaust tips exit behind the rear wheels for a very "60's" look. This car sounds really wicked not only on idle, but upon acceleration. Car is located on Vashon Island,Washington, and has a clear title. Serious buyers only. $2,000.00 deposit through paypal and final amount via bank transfer ONLY. Please don't bother to ask what my reserve is, it's not fair to the other bidders. I reserve the right to end this auction before the deadline. Thanks

Chrysler killing off the 200 Convertible, Dodge Avenger
Sun, 23 Feb 2014When Chrysler rolled out the first-generation 200 to replace the Sebring range in 2010, it included replacements for both the sedan and the convertible. The Sebring Coupe, however, was left out of the mix. And now that the second-generation Chrysler 200 is descending upon us, Auburn Hills is paring things down even further. But this time, it's the convertible that reportedly isn't making the cut. Shame, too, since the rendering above shows what could have been quite an attractive droptop.
As our compatriots at Edmunds point out, sales of the convertible model accounted for less than five percent of overall Chrysler 200 sales, and at those numbers, the considerable cost of engineering a new drop-top couldn't be justified. With the Toyota Camry Solara and Volkswagen Eos also gone from the market (well, the VW isn't gone quite yet), the discontinuation of the Chrysler 200 Convertible leaves the affordable convertible segment largely to the sportier likes of the Ford Mustang and Chevy Camaro and smaller European offerings like the Mini Cooper and VW Beetle.
The Chrysler 200 Convertible isn't the only derivative being left behind with the new model: so too is the Dodge Avenger. That will leave a glaring hole in the Dodge lineup, with nothing to bridge the gap between the compact Dart and the larger Charger. Whether the Dodge brand has any plans to replace the Avenger with another model, not to be based on the 200, remains to be seen.
Chrysler recalls 1.2 million Ram pickup trucks
Sat, 09 Nov 2013Chrysler has announced that it will issue three separate recalls that will cover as many as 1.2 million Ram pickup trucks for "steering-system tie rods that may have been misaligned during assembly or steering-system service." The vast majority of these trucks were sold in the United States, though some trucks in Mexico, Canada or overseas will be called in, as well.
The largest of the three recalls covers an estimated 842,400 model-year 2003-2008 Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks. Two smaller campaigns will bring 294,000 model-year 2008-2012 Ram 2500 and 3500 pickups, chassis cabs and 2008 Ram 1500 4x4 Mega Cabs; plus 43,500 model-year 2008-2012 Ram 4500 and 5500 4x4 chassis cabs into the dealer to be checked and repaired if necessary.
This is a very large recall, and Chrysler says it is "casting the net wider than necessary to identify those vehicles that require repair." The automaker estimates that "as many as 726,000 may not need repair."
Chrysler extends fuel tank warranties on LX cars, NHTSA ends probe
Tue, 18 Feb 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has ended its investigation of 153,817, 5.7-liter and 6.1-liter Hemi V8-powered 2006 Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Dodge Magnum models after reports of stalling. Chrysler has responded by granting a lifetime warranty on the fuel tanks for these vehicles.
NHTSA received 299 reports of engines stalling while the models were stopped or driving at low speeds, and began an investigation. The government agency found that the control valve shutoff float in the V8s' 19-gallon fuel tank could malfunction if the fuel had too high of an ethanol content. In many cases, the valve would break in the open position, allowing the tank to be overfilled, which would then cause the cars to stall. However, there were no accidents reported, and the vehicles could be restarted immediately.
There will not be a recall on these vehicles because, "the condition represents a low risk to motor vehicle safety and is adequately addressed by Chrysler's extended warranty," NHTSA said to The Detroit News.
