Up for auction is this very nice daily driver quality 1968 Dodge Coronet Super Bee Clone. This is a pretty rare coronet in that it is a factory Big block 383 car, with DISC brakes and factory a/c. Pretty much born a superbee but cost way more than a superbee. It has very nice interior with a mint set of seats, brand new dash pad etc. Custom CD player mounted in glovebox door. The engine is a 383 with 4 barrel, very sanitary under the hood, i don't know if its the original engine or not, never checked. The engine fires right up, runs excellent, trans shifts nice and brakes work good. I have owned this car for about 7 years and have driven it a few thousand miles, including a 500 mile round trip a couple years back for a car show. cruises great at 70 mph. 8 3/4 rear i am guessing 3.23 for the rear end. The car is rock solid, no rust on floors or trunk, frame is mint. Body is very nice, only a few small bubbles on the lower rear quarters, mainly passenger side. The paint is probably 10 years old, and still shines well, few chips and scratches. A new paint job and this car would be unbelievable. Bum;ers are good driver quality. I have a few mopars, and have only driven this car 2-3 times in the last couple years, so it may need plugs/wires normal maintenance in the near future. I always run 93 octane in my classics. 20w50 castrol GTX oil. The wheels are sweet torq thrust style tires are nice and beefy, and have tons of tread. You will not be disappointed with this car it would make an excellent cruise/daily driver car. I am listing this car NO RESERVE, it's time for me to thin the collection some. I reserve the right to end this auction early at any time for any reason, as car is for sale locally. Please ask with any questions. Thanks and good luck.

Dodge lets us drive 100-years' worth of history [w/videos]
Thu, 03 Jul 2014
A raft of important production models from the last hundred years were available for me to either drive or ride in.
Dodge is 100 years old this year. So, as happened on Ford's recent centennial, the 50-year birthday of the Porsche 911, and others, the company has an excuse to trot out the highlights of its history next to its upcoming model lineup, and declare that "these are the fruits of the Dodge Boys' tree whose roots have grown strong." Or something like that. Never so hampered by marketing skepticism that I'll pass up the opportunity to burn someone else's rubber, I was happy to drive out to Meadow Brook Hall in Rochester Hills, MI - former grand estate of the Dodge family - to hear the spiel.
Chrysler's Jefferson North plant builds 5-millionth SUV [w/video]
Thu, 15 Aug 2013Chrysler's Jefferson North Assembly Plant opened in 1992 for production of the first Jeep Grand Cherokee, but in the subsequent years, the Detroit plant has gone on to produce some of the company's biggest SUVs including the Jeep Commander and Dodge Durango. Earlier this week, the plant produced its five-millionth SUV, which, fittingly, was a Grand Cherokee.
Celebrating the plant's five-millionth unit, the silver 2014 Grand Cherokee was promptly donated to the USO. In addition to this milestone SUV, Chrysler also had a near-perfect 1993-95 ZJ Grand Cherokee on hand for the photo op. Scroll down for the Chrysler press release as well as a video showing some of the speeches from the celebration.
Aficionauto drives Vin Diesel's fast and furious 1970 Dodge Charger
Mon, 15 Sep 2014The Aficionauto host Christopher Rutkowski has a real passion for original and replica cars from movies and television, whether they are from James Bond, Jurassic Park, or incredibly obscure Japanese shows. However, he might have outdone himself this time because he hopped into one of the biggest automotive stars of contemporary cinema. This 1970 Dodge Charger appeared in Fast & Furious and came back in Fast Five, where Paul Walker actually drove it. The menacing, black muscle car will make its return to the franchise in the seventh film, too.
The Fast and Furious Charger is a real beast no matter how you look at it. The interior is nothing more than two seats and a roll cage, and as the video shows, this thing vibrates constantly like a coiled mass of muscle ready to strike. The camera can barely stay in place most of the time. Also, Dom's Dodge is more than happy to do a smoky burnout and leave the driver partially deaf afterward from its wonderful, ear-splitting engine roar.
The Aficionauto also interviews the man who controls the keys to this beast. Bob Hartwig was once an F-15 pilot, but he also loved Hollywood vehicles. Now, he's a partner at Picture Car Warehouse, a company with about 850 cars that supplies vehicles to film studios. This Charger definitely seems to be Hartwig's favorite in the collection, as it should be.
