 This is my 1970 Dodge Coronet 440 for sale. It has a 318 Engine, and is a 4 door. I shaved the rear outside door handles to make it look more sporty like a 2 door....see pictures. Of course both rear doors can be opened from the inside, but you never have to worry about locking them. Also the advantage of a 4 door like this is the fact that the doors are not nearly as heavy as a 2 door, thus they will never sag or have trouble closing them.
The car runs near perfectly, with the exception of a bit of crackling while going uphill which is from a bit of lack of lead since gas stations no longer carry leaded gas. Although I add lead additive at every fill up, it may need a little more for the first couple of fill ups. When on  level terrain there is nothing but the purring of the awesome sounding engine. Also, the charge of the alternator is high, not sure why, but it does not affect the engine performance at all. See picture. This car has great pick up, and runs great in the city and highway. The engine was rebuilt about 20,000 miles ago, and it is really a smooth runner! Because of the engine being rebuilt, the mileage listed above shows whats on the dashboard, but is really exempt on the title. All gauges, lights and blinkers work fine.
The body is pretty much straight without rust except where the pictures show the passenger front corner panel damage. The hood is a bit tough to shut, and has to be pushed in as you are shutting it because of that corner panel. I was the victim of a hit and run unfortunately. Pictures show the damage to that corner panel. The paint is pealing slightly in a few places such as around the door handles and part of the front corner panel, but can only be seen up close. All 4 tires still have original hub caps, and have plenty of tread. The original radio is still in the dash. Not sure if it works, or the condition of the speakers. Much of the interior was vinyl painted sandstone/beige color, like the dashboard and doors. A couple minor cracks in the dashboard, but overall decent for a car of this age. Seat covers are on the front and back seats. I believe the interior is decent underneath, but I put the seat covers on because they match the beige color of most of the other interior. Seats are bench seats, and the head rests for the front seat are in the trunk with covers on them as well. All 4 tires have a decent amount of tread on them.
Battery, belts, alternator, and voltage regulator are all brand new. Vehicle includes spare tire and Jack. Very minor surface rust in the trunk.
Any questions please don't hesitate to ask! Thank you.

2014 Dodge Durango teaser reveals new 'racetrack' taillights

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

Not wanting to let Jeep get all of the SUV attention for the 2014 model year, Dodge is unveiling a refreshed version of its Durango at the New York Auto Show. Teased in this image, all we can really tell about the 2014 Dodge Durango is that it will be getting Dodge's "racetrack" taillights similar to the Charger and Dart.
The chrome or painted strip currently between the Durango's Zorro taillamps have been removed to allow for a full-width LED array with "DODGE" lettering displayed more prominently above the license plate pocket. Parent company Chrysler also promises that the updated Durango will add "several new class-exclusive features," but stops short of saying what those are. Earlier reports suggest that among the changes, buyers will be able to look forward to an eight-speed automatic gearbox, which ought to improve the three-row SUV's fuel efficiency.

Ron Burgundy calls Durango a 'terrible car,' yet his ads help sales climb by 59% [w/videos]

Fri, 22 Nov 2013

Ron Burgundy was put on this planet to do one thing: to read the news. If that ever falls through, though, the womanizing, scotch-drinking anchorman could have a great career just as a Dodge salesman. Bloomberg points out that sales of the 2014 Dodge Durango have rocketed up 59 percent in the first month of Chrysler's funny new ad campaign (which began in early October). But then again, the entire year has been strong for the big SUV, with year-over-year sales increases in the double and even triple digit percentages - including an increase of 117 percent in August.
Of course, the Durango has also received a wealth of new content and a freshened look for 2014 in addition to the Burgundy campaign, and that has to be helping close sales, too. Whether or not the spots themselves are leading to more sales may be a moot point, since they are definitely getting plenty of attention. Almost two months into the marketing tie-up between Dodge and the movie Anchorman 2, Dodge's YouTube videos have received well over seven million views. More than just YouTube shorts and television commercials, the Durango has even received late-night attention, including when Will Ferrell showed up in character as Ron Burgundy on Conan earlier this week.
In the interview, he calls the Durango a "terrible car" that "cracked in half," a joke that probably had Dodge ad execs squirming uncomfortably in their Barcaloungers. Scroll down to watch the Conan interview as well as some of our favorite Burgundy-pitched Durango ads. And there's still plenty of time to "touch" Ron to win a new Durango.

2013 Dodge Durango R/T

Tue, 19 Feb 2013

Not too long ago, Chevrolet got itself into some trouble by throwing the SS badge on just about everything it produced, so I've always been a little hesitant about the seemingly excessive use of the R/T nameplate on Dodge vehicles. For the 2013 model year, every model in Dodge's lineup has an R/T trim level from Dart all the way up to the Durango. Although the R/T name used to signified models made for road and track, I doubt anyone would be delusional enough to assume the Durango - and some of the other models wearing this badge - are suited for any sort of track duty.
Still, when this 2013 Dodge Durango R/T rolled up for me to drive for the week, I couldn't help but take in its big, mean and imposing stance. Sure, if I had my choice of buying any of the Dodge R/T products, the Charger and Challenger would be my top picks for sure, but it's easy to say that the Durango would be a close third - far above the R/T versions of the Avenger, Journey and Grand Caravan.
