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.

2013 Dodge Charger AWD Sport
Tue, 29 Jan 2013We won't beat around the bush: The all-wheel-drive Dodge Charger is not a brand new car. This generation launched in 2011, AWD models and all. But for 2013, Chrysler has added an optional sport package to the AWD model, available with both the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 or the sweet, sweet 5.7-liter Hemi V8. The upgrades for this new sport pack are mainly cosmetic; a gloss black grille, new 19-inch alloy wheels and body-colored rear spoiler make up the list of exterior changes. Inside, there are new sport seats and paddle shifters, and the eight-speed automatic transmission has been reflashed for better performance.
But because vehicles like the Dodge Charger mainly stick out in our minds as being rear-drive bruisers, Chrysler wanted to give us the opportunity to test out the LX platform's foul-weather prowess. And perhaps no place more appropriate to test such a system was way up in Michigan's Upper Peninsula in the dead of winter.
Driving Notes
South Dakota dealer filled to brim with classic cars
Wed, 12 Mar 2014Other than the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and Mount Rushmore, South Dakota isn't generally a hot topic, but that just means that cool stuff can hide in the open waiting to be discovered. Case in point: the classic car dealer Frankman Motor Company that operates three locations in Sioux Falls, SD.
Unearthed by the folks at Bring a Trailer, Frankman is a treasure trove of vintage, American iron. Their collection is full of the type of vehicles your irresponsible but cool uncle would show up with when you were a kid. Even better, these cars are priced at a level a working man can afford.
If you are lusting about a cruiser then Frankman has a 1956 Cadillac Deville Hard Top Sedan (pictured right) with 82,896 miles for $12,975. It's painted a color called Cascade Grey, but looks more like a pastel purple in pictures. While it needs some repairs to the accessories, the Caddy runs and drives, which is all you really need.
Custom 2014 Dodge Durango R/T proves SEMA can be subtle
Thu, 07 Nov 2013The annual SEMA Show in Las Vegas can often be a sensory overload of overwrought madness, with cars that don't even look drivable anymore. But every once in a while, a modestly modified show car graces our presence, like the customized Dodge Durango you see here, which, in addition to giving us our first glimpse at the aftermarket possibilities for the refreshed-for-2014 model, proves that a car doesn't have to be slammed, scooped, donked and Lambo-doored to have presence.
Sure, this Durango has custom hood inserts, dark 22-inch wheels and custom fender flares, but as far as external modifications go, that's it. Inside, Dodge has fitted new door sill guards, an ambient lighting kit, bright pedals, premium floor mats and - of course - Katzkin leather. The automaker has even added wireless internet connectivity as part of the excellent Uconnect infotainment system.
Performance upgrades are minimal on this Durango R/T, which comes packed with Chrysler's 5.7-liter Hemi V8. Larger brakes have been fitted, as have lowering springs (though it certainly doesn't look that much lower) and a custom exhaust.
