This is my 1969 convertible dodge coronet.I have had it for a couple years now and have not been able to restore it like I planned.It has only been driven 2301 miles in the last 32 years.I have a copy of the title from 1981 that shows it had 68000 miles on it.The title I have in my name shows exempt because the lady said it was too old to be accurate.I was told the 318 motor was the original when I purchased it but it is not.The motor is from a 1972.The motor runs good and the transmission shifts fine.The exhaust is shot and will need replaced.It has an 8 3/4 rear end with 3.23 gears.The convertible top back window will need replaced.The car has new wheels,tires and center caps.The back wheels are 15X8's and the fronts are 15X7's.The car had drums on the front when I got it and I have since put disc brakes from a 1970 charger on it.The last time I drove the car it has a leak in the brake line and air is getting in.So the brake light comes on.I installed new calipers,rubber brake hoses,new upper and lower ball joints,and master cylinder.The car has a power top and it works like it should.The top latch on the passenger side is broken.Drivers side is o.k..All glass is good.All gauges work.Radio is not hooked up.It has an aftermarket 8 track hooked up.I don t think it works but have not messed with it much.All the lights work.The car is licensed and insured but have not had time to drive it much.Need to fix the brake line that is getting air into the system and the exhaust before it can be road worthy.The car is a project car that will need total restoration.It does have some bondo in it here and there.The front frame where the torsion bars mount on the passenger side has a hole in it next to the rocker panel.The back frame rails look o.k.The car has undercoating from the factory and I am sure once you pull up the carpet there will be some holes to repair but no major holes.The trunk pan will need replaced or repaired.The car has alot of r/t items like hood scoops with chrome bezels,quarter panel scoops with chrome bezels and coronet r/t door plates.The car needs alot of work but is a rare car and will be worth it when done.I still owe $10,000.00 to the bank on it and it will need to be paid off before it can be transferred to another.

Dodge celebrates centennial with Charger and Challenger 100th Anniversary Editions
Tue, 19 Nov 2013In 1914, the Dodge brothers went from being a parts supplier to a full-scale automaker, and to celebrate the centennial of this milestone, Dodge will offer special editions of the 2014 Charger and Challenger early next year. Both cars will be sold in limited numbers (although no specific number was given), and these cars will stand out thanks to unique touches like 20-inch wheels, 100th anniversary edition logos and the exclusive High Octane Red Pearl Coat paint job (shown above).
The 100th Anniversary Edition package, which runs $2,200 on the 2014 Charger and $2,500 on the 2014 Challenger, comes with red or black leather seats with a cloud print (for a denim-like look) and metal badges on the seatbacks that read "Dodge Est. 1914," while similar logos are also found on the wheel center caps and front fenders. The instrument gauges are unique to each car, with the Charger getting black gauges and the Challenger getting white gauges, and to enunciate the 100-year anniversary, both cars have red numerals on the speedometer for the 100-mile-per-hour mark.
Finishing off the 100th Anniversary Edition cars, which will be offered on V6 and R/T models, Dodge adds a flat-bottom steering wheel and embroidered floor mats as a part of the package. Scroll down for the full press release for these commemorative models.
Dodge shows can-do attitude with grand Can'avan sculpture
Fri, 01 Nov 2013There are lots of ways to celebrate an important birthday, and all of them are well deserved. You can throw a big party, buy yourself something nice, or - if you're the altruistic type - do something for others in need. The latter is how Chrysler has opted to mark the 30th anniversary of its Dodge Grand Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country.
Together with hunger-advocacy organization Canstruction, the Chrysler Foundation has built a full-scale replica of the Grand Caravan out of 30,000 food cans in the square at the corner of Yonge and Dundas in Toronto, a ways down the highway from where the real vans are built in Windsor. The sculpture was built over the course of 10 hours by 30 volunteers and was displayed earlier this week.
Now the installation is being taken down, and the cans of food are being donated to the Daily Bread Food Bank, which will assemble them into 2,000 food baskets to be distributed to those in need through its network of 200 food banks across the Canadian metropolis. Check out a neat time-lapse video of the build and the press release below.
2014 Dodge Dart Blacktop hits the pavement ahead of Detroit
Tue, 07 Jan 2014Dodge is getting ready to spread the Blacktop-themed love to the smallest member of its lineup. Last year, the automaker offered up Blacktop versions of the Avenger, Challenger, Charger, Durango, Grand Caravan and Journey. And now the Dart, too, gets its dark on for 2014, with the $295 package offered on Dart SXT models equipped with the Rallye Appearance Group. The Dart Blacktop will make its debut at the Detroit Auto Show next week.
As with the other Blacktop special-edition models, the Dart Blacktop gets glossy black accents for a "sporty, sinister look." The blacked-out treatment spreads across the 18-inch wheels to the crosshair grille, grille surround and headlamp bezels. The interior sees a similar treatment, with black and light tungsten or black and ruby red cloth to go with red accent stitching on the instrument panel, center console and seat bolsters.
For the 2014 model year, all Dart SXT and Limited models receive the 2.4-liter MultiAir2 Tigershark engine with 184 horsepower and 174 pound-feet of torque, and since the Blacktop is based on the SXT, that's the powerplant buyers of this special-edition will get, too. Expect the 2014 Dart Blacktop to hit dealers in the first quarter, and while you're waiting, feel free to read more in the official press release below.
