1960 Dodge Pioneer
Offered for sale is this extremely rare 1960 Dodge Pioneer 2 door post. This was the very first year for the Dodge Dart and the uni-body construction. This beautiful example from the Chrysler Design Team of yesteryears, although pretty much the last year for the big fins from Mr. Exner's vision. This stunning automobile shows only 44,069 low miles on the odometer (unknown for sure if the mileage is original, but the condition of the car certainly does support the low mileage, as does the statement from the previous owner).
This very nice and rare Mopar did receive a very substantial cosmetic restoration a few years ago by the previous owner who had purchased the car in the early 70's. The car was repainted it's original color, a spruce green metallic with a white top. Most of the chrome was re-plated and the stainless steel trim work was polished. The interior was completely re-done as well, in a light jade green that very nicely compliments the attractive two-tone paint scheme. After enjoying the car for awhile, the owner put it in storage for a few years. The exterior paint still looks amazing, but there are a couple of very minor blemishes, scratches and imperfections that are normally seen on older restored drivers. The bumpers, sill plates and other components were re-chromed again last year and are absolutely gorgeous. All the stainless steel and aluminum trim is in excellent shape. Some of the pot metal has very minor pitting which is normal and to be expected on any older car.
The 318 V8 engine fires right up and purrs like a kitten. The push button Power Flite automatic transmission shifts very smoothly. The car runs and drives really, really nicely and is an absolute pleasure to drive. All the brakes were rebuilt by the previous owner a couple of years ago (new wheel cylinders, shoes, rebuilt mast cylinders, etc.). The glass is in great condition and most of the weather strip seals and rubber were replaced. All the electrical components work, except the radio. Even the foot pedal operating the windshield wipers works!
The aftermarket "mag" wheels and near new steel belted Kelly Charger P225 70 R 15 tires are a nice cosmetic and utilitarian addition to this very sharp looking car. I don't have the original wheels, but I have the original tires (Remington Cushion-Aire Poly 4ply Polyester Tubeless 478)! and they have very good tread still, but are quite a bit older and probably should only be used for display or collecting purposes. I also have a set of four original14" hubcaps, which the previous owner had left in the trunk. I think the car would look even better and more original with the hubcaps and while walled tires. A set of 14" steel wheels should not be too hard to find.
This very nice and attractive classic car does not need much, if anything at all and is ready to go as a great and enjoyable driver. You are welcome to come and inspect the car for yourself and appreciate it. A copy of the older - but original - build sheet found in the car will also be included! This gorgeous automobile is attractively and reasonably priced and has an easily attainable and equally reasonable reserve as well.
This older restored Mopar - First year of the Dodge Dart - is well worth the investment and will be a very nice and smart addition to any car collection. You would be hard pressed to find AND restore a car at this price level and enjoy if immediately as a really cool driver that you can take to cruises, car shows, etc.
A $520 non-refundable deposit is due immediately upon the end of the auction payable via PayPal, with the remaining balance due within 48 hours via Bank Wire. Car is sold as-is, sale is final with no return or refund. Buyer is responsible for all transportation and pick-up arrangements and associated costs to their location. Vehicle must be picked up within seven to ten days after the end of the auction. Extra time may be made available if necessary depending on the buyer's needs such as exporting.

Chevy Corvette Stingray defeating rivals where it matters most
Wed, 16 Jul 2014Everything is coming up roses for the award-winning Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, as new data from the North American Dealers Association dissected by GM Authority reveals that America's sports car is handily outselling two of its more expensive rivals.
Through June of 2014, the NADA notes that the Corvette has rung up 17,744 sales, handily besting the Porsche 911 and positively spanking the SRT Viper. Of course, you're sitting there thinking, "Corvette is outselling the much more expensive Porsche and Viper. Sky blue, water wet." But what's impressive here is just how thoroughly the Chevrolet is beating its two rivals, with this data serving as a testament to just how popular the seventh-generation sports car has become.
So far this year, Porsche has managed to move 5,169 911s, according to NADA. Considering that the base model starts at nearly $15,000 more than the most heavily optioned Stingray, and that Porsche owners have a vast, expensive options catalogue to select from, Stuttgart's sales are still plenty impressive in relation to the nearly 18,000 Corvettes sold.
Dodge Durango gets the Blacktop treatment
Sat, 09 Aug 2014The Dodge Durango is getting a meaner, more aggressive look as it becomes the latest model from the brand to wear the Blacktop Appearance Package. The upgrades are strictly cosmetic, but they lend the SUV a more assertive demeanor that some buyers like.
Available on the SXT, Limited and R/T (shown above) models, all Blacktop Durangos get black 20-inch wheels, dual exhaust, bod- color fascia and gloss black trim. The grille surround, air dam, mirrors and headlight surrounds all get the inky treatment, as well. The improvements add $1,590 to the cost of the SXT. They come to $1,990 on the Limited but also include HID headlights with LED running lights and a leather interior. Finally, R/T buyers only need to pay $295 for the upgrades. The Blacktop Durango hits showrooms this October.
If you're already in the market for a Durango but want a dash more style with no added performance, the Blacktop might not be a bad way to go. It certainly gives the SUV a bit more edge than it has in stock form. Scroll down to read the full release.
