1989 Dodge Dakota 3.9 V6 Automatic Long Bed Pick-Up

Not a bad little truck. Could be restored, a big block dropped in it or a race truck.. or just a get around beater. Your choice.

I am selling this for my brother as-is so I am listing what I know and was told.

The cab and outer bed quarters have seen better days. The pics show the major bad points or rust and dents. The interior of the bed area is solid however from what I cab tell. The Poly tool box is included with the truck. The passengers side back window glass has been silicone but I don't believe it leaks. The rear bumper is in rough shape as you can tell by the pics...I wouldn't suggest towing anything.

The tires are if fair shape except for the drivers rear. There is a leak and wont hold air for very long and the sidewalls are deeply cracked and split.

The interior is pretty well trashed. The seats are ripped, dash cracked, no headliner, the hood release is just a cable but can be pulled with pliers to open, and lots of missing trim pieces. The washer control and headlight arm is a bit loose and wore. Defroster/heat controls are not working, so I assume its a heater control valve or broken cable/hose...but never found out where the heck it is/was.

The engine is a 3.9 V6 engine that runs and gets it down the road. My brother was using this as regular transportation to work and back until purchasing a different car. It does take some time to fire up acting like a bad battery but the battery is only about a year old so I am thinking it could just use a good set of battery cables or ends.

The transmission is an automatic. Still shifts and doesn't slip to latest accounts.

Sold as-is, no warranty or guarantees.

Local pick up only. The truck drives but a can a fix a flat or a spare should be brought along for rear tire leak.

Good luck and happy bidding.

eBay Find of the Day: Viper Defender from '90s TV show

Fri, 24 May 2013

As car lovers, it's always hard to find a good television show with decent cars, but what the 1990s show Viper lacked in acting, scripting and plot, it more than made up for with cool cars. For starters, the lead car was a Dodge Viper RT/10, but, on screen, it was able to morph into its "Defender" mode making it an armored coupe with a full arsenal of weapons.
Fortunately, you don't have to be a fan of the bad show to love its lead car, and if you really want one, a Defender is up for auction right now on eBay. According to the listing, this car is the real deal - not a clone - and it comes with a V8 engine (not sure what happened to the V10?) and plenty of swag and memorbilia. No word on its actual asking price, but with a day left and 42 bids already, the reserve has not been met at $133,400. The listing does add that this same car was listed at Mecum back in 2010, but did not get sold, even with a bid of $270,000.

Weekly Recap: Ferrari plans to gradually increase production by 2019

Sat, Oct 17 2015

Ferrari has long been known for the exclusivity of its performance machines. It's on a different level than Porsche, BMW, and Mercedes. But as it transitions to a new era of independence from Fiat Chrysler, Ferrari is going to get a little less exclusive. It's by design, and it means a subtle, slow ramp-up of production – a move Ferrari believes will ensure its future by meeting growing demand in new markets. The strategy was detailed in SEC documents filed this month as part of the company's pending stock offering. The files reveal Ferrari will gradually increase shipments to about 9,000 units per year by 2019. This is a reversal of Ferrari's 2013 plans to cap production at 7,000 cars annually, which it hit on the nose that year. Ferrari shipments inched up to 7,255 in 2014, though that's down from 2012's record tally of 7,405. Ferrari is a vastly different operation than it was in 2013. Longtime chairman Luca di Montezemolo stepped down last fall, and FCA chief executive Sergio Marchionne has been overseeing the company since then. Its IPO has attracted high levels of attention from enthusiasts and investors. As expected, demand has reportedly outstripped the availability of the stock, which has an estimated offering price of $48 to $52 a share. Speaking of more Ferraris, the company revealed a limited-edition model this week called the F12tdf (shown above). Based on the F12 Berlinetta, the car is a salute to the Tour de France endurance auto race that Ferrari dominated in the 1950s and '60s. The V12 engine's output increases to 769 horsepower, while weight is cut by 243 pounds – allowing for a sprint to 60 mph in 2.9 seconds. Dramatic carbon-fiber elements and a radical redesign of the body panels give the F12 a more dramatic look. It will be limited to 799 units over the life of the car. If this is how Ferrari is increasing production, we're more than okay with the company's new strategy. OTHER NEWS & NOTES Tesla software unlocks Autopilot features Tesla released the latest version of its software for the Model S this week, which allows the all-electric sedan to drive in a semi-autonomous state called Autopilot. Tesla Version 7.0 enables the Model S to maintain lane position, change lanes by touching the turn signal, and manage the car's speed using an advanced, traffic-sensing cruise control. It also has a parallel parking feature, which searches for open spots and then parks your Tesla.
