1973 Dodge D-100 Adventurer with 400 magnum Big Block Engine

39,134 miles on the engine.

400 Magnum Big Block V8 High Performance Engine (Runs on Premium Fuel).

4 Barrel Edelbrock Carburetor

Dual exhaust from headers into red cherry pickers.

Rebuilt 727 3-Speed Automatic Transmission (rebuilt July 2013 by Moses Lake Transmission in Moses Lake, WA).

MSD Ignition System (new March 2014)

Electric fuel pump.

New Spark Plugs (March 2014).

MSD Laser Gauges in dash.

Aluminum and Mopar parts throughout.

Hurst Grip Automatic Shifter with Chrome Indy H Stick.

Rally Full Windshield Rearview Mirror (3 ft).

4 point harness black leather bucket seats with fold down center console and under seat storage.

CD Player/Am-FM Radio/MP3 Aux with amplified and high performance speakers.

Tow Hitch with 7-Way Plug (Wiring goes to under the dash, but needs a brake control unit).

Only 39,200 miles on the engine.

Kill Switch for the ignition system is set up and ready, but it is not hooked up. I currently have the MSD ignition system hooked directly to the battery.

This truck is awesome and runs like a dream, but here's a few minor things your should know about going into the bid.

The body of the truck is good, but it is not perfect. Take a look at the passenger side image you can see some minor dents along the door and truck bed. The back bumper is fiberglass and has 2 small cracks on it. The cap and tailgate have some holes and dents where a canopy was secured (see rear truck image).

There is a new float in the gas tank, but the new float is an old design that does not synchronize with the new MSD laser gauge. You will need to purchase another float to sync this up.

The gas tank is behind the seat. I am pretty sure it is 22 gallons. I got 15-18 MPG going 50-60 miles per hour on a recent trip of 2,800 miles from central WA, to southern CA, to San Antonio TX.

Going over the Cascade mountain passes (and all other driving) the truck never went over 2,000 RPM.

The drivers side seat has a worn patch on the leather.


This is a great truck and has plenty of power.

I have a reserve set on this truck. I hate going into a bidding scenario and not knowing what the reserve is, so I will tell you up front, my reserve is set at $10,000. I have well over $10,000 worth of parts in this truck, not including my blood, sweat, and tears and I wouldn't be selling this if my current situation didn't demand it.

NHTSA closes investigation on 4.7M FCA power modules, no recall

Thu, Jul 30 2015

FCA US hasn't had the best time with recalls as of late. Not only did the company recently agree to greater safety oversight and paid $105 million to the government, that came just days after hacking fears prompted a 1.4-million model recall campaign. However, a recent decision to close an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration means that the automaker doesn't have to worry about another major recall possibly affecting 4.7 million vehicles, according to the agency's report (as a PDF). Last September, the Center for Auto Safety petitioned NHTSA to investigate an alleged problem with the totally integrated power module (TIPM) on these FCA US models. The group claimed that a fault with the component could cause a variety of maladies, including stalls, not starting, catching fire, unintended acceleration, and airbag non-deployment. At the time, it also submitted 70 cases where this had reportedly happened. According to NHTSA, "no valid evidence was presented in support of claims related to airbag non-deployment, unintended acceleration, or fire resulting from TIPM faults and these claims were found to be wholly without merit based on review of the field data and design of the relevant systems and components." The agency did find signs of an issue with the fuel pump relay in some Jeep Grand Cherokees and Dodge Durangos, but FCA US issued recalls for the problem in September 2014 and February 2015. Without anything else to go on, the Feds don't think it's worth investigating this topic any more.

Stellantis reports record margins, $7B profits despite chip shortage

Tue, Aug 3 2021

MILAN — Automaker Stellantis on Tuesday said it achieved faster-than-expected progress on synergies and record margins in its first six months as a combined company, despite suffering 700,000 units in lower production due to interruptions in the semiconductor supply chain. The company — formed from French carmaker Peugeot PSAÂ’s takeover of the Italian-American company Fiat Chrysler — reported net profit of 5.9 billion euros ($7 billion) in the first half of 2021, compared with a loss 813 million euros during the same period a year earlier, which was impacted by the coronavirus restrictions around the globe. Shipments rose 44% to 3.2 million units, while revenues rose 46% to 75 billion euros. “We are very pleased with the speed with which the new team has begun to execute as one company, as Stellantis,Â’Â’ Chief Financial Officer Richard Palmer told reporters. Semiconductor shortages accounted for 200,000 units of production losses in the first quarter and 500,000 in the second quarter. Semiconductors are used more than ever before in new vehicles with electronic features such as Bluetooth connectivity and driver assist, navigation and hybrid electric systems. Stellantis achieved 1.3 billion euros in cost savings in the first half, mostly by sharing investments in new technologies and platforms, which Palmer said was a faster rate than initially forecast. It aims to achieve 80% of the targeted 5 billion in cost savings by 2024. “These synergies allow us to continue to invest in the electrification strategy, which we talk about every day,” Palmer said. Stellantis, which lags competitors in rolling out electric vehicles, plans to launch 21 fully electric or plug-in gas electric hybrid vehicles over the next two years. North American posted record profitability on global sales of Ram trucks and the strong launch of the Jeep Wrangler 4xe, which was the best-selling plug-in gas electric vehicle in the United States in the second quarter. Stellantis was the market leader in South America and second in Europe. The results were presented on a pro-forma basis, taking into account the performance of each of the carmakers as separate entities during 2020.

Dodge Journey recalled for freezing fluid lines

Sun, May 8 2016

The Basics: FCA is recalling 10,944 examples of the 2009-16 Dodge Journey - specifically those equipped with the optional engine block heaters and located in extremely cold climates. The Problem: Power steering fluid lines may leak when starting the engine in extremely cold weather, which would increase the amount of effort required to steer the vehicle. Injuries/Deaths: FCA reports that it is "unaware of any related injuries or accidents." The fix: The manufacturer is working on expediting replacement parts to resolve the issue in those vehicles potentially affected. If you own one: Expect to hear from the manufacturer soon to arrange service. Your chances of being affected are higher if you live in Canada, where a far greater number – estimated at 187,436 – of Journeys may be affected. Related Video: STATEMENT: FLUID LINE May 6, 2016 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - FCA US LLC is voluntarily recalling an estimated 10,944 U.S.-market midsize crossover vehicles equipped with optional block heaters to address fluid-line durability in extreme, cold-weather conditions. An investigation found some lines carrying power-steering fluid may leak at engine start-up, when the vehicle is subject to extreme cold. Steering is not lost in such circumstances. However, if a vehicle is so-affected, the amount of physical effort required to steer may increase. The Company is unaware of any related injuries or accidents. Affected are certain model-year 2009-2016 Dodge Journey vehicles. An estimated 187,436 vehicles in Canada are also subject to this recall. Replacement parts are expected to become available soon. Affected customers will be notified accordingly. FCA US urges customers to follow the instructions on all recall notices. Customers with questions may call the FCA US Customer Care Center at 1-800-853-1403.
