Minden, Nevada, United States
|
This truck is being sold AS IS and must be picked up in Minden, Nevada within 30 days of auction end. It runs and yard drives, but has not been on the road in many years and will need to be trailered. Please ask questions before bidding if I have left something out of my description. It needs total restoration of all components and is missing whatever is not shown. In the late 70s they sold a lot of Dodge's Adult Toys including this all black Warlock Power Wagon 4 speed. I purchased from the original owner (still in Reno) a few years ago. It had been neglected and parked since the 90s. With a battery, fresh gas, and a fuel pump and filter, it fired right up. It is a 318 with a factory 4 speed, and 9.25 rear with Sure Grip and 3.55 gears. It still retained an original Carburetor, alternator, radiator, (fuel pump) and some of the hoses including the bypass. A very original engine compartment. I also changed the oil prior to starting. It runs and drives, but should be completely gone thru before driving on the road. It needs and deserves a total restoration, Including the engine, which has low oil pressure, and a small coolant leak at the timing cover but no unusual noises. Miles are unknown, it shows 12K and is at least 112. The original owner did not have any additional info or documentation. The body has a lot of dents. See pictures, and note the damage to the tailgate, driver's side cab, door, fenders, bumpers, chrome step grill etc. It still has it's original cert label showing a very late build of July 1978 and door vin tag. This is one of the last of the 78 Warlocks. Also note the placement of the Power Wagon hood emblems. Pushed back, and typical of the Late 78 utilines. You are looking at all original paint/stripes and the gold primer coming thru. The interior still has it's original black buckets, Tuff Wheel w/ 4x4 only adapter, and even original carpet, (cut to expose floors). The cab is as solid as they come with nothing but original black paint in the floor pans. The windshield and passenger side glass are damaged, originally factory tint. The truck still has it's four original 15/8 chrome slot wheels (same as lil red) and the original plastic center caps. It is missing the spare and the wood racks.. The frame is dry and straight with only the usual surface rust (even in the desert). The bed wood and strips are gone, replaced by plywood. The tires are ancient but hold air. If your looking for a Rare Power Wagon to restore, this is your truck. Clear Nevada title in my name and can be exported. It is sold AS IS where is, Minden Nevada 89423.

2015 Dodge Challenger gets 6.4L 485-HP V8 Scat Pack
Thu, 17 Apr 2014While it's not seeing the drastic facelift of its brother, the Charger, at the 2014 New York Auto Show, the 2015 Challenger is packing some upgrades of its own. It wears even more retro-inspired styling cues, and there are new 6.4-liter Scat Pack and Shaker trims.
If you thought the Challenger looked retro before, Dodge is taking things even farther with inspiration for the refresh coming from the iconic 1971 model. Up front, it has a new split grille, a larger power bulge in the hood and projector fog lights. At the rear, the classic inspiration continues with split LED taillights with Gloss Black trim, and a rear valance panel redesigned to make the 2015 model look wider and lower.
The '71 motif is carried inside as well with a high-sill center console and aluminum gauge bezels. There's still more than a touch of modernity, with an available 8.4-inch Uconnect infotainment system and 7-inch customizable display between the retro-inspired speedometer and tachometer. For better safety, the Challenger is also now available with forward collision warning, adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring and rear cross path detection. Stability control and electric power steering are standard across all models too.
2015 Dodge Charger priced from $27,995, Hellcat from $63,995*
Sun, 19 Oct 2014Ladies and gentlemen, let's get the most salient bit of information out of the way right off the bat: $63,995*. That's the amount of money Dodge dealers will be asking for (at the very least, naturally) for a 2015 Charger Hellcat (*plus $995 for destination on all pricing figures). That rather reasonable sum will bring home its buyer a 6.2-liter Hemi V8 engine boasting a supercharger to post such gaudy figures as 707 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque, leading to a top speed of 204 miles per hour to go along with an NHRA-certified quarter-mile time of 11.0 seconds.
With that out of the way, the rest of the 2015 Dodge Charger pricing information breaks down as follows: $27,995 will deliver a sedan with a 292-horsepower 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 engine, mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Moving up one step of the ladder nets the buyer an SXT model with the same engine, but a nicer chunk of technology and optional equipment for a $2,000 premium. All-wheel drive adds another $3,000. Hemi V8-powered R/T models now boast an eight-speed transmission bolted to the same well-loved 370-horsepower engine as before, for a base price of $32,995.
The SRT 392 model that had hitherto been the top-performing Charger brings with it an asking price of $47,385 while bargain hunters can equip a Charger R/T Scat Pack machine with that same 485-horsepower 6.4-liter Hemi, albeit with somewhat less posh interior bits and pieces, the removal of the 392's adjustable suspension and hi-po wheel and tire package for $39,995.
Marchionne may stay with FCA until 2020
Mon, Aug 31 2015We might get to see Sergio Marchionne and his vast array of sweaters in the auto industry for even longer than expected. The FCA CEO suggested last year that he would retire from the automaker when its current five-year plan was complete in 2018. Now, he has tentatively extended that point out to at least 2020. "I can do this for another five years if you push me, right? Beyond that, I ain't gonna do it, and I don't want to," he said to Automotive News. That would give Marchionne a 16-year career at the top from joining Fiat in 2004 to possibly leaving FCA in 2020. Although, take the CEO's statement with a grain of salt because he has made multiple statements about the timing for his retirement. In 2012, Marchionne said he would only remain in charge until 2015, which is, well, now. Those five years might also go quite quickly because Marchionne is a busy guy with the Ferrari IPO, the attempted merger with General Motors, implementing FCA's five-year plan, and many other projects. He's already considering the next CEO, though. "My purpose in life is to find the Kuniskises of the world, the Manleys, the Biglands, the Palmers," Marchionne said to Automotive News, referencing the heads at Dodge, Jeep, FCA North America, and the company's chief financial officer, respectively. "I told them, 'One of you is going to do what I do one day. I don't know who that is, but one of you is going to do it.'"
