It really hurts to sell this, but being in Wisconsin it just isnt practical and I hate to see it just sit all winter long. I purchased this from a farm owner deep in the heart of Wisconsin farm country. Heres the information the owner before me informed me of : Odometer is currently a little over 31k miles. He told me this is original but I honestly cannot confirm it, but I believe it to be the truth so please read on.This is the info I have. The title shows 45362 miles, and heres what I found by paying for a report from vehiclehistoryrecord.com. Title last updated before him in 1990.Then a duplicate purchased in 1996. The registration was renewed every so often after that. According to this gentleman, when it was renewed in 1990, the mileage was actually 25,362 and the DMV mis-wrote it as 45,362. And between then (1990) and when I got it earlier this year, they guessed that they might have put 4 or 5 thousand miles on it (hence the 31k now showing).These were straight forward, good old fasioned nice people in their 50's. The only used the truck for light farm work, hauling this or that when needed. I picked it up in person, and there was REALLY nowhere they needed to go with this truck and had many modern vehicles they could have used (they were WAY out in the boonies). I have no reason to think they were lying to me. He signed a statement for me, claiming the odometer statement on the title is incorrect, and I shall include that with this truck. With that said, heres the truck description. Interior just amazing. No dash cracks, some light fading on the top door plastic skins. One very small rip on the drivers side seat from getting in and out, otherwise seat is just amazing. Inside door pieces, etc, nice and rust free. Interior all original except they put a cd player in it (which works, and has a remote). Body and paint is beautiful. There is one dent on the rear right box, about 10 inches high, and should be an easy pullout. Some rust on rear bumper, front is nice as well as rest of chrome. There is a rust spot under the front fender well as shown. You dont see ANY rust on the actual viewable truck body. Just some paint road chips as shown on the lower rockers. Engine area very nice, no rust/rot/etc. Very clean engine. Underneath has some light rust spots, but extremely solid. Its gonna need brake work. They work, but I wouldnt do big hills or towing with them right now. I just got an estimate from the local shop, they figure around $300 to completely re-do the brakes including lines. Exhaust has a slight leak at the donut connection (what old 225 based Mopar doesnt!?). Tires are a bit weather checked, heck a couple might even be original. BEAUTIFUL original hubcaps. I spent 8 hours building those bed rails, hope ya like them :) Ive been driving this all summer. No starting/running issues. Fires right off, runs beautiful. Everything works except fuel guage (probably a rusty wire), temp guage (looks like its disconnected under the hood), and left brake light which is just a ground wire. Had it fixed once, they did a shitty job and the wire broke back off just recently. This is an all around beautiful survivor truck. I just cannot believe Im listing it, but family needs come first and we need a newer vehicle. Please keep in mind, its a 1985 not a 2013. Theres just enough little things to make sure you have an excuse to tell the ole' lady your gonna be wrenchin in the shop for a while. Please email with any questions. Payment due within 7 days. Pickup/shipping arrangements completely up to the buyer. I can hold it for a week or two. But it needs to be paid for. I prefer money order for final payment, or cash if your coming to get in person within the 7 days. Or if you prefer paypal contact me first. $200 deposit is not refundable under any circumstances. Thanks for looking, and have a great week ! Powered by eBay Turbo Lister The free listing tool. List your items fast and easy and manage your active items. |

Cars.com runs 11-second quarter with Dodge Charger Hellcat
Mon, Jun 1 2015The Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat and its Challenger sibling are two of the heroes of the modern performance world. With a headline-grabbing 707 horsepower from a supercharged 6.2-liter V8, their output even shames many supercars. But how quick can one really cover a quarter mile? Cars.com recently decided to find out by taking a Charger Hellcat to the drag strip to see if the sedan lived up to Dodge's 11-second claims. The results were quite impressive. After 13 quarter-mile runs of adjusting variables like the tire pressures and the car's various electronic aids, the Charger Hellcat managed a pass in 11.03 seconds at 126.61 mph – the pinnacle result of the day. This car was mechanically stock and wore the optional Pirelli P Zero tires. According to Cars.com, other quick sprints reached 11.09 seconds and 11.1 seconds, which even beat the site's 11.41-second best from a Challenger Hellcat last year. Getting the Hellcat's prodigious power down without losing traction was a challenge, even on the summer tires. Cars.com thought it had a run that could have dropped below 11 seconds, but then the wheels spun. Using the factory-recommended pressures, the Charger Hellcat was no still slouch with an 11.27-second time recorded, but taking things down to 25 psi proved the quickest at the strip. We already knew that the Charger Hellcat was a wonderful vehicle for eating up huge gulps of asphalt at high speeds and could verify its 204-mile-per-hour top speed (quite a bit faster, incidentally, than the Ferrari California T's 196 mph top-speed). Apparently, the 11-second quarter-mile claim is just as accurate. Also, for any curious owners, the Cars.com story divulges many of the tweaks required to reach this seriously quick time.

Lackluster Dodge Dart sales trigger layoffs
Thu, 06 Mar 2014Hidden amidst the overall very positive sales figures that Chrysler released earlier this week were a few disappointments, the biggest of which may be the Dodge Dart. While Dodge sales in general were down 11 percent from a year ago, the Dart's poor figures stood out from the rest - with 4,888 units sold, the Dart was down 37 percent in February.
It comes as little surprise, then, that the automaker has announced layoffs at its assembly plant in Belvidere, IL. According to The Daily Herald, Dodge will temporarily lay off 325 workers "to balance vehicle supply with current sales demand." Put more simply, there are more Darts than buyers at the moment...
We don't think the Dodge Dart is a bad car, but it's playing in a market that offers a few standout sellers, like the Chevy Cruze, Ford Focus, Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla. According to AutoPacific analyst Dave Sullivan, as quoted by The Daily Herald, "great incentives on the Dodge Avenger" are also partly to blame for the Dart's poor showing.
Jay Leno's Dodge Challenger raises $585k for USO in Scottsdale
Mon, Jan 19 2015Of all the metal moved in Scottsdale, AZ, this holiday weekend, the one you see here was hardly the most expensive. But it's noteworthy for another reason: despite being a relatively humble, second-hand 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8, raised an impressive $565,625. That's because, first of all, it belonged to Jay Leno, and secondly because the proceeds were going to the USO. Leno donated the modern muscle car from his collection to benefit our men and women in uniform, and was on hand to present the car on stage at the Gooding & Company auction, along with USO president J.D. Crouch II and former Army chief of staff General George W. Casey, Jr. After frenzied and patriotic bidding, the gavel ultimately dropped at $360,000, accompanied by over $200,000 in additional contributions, bringing the total amount donated to the USO to over half a million. Commendable though it was, of course the Challenger didn't garner the highest bids at the auction. A 1959 Ferrari 250 GT LWB California Spider sold for $7.7 million and a 1968 Ferrari 330 GTS fetched $2.4 million. A rare 1962 Ferrari 400 Superamerica Series I Coupe Aerodinamico sold for over $4,070,000 – which, according to Sports Car Market, is the most ever paid at auction for a 400 Superamerica. And a 1966 Porsche 906 Carrera 6 also sold for a record $1.98 million.
