Sadly it is time to let go of this one of a kind truck. This is a 1985 Dodge d-350 that I built and restored for my late wife but sadly she passed away before I could finish it. I have completely finished the pickup now but I am getting remarried and it is time to let go of the past to start a new chapter in my life.Enough about that though. Lets get to the goodies!This pickup started out life in 1985 with a 360ci v8 gas engine and a torqueflight 727 3speed automatic with a dana 70 rear end and 4:10 gears. I purchased the pickup nearly 2 years ago and installed a 12 valve Cummins diesel, a Allison 1000 6speed automatic transmission ( yes the very same transmission used in current production Chevy and GMC pickups with Duramax engines), a Dana 80 limited slip rear end with 4:10 gears ( engine runs 1884 rpm at 70 mph), and new tires. The pickup has perfectly functioning OE cruise control, Ice cold A/C, AM/FM, CD, cassette player from later model dodge and an Isimple Iphone connection that charges your phone while you listen to it through the radio. This pickup is a real head turner and I get compliments everywhere I go but you can judge that for yourself from the pictures. I have put 10,000 miles on the pickup since I finished it so it does have a rock chip in the paint here and there but nothing abnormal. The one big flaw is a crack in armrest pad on the left rear door panel ( I just have not found a replacement yet and have not been willing to pay to have the original vacuum formed with new vinyl).The engine is all stock with new injectors and it runs beautifully, has no blowby, and starts right up every time just like you would expect a Cummins to do.If you have any questions please feel free to contact me via ebay messaging or call Jon at (903) 477-4508. Please no calls after 9pm central time.Please feel free to contact me about delivery or shipping. I can drive to DFW airport to pick you up if I can bend my schedule around the arrival time, or I might be able to help with shipping. I have the pickup listed locally and reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Thanks!!! and Good luck!

FCA plants skipping summer shutdown to keep up with demand

Thu, May 14 2015

Hopefully, some FCA US factory employees don't have big plans for the usual summer shutdown, because the automaker is keeping several plants running this year. Demand is so high that the company wants to keep models rolling off the assembly lines. Four FCA US assembly plants, all the engine factories, and some locations that build transmissions are staying open throughout the summer, according to the Detroit Free Press. Usually, these sites would see a two-week shutdown for the company to retool and perform repairs. This year, factories are staying open for FCA to support its strong sales. The lines that remaining humming through the summer show an inclination toward the automaker's popular SUV's and crossovers. They include the Jefferson North Assembly Plant in Michigan that builds the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango; Saltillo Van Assembly in Mexico that constructs the Ram ProMaster; Toledo Assembly Complex in Ohio that produces the Cherokee and Wrangler; and Toluca Assembly in Mexico that makes the Dodge Journey and Fiat 500.

Chrysler investigating complaints of vehicles with faulty power modules

Sun, 24 Aug 2014

Chrysler owners are hopping mad after experiencing a series of electrical gremlins in some of the company's vehicles. Issues range from mere annoyances - windows rolling down and radios turning off of their own accord - to serious safety issues, with headlights that randomly shut off at night and cars that stall and refuse to start.
The issues are being blamed on the total integrated power module, which can cost up to $1,000 for customers to replace. This, of course, has led to a hefty batch of complaints to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, with 240 owners expressing their displeasure so far. Another site, CarComplaints.com, has registered over 300 complaints relating to the 2010 to 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango, alone, according to The New York Times.
Chrysler has acknowledged that it's investigating the complaints and is analyzing the faulty TIPMs, but that isn't quite enough for customers of the affected vehicles. The newspaper has snagged a few of the more harrowing tales with the electrically challenged Chrysler products, culled from the NHTSA complaints.
