UPDATE: 07/03/2013 *Uploaded 6 more pics of the rust areas on the roof drip rail and radiator core support*

BODY: Very solid fenders, hood, cab, doors, and bed, no rust on an of these areas. It will need left inner fender well and radiator support replaced, (typical rust areas on these D Series Dodges) It also appears to have three nickel sized rust spots around the windshield gasket. The truck frame and rocker rails are solid and straight. Bed and the tailgate and fenders are rust free and dent free. It has been repainted from its original Metallic Root Beer Brown to a color similar to Petty Blue color. It looks like it was a very inexpensive "mask tape" and spray job. Needs a good buff because it has sat in the Texas sun and has begun to fade on some of the roof and hood. Other than this it has small crease on the left front fender and few dings here and there but solid nonetheless.

MOTOR: I was told by previous owner the motor was rebuilt less than 3 years ago. he then proceeded to work on it little by little and never drove it other than up and down his street. Replaced the old Carter carb with a Brand new Thermoquad 4bbl. I have personally checked compression on all cylinders and it is tight all around. Cranks and Fires right up with no hesitation, no lifter noise, no knock. Its 318 motor; not the original engine. The truck was originally equipped with a Slant six motor. I have also installed new plugs, wires, cap, rotor, mechanical fuel pump. Also comes with additional eletric fuel pump installed but not connected.

TRANSMISSION: I have also replaced the tranny pan gasket and flushed the transmission. It appears to be T-Flite 727. The truck is NOT driveable. Shifts into reverse but, does not go forward... I ran out of money and cant replace it.

I believe this is great project truck, not common to find.... but the arrival of our baby, the lack of money has led me to sell it, and my lack of space prevents me from continuing to get it driveable. Please email me with any questions as I have described it to the best of my ability.

Does the future of Fiat-Chrysler include Dodge?

Thu, 13 Jun 2013

Wards Auto reports the future of Dodge is looking uncertain. Fiat has more or less laid out it's game plan for the next few years, and while the Chrysler, Fiat and Jeep lines are set to receive plenty of love, Dodge isn't so lucky. Fiat has already hobbled Dodge significantly by splitting off the brand's trucks into a separate Ram line.
Wards says that after the Avenger rides off into the sunset early next year, Fiat-Chrysler won't replace the model, leaving a gaping midsize hole in the Dodge lineup. The report also cites unnamed sources as saying that at least two other current Dodge products will move to the Chrysler line.
One of those could very well be the Grand Caravan. Chrysler has already made it clear that it plans to trim redundancy between its minivan offerings, but it has yet to clarify which other vehicle could sail under the Chrysler banner moving forward. Either way, such changes to the product line would theoretically leave Dodge with just four models.

Dodge idles Viper production again at Conner Avenue

Mon, 07 Jul 2014

You've got to hand it to Dodge for having the gumption to put the original Viper into production in the first place. It was, after all, much more of an emotional decision than a practical one, and a move which saw the first production V10 engine placed in a road car - long before the advent of the Lamborghini Gallardo, Audi R8, Porsche Carrera GT or Lexus LFA, not to mention the other Ford, BMW and Volkswagen Group models that used such engines.
It's now been 22 years since the first Viper entered production and the Viper still rolls on several generations later, but we're sad to say that courageous decision has not always been met with overwhelming sales success. In fact parent Chrysler was forced to idle the Conner Avenue plant where the Viper is made back in April due to slow sales. And while production resumed again as planned on June 23, it apparently didn't do the trick.
As a result, Chrysler corporate communications chief Shawn Morgan revealed to Autoblog that the assembly line has been shut down again for another two weeks. The line was up and running for nearly two full work weeks from June 23 until the holiday weekend that started on Thursday, July 3. But instead of coming back online today as planned, it's been idled again for the weeks of July 7 and 14. That means it will be July 21, at the earliest, before the serpentine supercars start slithering down the assembly line at Conner Avenue again. Once it does, however, production is set to resume at the same pace it was before the shutdown.

Are you the Dodge Dart SRT4?

Tue, 08 Jan 2013

Dodge has just confirmed that it will be bringing its newest Dart variant, the Dart GT, to Detroit next week, but we're still in the dark about when we'll see a truly hotted-up SRT4 version. But now, by way of the rumormill anyway, we've got at least one proposed, potentially Dodge-based rendering to light our way.
Seen here is what would appear to be a design sketch of the SRT4 Dart. Obviously the image that has surfaced is of rather low-resolution, but there's at least some evidence to support that it may be legitimate. In the original picture, one can just make out the name Tim Doyle in the lower right corner. As it turns out, Tim Doyle's name is also watermarked on the final design image for the 2011 Dodge Durango Citadel Black & Tan, a model that was shown at SEMA in 2010.
Of course, even if this really is the work of Doyle, there's nothing to say that this image isn't one of a great many potential looks for the future SRT4. In fact, the departure of the cross-hair grille from the Dodge's nose seems like it could be a hard sell, though we do, naturally, dig the sleek hood scoop and the bulked up wheel/tire combination.
