Sweptside, D100, 315, Dodge, Power Wagon, D 500, Hemi,custom on 2040-cars
Los Angeles, California, United States
Up for sale is one Very rare Dodge D100 Sweptside pick up truck. I am selling this truck for my friend who I have sold 40 other cars for. She is the Widow of a collector and found herself with a vast array of old cars when her Husband passed. This is the last one and by far one of the rarest. This truck was custom built at the factory by the Dodge Special Equipment group(SEG). These were hand crafted trucks built to compete with the Chevy Cameo. SEG took 1957 Dodge station wagon fenders from the assembly line and custom built the beds, tailgate, bumpers and body trim. Making only 180 of these in 1957, approximately 75 remain in the world. This truck was restored 90% about 7 or 8 years ago. I don't think it has been driven much since the restoration. The gas was going bad in it when i got it. I drained and cleaned the tank, had the carb rebuilt, flushed the lines etc, gave it a tune up and it runs and drives great. I also had the power steering pump rebuilt, it works decent but there might still be some work needed in the system. Classic Pushbutton 3 speed transmission works and shifts very well. I feel like overall the truck needs a once over just to make sure any bolts and such weren't left loose. Things like the horn and radio need to be hooked up, etc. I noticed the rubber bushings on the rear leaf spring shackles need to be replaced. But like i said it drives surprisingly well for a old 50's truck. Visibility is really good with the wrap around windows, you can see everything. Oh and you will be seen too. This truck attracts a lot of attention wherever it goes. I've had housewives yell at me going down the road " Nice truck Mister!". I took it to Bob's Big boy here in California and guys hadn't seen one of these trucks in 30+ years. Did I say Rare?
Anyhow here are the goods the bads and the unknowns: GOOD: Have clear california title Pretty Decent paint job, Looks good from 5'. Is actually pretty good shape. I think it was mostly covered since it was painted, However i did find a few drips in the interior paint and some chips where the hood rubbed on the body. Chrome and Stainless are in great shape, either they were re-plated or are still in very good original shape. Drive train: Engine runs well and strong, I don't know if it was rebuilt, but it doesn't smoke and has new freeze plugs and paint. One might assume that it was rebuilt. I have not done a compression test. Transmission: Drives and shifts well. E brake on drive shaft works. Rear end: seems fine Brakes are good All glass is good New interior and upholstery BAD and UNKNOWN: Depth of restoration unknown Found a rust hole in inside rear fender left side and a repair right side, not sure if exterior fender had a repair/hole. Front fenders, floors, and frame look fine. Feel free to contact me with any questions or if you are in the area, your are welcome to come take a look at the vehicle. You won't be let down, she's a beauty. |

eBay Find of the Day: 1994 Dodge Viper RT/10 with 504 miles
Tue, 26 Nov 2013It's typically hard to find early examples of the Dodge Viper that haven't been crashed or modified, but one eBay seller has a showroom-fresh version of the V10 roadster up for sale worthy of an eBay Find of the Day.
With just 504 miles on the odometer (according to the description and not the images) and "no defects at all," this 1994 Viper is a rare find indeed. Tack on the Buy It Now price of just $37,500 and it seems like a steal - especially when checking out the prices and conditions of other early Vipers currently listed on eBay.
Even after spending months ogling the all-new 2014 SRT Viper, it's hard to ignore the raw beauty of the original open-top model. From the three-spoke wheels to the calf-searing side pipes, everything about this Viper looks just the way it did when it rolled off the line almost 20 years ago. The seller even says that the top and windows have never been installed meaning there are no scratches anywhere on this car!
Stellantis will enter joint venture with Samsung SDI for EV batteries
Tue, Oct 19 2021SEOUL — South Korean battery maker Samsung SDI Co Ltd and global automaker Stellantis NV have agreed to jointly produce electric vehicle (EV) batteries for the North American market, a person familiar with the matter said on Tuesday. Samsung SDI, an affiliate of South Korean tech giant Samsung Electronics, already has EV battery plants in South Korea, China and Hungary, which supply customers such as BMW and Ford. "The two companies (Samsung SDI and Stellantis) have struck a MOU (memorandum of understanding) to produce EV batteries for North America," the person with knowledge of the matter told Reuters. The source spoke of condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the matter. The person said the location of the battery joint venture is under review and will be announced later. In July, Reuters reported that Samsung SDI may build a battery plant in the United States, citing a company source. South Korea's Yonhap news agency earlier reported the two companies plan to build a factory in the United States, citing industry sources. Samsung SDI and Stellantis did not have immediate comment when reached by Reuters. Stellantis on Monday struck a preliminary deal with battery maker South Korea's LG Energy Solution (LGES) to produce battery cells and modules for North America. Shares of Samsung SDI were up 2.6% as of 0300 GMT, versus a 0.6% rise in the KOSPI benchmark index.
