Up for Auction a very nice 1946 Dodge Power Wagon!!


This truck has a rebuilt flathead engine that runs excellent! Runs, Idles, and accelerates beautifully! Always Cranks up right away! 

The transmission is non-synchronized four speed with a Granny low first gear. It shifts very smooth and all the gears operate exactly as they should. 

This truck has an entire new braking system! New Master Cylinder! New inner and outer flex hoses! All new Pre-bent Steel Brake Lines! New Wheel Cylinders! New Brake Shoes!! Everything is new!! 

The Hub/Drum assembly has been machine turned and has all new Right Sided Wheel Studs eliminating the original left sided reverse thread studs!

All four axel backplates including the rear axel housing were replaced because the brake cams were stripped out and the brake shoes clips were broke off preventing to brakes from working properly. The replacements are in terrific condition and now work properly.

All of the outer oil seals of the front axel have been replaced and has new brass bushings pressed in on both the axel and spindle side. The axel shafts are nice and snug like they should be!

The Rear axel has new inner and outer seals and gaskets.

All of the wheel bearings have been repacked with new axel grease and have new hub seals!

The front axel has brand new AVM Locking hubs! Very high quality and better mileage than the original setup, fastened with stainless steel nuts. Looks very nice!!

The tires are in pretty good condition overall the three of them have some cracking the tires but aren't in terrible shape!

All of the fluids have been changed in the Engine, Transmission, Transfer Case, and Both Front and Rear Axels.

Most of the electrical components work but could use some work to pass state inspection primarily the blinkers. The winning bidder will have an option to purchase a new 6 volt wiring harness from me built by Vintage Wiring of Maine for an additional $695 dollars. (I paid over a thousand for it) They are well worth the money!

The prior owner replaced the doors with blue ones because they were in better shape, I asked him and he no longer has the originals! But these are in terrific shape with next to no rust!

This truck is one of the most rust free unrestored trucks ive ever seen. Nowhere on the truck can i find any cancerous rust or rotted areas. Even between the bed and the cab is in good shape. 

The bed rails do have some bends in them. The front drivers side in particular. Overall the bed is in good shape. 

This truck still has the original wood underneath a piece of sheet metal bolted in the bed.

The running boards are in fair condition, the driver side is strait. The Passenger side has some dents which is pretty common for these trucks. All of the wood underneath is in good shape.

The front passenger fender is bent and dips down in the front. Also the front grill has some dents and bends in it.

The glass is in fair condition. The drivers side window has some cracks in it and the windshield has some cracks in it! The passenger side and rear have no cracks and are in excellent shape.

As far as the inside goes the upholstery on the seat is in pretty good condition. 
 
The floorboards are in great shape with zero cancerous rust!

The transfer case levers work well and shift smoothly.

The gauges are pretty faded and could use restoration or replacement. I believe they all work, they move when the truck cranks up.

Truck probably needs vacuum wiper motors rebuilt or replaced with electric motors.

This truck has a fuel tank that appears to be home made but very similar to the original! I was impressed! Ive never used it out of concern for dirty fuel getting in the engine. Ive alway used a boat can as a fuel source (comes with the truck)

The winch works very well and has fairly new cable on it. 

Overall this is a great truck! the First year of the Dodge Power Wagon and sure to appreciate in value over the coming years! Mechanically it runs like a dream!!  Please feel free to ask me any questions! The Truck is located In Midland, Texas. Feel free to come look at the truck in person before bidding! I reserve the right to end the auction anytime up until the completion of the sale.

Car dealership in East Texas destroyed by tornado

Tue, May 2 2017

Few things are as fundamentally and unconditionally destructive as a tornado. These cataclysmic phenomena pass through towns, leaving nothing in their wake but ruin and despair. According to an NBC affiliate in the Dallas-Fort Worth region, a car dealership in nearby Canton was hit by a tornado Saturday night. No employees were hurt. Four other people in the area weren't so lucky. Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Canton's new showroom and service center were pounded by the storm, leaving dozens of cars in various states of ruin. Some merely lost windows, while others were flipped and left on their sides or roofs. Photos show piles of cars stacked up like Hot Wheels dumped on the ground. According to a statement from the National Weather Service, winds reached speeds of up to 140 mph. Two other tornadoes were reported in the region. The area has been declared a disaster zone and first responders from up to 100 miles away have swarmed in to help out those in need. According to Reuters, the storms Saturday killed 11 people nationwide.

Watch Jay Leno drive an ex-highway patrol '61 Dodge Polara

Tue, May 17 2016

The latest vehicle to swing by Jay Leno's Garage is a 1961 Dodge Polara. This one was used by the California Highway Patrol half a century ago, ordered specially by the state police instead of the Darts that were usually used by law-enforcement. After sitting out in the sun for a few decades, it recently underwent a comprehensive, ground-up restoration by the historians and craftsmen at the Automobile Club of Southern California. As you can see for yourself, the result of the restoration is really quite stunning. The ACSC apparently spared no expense, bringing the 413-cubic-inch V8 back up to working order, along with the emergency lighting, radio, certified speedometer... the works. In the process they even found the engine cranked out more than the factory quote of 325 horsepower, recording 332 hp and 406 pound-feet of torque on the dyno. The Polara CHP cruiser hadn't even been back out on the freeway since the restoration was finished. But after getting the full run-down from the guys responsible for its resuscitation, Jay wasted little time in bringing it back to its natural habitat.

2014 Dodge Durango priced from $29,795*

Wed, 14 Aug 2013

With all the new updates the Dodge Durango is getting for 2014, one thing that Dodge isn't changing on its big SUV is the starting price. Just like the current model year, the 2014 Dodge Durango will be priced from $29,795 (*not including $995 for destination).
This price is for the base SXT model, but the 2014 Durango is also offered in a new Limited trim level (replacing the Crew) as well as the sporty R/T and the luxurious Citadel. The Durango Limited starts at $35,995 (an increase of $800 over the 2013 Crew), while the R/T now starts at $38,995 (up $2,500). The top-of-the-line Durango Citadel will start at $40,995 - an increase of $1,000.
The many improvements made to the 2014 Durango include revised exterior styling, added in-cabin tech and an eight-speed automatic transmission (expected to return better fuel economy). Dodge is saying that the V6 models will get 25 miles per gallon on the highway while V8 models are expected to score 23-mpg highway, but there are no official EPA numbers to report yet.
