1983 Dodge Prospector Crew Cab Short Bed 4x4 Cummins Turbo Diesel!!! on 2040-cars
Henderson, Nevada, United States
Hello Everyone,
Up for sale is a rare factory 1983 Dodge CREW CAB 4x4 short bed with a Cummins motor conversion. The truck has been a west coast truck for its entire life so it is rust free! This truck started life back in 1983 with a gas motor. i sought this truck out for it to become what you see today. This has been my pride and joy for the last 10 years. I have spent many hours getting it to this awesome condition. I started with a Cummins motor out of 1992 Dodge Ram that had approximately 120,000 miles on it (Just barley broken in for these awesome motors) I used the motor, core support and inter cooler from the 1992 and I installed a new radiator. Nothing was cut to install this motor in to this truck. The motor does have some upgrades including 3200 governor spring, fuel pump turned up, HX35 turbo and a custom air intake. The motor was mated with an automatic torque flight 518 with over drive which was rebuilt at time of install. The transmission has a shift kit and a deep pan. The Transfer case is a divorced 205 (very desirable t-case) Axles are Dana 60's front and rear with 4:10 gears The truck is sitting on 20 inch black alloy wheels wrapped in Good Year Wranglers E rated 275/65/r20 The truck has been recently painted inside and out. It was originally white and red and received a full color change to a bright beautiful red! There was no major body work done on this truck. A few emblems were taken off and the holes welded and filled in but this truck is SOLID under the pretty paint. The Interior was in pretty good shape and the seats are original but I did replace the carpet. The front doors have factory power windows and the back is manual just how it came from the factory. The weather stripping was replaced around all 4 doors and the window stripping. The interior accessories include a Kenwood cd player , Pyrometer and boost gauge! The truck is equipped with a goose neck hitch as well as a reciever hitch on the back. Perfect for towing a boat or hotrods. maybe some more Cummins trucks :) This truck does run and drive really well!! This truck is a rare and is definitely a head turner. You will get at least one person a week asking about it (at least I do) It does need some finishing touches to make it 100% perfect. The Ac has a small leak and it has to be recharged. The cruise control will need to be hooked up if you so desire. The potential of this truck is almost limitless. The Cummins motor is unstoppable. This truck will get 20 mpg if you are nice to it. Additional Info This truck is listed locally and I have the right to end the auction at any time, I am open to all offers and will return any emails OCONNELLRB@YAHOO.COM buyer pays all shipping fees and I will help the buyer or transport load the truck up. If you would like additional pictures i can email them to you. I am not desperate to sell so please no low baller emails. I can deliver for a fee if you live with in a few hundred miles of Las Vegas, NV. Location will determine price if you would like me to deliver. No warranty on the truck. All sales final. No checks accepted! Will only accept bank wire transfer, good Money Order or CASH. Truck will not ship until all funds are cleared through my bank and in my hand.

Jay Leno's 426-powered 1966 Dodge Coronet 500 is simple and simply fun
Wed, Dec 21 2016This week on Jay Leno's Garage, the man in denim presents one of his most subdued-looking cars, a 1966 Dodge Coronet 500. Despite that, it's one of his favorites. As he shows, the car is nearly free of any unnecessary options, excepting bucket seats and a console shifter. At least those are the only visible options, since the original owner also opted for the massive 426 cu. in. Hemi V8. What Leno really likes about the car is the honking huge V8 combined with the car's simplicity, especially the lack of frivolities like scoops, stripes, and wings. It's finished in a low-key, dark metallic green, and has plain-Jane "dog dish" wheel covers. The one downside to the vehicle is the lack of stopping and turning ability, Leno says, which is not surprising considering the four-wheel drum brakes and lack of power assist. And keep in mind, the Coronet is not a small car. Still, it's a mean green machine, and it sounds great. Leno also demonstrates the engine's capability to chirp the tires going into second gear, despite having a three-speed automatic and a relatively tall 3.23 rear axle gear ratio. Check out the video above to get the whole story and to hear rumbling V8 noises. Related Video:
Fiat Chrysler's next-generation Uconnect is faster, built on Android
Mon, Jan 27 2020If you're a regular reader of Autoblog, you know that for a long time we've liked Fiat Chrysler's Uconnect infotainment system for its bright, clear, responsive touchscreen interface. Now, according to the company, it will be better than ever with Uconnect 5, the latest iteration of the system. It has upgraded hardware and a revamped graphic user interface (the stuff on the screen). Looking at sample screens shown above, there are characteristics shared with the old system, such as the time, status and shortcuts at the top and the menu icons at the bottom. In the middle, the major change is the addition of home screens that can be customized with favorite menus and readouts that are always available. Each of these home screens can have up to four functions and you can have five pages to flip through. The graphics themselves feature more legible fonts and updated icons. Each car brand will get its own set of icons, colors and textures to help create unique experiences. And while each Fiat Chrysler product will be able to have Uconnect, including Alfa Romeo that has until now lacked Uconnect, each brand has the ability to make small tweaks including the screen orientation. The system will support displays in landscape, portrait or square, so different brands may choose different shapes. Powering Uconnect 5 is a processor Fiat Chrysler says is six times more powerful than what's in current systems. It features 6 gigabytes of RAM and 64 gigabytes of internal storage. The processor also supports screens as large as 12.3 inches with as many as 15 million pixels, or nearly twice that of a 4K resolution TV. The system can display information on up to four screens, too. Uconnect 5's firmware is built on Google's Android operating system, joining a few other automakers in using Android as a base for their infotainment systems. Uconnect 5 brings with it a number of new features. It brings full Alexa integration, so you can use it just like you do at home, provided you have a data plan for the car. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto continue to be standard, but now they can be used wirelessly. You can also now connect two phones via Bluetooth wirelessly so you can access content from both. Navigation gets real time information and updates from TomTom. Users can create five profiles with unique climate, radio and instrument settings, plus one for a valet.
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles: The next five years
Tue, 06 May 2014Unless you've been living under a rock for the past 24 hours, you've no doubt read about all of the big future product news coming out of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles today. We had individual brand reports from Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram, Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Maserati and even Ferrari, but in the interest of simplifying and summarizing, we're going to list out the hard facts once more. Of course, with all of this still off in the future, there's still the possibility that a few changes will be made. But as of what we know right now, here's what's coming, and what's going away.
