Hello folks, I’m putting up my 1993 Dodge Ram W350 for sale. First let me say I LOVE this truck. The only reason why I’m selling it is because my knee is giving me issues from past injuries and the clutch pedal isn’t helping me at all, simply put I can’t drive a standard shift truck anymore

    I bought this truck from the original owner about 7 years ago. The gentleman I purchased it from used it for a tow rig for his offshore racing boat.  I have all the original paperwork for the truck including the window sticker, bill of sale and the title which shows 8 miles (never exchanged hands until I purchased it) even the sales brushier which shows THIS TRUCK ON THE COVER. This truck was $32,000 in 1993. There was no expense spared it has every option available at the time(club cab LE, power windows, power mirrors, power locks, cruise, infinity sound,3:55 gear set, 4x4) .

    I looked for a long time to find this truck, these early Cummins Diesel trucks are very hard to find and keep climbing in price. In my opinion this truck here will be a collectable in years to come. Being I intended to keep this rig for ever I decided to put a full frame up restoration into the truck. The entire body came off and I bought the best of the best components.

 Below is the list of work completed about 18 months(15k miles)ago.

·         Full frame was sandblasted and painted in industrial chassis black

·         All new stainless steel brake lines from the master all the way to the wheels

·         Stainless braided brake hoses

·         Completely new rear brake assemblies along with new drums, e-brake cables …EVERYTHING

·         High pressure nitro filled shocks all around

·         Cross drilled rotors with new calipers, HD pads, hardware…

·         Entirely new steering, Tie rods, draglink, king pin bushings and seals, power steering hoses….

·         New spicer U-joints in the entire truck must be 10 of them all together

·         New HD clutch with upgraded ball bearing pilot bushing

·         Completely rebuilt Getrag transmission (close to 3K for this job)

·         All new performance 4” exhaust from the Turbo all the way out

·         Ultra heavy duty battery with upgraded heavy equipment type battery cables

·         New Genuine MOPAR injection pump.(that’s right genuine Mopar,not some ebay junk)  

·         New Genuine Mopar injectors (stock HP)

·          Lift pump, Killer dowl pin safety kit

·         4 new 235/85/16 E-rated tires

·         The list goes on and on ,I kept every receipt and truthfully I don’t want to go through them all, I’ll end up having a breakdown. If I had to estimate I would say I’m into this truck for 25K in parts alone.

I never touched the body on the truck. It looks like the bed and Cab is in original paint, the doors and fenders were repainted at some point in its life.

The ugly:

There is one rust spot on the drivers rocker panel which you can see in the pictures and the driver and passenger floor are very rusty (most likely from wet feet on the carpet over the years). My intention was to put a retro like paint job on the truck in the future, two tone brown metallic or something similar. The truck was originally an automatic so the gear shift on the column is still there. I have a standard shift column that comes with truck if new owner wants to swap it out.

Overall:

Also included in sale is full length aluminum diamond plate running boards (dually specific , wide where wheel flares out)

Leer camper cap with carpeting and camper door (full height door, you remove tailgate and this door hinges up but has a door in the middle for people to get in and out of)

Complete set of 6 custom Rickson 19.5” wheels powder coated desert sand. (no tires)

Will this truck be a collectible? Maybe? One thing for certain is this truck does the same job as the new $60K Cummins Dually rig, if not better I get 16mpg towing  on a regular basis.

 If your looking for a work horse this is it. If your looking Cummins  Diesel this is it. If your looking for a rare first gen Dodge this is it. This truck has it all. If you have any questions please contact at fieldcombs@gmail.com

I will be looking for a automatic truck and will consider swapping for a muscle car or mopar project.

Thanks for looking guys and take care.

Few things I forgot to mention. The truck has had a bed liner in it and a camper cap since day one. There are no dents or rust inside the bed. No goosenecks or fifth wheels ever but it does have a new 12K receiver and flat 7-pin with brake controller. A nice accessory I put in the truck is I have 2/0 battery cable running to the receiver and a quick connector for powering heavy amperage loads, works great for jumper cables or trailer winches and other accessories.

Fiat Chrysler to get $105M fine from NHTSA for recall woes

Sun, Jul 26 2015

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is about to send a powerful message to automakers doing business in the United States, assuming reports of an upcoming $105 million fine against Fiat Chrysler Automobiles comes to fruition. In addition to the record-setting monetary fine, according to The Wall Street Journal, FCA will have to accept an independent auditor that will monitor the company's recall and safety processes and will be forced to buy back certain recalled vehicles. In other cases, such as with Jeep Grand Cherokee and Liberty models with gas tanks that could potentially catch fire in certain types of accidents, FCA will offer financial encouragement for owners to get their recall work done or to trade those older vehicles in on new cars, according to the report. FCA could reportedly reduce its fines if it meets certain conditions, though those remain unclear at this time. These actions against FCA are being taken after NHTSA began a probe into the automaker over almost two dozen separate instances where the government claims FCA failed to follow proper procedures for recalls and safety defects. Included in those safety lapses are more than 11 million vehicles currently in customer hands. These penalties and fines are separate from the investigation over security problems with Chrysler's Uconnect system that allowed hackers to obtain remote access into key vehicle systems in 1.4 million vehicles.

1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express in Generation Gap showdown with 1933 Ford Pickup

Fri, 18 Jul 2014

Auto enthusiasts love a good debate, whether it's Mustang versus Camaro or Ferrari against Lamborghini. But how about a battle between two very different vintages of classic pickup trucks? In this case, the fight is between a 1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express and a 1933 Ford Model 46 truck with a flathead V8.
The shootout comes courtesy of the internet series Generation Gap, and its concept is super-simple. One guy prefers classics, and the other likes newer rides. They choose a category, pick two vehicles and put them head to head. In this case, neither is exactly modern, though. The Ford is more than old enough to receive Social Security checks, and the Dodge is hardly a young whippersnapper.
Other than both being pickups, these two models were made to serve very different functions. The Li'l Red Express was basically the progenitor of today's muscle trucks, with a big V8 that made it one of the quickest new models in its day (admittedly, 1979 was a rough time for automotive performance). On the other hand, the '33 Ford was just meant to work, with little pretense for anything else. One of the hosts describes it as "the simplest, most difficult" vehicle he's driven because of the tricky double clutchwork necessary to shift gears. Scroll down to watch the video and try to decide which of these two American classics you would rather have in your garage.

2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat revving is sonic bacon

Fri, 23 May 2014

This is the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, and we're sure that by now, you know its stats, including over 600 horsepower from its 6.2-liter, supercharged V8. What, pray tell, does that blown engine sound like, though?
At least judging on the sonic strength of this video, it's very, very dirty. Honestly, it sounds unlike anything that's come out of the Chrysler Group in a long time, if ever. It's loud, almost brutally so, with a bark that few road-going V8s can match.
Of course, you should be the final judge here. Take a look and a listen at the two videos below, one of which comes from our friends at Cars.com that provides a nice look under the hood, and then let us know what you think of the Hellcat's singing voice in Comments.
