1987 Dodge Dakota Base Standard Cab Pickup 2-door 3.9l on 2040-cars

Dundalk, Maryland, United States

          We have a 1987 Dodge Dakota 2WD reg. cab, long bed pickup for sale. It is equipped with the 3.9 L V-6 engine, A/T, P/S, P/D/B, & A/C (not working, compressor locked up). It is currently tagged & driven almost every day, on Maryland Street Rod tags. We bought it to pull the motor & transmission to put in her 1951 Studebaker, but the truck is so solid I couldn't bring myself to tear it apart. Instead, we bought 2 brand new front fenders (which had most of the major rust on the truck), and a brand new chrome rear step bumper (which had the rest of the rust). The pictures will show it is a very solid body, the only rust remaining is a spot on top of the drivers door rocker panel (see picture), the passenger side rear cab corner (see picture), and the passenger side rear wheel well on the bed (see picture). The drivers side rear wheel well is just starting to rust, but has not come through yet. The only rust not shown is around the windshield, pin holes that do leak when it rains. I have it taped over with electrical tape, which stops the leak & almost looks like sealing trim. The tires are in fair / good condition, the fronts could probably be replaced. It would make an excellent street rod / pro street pickup project for someone who was looking for a project, or could be used as it is. I have a '93 5.2 L (318) Magnum V-8 I had kicked around putting in it after we pulled the V-6 that could go along with the truck if wanted. It would be a bolt-in swap for the V-6. All the glass is good (very small chip in the windshield), the door winders work properly, and it has a rear slider window. We recently drove the truck, loaded with parts, to the Chryslers at Carlisle meet and back, so it is road worthy. BUT, if I were going a long distance, I WOULD trailer it. I'm just not that confident with the front tires. Transportation of this truck IS the buyers responsibility. Rear brakes & parking brake cables were just done, and we bought a new pair of front coil springs that are included. That's about all I can think of for now. If you have any questions, or want any more information, give us a call at 410-952-5919 and we'll be glad to answer you. We have started the truck at the lowest price we will accept with no reserve, but we reserve the right to stop the listing at any time due to it being for sale locally.

          P.S. - I started to swap over the interior (beige bench seat) with the blue bucket seat interior out of the 1993 Dakota parts truck we had (where the engine came from). MOST of the trim panels have not been installed yet, but ARE included with the truck (as is the stock bench seat if wanted). I have installed the inside remote control mirrors off the '93. The last 3 pictures are of the short bed off of the '93. It is included (if wanted) for the patch panels for the long bed.

Explore Dom's 1970 'off-road' Dodge Charger from Furious 7

Fri, Apr 3 2015

The Aficionauto, Christopher Rutkowski, already drove Dom's 1970 Dodge Charger from Fast & Furious and Fast Five. Now he's returning to the franchise for an interview with Dennis McCarthy, the vehicle coordinator on the last five Fast and Furious films, plus a close look at the custom off-road Charger that's one of the automotive stars in Furious 7. Given his resume, when McCarthy admits this is his new all-time favorite vehicle from the franchise, it really means something. Don't worry. McCarthy is careful not to spoil any of the film's action while he shows off the Charger and Shaw's fast attack vehicle that takes on the Dodge. McCarthy does reveal the one car that he still dreams to build for the series, and it's something that every fan should see. This looks like a fantastic blockbuster movie season for anyone that loves to watch cars crash and explode on the big screen. Furious 7 is in theaters right now, and based on the trailer, it promises the biggest stunts ever from the long-running franchise. And in just a few weeks, Mad Max: Fury Road hits cinemas to add a dystopian tinge to the automotive action.

Dodge Viper returning to Le Mans this year?

Mon, Jan 5 2015

If you were among the fans disappointed by Chrysler's recent decision to end the Dodge Viper's racing program, we may have some good news for you, as the racing outfit behind the campaign is reportedly working to bring the American supercars back to Le Mans this year. That racing outfit is Riley Technologies, a constructor perhaps best known for its Daytona Prototypes, but it has also prepared its share of GT racers, too. Chrysler charged Riley with leading its racing program for the new Viper GTS-R, campaigned it in the United SportsCar Championship and the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Auburn Hills made the unfortunate decision back in March to pull its Vipers out of Le Mans, and then in October to withdraw from the US series, as well, thereby effectively ending the program altogether. Disappointed though it surely was, Riley remains defiant. The North Carolina-based company is planning on taking the existing Vipers back to Le Mans on its own, with or without factory support. The Viper has, after all, proven a capable machine, having taken both the drivers' and teams' titles in the United SportsCar Championship this past season. "With Le Mans, every driver and every manufacturer needs to have their first trip there, and it isn't always what you want it to be, but we did show reliability and did have some pace," Bill Riley told Racer.com. "Since then, we've worked hard on the cars, they're now strong, front-running cars in the US, and we're working with the ACO on the BoP to make sure the cars are strong at Le Mans. They're super-reliable and fast, and we'd expect to be right in the mix with the other cars." Riley has kept the existing support staff in place, and once it secures its driver lineup and sponsors, chances look good that it could represent America well at Le Mans this year in either the GTE Pro or GTE Am class. Its predecessor did, after all, complete a three-year winning streak that saw it dominate the GTS class right up until its withdrawal in 2000.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
