1935 dodge rat truck. I know see why most rat rod trucks don't have hoods. what a pain to get everything to fit, anyway. the front end is out of a heavy duty ford econoline van. the front end was totally custom made. it has a 351 Cleveland 2v that totally rebuilt in about 1975. this engine has been started and runs very well. the radiator is out of a 1978 jeep wagoner and fits well. it has a small hole in the top that needs to be brazed. it will need a pusher type fan as there was not enough room to put a fan on. there is plenty of room between the grille and radiator for one. the transmission was in very nice condition and is totally apart. all internals are very nice and it has a brand new rebuild kit for it. this is all included. it also has an original stock stall converter that is included. the transmission was installed to ensure that everything fit when the body was installed. it will fit fine. the entire interior is installed and welded up, except for the area around the driver's side. I wanted to reinstall the trans and check everything again. this has a heater out of a 1978 jeep wagoner that works and is all hooked up. the fan on this heater also works. the photo does not show, but the interior will have a set of dodge van seats. these were previously installed also to make sure everything fit well. the power steering box is also out of the 1978 jeep wagoner. it is hooked up to the power steering pump, but has not been tested. this power steering worked fine when it was taken out of the jeep. a driveshaft was made to fit perfectly. it has new u-joints. a wiring fuse block is installed under the dash, and the engine part is wired, but the front/rear taillights will need to be wired. the rear end is out of an 80's ford truck, a DANA I believe, but need to check this if needed. the wood in the flat bed is old weathered oak that was reused from the old original truck. the gas tank is out of a 1930's or 40's allis chalmer tractor and all the gas lines are hooked up. the gas tank is very clean inside and mounted to the bed securely. the battery box is installed and the battery lines are already ran. it has a brand new starter. this was originally a AAA wrecker and the graphics on the doors are great. the body/hood/flatbed are all original to the truck. a new windshield was made and installed in the original frame. it has some rust on the bottom of the doors and cab, which is a requirement for a rat rod. the brakes on the front are rebuilt and has the master brake cylinder installed. it will need shock mounts installed on the front. the frame is dropped behind the cab so the frame rails do not stick up into the cab. with the seats installed it is comfortable, I am 6 feet tall and have plenty of room. this has been chopped 3 inches. this does not have a title, but I can get one if needed, this is a very easy process in the state of Wyoming. it has the original VIN mounted to the firewall. Please feel free to ask any questions. this can be inspected in Cody Wyoming. please note, this has not been driven. I check my ebay messages several times a day, but will be out of town next Friday and Saturday, so anyone is welcome to call me at 307-899-0776 with any questions, thanks. HAD A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS THAT I WILL ANSWER: THE REASON SOME OF THE PAINT IS GONE FROM THE VALVE COVER IS BECAUSE I DRIPPED SOME BRAKE FLUID ON THE VALVE COVER ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE AND IT TOOK THE PAINT OFF. THIS ENGINE WAS REBUILT AND HAS 0 MILES ON IT. I ALSO TOOK OFF A PLASTIC CAP FROM THE TOP OF THE CARB, OTHER THAN THE PHOTO, THIS HAD A PLASTIC CAP TAPED OVER THE TOP OF THE CARB SO NO DIRT OR CRITTERS WOULD GET INTO THE ENGINE. THIS WAS PUT BACK AFTER THE PHOTO WAS TAKEN, THANKS FOR THE QUESTIONS. IF ANY ADDITIONAL PHOTOS ARE NEEDED OF SPECIFIC AREAS, PLEASE CALL AND I WILL GET THEM SENT. PLEASE CALL AS EBAY DOES NOT ALLOW THE DREADED E-WORD IN A LISTING. |

MotorWeek remembers a better time for Mitsubishi performance
Fri, Feb 26 2016Dodge still knows how to create an capable performance car – look at the Hellcats, for example – but the same isn't true for Mitsubishi. With the Lancer Evo's demise, we don't expect driving enthusiasts to clamor for any of the Japanese automaker's other products. Things used to be different, though. As MotorWeek found in its new Retro Review, the 1991 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4 and its sibling, the Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo, were impressive sports coupes in their day. Dodge and Mitsubishi packed a bevy of cutting-edge tech into the coupes. In these trims, both sported all-wheel drive, four-wheel steering, an adjustable suspension, active exhaust, and automatic climate control. The 3000GT VR4 upped the ante even more with active aero parts at the front and rear. Their 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 was good for 300 horsepower and 307 pound-feet, which were good numbers at the time. This pair put all their gizmos to good use, too. MotorWeek compares the all-wheel-drive system's grip levels to a Porsche 911 Carrera 4. When was the last time you heard any favorable similarity between a Mitsubishi and a Porsche? The Stealth R/T Turbo and 3000GT VR4 came from a special time for Japanese sports coupes, when every brand had a halo model. Whether you were looking at Nissan 300ZX, Mazda RX-7, Toyota Supra, or even the Acura NSX, there was a lot to like on the market. MotorWeek's latest Retro Review offers a great reminder of that period.
Junkyard 1983 Dodge Rampage has Franco-American roots
Mon, Jun 20 2016Lee Iacocca and the K-Cars get most of the credit for saving Chrysler after the company's 1979 bailout by the US government, but the success of the Simca-derived Omnirizon platform was a large, if overlooked, component of Chrysler's early-1980s resurgence. The Dodge Omni and Plymouth Horizon were sold in the United States for the 1978 through 1990 model years, and variants included the 1983-1987 Dodge Charger and the Rampage, this well-worn example of which I spotted in a Denver self-service wrecking yard last week. The early Omnirizons came with a Volkswagen-sourced 1.7-liter engine, but all of the Rampage pickups (and their near-identical Plymouth Scamp siblings) came from the factory with a 2.2-liter K-Car engine making 96 horses. This truck has a 4-speed manual transmission, which would have made it reasonably quick by Malaise Era standards. This one had plenty of body filler and rust, even before the crash that sent it on that final tow-truck ride to this place, so it wouldn't have been worth restoring. Still, we can hope that some of its parts will live on in other L-body trucks.

Roadkill builds crazy-cheap 1968 Dodge Charger rat rod using an old motorhome
Tue, 24 Dec 2013Certain requests for description simply cannot be fulfilled, like if someone asked you to describe Picasso's Guernica or Gilliam's Brazil. There is only one appropriate answer to such entreaties, and that is: "You just gotta see it." That's where we are with the latest episode of Roadkill, wherein Messr's Freiburger and Finnegan dig out a 1968 Dodge Charger that Freiburger acquired in exchange for a set of cylinder heads, and intend to stuff it with the big-block motor from a long-bed, three-quarter ton Dodge pickup.
Only the pickup is too nice to tear apart, and the Charger needs a whole lot more lovin' - and parts - than initially expected. Enter, stage right, the Class A Dodge Pace Arrow motorhome with a 440 big-block purchased for $1,000, and a retired Plymouth Fury from a previous episode.
What ensues over the course of the 40-minute installment is more cuttin', yankin', leakin', stallin', hammerin' and smokin' action than you've seen in a long time, and some techniques that would have made even Cooter wonder, "I'm not sure if we should do that." By the end, though, the payoff is good enough to make you think about perusing AutoTrader for a '68 Charger just to see if maybe...
