1946 Dodge Pick-up Truck. It is considered a pre-war body style though.

The body has some rust, but is fairly reasonable for a 68 year old truck. The fenders are solid but look like they may have had dents hammered out of them, as they have many dimples in them. The windshield is cracked, and the windshield frame is rotted pretty well, but the crank out mechanism still works. The wood in the bed is rotten. The tailgate needs to be held on with a ratchet strap, as the bed sides tend to droop outwards. The rear window is fine, and both side windows are fine and crank up and down. The door latches work well.

The interior is as plain as you could imagine. It has a bench seat, with naugahyde that is torn/cracking. It has wood panels over the battery box and around the shifter, and both are rotting. I'm not sure if any of the gauges work, but about 5 years ago I charged the battery and the headlights and gauge lights worked.

The engine is the stock 6 cylinder flathead. 5 years ago I had it running, and drove it down the road. The clutch didn't slip, the tranny worked in all 3 forward and 1 reverse gear. The hydraulic brakes do not work, and I had to use the parking brake to slow down. The accelerator pump in the carb was shot, so it took some feathering of the throttle to move it. I haven't attempted to revive it since that day, so the current running condition I am stating as not running. When I had it running, the generator was charging fine.

This vehicle is being sold AS-IS, and it's old so expect there to be things wrong with it.

This truck is also for sale locally, so this auction may be canceled at any time.

No delivery of this truck is included, as the buyer is responsible for pick-up/transport.

A $500 deposit will be required, and the remainder of the balance will be due before the truck leaves the premises.

Amazon opens contest for The Grand Tour tickets in the US

Thu, Jul 7 2016

British enthusiasts already had the opportunity to win tickets to the first taping of The Grand Tour, and now Amazon has opened up a similar chance for customers in the US. In celebration of Prime Day, which starts today, customers in the US can enter The Grand Tour Prime Day Prize Draw. The prize includes travel, $200 to spend, accommodation, and a meet and greet with Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May. Customers that are interested fulfilling a childhood dream should visit Amazon's website and fill out the entry form soon as the draw closes on July 12. The Grand Tour will launch this fall as an exclusive for Amazon Prime members with the exact city locations for studio records set to be revealed later this summer. Amazon, however, did reveal that the trio will host shows in the UK, US, and Germany. So there's no need to get too upset if you don't win the draw. With Top Gear getting a major shakeup with the departure of Chris Evans, we're itching to see Clarkson, Hammond, and May behind the wheel of cars again. The trio, it seems, is also excited to get the new show rolling as Clarkson posted a drifty video on his Facebook page. The trio are currently in Italy filming a comparison between an Aston Martin DB11, a Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, and Rolls-Royce Dawn. The five-second clip has the Challenger Hellcat and DB11 drifting head-on into the camera crew, which is behind the wheel of an Alfa Romeo.

2013-14 Dodge Viper recalled over faulty door handles

Fri, Apr 10 2015

The 2013-14 Dodge Viper is getting a voluntary recall affecting 1,762 cars worldwide to replace their door-handle assemblies. Of the affected vehicles, FCA US reports there are 1,451 in the US, 160 in Canada, 17 in Mexico and 59 of them outside of NAFTA. After receiving three reports of doors either not closing or opening while driving a low speeds, FCA US engineers found a new sealant from a supplier didn't provide sufficient moisture protection to the electronic switches for the door latches. If the parts get wet, this can potentially cause a short circuit. The automaker is quite clear that are no reports of accidents of injuries from this problem. As always, the recall repairs will be done at no cost to owners, and FCA US will be getting in touch with customers soon about the problem. Related Video: Statement: Door-handle Assemblies April 9, 2015 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - FCA US LLC is voluntarily recalling an estimated 1,762 cars globally to replace their door-handle assemblies. FCA US launched an investigation after the Company received three warranty claims linked to doors that failed to close or opened inadvertently while vehicles were moving at low speed. The Company is unaware of any related injuries or accidents. Engineers determined a sealant, newly adopted by a supplier, provided inconsistent moisture protection to the electronic switches that control the door latches. Switches exposed to moisture may short-circuit. Affected are approximately 1,451 model-year 2013-14 Dodge Viper SRT cars in the U.S.; 160 in Canada; 17 in Mexico and 59 outside the NAFTA region. Affected customers will be notified and advised when they may schedule service, which will be performed at no cost. Customers with questions may call the FCA US Customer Information Center at 1-800-853-1403.
