1951 Dodge B-1 Series 3/4 Ton Truck On A 1996 Dodge 3500 12v Cummins Chassis on 2040-cars
Goshen, Indiana, United States
I am selling my 1951 dodge b-1 series truck. I purchased the truck in Kansas from the grandson of the original owner in the same town it was purchased new in (this is what I was told but didn't bother to verify) I brought the truck home and removed the body, set it on to a 1996 dodge ram 3500 two wheel drive dually with a 12 valve p-pumped cummins turbo diesel and automatic transmission that we cut and shortened. the cab is completely fitted and secured to frame. the bed is fitted but needs secured yet. the 51 body is showing 50996 miles, the 1996 chassis was showing 119,565 miles. the steering column and steering components are installed and functioning, gas and brake pedal assembly is installed and functional. here is the list of what needs done to finish this project to a running driving truck: rear driveshaft needs shortened and installed, fuel tank needs installed and hooked up (I had a custom made aluminum 25 gal tank made that fits the factory 96 frame mount location and utilizes the factory fill on the 51 cab), brake lines hooked up, intercooler and radiator installed, bed floor built, section of firewall that is cut out made and welded in, exhaust finished ( exhaust ends under bed right now), bottom seat cushion installed (have a new one for it) the 1996 dodge pcm mounted (its hooked up and laying on engine). im sure im forgetting some small things but the hard part is all done. I have a lot of money invested here but I really don't have time to finish it. you can call or text with questions or OFFERS @ 574-361- zero four 4 nine. please no tire kickers or dreamers, serious buyers only, delivery is possible with expenses paid by buyer. if you need permission from your banker, wife, or your mommy, please do that before you call or text me. if you have no mechanical ability what so ever and don't have the money to pay a real mechanic to finish this then don't even think about it, this is a project for grown ups with grown up expectations about life with real tools or a real checking and savings account. if you try to pull a scam with me, beware.. ill come to where you sleep and whisper in your ear just before the pop. DONT WASTE MY TIME. have a pleasant day and god bless.

2023 J.D. Power Initial Quality Study shows there's less quality than last year
Thu, Jun 22 2023Vehicle inventory, vehicle pricing, and the supply chain are finally showing improvement. Vehicle quality, on the other hand, is still going the wrong way. That's the takeaway from the 2023 J.D. Power Initial Quality Study that found overall problems exceeded last year's record high. The study surveyed owners of 2022-model-year vehicles to assess the average rate of problems per 100 vehicles (PP100) during the first 90 days of ownership. The average figure for the 32 ranked manufacturers in 2020 was about 166 problems per 100 vehicles. In the 2021 IQS, that dropped to an average of 162. For 2022, the average jumped to 180 problems. For 2023, the PP100 is up to an industry average of 192 — an increase of 30 problems per 100 vehicles in just two years. Let's get to the good news first: Dodge reclaimed the crown of having the lowest number of problems per 100 vehicles at 140. Buick won last year with 139 PP100, falling to third this year. Dodge was the first American automaker to top the IQS in 2021. Its return as the least problematic gives parent company Stellantis three wins in four years after Ram was crowned in 2021. It also gives U.S. brands a four-peat after Buick topped the chart in 2022 by having owners report the fewest problems. This year's top 10 is Dodge, Ram, Alfa Romeo, Buick, Chevrolet, GMC, Porsche, Cadillac, Kia, and Lexus. Stellantis gathered a few feathers for its cap, in fact. Maserati showed the largest improvement year-on-year, followed by Alfa Romeo, and Alfa Romeo posted the lowest PP100 among the premium class, beating Porsche and Cadillac. Alfa Romeo has been vocal about working to improve quality, mentioning Lexus as a target. Last year the Japanese brand finished sixth, the Italians finished near the bottom, between Jaguar and Mitsubishi. This year Alfa jumped to third, Lexus dropped to tenth. Ram was the third-best on the list of improvers from 2022 to 2023.  The individual model with the lowest PP100 is the Nissan Maxima. Now for the troublesome bits. In the words of Frank Hanley, senior director of auto benchmarking at J.D. Power, "The industry is at a major crossroad and the path each manufacturer chooses is paramount for its future.
40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
