I bought this truck out of southern Pennsylvania about 4 years ago. It had been sitting for awhile. I believe I am the third owner. I did the brakes 100% including shoes, wh cyls, hoses, lines as needed, master cyl , hardware as needed. Tune up with plugs points cap, rotor, wires, carb kit. Gas tank pulled & checked out ok. New clutch master & slave cyl. Shocks pulled & check out ok. The exhaust was shot so I built a custom dual system using Hedman headers. It was cheaper than a factory system and is quiet. This past year it got a new battery & 10 ply radial tires. The truck has very rare factory stainless steel west coast type mirrors as well as an equally rare interior day/nite mirror. It even has period correct "aerodynamic" stainless wiper blades. It still has the original jack & lug wrench, underneath spare tire carrier as well as a bed carrier but no spare tire. It has a class 3 trailer hitch and correct 6 pin wiring connection. There is a Tekonsha electric brake control in the cab but it is not working. Maybe a wiring issue, I have not messed with it. I have towed my car trailer with no problem. Factory step bumper. Owners manual included. The mileage was in the 62,000 range when I bought it but at 66,446 the speedo broke due to the wrong cable (too long). I replaced the speedo with a used one showing 79,085 miles and the correct cable. It works perfectly. I estimate the actual mileage at not much more than 67,000 but I cannot document it other than showing the pictures of both speedometers. All lights, horn, wipers etc. work as they should. It has a complete intact factory windshield washer system but I have never tried it. Things I know it needs: driver's vent cable; heater cable froze in "on" position, passenger door does not lock with key (link missing), door window weather-strip & cat whiskers. If I were to keep it, I would change the soft plugs although they do not seem to leak now. As far as rust, everybody has their own ideas and standards. This truck has rust and has had rust repair and a repaint in the past. The drivers floor has been repaired as have the running board step areas, inner front fender wells by hood hinges. A previous owner lined the bed floor & sides with 1/8 " steel plate, why? I do not know. Looking underneath, the original bed floor & sides do not appear to be all rusted out. However there is now some rust showing in areas of this plating as shown. The truck appears today as when I bought it. It is very solid in my opinion, doors open & close with no sag. Tailgate has had some repair to right side hinge area, but works as it should. Overall this truck runs & drives very well. It starts right up, does not smoke or use oil. Previous owner claimed to have done a valve job, but I cannot document that. It is not a show piece but for a 45 year old Dodge truck in upstate New York it is in very good overall reliable condition and gets favorable comments whenever I take it out. I have described this vehicle to the best of my ability but I may have overlooked something. I encourage you to come take a look and a drive and to ask any questions you may have. If you need more pix, let me know. I will not ship. Truck is "as is where is". If reserve is met, I will through in major power steering components, including pump, ram, drag link, misc. hoses of which I have over $300 invested. Bid to own, not to show up & decide something else. Thank you for your consideration.

Why the Charger Hellcat can't be ordered with a manual transmission
Sun, 16 Nov 2014Fans of truly irreverent amounts of horsepower will find lots to love in the form of the 2015 Dodge Challenger and Charger Hellcat models. Both of them send 707 ridiculous horsepower to the rear wheels; the only question is whether you want your absurdity delivered with two or four doors. Oh, and whether or not you want the option of a manual transmission.
If you prefer rowing your own gears, the choice is made for you; there is no manual gearbox option available on the Charger Hellcat, or any Charger model at all, for that matter. Wonder why? Well, besides the fact that almost nobody - sorry, clutch fans, but it's true - would choose to buy a Charger with a manual transmission, that is? The answer, according to an industry insider in a post written on Jalopnik's Opposite Lock forum, is the floorpan.
It's probably not a surprise to most of our readers that the Dodge Challenger and Charger share a large portion of their chassis structure, which is codenamed LX at Chrysler, but there are still some significant differences under the skin due to the shorter wheelbase and two-door coupe bodyshell of the Challenger, as opposed to the sedan shape of the Charger. One of the differences is the floorpan, the huge chunk of sheetmetal that makes up the floor of the car and props up such essential items as the car's seats.
2014 Dodge Durango teaser reveals new 'racetrack' taillights
Fri, 22 Mar 2013Not wanting to let Jeep get all of the SUV attention for the 2014 model year, Dodge is unveiling a refreshed version of its Durango at the New York Auto Show. Teased in this image, all we can really tell about the 2014 Dodge Durango is that it will be getting Dodge's "racetrack" taillights similar to the Charger and Dart.
The chrome or painted strip currently between the Durango's Zorro taillamps have been removed to allow for a full-width LED array with "DODGE" lettering displayed more prominently above the license plate pocket. Parent company Chrysler also promises that the updated Durango will add "several new class-exclusive features," but stops short of saying what those are. Earlier reports suggest that among the changes, buyers will be able to look forward to an eight-speed automatic gearbox, which ought to improve the three-row SUV's fuel efficiency.
Dodge Durango gets the Blacktop treatment
Sat, 09 Aug 2014The Dodge Durango is getting a meaner, more aggressive look as it becomes the latest model from the brand to wear the Blacktop Appearance Package. The upgrades are strictly cosmetic, but they lend the SUV a more assertive demeanor that some buyers like.
Available on the SXT, Limited and R/T (shown above) models, all Blacktop Durangos get black 20-inch wheels, dual exhaust, bod- color fascia and gloss black trim. The grille surround, air dam, mirrors and headlight surrounds all get the inky treatment, as well. The improvements add $1,590 to the cost of the SXT. They come to $1,990 on the Limited but also include HID headlights with LED running lights and a leather interior. Finally, R/T buyers only need to pay $295 for the upgrades. The Blacktop Durango hits showrooms this October.
If you're already in the market for a Durango but want a dash more style with no added performance, the Blacktop might not be a bad way to go. It certainly gives the SUV a bit more edge than it has in stock form. Scroll down to read the full release.
