1973 Dodge D100, long box stepside. Very original, 77,763 miles. I have owned this pickup since 2004, and have put about 8 or 9 thousand miles on it, I believe the mileage to be
original, based on the oil change sticker in the door from 1983. I bought it locally in Montana, and would guess it could have been here for 40 years, but cannot confirm that.
It was purchased by the US Government, if you look close you can see the lettering on the door. I was told it spent many years at the Belfry, MT cemetery.
Sadly, I have been unable to keep in under cover all the time these past eight years, and the paint shows this. It had always been my intention to
paint it, but didn't want it done cheaply, so I didn't do it at all. I am a fan of Dodge stepsides, and based on what I see pass thru ebay and if you ever see one parked, this is one of
the straightest, least abused you will find in unrestored condition. The seat has been recovered in original fabric from SMS, at a professional upholstery shop. I have used this pickup for
a spare runaround truck, and for when I need an open bed to move things. The bed wood is original, and has warped, but not bad for 40 years old. Over the years, I have had some carb work
done, block heater installed, new muffler, new tires (Coopers), which have good tread, but showing age. It can be cold blooded below freezing, but if plugged in, it starts fine. It runs better when
driven on a regular basis. I have all reciepts for work done, and these will be included.
The oil gets changed every year, regardless of the mileage I put on (1,000 mile average/year) All the lights work, as well as all gauges and such. It was a radio delete originally, as the radio in
it when I bought it had three holes in the area for the radio. I cut the hole out with a dremel tool, and installed a period correct AM Chrysler radio, but it does not work, just for looks. I imagine it
might work if you are handy that way. The motor sounds good, seems to burn a little oil, auto transmission works fine. Newer floormat, floor had surface rust, sprayed with a sealer, put down new
insulator carpet. The only rust thru is behind the front wheels, very common for Dodge's of this era. There is surface rust and oxidation otherwise, the pictures show all areas.
I have enjoyed this pickup a long time, and never figured I would ever sell it. But, I decided my backup should be 4WD and heavier duty, and a 1987 W250 came along, running out of room.
I would hope that another fan of Dodge stepsides will buy it, and repaint it in its original Medium Blue. It had a badly painted white bumper when I bought it, and I replaced it with a decent chrome one.
It has the original hubcaps, and even the reflectors on the rear sides, how often do you see those?! Also, this vehicle is basic, be sure this is what you want! No power steering, no A/C, just a time
machine to 1973. The gas tank is in the cab, and if it is full, there can be an odor of gas, so I don't fill it. The original tank was rusty inside, a replacement was found, cleaned, tested. Also, new fuel pump
and fuel filters, and gas lines. There a few minor dings, and scratches. Window rubber needs replaced. This vehicle is 40 years old, there is no warranty.
If you have any questions, please feel free to call (406) 351-1492. Thank you for viewing my auction.

Germany threatens to ban FCA vehicles over diesel emissions dispute
Tue, May 24 2016Germany is threatening to ban sales of FCA products over diesel emissions. According to the newspaper Bild Am Sonntag, Germany's Federal Motor Transport Authority found evidence of a so-called defeat device that shuts down certain emissions controls after running for 22 minutes. A standard diesel emissions test in the European Union reportedly takes 20 minutes to complete. FCA denies the allegations. "We believe all our vehicles respect EU emissions standards and we believe Italian regulators are the competent authority to evaluate this," the company said in a statement. The latter part of that statement drew ire from German authorities, especially after FCA declined to meet with German transport minister Alexander Dobrindt to discuss the issue. Graziano Delrio, the Italian Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, vowed to work with German authorities on behalf of FCA. According to EU law, FCA is required to homologate its vehicles in Italy because that's where its regional operations are based. When will the diesel-scented soap opera end? We wish we knew, but our Magic 8 Ball is covered in soot.

2013 Dodge Challenger R/T Redline revs into Chicago
Fri, 01 Feb 2013When Dodge released the Challenger Rallye Redline last year, it brought a new dimension of styling to the car's classic muscle car lines, but it was only available in V6 form lacking the oomph to back up its sinister appearance. To remedy that situation, Dodge is unveiling the Challenger R/T Redline, powered by a Hemi V8 engine, at the Chicago Auto Show.
Other than the extra cylinders, most of the R/T's Redline package carries over from the Rallye model including the custom-look 20-inch black chrome wheels with red paint accents, but the R/T version of the package gets more of a retro look to the side stripes with graphite graphics featuring Redline lettering. Cars equipped with the six-speed manual transmission will get a performance-tuned, low-restriction exhaust allowing the engine to produce 375 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque; cars with the five-speed auto are rated at 372 hp and 400 lb-ft, but they do offer a bright chrome Mopar t-handle shifter and steering wheel paddle shifters.
The R/T Redline Group is offered only on cars painted in Billet Silver, Granite Crystal, Bright White and Pitch Black, and it adds just $1,995 to the MSRP of the Challenger R/T (starting at $31,990) and the Challenger R/T Plus (starting at $33,990), which adds features like Nappa leather and Boston Acoustics speakers.
2017 Dodge Durango GT Brass Monkey: A funky winter drive
Fri, Mar 24 2017The 2017 Dodge Durango is one of our favorite sport utility vehicles. It has power and style and it stands out in a segment that is filled with vanilla-flavored people haulers. We recently had a Durango GT outfitted in Brass Monkey trim – highlighted by its 20-inch burnished bronze aluminum wheels - and took to the back roads of Michigan for an extended drive. The snow was flying. The temperatures dropped. It was muddy. The unpaved roads, pocked and rutted, were jarring, even though the forested setting was serene. The Durango had no trouble with any of it. Watch our video review for the complete experience.
