Up for auction is a very rare Dodge Adventurer Warlock D100 Pickup. These D13 pickups were built by Chrysler as "Adult Toys" The concept being toys built to be enjoyed by adults. This particular pickup was built in Canada 9/77 and was sold in 1978. It has been here in sunny Arizona since 1980. There are a few small rusted areas that will be need to addressed in the future. This vehicle is nearly all original, the only items that I can find that are not original are the steering wheel, and that original seat was recovered some time in the past.

 

this truck would make a GREAT starting point for a project, or fix the few small things and enjoy as it is!

brand new battery

rebuilt carburetor

original 15x10" rims

power brakes

vented discs up front

original glass

appears to have been repainted sometime in the past, in the original Black Metallic. The interior appears to be factory paint.

the truck currently has a 4 speed shifter on the floor, it is possible it was swapped from a column shifted transmission in the past.

original oak boards for the bed sides are decent to good condition, and also the wedges that hold them in tightly.

original 318 V8

numbers matching truck

equipped with Air conditioning, Power Steering and Power Brakes from the factory

recent tune up

starts, runs, stops, and drives great with no creaks or rattles

 

the following items will need to be addressed sometime in the future:

the tires have decent tread, but are starting to show their age and starting to crack

there are two small areas of the passenger floor boards that are rusted through.

passenger side taillight lens is faded and missing a small piece.

there is also small patch approximately 1.5"x3" of rust under the paint in the step area on the passenger side of the truck

wood in the bed near the tailgate is showing its age

the seat has been recovered in the past, and will need to be redone again

both the front and rear bumpers have been tweeked

there is a small dent on the front drivers side fender, a paintless dent removal pro could likely pop it out.

the handles on the door panels need some TLC

dash is cracked

 

 

As it sits now, it runs, drives, stops, starts very well. This would be a great rare dodge to restore, or to fix the few minor items and enjoy as is.

I will gladly help you arrange shipping from Tucson, Az. But ultimately it is the winning bidder's responsibility to arrange shipping if it is needed.

When you are bidding on this item, you are bidding to win it.  At end of auction $1000 will be due within 24hours. The balance is due within 72hours of the closing of the auction, unless other arrangements are made.

Any questions or to schedule a time to check the vehicle out please call and ask for me, David @ 520-312-1139.

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles recalls nearly 750k vehicles in two campaigns

Thu, 16 Oct 2014

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is recalling a total of 747,817 vehicles in the US in two separate campaigns recently added to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration database.
The first one covers about 434,581 units of the Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger, Challenger, Durango, and Jeep Grand Cherokee from the 2011-2014 model years with electric hydraulic power steering, the 3.6-liter V6 engine and a 160 amp alternator, according to FCA. In the affected vehicles, it's possible for the alternator to fail without warning and possibly cause the car to stall. According to the documentation submitted to NHTSA, the automaker began investigating the problem in August 2014 and has found possible evidence of one crash caused by the failures but no known injuries.
Customers will begin receiving notification about the recall next month, and obviously the repairs will be done at no cost to them.

Continental Automotive recalls 5 million airbag control units

Thu, Feb 4 2016

Takata isn't the only supplier having airbag problems. Rival manufacturer Continental Automotive Systems announced a recall of 5 million airbag control units fitted to vehicles from Honda, Fiat Chrysler Automotive, Mercedes-Benz, and even a certain Chrysler-based Volkswagen. This sweeping recall has actually been in progress for some time, although the exact scope is only now becoming evident. In October of 2015, Mercedes-Benz recalled 2008 and 2009 model year C- and GLK-Class vehicles because their Continental-made airbag control units could corrode. Such a condition could cause the airbags to deploy without cause or warning, or in the event of a crash, not deploy at all. You can read all about it in our post from last year. Now, Continental's recall is going wide. Alongside the already recalled C and GLK, you've already heard about the 2008 and 2009 Honda Accord airbag recall, which we reported on yesterday. Now, Fiat Chrysler is announcing the recall of the 2009 Dodge Journey, as well as the 2008 and 2009 Dodge Grand Caravan, Chrysler Town and Country, and their rebadged counterpart, the Volkswagen Routan. Yes, one manufacturer is recalling another manufacturer's vehicle. The models listed above only amount to about 580,000 vehicles out of 5 million bad airbag control units. And since Continental will notify manufacturers who will then issue their own recalls, it's extremely likely that more brands and vehicles will be ensnared. Stay tuned.
