Have a 1978 Li'l Red Express pick up. It has just over 81k miles the truck is in great shape for the age. The paint is in decent shape along with the interior. The engine could stand to be repainted but nothing to serious. This would be a great driver and show truck. It always turns heads when I'm out in it. Since I've owned the truck I installed the original stacks with factory tips, put a set of crager draglites with 10" rear wheels and skinnys on the front. The truck also has the  factory am/fm/cb with the correct antenna. I do have the factory slotted mag wheels as well. This truck is a true factory muscle truck and real performer. Couldn't ask for a better driving vehicle.

This is one of the most unique trucks ever produced by Dodge. This was the fastest production vehicle out performing the corvettes and trans ams at that time. these trucks were produced because of a loophole in the emissions regulations. The Li'l Red Truck did not come with catalytic converters, what the Li'l Red's did have was a special high performance 360 C.I.  4-barrel small block engine, which was a modified version of the 360 police engine. The package also included hemi style mufflers with a crossover pipe breathing through 2 chrome stacks located behind the cab, a special 727 transmission and 3.55:1 rear gearing. There were 2,188 of the 1978s produced out of those there is an estimated 679 remaining. As the years go by these trucks are harder to come by that are original with the factory motor and transmission.

This SEMA special drag race is absurdly awesome

Fri, Dec 5 2014

The SEMA Show came and went last month, and it showed us a ton of heavily modded goodies to dream about during the long, cold winter. The Motor Trend Channel on YouTube is keeping the party rolling a little longer, though, with a drag race inspired by the aftermarket event. All of the hosts were supposed to borrow a vehicle from the show for the big race, but only two of them actually cajoled companies into lending their wares. Still, the result includes four very cool and extremely different examples of the breadth of the automotive hobby. First up, there's a 1955 Chevrolet with a 535-cubic-inch (8.8-liter) Hemi V8 stuffed under the hood. Appropriately, it's dubbed the Blasphemi, and with skinny tires up front, fat rubber in the rear and a stripped interior, this this is made to go very fast in a straight line. Next, there's a stock Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat boasting 707 horsepower. Plus, host Jessi Lang has her dog riding shotgun for the race. A Chevy Sonic RS with some body mods, downpipe and intake is also competing. Finally, the most bizarre of the quartet is a custom 1958 Jeep Forward Control with a 5.7-liter Hemi V8 and treads to replace the wheels. Obviously, the Blasphemi and Hellcat are the only two that really have a chance of winning, but check out the video to see which one crosses the finish line first.

Chrysler recalling 278,222 trucks and SUVs over bad rear axles

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

Chrysler has issued a recall of 278,222 light trucks and sport utility vehicles here in the United States. The reason: bad rear axles. Specifically, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the rear axle pinion nut may lack a necessary adhesive patch, which could cause the nut to loosen. If this happens, the axle can lock up, which could cause all sorts of havoc on the road.
This is an expansion of the rear axle recall announced in October of last year, where 44,300 Ram 1500 and Dodge Dakota models were being called in. At that time, 12 accidents had been reported due to the faulty axle pinion nut.
Affected vehicles include Ram 1500 trucks from the 2009 to 2012 model years, Dodge Dakota models from the 2009 to 2011 model years, and both the Chrysler Aspen and Dodge Durango SUV twins, both from the 2009 model year only.
