1978 Dodge Lil Red Express on 2040-cars
Churchville, Maryland, United States
|
1978 dodge Lil Red Express pickup. it is a real lil red, not a clone. the S in the VIN denotes lil red. they only made these trucks in 1978 and 1979, and this is the more desirable year as the 1978 had no emission controls on the engine or exhaust. this is also the lowest production numbers, they only made about 2100 of these, and it is estimated that only 800 or so are left. also this year had the round headlights and sport hood. it has a factory high performance 360ci v-8, auto transmission, power brakes, and power steering. all four tires were replaced new approx. a year ago, front brake hoses, battery, fuel pump, and ignition were replaced less than a year ago. the truck runs and drives good. I am sure it could use a tune up. the bed wood needs to be replaced, the stainless strips are good. the exterior wood on the bed needs attention, but is all there. drivers seat has some cracks in the vinyl, the radio is not working, also the horn just stopped working (I am going to check the wires and fuse) the wheels have surface rust on the chrome. the only rust I see on the exterior of the body is some small pinholes on top of the drivers side rear fender (I tried to show it in one of my photos) there are a few very small minor dings here and there. truck could use a new paint job and decal kit. the decals, bed wood, and other items are readily available on ebay and other sources. this truck only has 61,000 original miles. it sat outside for quite awhile before I got it . I have tried to give a very detailed description, but feel free to ask any questions that you may have. buyer is responsible for pick up or shipping on this vehicle.

Dodge Hellcat orders on hold due to 'unprecedented demand'
Sun, Mar 15 2015Want to get your hands on a 707-horsepower Dodge Challenger or Charger Hellcat to call your very own? We don't blame you, and you're not alone. According to Motor Authority and confirmed by a spokesperson from Chrysler, Dodge has gotten so many orders for its stable of Hellcats that it simply cannot keep up with demand: "Due to unprecedented demand for the 2015 Dodge Charger and Challenger SRT Hellcats, we are temporarily restricting orders while we validate current orders that are in the system." Put another way, if you're waiting for a Hellcat, your wait is likely to be a lot longer than you'd like. We've reached out to Chrysler to find out how long it might take for a new customer to get a new Hellcat, and we'll update if and when we hear back.

Dodge performance trio thrashed on Roadkill
Tue, Apr 14 2015Of all the shows that Motor Trend does, Roadkill is probably the last one we'd pick to evaluate the latest performance automobiles. That's not a slight against David Freiburger or Mike Finnegan, who host the show: they're certified gear-heads and the go-to guys when it comes to hot rods, rat rods and anything grungier than it is shiny. But as exemplary as they are of Detroit muscle, the Charger Hellcat, Challenger Hellcat and Viper are also shiny new pieces of metal. Still, since it will now be sponsoring the show, someone at Dodge apparently thought it would be a good idea to hand Freiburger and Finnegan the keys to the company's top performance models. So to ring the best out of them, they solicited help from some of their colleagues at MT, gained access to a closed-down air strip, devised as many ways as they could to destroy the tires, and proceeded to set about doing exactly that. Watch the grin-inducing mayhem unfold in the half-hour clip above. Related Video:
Dodge vs. Chevy tug-of-war taken to the extreme
Mon, 17 Dec 2012They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.
