1978 Dodge Warlock Power Wagon 4x4 Stepside Mopar Truck Rarer / Little Red 4 Spd on 2040-cars
Minden, Nevada, United States
This truck is being sold AS IS and must be picked up in Minden, Nevada within 30 days of auction end. It runs and yard drives, but has not been on the road in many years and will need to be trailered. Please ask questions before bidding if I have left something out of my description. It needs total restoration of all components and is missing whatever is not shown. In the late 70s they sold a lot of Dodge's Adult Toys including this all black Warlock Power Wagon 4 speed. I purchased from the original owner (still in Reno) a few years ago. It had been neglected and parked since the 90s. With a battery, fresh gas, and a fuel pump and filter, it fired right up. It is a 318 with a factory 4 speed, and 9.25 rear with Sure Grip and 3.55 gears. It still retained an original Carburetor, alternator, radiator, (fuel pump) and some of the hoses including the bypass. A very original engine compartment. I also changed the oil prior to starting. It runs and drives, but should be completely gone thru before driving on the road. It needs and deserves a total restoration, Including the engine, which has low oil pressure, and a small coolant leak at the timing cover but no unusual noises. Miles are unknown, it shows 12K and is at least 112. The original owner did not have any additional info or documentation. The body has a lot of dents. See pictures, and note the damage to the tailgate, driver's side cab, door, fenders, bumpers, chrome step grill etc. It still has it's original cert label showing a very late build of July 1978 and door vin tag. This is one of the last of the 78 Warlocks. Also note the placement of the Power Wagon hood emblems. Pushed back, and typical of the Late 78 utilines. You are looking at all original paint/stripes and the gold primer coming thru. The interior still has it's original black buckets, Tuff Wheel w/ 4x4 only adapter, and even original carpet, (cut to expose floors). The cab is as solid as they come with nothing but original black paint in the floor pans. The windshield and passenger side glass are damaged, originally factory tint. The truck still has it's four original 15/8 chrome slot wheels (same as lil red) and the original plastic center caps. It is missing the spare and the wood racks.. The frame is dry and straight with only the usual surface rust (even in the desert). The bed wood and strips are gone, replaced by plywood. The tires are ancient but hold air. If your looking for a Rare Power Wagon to restore, this is your truck. Clear Nevada title in my name and can be exported. It is sold AS IS where is, Minden Nevada 89423.

Does the future of Fiat-Chrysler include Dodge?
Thu, 13 Jun 2013Wards Auto reports the future of Dodge is looking uncertain. Fiat has more or less laid out it's game plan for the next few years, and while the Chrysler, Fiat and Jeep lines are set to receive plenty of love, Dodge isn't so lucky. Fiat has already hobbled Dodge significantly by splitting off the brand's trucks into a separate Ram line.
Wards says that after the Avenger rides off into the sunset early next year, Fiat-Chrysler won't replace the model, leaving a gaping midsize hole in the Dodge lineup. The report also cites unnamed sources as saying that at least two other current Dodge products will move to the Chrysler line.
One of those could very well be the Grand Caravan. Chrysler has already made it clear that it plans to trim redundancy between its minivan offerings, but it has yet to clarify which other vehicle could sail under the Chrysler banner moving forward. Either way, such changes to the product line would theoretically leave Dodge with just four models.
2014 Challenger R/T Shaker, Mopar '14 Challenger bring back iconic hood
Tue, 05 Nov 2013Enamored of the Dodge Challenger but wish you could get one with a shaker hood? We've got good news, because Dodge and Mopar have teamed up to bring it back.
The 2014 Dodge Challenger R/T Shaker packs the same 5.7-liter Hemi V8 as the standard Challenger R/T, but upgrades the business end with a through-the-hood exposed cold-air intake system. The retro hood scoop protrudes from the center of the hood in satin black (matching the decklid spoiler) to feed the Hemi and shakes with the engine just like the original from 1970. The Shaker model also comes with a Super Track Pak that adds a new steering rack, brake linings, shocks and 20-inch Goodyear Eagle F1 Super Car rubber. You can also shut off the stability management system completely in this car. A series of interior and exterior trim enhancements round out the look. The whole package adds $2,500 to the price of a Challenger R/T Classic for an all-in MSRP of $36,995.
In case that's not enough, Dodge is also offering a limited-edition Mopar Challenger that follows the 2010 Mopar Challenger, 2011 Mopar Charger, 2012 Mopar 300 and 2013 Mopar Dart. Limited to just 100 examples, the 2014 Mopar Challenger gets the same Shaker hood intake, unique graphics and wheels, an enhanced interior and a long list of optional extras from the Mopar parts catalog. Dodge isn't saying just yet how much the Mopar Challenger will cost, but you can bet it will command a considerable premium for the exclusivity alone.
Chrysler celebrates 30 years of minivans with special editions
Tue, 03 Sep 2013It's been known by many names: the Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Caravan, Plymouth Voyager, Chrysler Voyager, Lancia Voyager, Volkswagen Routan, Ram Cargo Van... but the bottom line is that Chrysler's minivans have defined the segment for 30 years now. In fact, Chrysler says it has sold 13 million of them since 1983, helped along by the Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan that accounted for nearly half of all minivans sold in the United States just last year. So to celebrate this three-decade milestone, the Auburn Hills auto has announced a pair of new special editions.
The 2014 Chrysler Town & Country 30th Anniversary Edition starts the Touring-L trim and includes such special touches as 17-inch wheels, unique badging, available Granite Crystal Pearl paint and an interior decked out in black Alcantara and Nappa leather, piano black trim and all the optional bells and whistles bundled in.
The 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan 30th Anniversary Edition, meanwhile, starts off with either the SE or SXT trims and also upgrades with 17-inch alloys as well as color-keyed mirrors and an interior with silver stitching, piano black trim, power everything, and of course, those special badges.
