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.


Sold new here in dry Northern Nevada at Don Weir's Reno Dodge.
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. It must be paid in full within 3 business
days of auction close, and picked up within 30 days. All shipping costs
are the responsibility of the buyer.  Please check your shipping costs
and with your wife before bidding.

11 vehicles from Barrett-Jackson Las Vegas worth watching

Fri, 26 Sep 2014

This weekend will see the world's collector car crowds descend on Las Vegas, NV for one of the biggest shows on Barrett-Jackson's popular auction circuit. There are hundreds of vehicles up for bidding, ranging from a brand-new Lamborghini Aventador to a spattering of Art Deco classics and a huge swath of classic muscle cars.
While it's virtually impossible to assemble an inarguable list of the best cars coming during the three-day, 700-plus vehicle auction, we've sifted through the listings for this year's show - it was a tough assignment, we promise - and assembled a list of what we think will be some of the most interesting lots. We'll admit, it's a bit heavy on American iron, but if you browse BJ's listings, you'll come to a similar conclusion. Still, scroll down for our list of what we think will be the most interesting vehicles at the upcoming auction.

Pony-car sales war: Mustang vs. Camaro vs. Challenger [UPDATE]

Fri, Jul 3 2015

Update: An earlier version of this story misstated the 2015 Mustang's weight when compared with previous models. Additionally, we have added comments from Chevrolet in the text. The Ford Mustang has blown past the Chevy Camaro as America's best-selling pony car, and in June, it wasn't even close. The 'Stang outsold the Camaro 11,719 to 8,611 cars. The Camaro remained ahead of the Dodge Challenger, which sold 6,845 units. Even though the Camaro did post an 11.5-percent sales improvement in June, the competition is arguably stronger than at anytime since the 1970s muscle-car era. The Mustang's sales leapt a whopping 53.6 percent, while the Challenger saw a gain of 56 percent. Several factors are weighing down Camaro sales, including its lame duck status. Chevy is launching a new generation of the Camaro this year that's more than 200 pounds lighter, offers a new turbo four-cylinder engine option, and has a nicer interior than the outgoing model. Put simply: wait a few months and you can get a better car. It's also unlikely Chevy will jack up the price much, as it's historically kept the Camaro within reach of everyday enthusiasts. While Chevy fans wait in anticipation for their new sports car, Ford and Dodge have downshifted. The new Mustang, which went on sale last year, is faster and more sophisticated than its predecessor. It also offers a 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder, which Ford has credited for the Mustang's recent uptick and makes up 36 percent of the car's sales, Ford analyst Erich Merkle said. View 17 Photos June's performance allowed the Mustang to widen its sales gap with the Camaro this year. Through the first five months, Ford sold 68,290 Mustangs, a 54.4-percent increased compared with 2014. Chevy sold 42,593 Camaros, an 8.7-percent decrease. The Challenger – long the No. 3 pony car in sales volume – has seen its sales surge 41 percent this year to 37,011 units. Spokesman Monte Doran said Chevy expected that 2015 would be a "relatively soft year" for the Camaro. "Mustang is taking advantage of years' worth of pent-up demand for an independent rear suspension," he said. "When Camaro introduced an IRS, in 2009, it helped make us the best-selling performance car in America.

Burglars target Detroit-area dealership, steal Hellcat from showroom floor

Thu, Jan 26 2017

A crew of Detroit car thieves seriously upped their game this week after stealing a Hellcat Challenger straight off the showroom floor. According to CBS Detroit, at around 1:00 am on January 24, a crew of burglars hit the Snethkamp Ram City dealership in Highland Park, MI. In full view of surveillance cameras, the burglars smashed a large glass door that led to the showroom floor and within seconds made off with a $75,000 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat. First they pushed the car through the broken door and out on to Woodward where a van was waiting. The van then pushed the car to a waiting tow truck and, just like that, the car and the crooks were gone. "It looks like they had about a minute and 30 seconds to open the door and push the car out, and then we see another car pushing it away," owner Mark Snethkamp told WWJ. "We've got some really good video and I'm shocked that the Highland Park police didn't catch them because they were here very shortly right after them." Snethkamp also told WWJ that they haven't had a break-in at the dealership like this since the 90s. Both the car and the suspect remain at large, and the Detroit Police Department are encouraging anyone with information to call either DPD or the Help Eliminate Auto Thefts (HEAT) tip line.
