You are bidding on a nice unrestored survivor 1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express Truck.  This was a very limited-production "muscle truck," and held the honor of the fastest American production vehicle in both 1978 and 1979.  There were just over 5,000 made and they are already considered very rare and collectible.


This particular truck features all its' original body panels and has zero outer body rust-through; only very minor hints of surface rust where the paint has been scratched or chipped.  The floors had some surface rust which was wire-brushed off and sprayed with a rust-preventative paint.  The body is very straight with only a couple of minor dings.  The paint is still shiny and shows well, but is not perfect; same with the decals and pin striping. Overall, the truck shows very well and gets lots of compliments.

The glass, chrome, trim, and decorative oak wood trim is in good sound condition.  The exhaust stacks are in excellent condition on both sides.  The original chrome slot wheels are showing some age with some chrome failing, but still look nice. The chrome step is excellent on the driver's side with no issues, and still looks nice on the passenger side with some peeling chrome plating.  The glass in the driver's outside rear view mirror is broken.  The wood in the bed definately needs to be replaced, and the interior needs new carpet; those are really the only things the truck "needs" other than some fine tuning and minor sorting out. I have looked online and found the bed wood kit for just over $400.00, and the carpet kit for under $130.00; these are both things anyone with two hands and basic tools can accomplish in a day.

The truck runs strong and sounds great, but could use final fine tuning and perhaps a carb service.  The 3.55 rear end has been fully rebuilt, and the transmission serviced.  I just went through the entire brake system including new power booster, master cylinder, front calipers and pads, and rear shoes.  While not a perfect truck, it's a sound running and driving classic needing only minor cosmetics and sorting out.  I've priced it to represent a bargain and leave room for the buyer to enjoy as-is, or restore.

The seat has a split in the driver's area. The dash pad is excellent, door panels very good *(no cracks on either), gauges all intact, windows all roll up and down properly, etc.  The lights, turn signals, and brake lights are all properly working. Truck has power steering, power brakes, and Air Conditioning *(will need to be recharged; still there and connected).  

The truck ships with its' original chrome slot wheels with nice staggered 275/235-60 Cooper Cobra Radial GT tires.

While every effort is being made to describe the vehicle accurately, it is a 34-year-old vintage classic and being sold as-is, with no warranty expressed or implied.  Shipping will be the full responsibility of the buyer; however, I will make myself available to your shipper for loading with 24-hour notice.

You may contact me directly at 360-936-9257 with any questions, offers, etc.  Zero-feedback bidders need to please contact me prior to bidding to discuss your intentions.  Please be prepared to remit payment in full within three days of auction end by certified major bank cashier's check, bank wire transfer, or cash.

2014 Dodge Durango

Wed, 25 Sep 2013

Say what you want about the Dodge Durango, but ever since it came on the scene in 1998, it has occupied its own niche in the SUV market - not too small, not too big, tough, able, not always the best on the road and not always the best off-road. If it were a football player, it would be a tight-end that can block and catch. If it were a hamburger - a double burger with cheese and bacon, but not the Whopper.
As part of a mid-cycle upgrade for what was already a very capable SUV that Chrysler introduced in 2011, and built on the same platform as the Mercedes GL-Class and Jeep Grand Cherokee, the 2014 Durango has gotten some refinements worth noting that have cleaned up its tailoring and toned up its body and powerplant. The result is an SUV that shows itself to be a very good value in a category full of sticker prices that can run away faster than a kid who's been told he has to take ballroom dancing lessons.
Chrysler executives showing us the new Durango made a special point to reiterate that the Dodge brand is not going away, as has been rumored after the company took the Ram and Viper - the cream of the brand - out from under the Dodge umbrella. Turns out Dodge has been the brand attracting the most young people (who knew?) and has a younger average age buyer than Honda. The Dodge brand historically has also attracted buyers who aren't exactly Phi-Beta Cappa, which some companies worry about. Chrysler not so much. Dodge buyers tend to be more the working, high-school-educated, community-college-educated backbone of the work force in America. If they keep coming to Dodge, the Durango is a pretty good piece of hardware to save up for.

2016 Dodge Viper ACR priced from $117,895

Tue, May 12 2015

Fancy getting your hands on the all-new Dodge Viper ACR? Prepare to shell out at least $117,895, not counting destination or gas-guzzler tax. Those two add $1,995 and $2,100, respectively, for an out-the-door price of $121,990. That's $32,900 more than a base 2015 Viper, or the equivalent of a Challenger with a few options. As we explained previously, the ACR model doesn't do much for outright power – the 8.4-liter V10 offers up only five more ponies than before – but it does add suspension and aerodynamic upgrades that make this particular Viper far more potent on the track. The order books are officially open for the ACR, so if you've got the coin, get in touch with your local dealer. Until then, head into Comments and let us know what you think of the ACR's pricing. Would you shell out $118,000 for the ultimate Viper? DODGE OPENS ORDER BANKS FOR NEW 2016 DODGE VIPER ACR The fastest street-legal Viper track car ever offers a tremendous value for performance May 12, 2015 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - Viper enthusiasts with the need for ultimate handling, performance and road course domination, as well as the ability to drive their Viper home from the track, can now place their orders for the fastest street-legal Viper track car ever. The Dodge brand has announced pricing and opened order banks for the recently introduced 2016 Dodge Viper ACR. Unveiled last week at the revamped Conner Avenue Assembly Plant in Detroit, the American Club Racer model of the iconic, hand-built American supercar will have a starting U.S. Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of $117,895 (excluding destination and gas guzzler tax). "Bringing our street-legal Dodge Viper ACR back is going to arm our track enthusiasts with the ultimate weapon to dominate road courses across the country," said Tim Kuniskis, President and CEO - Dodge and SRT Brands, FCA - North America. "This is without a doubt the best Viper ACR ever. The latest in aerodynamic, braking and tire technology will ensure its legendary performance reputation around the world." Originally introduced in 1999 and last available for the 2010 model year, the Viper ACR has a long-standing legacy as the ultimate street-legal track car for club racing. The new 2016 model honors that performance legacy with significant aerodynamic and suspension upgrades, new Carbon Ceramic brakes with six-piston calipers and high-performance tires specifically designed for ACR.

2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat en route to dealers

Sat, 15 Nov 2014

Get ready, world: The 707-horsepower Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat has officially been unleashed. But rather than just have the big coupes quietly arrive at dealers, Dodge has released this video, showing Hellcats loading up onto car carriers at Fiat-Chrysler's Brampton, Ontario plant. And yes, that is Mötley Crüe's "Kickstart My Heart" playing in the background. Of course.
This really is worth all the fanfare, though, considering Dodge will sell its ridiculously powerful, supercharged machine for just $59,995. And if the Challenger isn't quite up your alley, just remember, there's an equally powerful, 204-mph, four-door Charger Hellcat on the way...
