NOTE: Orange Pick-up NOT FOR SALE.

Title is clean and registered until June 2014. It will NOT pass smog at its present state. Needs exhaust manifold repaired or replaced due to crack, Most of the emissions equipment was removed to install a weber 32/36DGV carb ($365.00). Body is near perfect with no rust issues ( nothing bubbling from rust...even battery tray and flooring. Wears all original paint (white), some minor dents and scratches , needs brakes service and transmission is leaking, but runs well and shifts smoothly.

Pick up will be sold "as is"
New buyer is responsible for smog if buyer wishes to register in CA. Otherwise it will be sold as a perfect parts truck, which is what I had in mind to restore my original truck, see pic: Orange D-50. Or taken to another state which requires no smog for registration, Or restored to its former glory.

Feels free to google, youtube or wikipedia 1980 Dodge Ram 50 commercials. This will give the buyer an idea of what it looked like when being sold new, as well as general stats on the D50 line of Pick up offered by Dodge and Plymouth.

There is online support...its great resource if you plan to restore or need general help, please do a google search for:

Special Note:

The Pick on auction is in relatively good shape for its age. There is no evidence of any collision or structural damage. Please email me any requests for further pictures of any part of the vehicle. There are sellers on ebay that have all the necessary parts to restore it if the new buyer wishes to do it. Very few D50s are left in this condition. Most of them have been run to the ground. This would be a great project for a full restoration.

The pick-up will be sold as is with a bill of sale indicating that the car is being sold and disclosed that it cannot pass smog. It is up to the buyer to choose to use it as a parts car or to find all the emission parts to pass smog in California. Seller has some of the emission parts, but not all. See pics.

Buyer will need to have a flat bed or tow truck to take the vehicle home. The pick-up runs but the rear driver's side brake drum is leaking at the wheel cylinder. This poses a safety hazard. The truck can be driven around the block and up to the tow truck without issue.

Jay Leno gets his denim mitts on Dodge's new Challenger Hellcat

Mon, 04 Aug 2014

The 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat is definitely the performance car of the moment. The fact that in the near future, people will be able to buy a 707-horsepower muscle machine straight from a major automaker for $59,995 and with a factory warranty almost seems absurd. We drove it recently and found the Hellcat to be just as much of a beast as its numbers would suggest. Now, it's a certain comedian's turn behind the wheel in the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage.
This week's guest is Dodge President and CEO Tim Kuniskis, and he's there to drop all sorts of interesting factoids about the Hellcat. For example, its Pirelli P Zero tires retail at around $300 each, he says. That makes its smoky burnouts a rather expensive proposition. Kuniskis, who recently hinted at a mystery Woodward Dream Cruise debut, also talks about the genesis of the 2015 SRT project with a goal to get over some of the standard Challenger's weight and size disadvantages. The fix is a supercharged V8, massive brakes and other goodies to smooth over the platform's more glaring shortcomings.
Leno appears to get a big kick out of the Hellcat. However, he can't seem to stop bringing up his desire to drive one with a six-speed manual. They obviously exist, but Kuniskis has an eight-speed automatic for the retired Tonight Show host to try out. Of course, as with any Hellcat video, there has to be at least one burnout. Despite the expensive tires, it seems like enthusiast's law at this point - and dear ol' Jay wouldn't want to break any rules, would he?

Dodge Charger R/T NHRA Funny Car is ready to burn rubber at SEMA [w/video]

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

The Dodge Charger R/T is all set to rocket down the drag strip in NHRA Funny Car competition with a completely redesigned body debuting at this year's SEMA Show. While only the front decal, side scallops and rear logo really signal this racer as a Charger, that doesn't take away from its promise of hitting absolutely ludicrous speeds.
The engineers' biggest tweak to the body was moving the cockpit further back. This created more clearance under the hood, and the change came with added advantage of giving the driver better visibility out of the car. Composites like Kevlar also helped make the one-piece shell even lighter, while not sacrificing strength.
The new design has already undergone extensive time in the wind tunnel and real-world runs to make sure that none of the changes negatively impacted the aerodynamics. With those tests out of the way, the Charger R/T Funny Car will have the first chance to truly prove itself in NHRA competition at the 2015 Winternationals from February 5-9 at Auto Club Raceway in Pomona, CA.
