It really hurts to sell this, but being in Wisconsin it just isnt practical and I hate to see it just sit all winter long. I purchased this from a farm owner deep in the heart of Wisconsin farm country. Heres the information the owner before me informed me of :
Odometer is currently a little over 31k miles. He told me this is original but I honestly cannot confirm it, but I believe it to be the truth so please read on.This is the info I have. The title shows 45362 miles, and heres what I found by paying for a report from vehiclehistoryrecord.com.

Title last updated before him in 1990.Then a duplicate purchased in 1996. The registration was renewed every so often after that. According to this gentleman, when it was renewed in 1990, the mileage was actually 25,362 and the DMV mis-wrote it as 45,362. And between then (1990) and when I got it earlier this year, they guessed that they might have put 4 or 5 thousand miles on it (hence the 31k now showing).These were straight forward, good old fasioned nice people in their 50's. The only used the truck for light farm work, hauling this or that when needed. I picked it up in person, and there was REALLY nowhere they needed to go with this truck and had many modern vehicles they could have used (they were WAY out in the boonies). I have no reason to think they were lying to me. He signed a statement for me, claiming the odometer statement on the title is incorrect, and I shall include that with this truck.

With that said, heres the truck description. Interior just amazing. No dash cracks, some light fading on the top door plastic skins. One very small rip on the drivers side seat from getting in and out, otherwise seat is just amazing. Inside door pieces, etc, nice and rust free. Interior all original except they put a cd player in it (which works, and has a remote). Body and paint is beautiful. There is one dent on the rear right box, about 10 inches high, and should be an easy pullout. Some rust on rear bumper, front is nice as well as rest of chrome. There is a rust spot under the front fender well as shown. You dont see ANY rust on the actual viewable truck body. Just some paint road chips as shown on the lower rockers. Engine area very nice, no rust/rot/etc. Very clean engine. Underneath has some light rust spots, but extremely solid.

Its gonna need brake work. They work, but I wouldnt do big hills or towing with them right now. I just got an estimate from the local shop, they figure around $300 to completely re-do the brakes including lines. Exhaust has a slight leak at the donut connection (what old 225 based Mopar doesnt!?). Tires are a bit weather checked, heck a couple might even be original. BEAUTIFUL original hubcaps. I spent 8 hours building those bed rails, hope ya like them :)

Ive been driving this all summer. No starting/running issues. Fires right off, runs beautiful. Everything works except fuel guage (probably a rusty wire), temp guage (looks like its disconnected under the hood), and left brake light which is just a ground wire. Had it fixed once, they did a shitty job and the wire broke back off just recently.

This is an all around beautiful survivor truck. I just cannot believe Im listing it, but family needs come first and we need a newer vehicle. Please keep in mind, its a 1985 not a 2013. Theres just enough little things to make sure you have an excuse to tell the ole' lady your gonna be wrenchin in the shop for a while. Please email with any questions.



Payment due within 7 days. Pickup/shipping arrangements completely up to the buyer. I can hold it for a week or two. But it needs to be paid for. I prefer money order for final payment, or cash if your coming to get in person within the 7 days. Or if you prefer paypal contact me first. $200 deposit is not refundable under any circumstances. Thanks for looking, and have a great week !

Chrysler celebrates 30 years of minivans with special editions

Tue, 03 Sep 2013

It'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.

Lackluster Dodge Dart sales trigger layoffs

Thu, 06 Mar 2014

Hidden amidst the overall very positive sales figures that Chrysler released earlier this week were a few disappointments, the biggest of which may be the Dodge Dart. While Dodge sales in general were down 11 percent from a year ago, the Dart's poor figures stood out from the rest - with 4,888 units sold, the Dart was down 37 percent in February.
It comes as little surprise, then, that the automaker has announced layoffs at its assembly plant in Belvidere, IL. According to The Daily Herald, Dodge will temporarily lay off 325 workers "to balance vehicle supply with current sales demand." Put more simply, there are more Darts than buyers at the moment...
We don't think the Dodge Dart is a bad car, but it's playing in a market that offers a few standout sellers, like the Chevy Cruze, Ford Focus, Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla. According to AutoPacific analyst Dave Sullivan, as quoted by The Daily Herald, "great incentives on the Dodge Avenger" are also partly to blame for the Dart's poor showing.

Brits recreate iconic Bullitt chase scene

Tue, 13 May 2014

Recreating the famous chase scene from Bullitt has become almost an art form in its own right. We've seen it done in a music video, with scale models and even in commercials. There are few films that are as defined by a single scene as the 1968 classic. Even if you don't know a single beat of the plot, the Highland Green Ford Mustang racing a Dodge Charger through the hilly streets of San Francisco is famous. It's so well known that the Silverstone Classic has created a homage to promote its celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Mustang at this year's event in July.
Filmed around the famous UK circuit, the short film generally gets the key points of the scene right. It even has a green Volkswagen Beetle that keeps reappearing, as in the movie. Unfortunately, its Steve McQueen stand-in looks a little too old for the role. While the video shortens the chase considerably, it's still great to see these '60s behemoths leaning and sliding around the track. Scroll down for a touch of nostalgia thanks to one of the greatest scenes ever in cinema - we've got both the recreation and the original chase seen from the movie waiting for you.
