1991 Dodge Crew Cab Diesel Cummins 4x4 on 2040-cars
Yorba Linda, California, United States
So if your looking for a first generation crew cab,this project this might be of interest to you. Its a 1991 that was professionally converted to a crew cab by Salem Kroger in Red Bluff California. The frame was cut and lengthened in order to accommodate the crew cab. All running gear is the 1991 factory gear. Mechanically the truck runs and drives good. The motor starts right up and does not appear to have any modifications done to it. It has the diesel version of the 727 three speed auto trans (no overdrive), it shifts smooth, records show it was rebuilt when the truck had about 46k miles on it. Brakes, drums, rotors, and master cylinder have all been recently redone. The cab, doors, fenders and hood of the truck are pretty straight but has peeling paint. The roof drip rail does have some rust issues on the front passenger side. The front doors have electric windows and locks with the back being manual. The interior of the truck is complete but not in good condition. The head liner is sagging, the front seat needs to be reupholstered, at a minimum the carpet cleaned, the door panels in the front are loose and need attachment clips. All of the gauges work, it also has an aftermarket boost and EGT and electric brake controller. The factory windshield wiper switch on the column and the horn do not work. The wipers run off a separate toggle switch. The exterior of the bed is also pretty straight but the interior is not in great condition. The truck has been used most of its life as a work truck for a landscaping company so the bed is well worn with cracking in several areas. May be able to be repaired or easier to replace. If you looking for a 1st gen crew cab it may be easier to start with this as most of the heavy lifting is done and is factory, rather than convert an old one. Thanks for looking and you can call me with any questions 714-394-2776.

Hero gets his truck back better than new thanks to community support [w/video]
Sun, 29 Jun 2014You ever hear a story and start cringing before you hear the end because you know how it's going to turn out? That could very well have been the case with the story from a few weeks ago in West Valley City, Utah, where a 14-year-old kid stole his grandfather's Hyundai Veloster and took it for a joyride - through a park full of children. But instead it turned into a heart-warming tale of heroism and a community banding together to do what's right... and then some.
Bryson Rowley was that hero who identified the danger and, rather than sit idly by and watch the joyrider potentially run over a child, got into his truck and drove it into the menacing runaway hatchback. The collision caused some $7,500 to his 2008 Dodge Ram 2500, but instead of getting stuck with the bill - one which his insurance may very well have refused to pay since the crash was, technically speaking, intentional - his community pitched in a helping hand.
Bryan Ellison, who owns West Valley Carstar with his brother, saw the news on television and wanted to help. So he brought Rowley a rental car, picked up his truck and brought it back to his auto repair shop. People from around the community donated parts, and when all was said and done, some $15,000 of work and upgrades were performed on the Ram that was returned to an overwhelmed Bryson Rowley better than new. Watch the video below for the full story.
2003-04 Dodge Viper recalled for sudden airbag deployment
Fri, 15 Feb 2013As if driving the old Dodge Viper (not the fancy new SRT model) isn't intimidating enough, imagine trying to wrangle that V10 beast and then suddenly having the airbags deploy. Yikes. That's apparently what could happen to some 3,660 Viper models from the 2003 and 2004 model years, and as such, Chrysler has issued a recall.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, part of the car's airbag control module may fail, causing the bags or seatbelt pre-tensioners to deploy without warning while the vehicle is in operation. That's a dangerous scenario in any car, let alone one offering insane horsepower a near-total paucity of safety nannies should things get squirrely.
Owners will be notified this month about the recall, though a remedy is not expected to be available until later this year. Scroll down for the full NHTSA statement.
Detroit's new fleet of donated police cars have safety issues [w/video]
Wed, 23 Oct 2013In a show of generosity in mid-August, Detroit's business leaders donated $8 million to the Police Department and Fire Department in order to buy 100 new police vehicles and 23 EMS ambulances. But now officers have discovered - and complained - that the police vehicles have glaring safety issues, Deadline Detroit reports. It is not made clear what models of the fleet vehicles - which include police versions of the Ford Taurus, the Chevrolet Caprice and the Dodge Charger - are affected by the safety issues.
Officers reportedly have complained that the Plexiglass partition separating front-seat officers and back-seat prisoners is easily breached, and that the front passenger seat is installed too close to the dashboard. Prisoners who manage to writhe out of their handcuffs can bend the Plexiglass and reach into the cockpit, and sitting too close to the dashboard can render airbags more dangerous and make officers more vulnerable to injury in a crash.
Mark Diaz, president of the Detroit Police Officers Association, received the complaints and reportedly said the vehicles would get safety updates addressing the issues. But Deadline Detroit reports that it checked some of the offending police cars and, as of the last few days, they hadn't been updated.
