This van was custom built as a forensics van and still retains many unique features. Most notable, it has double barn doors on both sides and the rear. It still retains a working police spot light on the windshield pillar and a working on-board battery charger and minding system for times when it isn't driven regularly. The interior has steel paneling on the walls and is insulated. There are 110V outlets on the exterior of the van and it was originally wired for a generator, but I do not believe the wiring is still intact.

The van is equipped with the original 318 V-8 and automatic transmission which are both in good working order. Tires are good all around and the brakes feel good and work well. The alternator and battery have been replaced recently. And believe it or not, the A/C stills blows cold even though it has never been upgraded to R-134. For it's age, the van runs and drives very well, and I used it to drive across the country and back at Christmas time.

The van carries a clear U.S title from the state of Wyoming where I purchased it, but it is now located in Victoria, B.C. It was imported into Canada properly, but will require inspection prior to registration in B.C. It could easily be exported back to the U.S for an American buyer.

This is a very solid and unique van that is worth saving for the right person. There is minimal rust along the driver's rocker, but it is surface only and there are no holes or perforations anywhere. All of the doors are in solid original condition and the underside of the van in remarkably rust free. The paint is very faded and is starting to flake off. It has had one repaint that looks like it could be twenty years old. There are a couple of very small dents from use as a cargo van and one bullet graze on the front cowl from its' days as a police vehicle. The interior condition is what you would expect from a 30 year old work vehicle, but it still cleans up OK.

The possibilities for this van are endless. It could be used for parts, camperized, or restored to its' original state as a forensics van. It is also an awesome cargo van. I have never seen another one like it.

I wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere, but it can't be registered or driven in B.C. without inspection.

Payment in full is required within 72 hours of the end of the auction. The vehicle is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.

2015 Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack

Fri, 24 Oct 2014

We all knew That Kid. As a freshman, he was a big kid, overweight but surprisingly strong. Still, he was often picked on for his size. Then, he chatted with the football coach, who convinced him that his true calling was on the team's offensive line. After a season on the freshman squad and a summer of two-a-days, this mild-mannered, husky high schooler returned for his sophomore year as a big, imposing, solid piece of muscle. Needless to say, the same bullies that picked on him were praying he'd forgotten about them as a 10th grader.
That's the V8-powered 2015 Dodge Challenger. It arrived on the scene with a max of 425 horsepower and a bit of a weight problem. It completed its proverbial freshman year with a nice 2011 refresh, where the SRT8 was bumped up to 470 hp, but it still had some work to do.
Enter 2015, and fresh off three months of constant burpees and wind sprints, the newest Challenger is as big and powerful as it's ever been, but it's now got poise and potential, and my goodness, it's fun in a way that Dodge's muscle car has never been.

Dodge Vipers selling for $480k in China

Wed, Apr 29 2015

Want to get your hands on a new Dodge Viper? Be prepared to pay dearly. It starts at nearly $90k here in the US, but that's nothing compared to what you'd have to pay for one if you lived in, say, China. CarsNewsChina.com reports on one Viper available in Beijing for an eye-watering 298 million yuan – equivalent to about $480,000 at today's exchange rates and representing more than a 500-percent markup. Part of that premium comes down to the Chinese tax code that charges a reported 60 percent for anything with an engine displacing over four liters. And the Viper's, we needn't remind you, is more than twice that. It naturally costs some to import a car to China as well, but most of the rest is pure profit. The Beijing dealership reportedly gets the cars from dealers in California, has already sold three and plans to import several more. The dealer can also get you (or wealthy Chinese individuals) a Corvette Stingray for a comparatively cheap 1.73 million yuan (or $280k). Related Video:

Chop the top of your new Dodge Viper for $35,000

Mon, 21 Jul 2014

We have good news, and we have bad news. First, the good: It's now possible to get a brand-new Dodge Viper roadster, which is nice, considering we're in the dead of summer and many of us like wind-in-the-hair motoring. Now, the bad: This is not a factory option from the automaker, instead coming courtesy of an aftermarket company called Prefix Performance, and that means it's going to cost you some serious coin.
Called Medusa, this drop-top Viper was created without the knowledge or consent of Dodge, but that's probably fine because Prefix works with the automaker already for the final preparation of the American supercar, including paint. According to the company, the current, fifth-gen Viper was built with a convertible version in mind, so no chassis strengthening is required. From the looks of the somewhat grainy photos available, the conversion appears of very high quality.
Want one? Well, that means you're going to need to procure a Viper - Prefix has 10 units ready for transformation as it stands - and that's going to cost at the very least $102,485. Then, you'll need to write a check for an additional $35,000 for Prefix to surgically remove the car's roof. Thing is, for that kind of cash, a prospective owner could buy, among other very nice options, a Viper hardtop and a loaded Miata, or a Corvette Stingray convertible and several pockets full of change. Or, perhaps a new Viper hardtop and a used, first-gen Viper convertible?
