1974 Dodge D100 old shop truck with awesome patina Well, here is a Dodge D100 shop truck for sale. It’s so ugly that it’s beautiful. It really has that patina that people seem to be looking for in a shop truck or rat-rod. She is a reliable driver – just bump the key and go. She gets a lot of attention – if you want stealthy, this isn’t for you. The truck runs and drives well with its 225 slant six engine and automatic trans. The brakes are power assisted front disc and rear drums and I would not hesitate to fire it up and drive it around the local community here. I drive it to and from the auto parts store and other local errands. Be aware that the tires are getting old and I am seeing cracks, so before any substantial journey, it really should be tended to. The set of 4 Cragar SS wheels are straight and have a matching patina. Note also that the windshield is starting to fog, so that should be in your plans. It has new brake lines. The dash gauges (fuel and DC ammeter) work fine and the previous owner added a 3-way gauge setup under the dash including oil pressure, water temp and volts – and these work well, too. The truck runs cool and constant temp and oil pressure. The dash is in ugly shape and there is no radio and the seat is covered with a simple cover since the original seat upholstery is falling apart – perfect. The horn button is a replacement and is mounted on the lower dash area – and yes, it works. Technically, she could use some attention. The frame rails are in good shape – could use a wire brush, and it should get floor pans on both sides. I have 2 pieces of sheetmetal in the floors now and I have seen the replacement panels as cheap as $34 here on ebay. I drive it as-is. Obviously, there is some rust here and there, but that’s what gives it it’s character. Operationally, the headlights, taillights, blinkers and even the reverse lights and tag light works. The right turn signal – you have to hold the lever in position – I presume it should get a switch at some point, but it still works. The windshield wipers do not – the motor works, but the wiper linkage needs attention; you can see the passenger wiper sitting on the floor in one of the pictures. The bed was originally wood plank (and you can see this from the under-pictures) but has a piece of diamond plate in the bed now. She has a clear MD title – and in some weird twist the MVA years ago had titled it as a 1970! So, don’t be surprised when you see that on the title – the VIN matches the door, the lock pillar and the title – all matching. The VIN decode indicates it is a 1974 model. As the auction states, this is cash only (other than the PayPal deposit). If you want to pay for the entire truck via PayPal, you can – but that requires that you add the PayPal fee that would be charged to me – about 3% additional. It can be picked up from my home in East Baltimore. If you want it shipped, I can meet your assigned shipping truck locally, no problem. |

California Highway Patrol powers up with Charger Pursuits
Fri, Jul 22 2016Residents of California, you'll want to adjust your rear-view mirrors and remain vigilant for the menacing maw of the Dodge Charger. The California Highway Patrol (CHP) ordered 580 Dodge Charger Pursuit cars to start replacing the organization's oldest vehicles. According to the CHP's director of communications, Fran Clader, these old cars are patrol versions of the Ford Crown Victoria, Ford Explorer and Dodge Charger. The cars will be delivered over the next two years with the majority equipped with Fiat Chrysler's 3.6-liter V6 engine. The unit makes 292 horsepower in the Charger and is found in everything from the Jeep Wrangler to the Chrysler 200. There will be a handful of Chargers with the 5.7-liter V8 found in the Charger R/T, but Dodge and Clader said they will just be used for training. Bick Pratt, head of FCA US government sales and operations, said the order represents a move back toward four-door police cars. "The CHP is ordering our Charger Pursuit vehicle to reintroduce the sedan into their patrol vehicle fleet," Pratt said. "That's important to us because it reflects a shift back to sedans by a progressive agency like the CHP." Chargers may show up in local law enforcement fleets. Pratt said departments will have the opportunity to also order Charger Pursuits through the CHP's contract. So wherever you are in California, if you see that famous crosshair grille in your rear-view mirror, be ready to pull over. Related video:
FCA registers 'Cuda' trademark, but we wouldn't get our hopes up
Fri, Jun 23 2017It seems Chrysler has submitted a trademark with the US Patent and Trademark Office for the name "Cuda," as first reported by Motor1. Fans of Mopar will instantly recognize this as the abbreviated name of Plymouth's classic Barracuda muscle car, which occasionally bared the shortened nomenclature. Though this might seem like a sign that FCA is considering a revival of the beloved machine, we wouldn't get our hopes up. See, rumors of a 'Cuda or Barracuda revival have circulated pretty much since the moment Dodge showed the modern Challenger and when it went on sale. And some of those rumors have involved the re-registering of the 'Cuda trademark, even as far back as 2010. Over the years, each rumor died a quiet death as time went on and no 'Cudas appeared on dealer lots. There is one rumor that's recent enough to still have a slim chance of realization, circa 2015 to be exact. It predicts a smaller Challenger-based car called Barracuda that could appear as a Dodge in both coupe and drop-top versions. However, we doubt it will come true, since FCA doesn't exactly have a large development budget, and we're not sure what the company would have to gain by making another sports car to sell below the Challenger. Odds are, it would cannibalize sales from the older, completely developed, and thus more profitable Challenger. Really, this trademark filing is probably just a defensive move for Chrysler. It will ensure that no one else can slip in and snag the name for their own vehicle. It should also help ensure that Chrysler has the rights to use the name on other products such as memorabilia. Sorry to crush your dreams. Related Video: News Source: US Patent and Trademark Office via Motor1Image Credit: Chrysler Rumormill Chrysler Dodge Coupe Performance hemi cuda
Dodge Dart Mopar '13 special edition recalled over airbag woes
Mon, 09 Dec 2013Dodge is only building 500 examples of the black-and-blue Mopar '13 Dart, but the majority of them are now being recalled. Part of the Mopar upgrade included replacing the stock seat skins in the Dart with black and blue Katzkin leather, but the seat-mounted side airbags were reinstalled improperly during the upfitting process, which could affect the performance of the front seat side airbags.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration bulletin, a total of 374 Mopar '13 cars are being recalled due to side airbags that might not deploy in a side-impact collision. There have been no reports of the airbags not going off, but Chrysler will still need to reinstall the bags to ensure proper deployment. The recall notice is posted below, which gives information for Mopar '13 owners to contact Chrysler and NHTSA.
