1978 Dodge Little Red Express on 2040-cars
Browns Mills, New Jersey, United States
Up for auction is my 1978 Dodge Lil Red Express. I absolutely love this truck I have owned it and driven it almost daily for the last year and was planning on keeping it for a very long time, but I am planning on moving and cannot take her with me.
She is a numbers correct 1978 Lil Red Express, 5th digit S in vin, bossing under passenger exhaust manifold is blank, and the front driver side bossing has the 8w which denots it as a pursuit 360 made in the windsor plant in 78 which is correct for the LRE. It does have a Holley 650 CFM carb which is non original but the 850 Thermo quads can be found to make it correct. The truck runs, sounds, and drives amazing Everything except the radio and the gas gauge work, the dash lights are temperamental but work most of the time. Heater wipers lights are all good. It is great as a fun daily driver. The rims are in pretty good shape could use a rechroming. The fact that it still has the correct rims is amazing alone. The floors and most of the body is solid. There is rot in the driver rocker and a few spots starting on the lower parts of the fenders which is common. There is rust in the upper front portion of the cab but the pinch weld for the windshield was replaced last year along with the windshield. Included with the truck is a replacement driver rocker and 3 doors with glass. It is eligible for QQ tags in NJ but It was my daily driver so I put regular plates on it. As a sentiment to how well it runs it has a good inspection sticker untill 2015 The title is clean and in my name from new jersey. If you have any questions please call me at 609 444 8638 or send me a message. Thank you for looking and good luck. Greg |

Mopar '13 Dart will roll into Chicago next week
Thu, 31 Jan 2013We think this officially counts as a tradition. Every year going back to 2010, Mopar has rolled out a limited edition version of a popular product from the Chrysler Group portfolio. First it was the Mopar '10 Challenger, then the Mopar '11 Charger, then last year's Mopar '12 300, and this year it will be the Mopar '13 Dart, which will make its official world debut next week at the 2013 Chicago Auto Show.
Limited in number to just 500 units, the Mopar '13 Dart is no mere appearance package, though the demeanor of the Dart will be murdered out with a gloss black finish, gloss black 18-inch wheels, a set of Mopar blue stripes and a mean-looking Mopar ground effects kit. Likewise, the interior is touched up with leather seats (a blue one for the driver and black hides for the passengers), gloss black and black chrome trim, blue accent stitching, a sport pedal kit and other Mopar interior accessories.
Turning our attention back to the mechanical bits, the Mopar '13 Dart comes with the car's most powerful engine, a turbocharged 1.4-liter MultiAir four (shared with Fiat 500 Abarth) that's paired with a manual transmission. Those big, black wheels get wrapped in low profile 225/40R18 performance tires, and keeping everything in check is an upgraded brake kit with slotted rotors. The steering has also been calibrated for performance, the suspension lowered seven millimeters, and the exhaust tuned for better engine breathing.
Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat in the works
Fri, 25 Jul 2014In Autoblog's recent First Drive of the 2015 Challenger SRT with the 707-horsepower Hellcat V8 we found its engine to be as brutally powerful as the numbers would suggest, even if it wasn't the best handler. However, the muscle-car-styling just isn't right for some buyers that need four doors and proper rear seats to haul around the family. It appears that Dodge has their backs, though, because the Hellcat is very likely on its way into the Charger in the near future. Imagine the looks on your passengers' faces when you stomp down on the throttle.
According to Road and Track, when Dodge submitted the Hellcat for engine power certification to the Society of Automotive Engineers, the company included the Charger on the paperwork. That showed that the automaker wanted the engine checked out for the sedan, too. R&T reckons the 707-hp Charger would hit the road about a year from now, clearing the Challenger for a year of exclusivity with the powerplant.
When the Charger SRT Hellcat does hit the road, it may carry a very special accolade. Assuming nothing beats it in the meantime, it might be the world's highest horsepower production sedan. Think on that for a second. Even a Mercedes S65 AMG only has 621 horsepower, though a good bit more torque at 738 pound-feet to the Dodge's 650 lb-ft. So while the beastly engine is getting put into other models, where else would you like to see it? The Ram? Grand Cherokee? Let us know in Comments.
