This truck is being sold AS IS and must be picked up in Minden, Nevada within 30 days of auction end. It runs and yard drives, but has not been on the road in many years and will need to be trailered. Please ask questions before bidding if I have left something out of my description. It needs total restoration of all components and is missing whatever is not shown. In the late 70s they sold a lot of Dodge's Adult Toys including this all black Warlock Power Wagon 4 speed. I purchased from the original owner (still in Reno) a few years ago. It had been neglected and parked since the 90s. With a battery, fresh gas, and a fuel pump and filter, it fired right up. It is a 318 with a factory 4 speed, and 9.25 rear with Sure Grip and 3.55 gears. It still retained an original Carburetor, alternator, radiator, (fuel pump) and some of the hoses including the bypass. A very original engine compartment. I also changed the oil prior to starting. It runs and drives, but should be completely gone thru before driving on the road. It needs and deserves a total restoration, Including the engine, which has low oil pressure, and a small coolant leak at the timing cover but no unusual noises. Miles are unknown, it shows 12K and is at least 112. The original owner did not have any additional info or documentation. The body has a lot of dents. See pictures, and note the damage to the tailgate, driver's side cab, door, fenders, bumpers, chrome step grill etc. It still has it's original cert label showing a very late build of July 1978 and door vin tag. This is one of the last of the 78 Warlocks. Also note the placement of the Power Wagon hood emblems. Pushed back, and typical of the Late 78 utilines. You are looking at all original paint/stripes and the gold primer coming thru. The interior still has it's original black buckets, Tuff Wheel w/ 4x4 only adapter, and even original carpet, (cut to expose floors). The cab is as solid as they come with nothing but original black paint in the floor pans. The windshield and passenger side glass are damaged, originally factory tint. The truck still has it's four original 15/8 chrome slot wheels (same as lil red) and the original plastic center caps. It is missing the spare and the wood racks.. The frame is dry and straight with only the usual surface rust (even in the desert). The bed wood and strips are gone, replaced by plywood. The tires are ancient but hold air.

Chrysler recalling 644k more Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs over brakes
Wed, 02 Apr 2014Early last month, we reported on Chrysler issuing a preemptive, proactive recall for about 25,000 units of the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango. The issue revolved around a brake system that wasn't causing any actual problems, but delivered an unsatisfactory brake feel, so Auburn Hills called in a good 25,000 of SUVs around the world, including 18,700 in the United States.
Now Chrysler, having apparently determined that the brake problem on its sport utes is actually much bigger than it initially realized, has drastically broadened the scope of the recall. As a result, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for precisely 655,354 examples of the Grand Cherokee and Durango, covering the 2011 through 2014 model years. In addition, Chrysler is recalling 42,380 units in Canada, 21,376 in Mexico and 159,685 overseas.
The problem which Chrysler found revolves around the brake booster, whose center shell has been found to be subject to corrosion, allowing water to get into the brake system. That water in turn could freeze, preventing the brakes from working as well as expected.
2016 Dodge Viper ACR priced from $117,895
Tue, May 12 2015Fancy getting your hands on the all-new Dodge Viper ACR? Prepare to shell out at least $117,895, not counting destination or gas-guzzler tax. Those two add $1,995 and $2,100, respectively, for an out-the-door price of $121,990. That's $32,900 more than a base 2015 Viper, or the equivalent of a Challenger with a few options. As we explained previously, the ACR model doesn't do much for outright power – the 8.4-liter V10 offers up only five more ponies than before – but it does add suspension and aerodynamic upgrades that make this particular Viper far more potent on the track. The order books are officially open for the ACR, so if you've got the coin, get in touch with your local dealer. Until then, head into Comments and let us know what you think of the ACR's pricing. Would you shell out $118,000 for the ultimate Viper? DODGE OPENS ORDER BANKS FOR NEW 2016 DODGE VIPER ACR The fastest street-legal Viper track car ever offers a tremendous value for performance May 12, 2015 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - Viper enthusiasts with the need for ultimate handling, performance and road course domination, as well as the ability to drive their Viper home from the track, can now place their orders for the fastest street-legal Viper track car ever. The Dodge brand has announced pricing and opened order banks for the recently introduced 2016 Dodge Viper ACR. Unveiled last week at the revamped Conner Avenue Assembly Plant in Detroit, the American Club Racer model of the iconic, hand-built American supercar will have a starting U.S. Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of $117,895 (excluding destination and gas guzzler tax). "Bringing our street-legal Dodge Viper ACR back is going to arm our track enthusiasts with the ultimate weapon to dominate road courses across the country," said Tim Kuniskis, President and CEO - Dodge and SRT Brands, FCA - North America. "This is without a doubt the best Viper ACR ever. The latest in aerodynamic, braking and tire technology will ensure its legendary performance reputation around the world." Originally introduced in 1999 and last available for the 2010 model year, the Viper ACR has a long-standing legacy as the ultimate street-legal track car for club racing. The new 2016 model honors that performance legacy with significant aerodynamic and suspension upgrades, new Carbon Ceramic brakes with six-piston calipers and high-performance tires specifically designed for ACR.
Dodge Grand Caravan to live in fleets through 2017
Mon, Jun 22 2015After a hard-working career of hauling around families for decades, the Dodge Grand Caravan name was set to retire in 2016 under FCA's five-year plan for the US. The decision would have put all of the automaker's focus behind the next-generation Chrysler Town & Country, but that original strategy might have changed. Now, Dodge's minivan may have to work just a few more years before it can finally shuffle off. There are set to be 2016 and 2017 model year examples of the current Grand Caravan, according to an internal FCA production document obtained by Automotive News. This report suggests no changes in the minivan between those two years, and there's no mention of the company's intentions deeper into the future. "While we've announced the Grand Caravan will eventually be the minivan that goes away, we're not going into more detail at this time," a Dodge spokesperson said to AN. For the next Town & Country, production would start in Windsor, Ontario, in late February 2016. This document also suggests a brief run of 2016 Chrysler minivans based on the current model from August 2015 until February 2016. Automotive News speculates that the reprieve for the Grand Caravan could allow that model to focus on fleets and the Canadian market while the new Town and Country gets up and running. The latest generation T&C will reportedly debut at the 2016 Detroit Auto Show and will possibly carry a higher price to befit a vehicle with a more modern platform and improved tech.
