1979 Dodge Little Red Express on 2040-cars
Altamont, New York, United States
|
This is a 1979 Dodge Little Red Express. Made only in 1978 and 1979, this special model has unique trim and came equipped with the 360 interceptor engine. When introduced, it had the fastest quarter-mile time of any american car tested. This one is very restorable, and should be a fun winter project. These are really beautiful trucks and lots of fun to drive. Although the floor of the cab is badly rusted, much of the truck is in fine condition. It has relatively few miles, and the engine makes good oil pressure. This truck runs. It can be driven on and off a trailer and runs well enough to demonstrate that the transmission and other running gear is working properly. It has been in storage for several years and the buyer should recognize that this is not a hop-in-and-drive-off truck. Included in the purchase of this truck is a bucket seat set with console, and a set of 4 slotted wheels which I believe are correct original parts for the Little Red Express. I acquired this truck when my father passed away, and can provide all the necessary papers for legal transfer of ownership. This truck has a clear New York State tittle.
If you have any questions about this truck contact me, and I'll do my best to get you answers. Pick-up and shipping are the responsibility of the buyer. I have many parts for these late 70's dodge trucks, including another Little Red (with a serial number only 5 digits off from this one!) Check my other items to see that truck. |

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.
Chrysler recalling 49K Chargers for headlight components
Fri, 14 Mar 2014Chrysler has issued a recall for about 49,375 2011 and 2012 Dodge Chargers with halogen headlamps due to a problem with the lights. The automaker says that there could be an issue with the jumper harness and other related components.
The automaker says that 43,450 cars are affected in the US, 2,850 in Canada, 375 in Mexico and 2,700 outside of North America. The vehicles will have their headlight assemblies, including the jumper harnesses and bulbs, inspected and potentially replaced. Dodge says that its engineers investigated reports of that were similar to what was found when it recalled about 10,000 police Chargers in 2012 for overheating light components. There have been no injuries or accidents related to fault, according to Chrysler.
The automaker will be in contact with affected owners, and schedule the service. Naturally, any repairs will be free of charge. Scroll down for the company's full announcement.
2015 Dodge Charger configurator opens up shop
Thu, Dec 11 2014Itching to get your hands on a new 2015 Dodge Charger? Your day is almost nigh, my friend While you're waiting, you can spec out how you'd want your muscle sedan to look as Dodge has included the revised four-door in its online configuration tool. Though it's not the most impressive or interactive of configurators we've seen, the site lets you choose any color you want (from the limited array available anyway) along with all the key options packages and such. First you'll need to choose a trim level though, but we're afraid the Hellcat version isn't part of this site, and the SRT site hasn't launched a configurator yet for the world's fastest production sedan, so you'll have to choose between SE, SXT and R/T trim levels.
