 I have for sale a 1985 Dodge Ram D-150 Royal SE for sale. This is a short and wide, meaning it is a regular cab short box. It has A/C (doesn't work, all parts present), cruise, tilt, intermittent wipers, and upgraded factory cassette radio (with a tape stuck in there) with five speakers. It has a new 360ci engine (10,000 miles on it) with an edelbrock aluminum four barrel intake and stock carb, new water pump, fuel pump, alternator, belts, hoses, plugs, motor mounts, and Mopar performance ignition. The engine has headers and new exhaust with a high flow cat and flow through muffler. I have lowered it, replaced all four shocks, rebuilt the front end (except for tie rod ends), added front and rear sway bars and installed all new brakes. It has the HD 727 trans and stock high stall converter with new filter and fluid along with new u-joints. I swapped out the 8 1/4 rear end for a 9 1/4 with a LSD, it does wine at about 35 mph and stops around 45-50 mph and has never given me any problems. The engine has a couple of leaks, and sometimes is hard to start after it is warmed up. Body is in real good shape, with a couple of dents here and there, a scrap on the pass side fender and the pass side turn signal is broken. It does have a little surface rust on the areas where the paint has been burned off by the sun and the road spray has hit the 1/4 panels, but no holes anywhere or heavy scale. The bed does have 1/8 holes drilled around the top edge where a old school tonneau cover was installed. The seat and carpet does have the normal rips/tears from old age and wear. I also have all the stock emission parts that were removed and will be included in the sale. The wheels (all four) are the stock wagon wheel style and it does have the spare currently installed, tires are not the best but do hold air and could get a some more miles out of them. The truck is located in Mountain Home ID, and is sold as-is, where is and no warranty or grantee is implied or offered. I know I have forgot something as I have replaced a ton of parts. I have been working on this truck for about 5 years now, it's been a great little truck and I have had some fun times cruising around in it and using it as my daily driver and will miss it!! I have clean title in hand. I can take more pics of any other area you would like too. I also have an extra grill, tonneau and a Mar-K metal roll pan for extra. NO scams!!!

Junkyard Gem: 1978 Dodge Tradesman Custom Van

Fri, Nov 4 2016

The custom-van craze was huge in California, back in the 1970s, and plenty of folks who would never have considered getting zonked on Acapulco Gold while listening to Elephant's Memory ended up buying Econolines and Beauvilles and Tradesmen with shag carpeting, bubble windows, and wild graphics. In fact, van buyers could get that stuff right from the factory. Most of those vans are gone now, but I found this used-up '78 Dodge in a self-service wrecking yard in California's Central Valley. Owners of custom vans felt strongly about their rides back in the Malaise Era. This one has the look of a vehicle that was used for beer-and-burned-meat-heavy tailgate parties at Oakland Raiders games. Such service is rough on a van. Try to picture this interior when it was new and plush, not the way it looks now. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

What's the deal with Chrysler demanding colleges crush their Vipers? [w/video]

Fri, 07 Mar 2014

Students and teachers at a Washington community college are up in arms following an order from Chrysler that it must destroy the pre-production Dodge Viper that was donated to the school's automotive technology program ten years ago.
The Viper in question is said to be the fourth off the production line, based on its VIN, and has had its emissions controls disabled, allowing its ten-cylinder engine to produce 600 horsepower, according to a report from Yahoo! Autos. As one of the first Vipers ever produced, the school's AT instructors claim it could be worth $250,000 in a museum, while a local news report purports that Jay Leno once tried to purchase the car, but the sale was prevented by Chrysler.
As pointed out by our friends at Autobytel, though, there are a lot of things in this story that don't quite add up. Immediately noticeable from the news report embedded below - which shows the car at South Puget Sound Community College - is that the car in question is not a 1992 model. When the Viper went on sale in 1992, it was only available as an RT/10 with a (flimsy) soft top, like the red car shown above. But the car featured in the report from KING5 News (inset image) is clearly a hardtop Viper GTS, which didn't enter production until 1996. And even if, as reported by a local newspaper, the hardtop featured is a prototype, it doesn't explain the lack of another iconic feature of the first Vipers - their distinctive side pipes. This kind of pokes holes in the school's argument that this is the fourth Viper to ever roll down the line. At best, this appears to be a pre-production Viper GTS.

Stellantis reports $15B profit in first year of merger

Wed, Feb 23 2022

FRANKFURT, Germany — Automaker Stellantis said Wednesday that it made 13.4 billion euros ($15.2 billion) in its first year after it was formed from the merger of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and PSA Group. The earnings nearly tripled profits compared with its pre-merger existence as two separate companies, as the maker of Jeep, Opel and Peugeot vehicles exploited cost efficiencies from combining the businesses. The result compared to a combined 4.79 billion euros for the separate companies in 2020 before the merger, which took effect on Jan. 17, 2021. Revenue for the combined business rose 14%, to 152 billion euros. CEO Carlos Tavares said the results “prove that Stellantis is well positioned to deliver strong performance" and had overcome “intense headwinds” during the year. Automakers have struggled with shortages of key parts such as semiconductor electronic components and rising costs for raw materials as the global rebound from the worst of the coronavirus pandemic brings more demand. The company said the benefits of the merger were worth some 3.2 billion euros during the year. Mergers can lead to streamlined costs as companies combine functions and spread fixed costs over a larger revenue base. The company accelerated its rollout of battery-powered vehicles, with sales of low-emission vehicles reaching 388,000 — an increase of 160%. Stricter environmental regulations in Europe and China are pushing automakers to roll out more electric vehicles with longer range. Stellantis started production of a hydrogen fuel cell commercial van under its Opel brand in December. Stellantis' other brands include Chrysler, Citroen, DS, Fiat, Maserati, Ram and Vauxhall.
