1986 Dodge D150 Royal Se Pickup, 318cu, Auto, Lwb Original, Runs Good , Exc.body on 2040-cars
Pineville, Louisiana, United States
Up for sale is my father in laws 1986 Dodge D150 Royal SE pickup LWB. He passed away in 1996 and this truck has been mostly sitting for long periods of time started occasionally. Less than 1000 miles have been put on this truck during this time. THE GOOD> starts easy, runs a little rough at first with a slight miss that goes away in about 5 minutes and then runs very smooth. No taps, knocks or unusual noises. uses little to no oil. All electrical work, lights, blinkers, brake and backup lights, all other assy. ok unless noted below. Body is very straight. with no rust thru (area in bottom of bed where water stood has rust thru, see pictures.) trim and chrome in good shape with one piece on tailgate missing. Carpet will need cleaning, but no tears. Seat is in good condition, (not original) from base dodge pickup. Not as plush as original. Has tilt wheel, pwr window work but are a little sticky from lack of use. Brakes work good, I think they were rebuilt around 1999 by the mechanic down the road but a little unsure of details. Fresh oil change. Carb. rebuilt by local mechanic a year and half ago (less than 50 miles ago) does not run hot. improvements needed> left rear tire looses pressure after time, rest of tires ok. Headliner cloth missing but backing is still there and looks ok. Needs shocks (bounces) New shocks included but not installed (in boxes on the seat) windshield cracked and needs replacing. carpet stained but may cleanup ok. Original wheels were badly rusted and were replaced with Jeep wheels and appear to work and look ok. Horn will need replacing, it tries to blow but has been sitting too long. windshield wipers need replacement. No jack and spare needs air or repair? Tailgate tricky to open. windshield wipers will not work, just noticed today and unsure of problem. A/C does not work (I have never seen it work) but the compressor is there. I have tried to describe this truck as best as possible. This truck has set up for a long time and may have other issues I am not aware of. I have drove it a little lately and I think with a little work and TLC it could be road ready. ASK QUESTIONS. If in the local area, come look and drive (just down the road, expired insp. sticker 2003, and no insurance or plates). Call me on my cell during the day at 318-308-5035.(poor cell service at home) This is still a pretty nice long wheel base truck and should have a lot of life left. If making offer, don't be silly I am not in the need for money and am tired of seeing the old truck sit around and not being used and would rather sell it to someone who needs it. Email me thru e bay if needed. If you live a short distance, driving truck home may be a option, if long distances, a trailer is recommended. Truck has been sitting for quite a while. Payment- 500dollars thru paypal required within 24 hours. Rest of payment CASH at pickup. |

eBay Find of the Day: 1994 Dodge Viper RT/10 with 504 miles
Tue, 26 Nov 2013It's typically hard to find early examples of the Dodge Viper that haven't been crashed or modified, but one eBay seller has a showroom-fresh version of the V10 roadster up for sale worthy of an eBay Find of the Day.
With just 504 miles on the odometer (according to the description and not the images) and "no defects at all," this 1994 Viper is a rare find indeed. Tack on the Buy It Now price of just $37,500 and it seems like a steal - especially when checking out the prices and conditions of other early Vipers currently listed on eBay.
Even after spending months ogling the all-new 2014 SRT Viper, it's hard to ignore the raw beauty of the original open-top model. From the three-spoke wheels to the calf-searing side pipes, everything about this Viper looks just the way it did when it rolled off the line almost 20 years ago. The seller even says that the top and windows have never been installed meaning there are no scratches anywhere on this car!
Hero gets his truck back better than new thanks to community support [w/video]
Sun, 29 Jun 2014You ever hear a story and start cringing before you hear the end because you know how it's going to turn out? That could very well have been the case with the story from a few weeks ago in West Valley City, Utah, where a 14-year-old kid stole his grandfather's Hyundai Veloster and took it for a joyride - through a park full of children. But instead it turned into a heart-warming tale of heroism and a community banding together to do what's right... and then some.
Bryson Rowley was that hero who identified the danger and, rather than sit idly by and watch the joyrider potentially run over a child, got into his truck and drove it into the menacing runaway hatchback. The collision caused some $7,500 to his 2008 Dodge Ram 2500, but instead of getting stuck with the bill - one which his insurance may very well have refused to pay since the crash was, technically speaking, intentional - his community pitched in a helping hand.
Bryan Ellison, who owns West Valley Carstar with his brother, saw the news on television and wanted to help. So he brought Rowley a rental car, picked up his truck and brought it back to his auto repair shop. People from around the community donated parts, and when all was said and done, some $15,000 of work and upgrades were performed on the Ram that was returned to an overwhelmed Bryson Rowley better than new. Watch the video below for the full story.
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.
