- Many of you may have seen "Big Blue" (A 1964 WM300 Crew Cab in bright Turquoise) listed last week.
- For those of you who did not, this 1960 W300 was my late Fathers pet project since I was born 42 years ago.
- He spent thousands of hours over 38 years creating it. And it truly reflects his very unique personality.
- PAINT AND TRIM - He went through a chrome stage and this has more chrome than you can imagine! From the Lug Nuts to the Gas Pedal to the head of the Shovel and Axe mounted in the back above chromed Bed Rails.
- He had a paint booth on the shops property and painted this many times until he had it just the right shade and quality. That was done when the engine was out in '85.
- ENGINE - He owned a small shop with some very talented mechanics that took the engine out and rebuilt in 1985. I don't have details on what was done except I know it didn't need the work but since he was going to completely restore it he had the boys down at the shop break it down and rebuild it.
- INTERIOR - The same cobbler that sewed the seats for the '64W300 did the work on the bench, headliner, door panels and carpet and it is the work of true Artist. - (Note: the pictures of the interior look like there are dents - there are NONE - they are reflections only)
- SPECIAL FEATURES -
- 12 volts
- Power Brakes.
- Locking Hubs.
- Late Model Instrument Panel.
- Custom Painted Gas Cans with Script.
- Chromed Shovel and Axe.
- 5yrs New Hardwood Bed and Chrome Bed Rails.
- MOST AMAZING FEATURE - This was never a work truck. It has no rust and has never been off road or run hard. He may have touched up a ding or two but the Truck is so clean and has been since 1960.
- To say my Dad Loved this truck is the biggest understatement I can make. He never stopped fiddling with it and drove only on sunny Sundays on the back roads of rural Oregon.
- If the '64 was his pitbull then this was his Yellow Lab. An Old Faithful that he could always count on to fire right up and take a run to the market or drive in a Parade or Car Show.
- My Father was such a Power Wagon fan that he bought and sold hundreds of them during his life but was never going to get rid of this one. He said there will never be one this nice. He considered this his personal one and it has never been for sale.
- I have been driving it for two weeks now, running non-ethanol gas in it and turning heads and getting compliments everywhere I go.
- I am so proud that my Father took such good care of this truck and to know that he touched and cleaned and painted every inch of it.
- It is a True Beauty and it is my Duty to find someone who wants to keep in their garage another 42 years and care for it as he did.
- Thank you in advance for your interest and I will be happy to answer whatever specific questions you have and take whatever additional pictures you want.
- Sincerely, Brad
- P.S. - Since it is so much work responding to all of the interest in each of these, a little heads up that I will be listing a 1942 WC-56 Command Car, a 1954 Willys Jeep, a very rare right-hand-drive Mitsubishi Jeep, a 1964 Jeep Pickup, a 1952 Dodge M37, a 1957 Dodge 601 open-cab (with enclosed cab/doors as an optional kit) and a Gorgeous 1959 Chris-Craft 18ft Cruiser/Ski Boat that pictures cannot do justice to. I look forward to finding homes for all of them because they are all one-of-a-kinds in that they were hand picked and cared for by a Man that truly appreciated what he had and knew how to care for those treasures with respect.

Watch a Dodge Viper driver show off his V10 all the way into a wall
Mon, Apr 11 2016Has there ever been a show-off video that doesn't end terribly? This video clip captured with a cellphone shows the driver of a neon green Viper GTS giving a fellow motorist a couple throttle blips to signify his intent – which seems to be to crash the Viper into a concrete wall as quickly as possible. It's not pretty. The mean machine seems to be a second-generation Viper GTS in Stryker Green. To our knowledge, no photos have surfaced of the aftermath, so we wish both the driver and their most-likely bruised ego a speedy recovery. Who knows, maybe the Viper is also salvageable.
Bid on the incredible George Barris Supervan in Scottsdale
Fri, Jan 22 2016Barrett-Jackson's upcoming Scottsdale, AZ, auction features the groovy Barris SuperVan, which came from the mind of car customizing legend George Barris. He even autographed the interior. Passengers enter the SuperVan through the hinged windshield, and once inside they can party in style thanks to the roof-mounted disco ball. However, occupants can't get too wild because the massive side windows don't leave much room for privacy. Barris built the van around a 1966 Dodge Tradesman A-100 with a three-speed manual gearbox and a 318-cubic-inch V8. Barris originally called the van the "The Love Machine," and it later had quite a Hollywood career. Its on-screen appearances included the '70s movie SuperVan, and a repainted version served as a Hill Valley Transit bus in Back to the Future II. After his passing at age 89 last year, Barris' creation might see a further boost in value. Barrett-Jackson doesn't offer a price estimate for the SuperVan, but we can't wait to see what this groovy vehicle sells for with no reserve. Collectors already valued Barris' work before his death. For example, his 1960s Batmobile, which was likely Barris' most famous creation, went for $4.62 million at a Barrett-Jackson auction in 2013.

It was used for many movies and TV shows after that, such as the Hill Valley Transit bus in "Back to the Future II," "Sea Quest" and the 1970 movie "Solar Crisis." The van has been completely restored to its "SuperVan" look and has since been signed by George Barris. Manual transmission.

Dodge Charger to slim down and run turbo four in next generation
Tue, May 31 2016The current Dodge Charger is getting long in the tooth. It was originally introduced in 2005 as a 2006 model. In car terms, that's an eternity, though it's been refreshed twice. Still, FCA US will keep the LX-generation car going, reportedly facelifting it one last time for 2019. After that, there are some bigger changes in store . Automotive News is reporting that the follower to the current LX Charger will lose almost 500 pounds and will once again offer a turbo four-cylinder. You might remember the front-wheel-drive four-banger Charger of the early '80s. The recharged sedan will be twin-turbo and it's going to use the 300-horsepower four-cylinder engine currently under development for the 2018 Jeep Wrangler, AN says. The target weight for the future car is around 3,500 lbs, while the current car has a curb weight of nearly 4,000 lbs. Look for it to arrive in the early 2020s. The new platform will have a touch of Italian flair instead of the Daimler-Benz flavor embedded deep inside the LX cars. It will be built on an extended version of the 2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia's "Giorgio" platform, according to AN. Dealers were already shown a styling-buck almost a year ago.
