- 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.

It ain't easy keeping a Hellcat steady at 170 mph on ice
Mon, Mar 28 2016The Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat you see hit the ice at Arsunda Speed Weekend in Sweden, over two hours north of Stockholm. It's said to be bone stock, save for the studded tires that help it grip on ice. But it apparently takes more than some steel studs and a lead foot to keep it pointed the right way. Just look at how much driver Alx Danielsson has to saw at the wheel to keep the Hellcat from veering off course. Fortunately he seems to have the chops to do so, being not only a native of Sweden (and therefor imbued from birth with otherworldly abilities to drive on ice) but also having won the highly competitive Formula Renault 3.5 Series championship back in 2006. In the end Danielsson hit a top speed in excess of 170 miles per hour, touted as some sort of record, however unofficial (and specific to Dodge Challengers). That's a fair bit shy of the 205 mph that Bentley achieved in the Continental Supersports, but while that model had slightly less power than the Hellcat, it did have the benefit of all-wheel drive – something that could make all the difference in these kinds of slippery conditions.

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles: The next five years
Tue, 06 May 2014Unless you've been living under a rock for the past 24 hours, you've no doubt read about all of the big future product news coming out of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles today. We had individual brand reports from Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram, Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Maserati and even Ferrari, but in the interest of simplifying and summarizing, we're going to list out the hard facts once more. Of course, with all of this still off in the future, there's still the possibility that a few changes will be made. But as of what we know right now, here's what's coming, and what's going away.

SRT partners with Bondurant for performance driving classes
Fri, Nov 6 2015Dodge and Bob Bondurant have announced a new partnership that will see the latter become the former's official high-performance driving school. The deal will see the Bondurant school's entire fleet of nearly 100 vehicles switched over from mostly General Motors products to Dodge Chargers, Challengers, and Vipers. It will give paying customers the chance to drive models like the new Hellcats and even the Viper ACR (for those deemed qualified to drive it) on the track in Arizona. The arrangement won't only benefit Bondurant clients, though. Anyone who buys or leases a new SRT model will get a one-day course at the school, including professional instruction on track. They'll have to pay for their own travel and accommodations, but the instruction will hopefully show more drivers of SRT vehicles how to handle all that muscle they've got at their disposal. DODGE/SRT PARTNERS WITH LEGENDARY BOB BONDURANT SCHOOL OF HIGH PERFORMANCE DRIVING The Bob Bondurant School of High Performance Driving Is Now "The Official High Performance Driving School of Dodge/SRT" - All customers who buy a new 2015 or 2016 model SRT will receive one full-day session of high-performance driving with professional instruction and time on the track as part of the Dodge/SRT package - Bondurant attendees will get to experience the full line of Dodge/SRT vehicles, including the Dodge Challenger and Dodge Charger Hellcats - Bondurant's entire fleet of cars is being converted over to Dodge Chargers, Challengers and Vipers - Non-Dodge owners can purchase racing instruction through Bondurant and experience their full line of Dodge SRT vehicles on the track - Racing participants who qualify will get to experience the Dodge Viper ACR, the fastest street-legal Viper track car ever November 3, 2015 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - New Dodge/SRT buyers grab your racing shoes and helmets – Dodge is teaming up with the legendary Bob Bondurant School of High Performance Driving to create "The Official High Performance Driving School of Dodge/SRT."
