1963 DODGE POWERWAGON M37 4x4 MILITARY PICK-UP, inline 6-cylinder flat-head engine, 4-speed manual transmission, high/low range, PTO, 24-volt electric system, older 9.00X16" bias-ply rough-tread tires.  This truck runs and drives but the brakes will need bled and perhaps some other issues addressed (they worked enough for me to drive the truck several blocks to the storage unit where these photos were taken.  The engine starts nicely with no smoke, leaks, knocks or other unwanted noises.  The steering seems tight and the truck was a blast to drive.  The truck comes with the original military-issued shop manual and operators guide.  The vehcile appears nearly rust-free other than some minor surface rust and one small 1" diameter spot on the cowl near the driver's door. 

ENGINE:  inline 6-cylinder -- appears to be the original, NO SMOKE, KNOCKS or LEAKS that we can detect. We just rebuild the carburetor for depenbability.

TRANSMISSION:  4-speed manually-shifted -- appears to be the original unit. Also has what appears to be the original 4-wheel drive transfer case & PTO mechanism (the wench has been removed by the previous owner). 

BODY:  2-door conventional cab pick-up with 6.5' "step-side" cargo box, all factory original.

PAINT:  repainted from original military ODG to fire department red with white painted cab top.  Only one small rust spot on cowl near driver's door.  Lot's of patina/character on this one, but a rock-solid truck, needing repaint, complete restoration or enjoy 'as-is'. 

SUMMARY:  This is a nice truck and it's rare to find a retired military Powerwagon that hasn't been completely beat up.  While this one shows wear and tear, there's a lot to like about this truck...it's a restorer's paradise, or it's perfect for the weekend warrior wanting a dependable truck to use on their farm or hunting property. 

DISCLAIMER:  NO WARRANTY IS IMPLIED...TRUCK IS BEING SOLD 'AS-IS'.  I ENCOURAGE INTERESTED PARTIES TO CALL AND COME VIEW THIS TRUCK IN PERSON BEFORE BIDDING AS THE SALE IS FINAL.  We can assist a trucking company with loading, but shipping logistics and expenses are the sole responsibility of the purchaser. 

CALL DARRELL AT 816-812-1965 FOR MORE INFORMATION OR TO SET AN APPOINTMENT TO VIEW THE TRUCK IN PERSON.

Ralph Gilles responds to Dodge rumors, says brand is 'here to stay'

Fri, 12 Jul 2013

This is why we love Ralph Gilles. While in Italy hanging out with a group of Viper Club members in Europe, the SRT boss took the time to respond to a question directed at him on Instagram in regards to the future of Dodge.
Recent reports have painted a bleak picture for Dodge, but Gilles defended Chrysler's full-line brand by stating that the rumors are, "all rumors, Dodge is here to stay! It may get more focused going forward but not killed!" The idea of a "more focused" Dodge brand could lend some credibility to reports that the Grand Caravan and Durango are on their way out, which would leave Dodge solely as a car, or car-based, automaker.

Jay Leno gets his denim mitts on Dodge's new Challenger Hellcat

Mon, 04 Aug 2014

The 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat is definitely the performance car of the moment. The fact that in the near future, people will be able to buy a 707-horsepower muscle machine straight from a major automaker for $59,995 and with a factory warranty almost seems absurd. We drove it recently and found the Hellcat to be just as much of a beast as its numbers would suggest. Now, it's a certain comedian's turn behind the wheel in the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage.
This week's guest is Dodge President and CEO Tim Kuniskis, and he's there to drop all sorts of interesting factoids about the Hellcat. For example, its Pirelli P Zero tires retail at around $300 each, he says. That makes its smoky burnouts a rather expensive proposition. Kuniskis, who recently hinted at a mystery Woodward Dream Cruise debut, also talks about the genesis of the 2015 SRT project with a goal to get over some of the standard Challenger's weight and size disadvantages. The fix is a supercharged V8, massive brakes and other goodies to smooth over the platform's more glaring shortcomings.
Leno appears to get a big kick out of the Hellcat. However, he can't seem to stop bringing up his desire to drive one with a six-speed manual. They obviously exist, but Kuniskis has an eight-speed automatic for the retired Tonight Show host to try out. Of course, as with any Hellcat video, there has to be at least one burnout. Despite the expensive tires, it seems like enthusiast's law at this point - and dear ol' Jay wouldn't want to break any rules, would he?

Watch Atieva's electric van outrun a BMW i8 and Dodge Viper

Mon, Aug 8 2016

A little while back, automotive startup Atieva drag raced its electric van, called Edna, against a Tesla Model S and a Ferrari California in order to compare its performance against known and revered mechanical athletes. Again, the Silicon Valley-based company is putting its prototype up against electrified and conventionally powered performance vehicles on the drag strip. Last time around, Edna, the Mercedes-Benz Vito van equipped with a 900-horsepower, all-wheel-drive powertrain, bested both of its foes. In that showcase, Edna was hitting 60 mph in a little over three seconds. Comparatively, BMW lists the i8's 0-60 time at 4.2 seconds, though Road & Track clocked it at 3.8 seconds, with a quarter-mile time of 12.3 seconds. The Viper does 0-60 in 3.4 seconds. Before you even watch the video above, you can imagine how it will end, as the retuned Atieva Edna rips 0-60 mph in 2.94 seconds. Atieva clocked the quarter mile at 11.3 seconds at 117 mph. It's worth noting that driver skill can have a lot to do with a car's straight-line performance. We've witnessed Viper's elapsing the quarter mile in well under 12 seconds, which means it should be quicker in this test than the i8, if not the Edna. Still, the performance showcased in the video is exceptional. To improve Edna's stats, Atieva says it has used testing data to fine tune its AC induction motors at higher speeds once it got low-speed performance locked in. After testing in the hot California sun, including the race you see above, Atieva drove Edna 90 miles home with range to spare. As for production plans, Atieva will put this powertrain into a sedan slated for sale in 2018. In the meantime, the company will keep testing and tuning its working prototype, and has even invited the public to put their cars up against Edna in future sessions.
