1977 Dodge M880 Military Power Wagon 1 1/4 Ton 4x4 Truck V8 Automatic on 2040-cars

Year:1977 Mileage:20371
Location:

Darlington, Indiana, United States

Darlington, Indiana, United States

 This is an original ex- military 1977 Dodge M880 model power wagon.  Odometer shows 20,371 miles not sure if this is original if it has turned over.  I would go with it having turned over.   Specific military model is a M887 which is part of the overall M880 military model trucks that the military uses from the late 70's to sometime in the 80s/90s. .  Truck is a 4x4 all time drive with a 318 V8 gas engine and automatic trans.  4:10 gears.  Vehicle does start right up and drive however I am primarily selling this as a RESTORATION PROJECT, not any everyday transportation vehicle.  Truck has a lot of rust as you can see in the photos.  Front fenders, doors, bedsides, and floor pans will all need attention.  Other than that if you just want an old Dodge 4x4 Truck for running around on the Farm or off road this truck would be OK for that.  There is no power steering and any other creature comforts other than power brakes so it is a bit of a beast to drive, brakes do work but are weak and will need some attention. These trucks were geared pretty low for military use so I would not count on it as an everyday transportation truck to run 60 plus MPH out on the highways.  If you are looking for a Military Vehicle to restore the Dodge M880 as a good cheap alternative to other Military Vehicles.  Easy to work on and get parts for.  I do have a clear title.  Selling this truck in as is were is condition with no warranties what so ever.  I have not driven this truck on the road since 2010 and had originally bought it for a parts truck for another Dodge M880 that I am working on but decided to not part it out.  Only thing I noticed is that when you shift into gear something in the drive train slams into gear rather harshly.  So not sure if it is U-joints or what.  However I do not notice any other noise once in gear and the truck is moving.  Missing the tailgate, front bumper is in the bed of the truck.  No other parts come with the truck.  Tires are bald.  Heavy duty reese hitch on the back.  Ask questions before bidding. Vehicle can sit for up to 30 days however payment in full needs to be made within 7 days.  Also need for the buyer to make contact within 3 days to confirm pickup plans and payment.   I work out of state during the week so prefer weekend pickup if you want to meet me in person.  Weekday pickup can be arranged but as noted I  would not be there.  Usually have my Dad to assist if during the week.   Thanks  for looking.

eBay Find of the Day: Viper Defender from '90s TV show

Fri, 24 May 2013

As car lovers, it's always hard to find a good television show with decent cars, but what the 1990s show Viper lacked in acting, scripting and plot, it more than made up for with cool cars. For starters, the lead car was a Dodge Viper RT/10, but, on screen, it was able to morph into its "Defender" mode making it an armored coupe with a full arsenal of weapons.
Fortunately, you don't have to be a fan of the bad show to love its lead car, and if you really want one, a Defender is up for auction right now on eBay. According to the listing, this car is the real deal - not a clone - and it comes with a V8 engine (not sure what happened to the V10?) and plenty of swag and memorbilia. No word on its actual asking price, but with a day left and 42 bids already, the reserve has not been met at $133,400. The listing does add that this same car was listed at Mecum back in 2010, but did not get sold, even with a bid of $270,000.

Watch these Super Bowl car commercials [UPDATE]

Sat, Feb 2 2019

On Sunday, February 3, the New England Patriots take on the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl 53 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia. Some will watch because of the storyline of the old-school dynasty facing off against the new-school wunderkinds, but a large chunk of people will solely be watching for the commercials. Lucky for those who slot into the latter category, many of the manufacturers release their super bowl ads ahead of time, or have simply opted to release the commercials only online. Scroll down to see what car companies have already shown their cards. Audi Audi goes the comedic route in its clip for the Big Game. It starts with a grandpa showing his grandson a gorgeous Audi e-tron GT tucked away in a garage before he's shaken awake. Turns out he was just choking on a cashew in his cubicle at his boring job. Dodge Dodge does what it knows: create enough smoke to punch more holes in the ozone layer. Set to "The Devil Went Down to Georgia (the Super Bowl is in Atlanta, get it!?), a Challenger SRT Hellcat widebody, Charger SRT Hellcat, and Durango SRT are seen ripping through a city, leaving a trail of rubber crumbs in their wakes. Genesis Genesis has not yet released a commercial prior to the Super Bowl, but it is the official luxury vehicle of the NFL. Because of this, Genesis is hosting a fan experience for 10 days before the game. It will showcase the brand's cars, offer games, and have photos opportunities and autograph days. Hyundai Jason Bateman alert! Hyundai is one of the few companies to hook a major celebrity for its advertisement, and the casting is perfect. Bateman plays a doorman who takes people to various terrible events in life, including root canals, the middle seat, and shopping for a car. The ad centers around Hyundai's Shopper Assurance, which is Hyundai's new method for car shopping. Jeep An old 1963 Jeep Gladiator finds its strength in the crusher and transforms into a a new 2020 Gladiator, with a firm declaration that the nameplate is officially back. Kia Through Kia's commercial, a young boy wonders out loud what it'd be like if the millions spent on Super Bowl commercials were used to help others.

Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat's 707 storming horses can be yours for $60k

Wed, 16 Jul 2014

We love a good deal on high performance. It's what traditionally makes muscle cars so appealing - you get lots of speed, for not a lot of money. For 2015, Dodge has taken this to its logical extreme, offering its new 707-horsepower, supercharged, V8-powered Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat for just $59,900. For those wondering, that works out to just about $85 per horsepower, which when compared with a typical budget performance car, like the $24,995, 210-hp Volkswagen GTI ($119 per hp), demonstrates the Hellcat's astonishing value.
The information was revealed by a photo (click on the inset image to expand) taken at this week's Portland launch event (our man Seyth Miersma is just now on the ground and will have a full report on the madness that is the Hellcat soon) for the entire 2015 Challenger range, and reveals the Hellcat's price alongside its high-powered competitors from Ford and Chevrolet.
The discontinued 662-hp Mustang GT500 started at $56,000, while the 580-hp Camaro ZL1 starts off at $58K. Indeed, the only muscle car that outprices the Hellcat is the track-focused Camaro Z/28, a car that we're guessing could still wallop the Hellcat on the right piece of track, despite being down over 200 hp.
