In The Red
1995 Dodge Ram 3500 Turbo Diesel frame off restomod show go and tow, legendary Cummins 12 valve engine, a heavy duty (15 ton GVW) 9 Speed Eaton Fuller RoadRanger transmission which allows smooth shifts with little RPM drop between gears, 22.5 Alcoa Aluminuim Semi wheels with new 255/70 22.5 tires, 5200lb air bag helpers, 2 gal 12v air supply, marine air horns and 6" chrome stacks.
We started with a completely stock rust free truck then took it down to the bare frame and built it up with the modifications to get everything fitting then took it back down, stripped it to bare metal then sprayed the frame, suspension and underside with satin black industrial enamel then stripped the body panels to bare metal and layed on 4 coats of acrylic urethane red and 4 coats of acrylic urethane clear coat then it got color sanded and buffed to the brilliant shine you see. We built the engine with a complete engine rebuild kit then sprayed it and the tranny the same color as the truck. It is bored 40 over, has a rebuilt injection pump, new lift pump, rebuilt 215hp injectors with new nozzles (from a 97 truck), new oil pump, rebuilt head. The transmission has been fully disassembled and inspected and is like new as with the rear axle. It has all new front end parts including upper and lower ball joints, tie rod ends, idle arm, pitman arm, rotors, brake pads, rebuilt calipers and steering gear box.
We dropped one leaf spring on the rear to give it a somewhat smoother ride then added Dominator 5200lb air bag helpers mounted with extra heavy duty weld on mounts and heavy duty traction bars to keep the rear end from twisting from all the torque the engine and 9 speed make. Complete tow package includes 2" receiver and goose neck ball with electrical connector at the receiver and in the bed for a gooseneck and a digital trailer brake controller. The connectors are 7 pin spade type. The bed was sprayed with bed coating and got a thick rubber mat with a diamond plate design.
Extra power and cooler EGT's is generated with 215hp injectors, a K&N Cold Air Intake and a 4" inch downpipe into 6" Stacks. The injector pump has been turned up a little and it has a boost elbow set at 28 lbs boost. The pump and the boost can be turned up more or decreased by the turn of a few screws. The turbo housing and intercooler tubes are powder coated red and we added new performance boots.
The interior was completely gutted and rebuilt with a new OEM dash and black leather seats with red double stitch, new carpet and headliner. While we where in there we disassembled the AC/Heat cavity and cleaned the AC evaporater core and heater core. The AC also got a new condensor and filter dryer... blows ice cold like it should. It has a Alpine stereo/cd/usb with the stock six speaker system which works and sounds great. I just load up a usb drive and plug it in. It's a Laramie model truck with power windows and we added fold out power tow mirrors. The seat was power but we swapped that for a manual seat for reliability.
The 2gal air supply is a Viar 12v 140psi unit mounted in the bed that supplies air for the transmission, air horns and rear air bags. A double needle gauge at the dash monitors system air pressure as well as air bag pressure. We have an on/off switch for the compressor and an up/down swtich for the rear bags. The compressor has an automatic cutoff switch that we changed to a 110psi for added compressor life. We also added a quick connector air supply.
We added 2 new 31 series commercial batteries and moved them to the bed of the truck. Custom metal covers where made for the batteries and air compressor. It has Isspro gauges, Pyrometer, Fuel Pressure and Boost all on the pillar pod with it's own dimmer switch for the gauge back lights.
Now for the fine print:
This truck is 99% complete and ready to show, go and tow. Drive it anywhere. It runs great, the transmission shifts great, it has lots of power, it's very comfortable, the air works great and the stereo sounds great, it looks great as you can see. However, there are a few things that could be done to make it better. The fog lights, driver auto door lock and the cruise don't work. The tires are brand new and will probably last like, forever, but they're not premium tires and do not have a great ride. A set of premium tires would greatly improve the ride and drive of this truck. This truck is half pickup and half big rig and it rides and drives somewhere between a big rig and a pickup. If your interested in this truck because you want a great driving smooth ride then move on. On the other hand if your interested in towing around town or showing it off then go for it. The 9 speed RoadRanger does not have overdrive but the 37" tires somewhat makes up for it. The truck tops out at 78mph at 2800rpm's. This truck is something I dreamed about as a teenager and I did get it 99% done but health and financial issues are against me. Maybe your a dreamer and ready to finish what I started and by the way ... you can't tell it's not 100% percent by looking at it.
As of this writing it has less than 100 miles on it.
Purchased from an individual in the Baton Rouge area in 2011 in stock non running condition. Then we done the frame off restomod.
The high bidder is responsible for delivery. I will be glad to help the shipper get it loaded. Paypal payment of $500 due within 2 days and balance in cash within 7 days.
If your interested in bidding on this truck I urge you to come by and check it out in person. Call Robert at 601-620-3118.

Chrysler banks $507 million in Q2, trims 2013 earnings forecast
Tue, 30 Jul 2013Chrysler has some good news and some bad news. First, profits were up 16 percent over the second quarter of 2012, bringing the Auburn Hills, Michigan-based manufacturer $507 million on the back of strong demand for trucks and SUVs (a recurring theme this quarter, particularly in the US). Q2 revenue was up as well, from $16.8 billion in 2012 to $18 billion in 2013. The bad news is that the Pentastar's overall earnings forecast for net income in 2013 has been trimmed from $2.2 billion to between $1.7 and $2.2 billion, according to Automotive News.
In addition to the adjusted net income forecast, Chrysler tweaked its operating profit from $3.8 billion to between $3.3 and $3.8 billion. This has gone largely unexplained by Chrysler, perhaps hoping the news of a three-percent increase in its transaction prices for Q2 will allow it to sweep this adjustment under the rug.
The star of the show for Chrysler has been its US sales, which saw a 10-percent jump, both bettering the industry average of eight percent and improving over the same stretch of 2012. As with the increase in transaction prices, Chrysler has the new Ram pickup and Jeep Grand Cherokee to thank. Perhaps most worrying from this report, though, is that every brand in the automaker's stable saw an increase in sales... except for the Chrysler brand itself.
2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat revealed [UPDATE]
Wed, 13 Aug 2014Almost immediately after we drove the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, we began wondering: what's next? Pumping 707 horsepower into the Challenger seemed so crazy - and so intoxicating - we just assumed that Dodge would try that trick again.
Rumors swirled about a Charger Hellcat. Frankly it makes even more sense than the Challenger version. The Charger is a bigger car, and Dodge has never been shy about dropping monster engines under its hood. Hell (cat), we've seen Charger mules running around town that appeared to be the super sedan.
And finally, it's here. The 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat was revealed today at a preview event near Detroit, and it will be a centerpiece of the Chrysler display this weekend at the Woodward Dream Cruise.
Rare Dodge Shelby Dakota is a very '80s sport truck
Fri, Jun 3 2016The late-great Carroll Shelby built an incredibly successful career of making all sorts of cars faster, more often than not, with a bigger or more potent engine under the hood. The icons are well known—legends like the Shelby Cobra, GT350 Mustang, and the big GT500. But by the 1980s, Shelby was plying his trade over at Chrysler, at the behest of chairman Lee Iacocca, churning out special editions like the Dodge Shelby Charger, zippy CSX, rorty GLHS, and this—the 1989 Shelby Dakota muscle truck. 1,500 of these racy pickups were built for just one year and a whole two-and-a-half decades later they still turn heads. This one especially. The spotless pickup recently turned up for sale online , and its odometer reads a claimed 25,307 miles. So what makes these rarified work trucks special? As with most Shelbys, it starts under the hood. Up until 1989, the standard Dodge Dakota pickups were offered in only four-cylinder and V6 variants. But Dodge (and Shelby) wanted more, so the larger 5.2-liter Magnum V8 from Dodge's full-size pickup was shoehorned into the midsize Dakota, albeit not effortlessly. To fit, Dodge had to swap the V8's belt-driven fan for an electric unit mounted in front of the radiator. That did the trick, as well as earned the V8 a few extra ponies, pushing the special Dakota up to 175 horsepower and 270 lb.-ft. of torque. That performance may sound paltry by today's standards, but in 1989 it was seen as quite sporty, and netted a zero to 60 mph dash in 8.5 seconds. A four-speed automatic with lockup torque converter transmitted that power to the rear wheels. Additional Shelby performance goodies included a limited-slip differential, transmission cooler, along with a host of eye-catching body mods, including a unique air dam and bumpers, Shelby floor mats, monogramed seats and door panels, a "CS" steering wheel, 15-spoke hollow alloy wheels, and shouty body graphics. While the Shelby Dakota didn't return for 1990, its V8 legacy did continue, and in 1991 the 5.2-liter eight-cylinder became an option on new Dakotas. Of the 1,500 Shelby Dakota pickups built, 860 were dressed in red while a rarer 640 came adorned in Bright White. This '89 is said to be #245 of those white trucks, sold new to its original (and sole) owner in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, for $15,985 (the Shelby package cost $3,933 in its day). Currently, it's demanding bids north of $10,000 for its low-mileage originality. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.
