1989 Shelby Dakota #1238 of 1500. Just painted factory Exotic Red. New reproduction graphics. New ProComp shock absorbers. New ignition coil and Hall Effect module. New cooling fans. New bumpers, front and rear.
We rescued this truck from a used car dealer after its former owner used it as a tow and work vehicle. This was a father and son project. We considered keeping it to match or white Shelby Dakota #233, but we are out of room due to other projects. It needs nothing to be driven, but needs the following to be perfect:
Headliner repaired:
Mirrors and grille painted
Steering wheel re-covered.
Dashboard cracks repaired
Wheel center caps (there is a seller on Ebay with them).
The engine drives and shifts as it should. Compression is between 165 and 170 PSI in all eight cylinders.
The radio stopped working (not original) could be a fuse, I will take a look at it, but as of now it is not working.
This was a nearly two year labor of love. We literally brought this old girl back to life.
Fully restored, these trucks fetch between $10,000 and $15,000. Ours can be had for roughly half that. It does not need that much to be perfect.
The truck is also for sale locally.
On Nov-22-12 at 06:00:48 PST, seller added the following information:
The reserve price is not that high. I will not sell for the starting bid price as the truck is worth much more than that. I am not desperate to sell. if it does not sell, I will keep restoring. The more work I do, the higher the price becomes. I also own a white Shelby Dakota and would not mind having one of each color.
Note: I am being asked questions such as: "Does the truck run?" "What does it need to pass inspection?" "What kind of rust repair will it need." This is not a non running truck needing restoration. It runs very well. It has just been painted. The body and underside need nothing. Other than the headliner, dash, steering wheel leather, fog lights and wheel center caps, it needs nothing. The truck also qualifies for collectors insurance and is currently insured that way.
Make a bid. I am negotiable. Please be aware that if your bid is accepted, it is a done deal.
I will consider trades or partial trades. Interested in Classic Beetles, Turbo Subarus and C4 Corvettes.

Chrysler recalls 350k vehicles over ignition switches
Thu, 25 Sep 2014Chrysler has announced a recall covering 349,442 vehicles due to ignition switches that can either become stuck or move without warning. All of the affected vehicles are from the 2008 model year, and were built before May 12, 2008.
The automaker has learned that ignition keys on some vehicles "may not fully return to the 'ON' position after rotation to the 'START' position during engine-startup," the company said in a statement. Additionally, "an ignition key may not fully return to the 'ON' position after rotation to the 'START' position and may inadvertently move through the 'ON' position to 'ACCESSORY' or 'OFF.'"
Chrysler says it is unaware of any related injuries, and notes that while reduced braking, engine or steering power is possible in such instances, the airbags are not affected. The later stands in contrast to General Motors' recent rash of high-profile recalls, and it's an important distinction that Chrysler (understandably) felt necessary to call out in bold print in its press release.
Mopar '14 teased, returns to Challenger
Wed, 16 Oct 2013Every year, Mopar selects one special vehicle from the Chrysler portfolio and creates its own, one-off, special edition. Previously, there was the Mopar '13 Dart, '12 300, '11 Charger and the '10 Challenger, and for 2014, this teaser image shows that the company will be giving the unique treatment to Dodge's muscle coupe yet again.
Mopar has not revealed any details about its '14 Challenger, though the brand's president and CEO, Pietro Gorlier, says that "This limited-edition ride is for muscle-car fans who love high octane and customizable performance." All we know is, it's white, has some blue stripes, and a black (or carbon fiber) rear spoiler.
We'll know more when the Mopar '14 Challenger is revealed at the SEMA show in early November. In the meantime, click the image above to check out the teaser in high resolution, and have a look below for Chrysler's official press blast.
Chrysler readying Hellcat V8 with Viper-like power
Tue, 21 May 2013A monstrous supercharged V8 engine could be in store for Chrysler and SRT products, if recent rumors are to be believed. Allpar is reporting that the forced-induction V8 - Chrysler's first, if this goes down - could make its debut this summer.
The story goes that the Hellcat would be based on a 6.2-liter Hemi engine, rather than on the existing 5.7- or 6.4-liter versions of the company's vaunted mill. In any case, the general consensus is that the motor will have gobs of power. Modest estimates call for between 500 to 570 horsepower, with some outliers predicting a figure as high as 600 hp. That figure would put the output would place the Hellcat awfully close to that of the 640-hp V10 in the SRT Viper, too. Allpar contends that a slightly lower powered version would allow Chrysler to keep costs below that of the more powerful Ford Shelby GT500, which might be a sweet spot.
The Hellcat could debut in a number of SRT products. SRT versions of the Charger, Challenger and 300 are all up for grabs, as is the rumored SRT Barracuda.
