1933 Dodge Pickup, Very Rare, Full Restoration, Suicide Doors, Chopped on 2040-cars
Newport Coast, California, United States
|
Every once in awhile a RARE truck comes on the market this1933 Dodge pickup truck is no exception and its waiting for the right owner near Orange County, CA This gorgeous pickup has lots of first class
work and parts. A chromed, 3 deuce
carburetor set atop a 327 Small Block Chevy creating approx 300HP that is
passed through a turbo 400 transmission. A 9-inch Ford rear end with 2.79 gears
plants the power to the street and gets you cruising. Handles excellent at 80MPH. The red leather interior features tuck and roll design on the bench seat and through the door panels, even behind the seat. A custom dash with contrasting baby moon gauges dominates the cockpit while the controls for the aftermarket heating unit reside below. The exterior stance has been modified, 2-inch
chopped top (notice it was done so the back window kept it's original size), design elements and trim parts such as the red grille with the
original Dodge Brothers badge, steel wire wheels, hubcaps, and rear roll pan
all help keep the traditional hot rod vibe despite the obvious high-end
professional finish throughout the entire truck. The truck does not boast power
steering but a new aftermarket steering box, the goal was to keep it a fancy rat rod / 50’s style hot rod. Overall the truck drives and handles great (no play in the steering wheel) and the suspension feel is tight with plenty of stopping power. The tilt column is a new ididit and lokar floor shifter. The entire truck is steel and the body work
took over 7 months. No bondo and nothing but straight lines on all the door
jams/seams. 6 layers of clear coat later and the shine is memorizing. The front suspension features disc brakes and a dropped bell axle with leaf springs and shocks. The rear is leaf with shocks and drum brakes. This
truck is complete and rebuilt with love. This truck has been is insured for
$60,000. You can make a deal for $44,500. Comes with an extra set of custom offset new American racing 5-spoke (matte center with large chrome lip) wheels and tires. They are 2 inches larger than the current wire wheels @ 17"x7" rear with a deep dish chrome lip. This truck was purchased from the original
owner prior to being rebuilt, he was in his late eighties at the time - It has
quite a story. The old timer was a traveling salesman who made regular trips
from Seattle, Washington to New York City; he went through 4 engines on this
truck. When we asked him how many miles he thought were on it, he replied with
a straight face “at least a million.” A similar truck with a hemi sold for $62,500 - not a hard modification and brings instant equity. Serious inquiries only. We kept complete documentation on almost every part installed down to the spark plugs. Email: paul.c.simpson@me.com or call 949-244-2924 for additional information of to receive more pics. Thanks for looking! |

2014 Dodge Journey Crossroad
Thu, 17 Jul 2014Watchers of the auto industry will notice a theme among the formerly bankrupted American automakers, General Motors and Chrysler. There are the post-bankruptcy vehicles, and the pre-bankruptcy vehicles. The former, in the case of Chrysler, include the Jeep Grand Cherokee, as well as the 200 and 300. For GM, there's the Cadillac ATS, Chevrolet Impala and Buick Encore, among others. These vehicles have the freshest styling, with sharp exteriors and well-crafted interiors, as well as advanced powertrains and well-sorted chassis.
As for the pre-bankruptcy vehicles, they tend to be easy to spot. Most suffer from inferior driving dynamics, cheaper interiors, poorer fuel economy and often homely looks (we know, there were some decent cars before the bankruptcy, but they were pretty heavily outweighed by the bad ones). Think late, last-generation Chevrolet Impala or Chrysler 200. Increasingly, though, we're seeing vehicles that split the balance between pre- and post-bankruptcy. Vehicles like the Dodge Journey.
The Journey debuted in 2007 as a 2008 model year vehicle, meaning it should fall into the latter category. But heavily breathed upon in 2011, it now enjoys a new, 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, a big, critically acclaimed touchscreen display and in the case of today's tester, a new-for-2014 Crossroad spec.
Chrysler patents smarter minivan folding seats
Thu, 02 Jan 2014It's frightening to think of how quickly the mice would have overtaken us if we hadn't stayed one step ahead of them with better mousetraps. We'll never have to worry about that in our relentlessly re-engineered world, though. Case in point: Chrysler has been granted a patent by the US Patent and Trademark Office for an improved design of the already wondrous Stow 'n' Go seating found in the automaker's Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans.
Introduced in 2005, the Stow 'n' Go was improved in 2008, and based on the drawings of this third-generation improvement, the new design appears to allow stowage of the second row of seats without having to move the front-row seats forward as much. It look like it also involves fewer operations and moving parts, with a portion of the seatback being incorporated into the flat floor when the seats are stowed, as opposed to having a completely separate cover.
It's possible that the innovation may appear on the next-generation minivans expected in 2015, but Chrysler isn't commenting on the patent.
2013 Dodge Challenger R/T Redline revs into Chicago
Fri, 01 Feb 2013When Dodge released the Challenger Rallye Redline last year, it brought a new dimension of styling to the car's classic muscle car lines, but it was only available in V6 form lacking the oomph to back up its sinister appearance. To remedy that situation, Dodge is unveiling the Challenger R/T Redline, powered by a Hemi V8 engine, at the Chicago Auto Show.
Other than the extra cylinders, most of the R/T's Redline package carries over from the Rallye model including the custom-look 20-inch black chrome wheels with red paint accents, but the R/T version of the package gets more of a retro look to the side stripes with graphite graphics featuring Redline lettering. Cars equipped with the six-speed manual transmission will get a performance-tuned, low-restriction exhaust allowing the engine to produce 375 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque; cars with the five-speed auto are rated at 372 hp and 400 lb-ft, but they do offer a bright chrome Mopar t-handle shifter and steering wheel paddle shifters.
The R/T Redline Group is offered only on cars painted in Billet Silver, Granite Crystal, Bright White and Pitch Black, and it adds just $1,995 to the MSRP of the Challenger R/T (starting at $31,990) and the Challenger R/T Plus (starting at $33,990), which adds features like Nappa leather and Boston Acoustics speakers.
