1971 DODGE D-200 SWEPTLINE

 

THIS TRUCK IS THE BAD OF THE BAD.

DARE TO BE DIFFERENT, HOW MANY CHEVY AND FORDS DO YOU SEE COMPARED TO A DODGE....

THIS BABY IS A REAL HEAD TURNER. IT STARTED LIFE AS A BARN FIND OUT OF GEORGIA.  AS A ONE-TON TRUCK.  I THEN PURCHASED A 1991 DODGE TRUCK AND SWAPPED THE MOTOR, THE REAR END OVER TO THE 71.  THE FRONT IS OUT OF A CROWN VIC, SO IT HAS DISC FRONT AND DRUM REAR.  IT HAS A C-NOTCHED REAR.  THE TRUCK SITS LOW, HOWEVER IS VERY DRIVABLE.  I KEPT THE ORIGINAL 4-SPEED GRANNY LOW TRANNY IN IT.  IT HAS A BRAND NEW CLUTH AND A PRESSURE PLATE IN IT.   ALL THE BRAKES HAVE BEEN REPLACED WITH NEW PARTS.  THE EMERGENCY BRAKES WORK.  THE INTERIOR OF THE TRUCK HAS BEEN REDONE.  SEAT RECOVERED WITH BLACK VINYL AND THE HEADLINER HAS BEEN REDONE TOO.  THERE IS A CUSTOM SHIFTER, HOWEVER IF YOU DONT LIKE IT, YOU CAN UNSCREW AND PUT IT BACK TO REGULAR.   THERE IS A CUSTOM WOOD FLOOR IN THE BED OF THE TRUCK.  WHICH HAS BEEN SEALED.   ALL THE LIGHTS WORK.  ALL THE TURN SIGNALS WORK.   THERE ARE NO WIRING PROBLEMS AT ALL.  EVEN THE CIGERETT LIGHTER WORKS.   THE ONLY THING THIS TRUCK IS MISSING IS THE FUEL GAGE AND SPEEDODOMETER CABLE.

 

THIS TRUCK RUNS AND DRIVES STRAIGHT.  IT IS DEFINATELY A HEAD TURNER. IT IS FAST AND LOUD!

IF YOU HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK.

2013 Dodge Charger SRT8 Super Bee

Tue, 12 Mar 2013

I can pinpoint the exact moment when I fell in love with this car. It was starting down a nearly straight entrance ramp at 15 miles per hour when I buried the throttle. In a moment, I was thrown back into my seat as the big SRT8's engine came to life with commensurate sound, fury and force, bringing me up to 75 mph in what felt like two blinks of an eye. This thing feels so much quicker than its 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque would lead you to believe. And mashing the right pedal never, ever gets old.
But beyond sheer speed, I found a whole lot to like about the Charger SRT8 during my week with the Pitch Black test car here in Detroit. And while the whole Super Bee kit isn't really my style, it's really easy to overlook those badges for a package that offers so much for so little.

Chrysler recalling 780k minivans over fire risk

Fri, 09 May 2014

Chrysler is recalling 780,000 of its Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans from the 2010 to 2014 model years due to the possibility of circuits overheating, which can lead to a fire. Of the 780,000 total vans being recalled, Chrysler estimates that 644,850 are in the US, 106,980 are in Canada, 8,009 are in Mexico, and 20,638 are in other markets. All of the affected vehicles were built between August 25, 2010 and October 31, 2013.
Chrysler's engineers discovered that beverage spills or exposure to moisture (from rain, snow, car washes, and the like) were linked to circuits shorting in the window switch assembly. Short circuits can overheat, and thus, cause a fire.
Chrysler will contact owners and let them know when they may schedule service, at which point, the window switches will be replaced. In the interim, the automaker says that owners may visit their dealers after May 14 to have the switches disconnected.

2015 Dodge Challenger gets 6.4L 485-HP V8 Scat Pack

Thu, 17 Apr 2014

While it's not seeing the drastic facelift of its brother, the Charger, at the 2014 New York Auto Show, the 2015 Challenger is packing some upgrades of its own. It wears even more retro-inspired styling cues, and there are new 6.4-liter Scat Pack and Shaker trims.
If you thought the Challenger looked retro before, Dodge is taking things even farther with inspiration for the refresh coming from the iconic 1971 model. Up front, it has a new split grille, a larger power bulge in the hood and projector fog lights. At the rear, the classic inspiration continues with split LED taillights with Gloss Black trim, and a rear valance panel redesigned to make the 2015 model look wider and lower.
The '71 motif is carried inside as well with a high-sill center console and aluminum gauge bezels. There's still more than a touch of modernity, with an available 8.4-inch Uconnect infotainment system and 7-inch customizable display between the retro-inspired speedometer and tachometer. For better safety, the Challenger is also now available with forward collision warning, adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring and rear cross path detection. Stability control and electric power steering are standard across all models too.
