39,134 miles on the engine.

400 Magnum Big Block V8 High Performance Engine (Runs on Premium Fuel).

4 Barrel Edelbrock Carburetor

Dual exhaust from headers into red cherry pickers.

Rebuilt 727 3-Speed Automatic Transmission (rebuilt July 2013 by Moses Lake Transmission in Moses Lake, WA).

Electric fuel pump.

New Spark Plugs (March 2014).

MSD Laser Gauges in dash.

Aluminum and Mopar parts throughout.

Hurst Grip Automatic Shifter with Chrome Indy H Stick.

Rally Full Windshield Rearview Mirror (3 ft).

4 point harness black leather bucket seats with fold down center console and under seat storage.

CD Player/Am-FM Radio/MP3 Aux with amplified and high performance speakers.

Tow Hitch with 7-Way Plug (Wiring goes to under the dash, but needs a brake control unit).

Only 39,200 miles on the engine.

Kill Switch for the ignition system is set up and ready, but it is not hooked up. I currently have the MSD ignition system hooked directly to the battery.

This truck is awesome and runs like a dream, but here's a few minor things your should know about going into the bid.

The body of the truck is good, but it is not perfect. Take a look at the passenger side image you can see some minor dents along the door and truck bed. The back bumper is fiberglass and has 2 small cracks on it. The cap and tailgate have some holes and dents where a canopy was secured (see rear truck image).

There is a new float in the gas tank, but the new float is an old design that does not synchronize with the new MSD laser gauge. You will need to purchase another float to sync this up.

The gas tank is behind the seat. I am pretty sure it is 22 gallons. I got 15-18 MPG going 50-60 miles per hour on a recent trip of 2,800 miles from central WA, to southern CA, to San Antonio TX.

Going over the Cascade mountain passes (and all other driving) the truck never went over 2,000 RPM.

The drivers side seat has a worn patch on the leather.


This is a great truck and has plenty of power.

I have a reserve set on this truck. I hate going into a bidding scenario and not knowing what the reserve is, so I will tell you up front, my reserve is set at $10,000. I have well over $10,000 worth of parts in this truck, not including my blood, sweat, and tears and I wouldn't be selling this if my current situation didn't demand it.

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.

Dodge Journey gets more SUV-like look with new Crossroad model

Fri, 31 Jan 2014

Looking to play up its aging three-row crossover, Dodge will introduce a new model for its Journey franchise at next week's Chicago Auto Show. The 2014 Dodge Journey Crossroad will be a new trim level positioned between the SXT and Limited, and it will be distinguished from other Journey models thanks to a handful of styling add-ons.
Plucking a page right out of the appearance playbook of the Ford Explorer Sport, the Journey Crossroad gets a meaner, more SUV-like demeanor. The Journey has often straddled the line between tall wagon and crossover, but this new trim goes a long way toward skewing its visuals toward the utility vehicle end of the spectrum. That's thanks largely to the Platinum chrome exterior trim on its roof rails and side sills, unique fascias, smoked headlights and taillights and, of course, those black 19-inch wheels. Inside, the Journey Crossroad will get a similar treatment, with darker, Liquid Graphite accents throughout the cabin, and the model will also come standard with leather seats (which Dodge says are a new design), and Chrysler's giant 8.4-inch Uconnect screen.
The 2014 Journey Crossroad goes on sale this spring with a starting price of $24,995 (*not including $995 for destination) for the four-cylinder, front-wheel-drive model, but Dodge says that the model will also be offered with more power and capability from the optional 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 and all-wheel-drive. Scroll down for the full press release, and check back next week for our live coverage from Chicago.

Small number of 2013 Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger models recalled

Sun, 24 Feb 2013

A small number of units of the 2013 Chrysler 200 (inset) and 2013 Dodge Avenger are being recalled over a broken control valve in the fuel tank assembly. The potential 1,785 sedans were manufactured late last year, and if affected with a broken control valve could suffer from stalling or fuel leakage.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration notes that the recall should begin next month, at which time owners can take their cars to dealers for repair free of charge. The full release with more information is just below.
