(VIN: 1B7KM26C3PS119086)

This vehicle is a “MADE IN USA” 1993 INTERCOOLED 12-valve Cummins (many made in Mexico, the factory sticker will show legal MADE IN USA). With the exception of the $3000 NV-4500 5-Speed transmission upgrade, it sits basically stock, as it came from factory.  It has added a high quality $1200 sun/moon roof!

 

HIGHLIGHTS!

Dodge Ramcharger 250 CUMMINS (4WD; W250; DANA 70 REAR / DANA 60 FRONT TRANSAXLES). Also, front manual locking hubs – Highly Desirable!

Both DANA Front/Rear have fresh royal purple 90/75 and 90/145 fluids.

RARE Single Cab Long Bed; 5 – SPEED Manual Transmission, with New South Bend Clutch.

Very Clean. Chassis (Rocker Panels, Floor Boards, Bed… 100% Rust Free.

It also has added safety feature, KDP (Killer Dowel Pin) Tab installed.

Headliner is original with a little slack.

Never ever had a 5th wheel and used primarily for light duty.

 

·       Many new parts including Borgeson steering column upgrade and rebuilt steering box; alternator; new brake boost/ master cylinder; new wheel bearings and grease seals on front axle; within last three months, new fuel filter, K&N Air Filter and oil change (Rotella Diesel Oil).

·       All 100% functional holding 2015 Virginia Inspection. Heater Block chord/element works and it is fully functional. Glow plugs etc are great and starts in cold on a dime. That’s with no block heater ever even used.


Issues:

New windshield needed ! Recent hairline crack, see photo.

Emergency brake cable needs replacement.

 

Mechanical  Vehicle has just under 115,000 miles and is basically all stock.

Starts on the first revolution every time, even in winter.  

This 12-Valve Cummins is considered the simplest and, by many, the best Cummins and also considered bulletproof by many; first generation Intercooled engine. It carries great oil pressure cold. Transfer case and all 4x4 work very well.  As stated, the Killer Dowel Pin (KDP) Tab has already been done! Transmission is a NV-5400 upgrade from the stock Getrag 360. It has low mileage and shifts smooth and correctly, Castrol Syntorq Transmission Fluid purposefully overfilled by 1qt as recommended by Diesel Forum members.  

Steering feels like new… it is very tight as is entire front end. New ball joints and front suspension parts. (play is what I would very minimal for one of these trucks (ALMOST NONE)).  It has good wheel alignment and it does not pull left or right; drives straight down the road.  It is practically smoke free, even at idle when cold.  

Oil was changed recently and it is still on the “full” mark and clean.   Rear main and front seals are fine.  There are basically no leaks in the transmission, transfer case or differentials, also new shocks (see truck side photos).  Sits level side to side. Front brakes have good pad left.  Good solid brakes. It’s been very reliable.  It has a new Flow master 3” exhaust that sounds great. The undercarriage of the truck is clean in a way only a very salt-free truck. She spent most of her life in the mid atlantic area, primarly Maryland and Virginia. Very light use.

 

 Body

As stated, NO RUST.  It looks great in pictures and very good “in person”. Older but full bed removal / bare metal paint restoration (retail $8000+ paint job in MB 050 pearl). It is an older restoration! The truck has solid sheet metal. Fenderwells and rocker panels are a main concern on these early cummins 12-valve trucks. These are Rust Free. I.e. NO RUST AT ALL.  


Interior

It is in quite good stock condition. Headliner is ok.  Door panels and seats are absolutely excellent.  No cracks or sun damage to dash. The seat shows quality and care of interior.  Power window and door lock options. Interior lights and turn signals etc all work as new. It is a non-smoker truck and has no cigarette burns or odor.   The visors are in like-new shape and stay right up against the headliner. There is no sun fade because it was garaged most of it whole life.

 

Electrical/HVAC

Very original electrical system.   All exterior lights high/low beams work.  Dome light works, through the switch and function as it should, when doors are opened. Electric windows and locks are stock and work as new.  Horn works.   Turn signals and flashers work.   Heater works.  Blower works on all 4 speeds.  Gas gauge is accurate. Wipers and washer work.  All cosmetically and functionally excellent.

 

All in all it is a good solid truck.  The reserve is reasonable. I have a free and clear title in my name. The only reason i am selling this beast is i am getting an early racing ('73) porsche 911 and need the money. Feel free to check carfax and autocheck.  If you would like to setup an appointment to see it in person you can.   Wire transfer or cashier’s check, but truck and title stay with me until it clears.

2014 Dodge Durango

Wed, 25 Sep 2013

Say what you want about the Dodge Durango, but ever since it came on the scene in 1998, it has occupied its own niche in the SUV market - not too small, not too big, tough, able, not always the best on the road and not always the best off-road. If it were a football player, it would be a tight-end that can block and catch. If it were a hamburger - a double burger with cheese and bacon, but not the Whopper.
As part of a mid-cycle upgrade for what was already a very capable SUV that Chrysler introduced in 2011, and built on the same platform as the Mercedes GL-Class and Jeep Grand Cherokee, the 2014 Durango has gotten some refinements worth noting that have cleaned up its tailoring and toned up its body and powerplant. The result is an SUV that shows itself to be a very good value in a category full of sticker prices that can run away faster than a kid who's been told he has to take ballroom dancing lessons.
Chrysler executives showing us the new Durango made a special point to reiterate that the Dodge brand is not going away, as has been rumored after the company took the Ram and Viper - the cream of the brand - out from under the Dodge umbrella. Turns out Dodge has been the brand attracting the most young people (who knew?) and has a younger average age buyer than Honda. The Dodge brand historically has also attracted buyers who aren't exactly Phi-Beta Cappa, which some companies worry about. Chrysler not so much. Dodge buyers tend to be more the working, high-school-educated, community-college-educated backbone of the work force in America. If they keep coming to Dodge, the Durango is a pretty good piece of hardware to save up for.

Dodge to reveal Hellcat-powered Challenger in Detroit?

Fri, 10 Jan 2014

On top of all the other performance car debuts slated for next week's Detroit Auto Show, we might be able to add one more to the list - the new, supercharged Hellcat V8 from Chrysler. According to new reports, the rumored 640-horsepower mill is likely to cross the Motor City stage in the engine bay of a Dodge Challenger.
As AllPar points out, though, there may be more news than just the fire-breathing engine. While we've seen spy photos of the Hellcat testing under the hood of the current Challenger, there's a very fair chance that it won't arrive until the muscle car is refreshed later this year. The question now is whether that refresh will be shown off alongside the new engine in Detroit, or if it'll be saved, perhaps for the New York Auto Show.
Other details dug up by AllPar include potential transmissions for the supercharged engine - the Mopar-minded site is expecting an eight-speed automatic or a Tremec six-speed manual. Prices, meanwhile, could be in the same elevated range as the Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, at $70,000 to $80,000.

Chrysler readying Hellcat V8 with Viper-like power

Tue, 21 May 2013

A 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.
