|
Up for bid is a: 1966 DODGE A100 Pickup Truck with a PERFORMANCE 225 Mopar Clifford 6=8 Headers. This is the RARE 3 Window Version (the super stock truck used for the Promotional Little Red Wagon). This Original California Barn Find Was bought by a friend Tony in the 1990's (where it was used on a ranch in California) with plans of turning it into a Little GREEN Wagon, opting for the Original 6 cylinder to keep it stock, but add CLIFFORD performance. Extensive mechanical work was done on this low miles truck to include New Engine, Rebuilt Transmission, Brakes all redone new lines etc, Practically everything was done. Have receipts, This truck runs and drives and handles GREAT! All body work was done by Chuck Morris who has had his work shown in Hot Rod Magazine, with some slight customizations eliminating vertical seam lines at rear and at the top of bed walls. 1n 2006 The truck was ready to have the exterior painted and I would complete by adding Firestone Redline tires (made by Coker) mounted on Strait rims that were powder coated to last as was the grill. Then the interior and replace body & trim and bumpers with either NOS Mopar parts or restored original parts, Once the truck was re assembled it hit the streets of Malibu and was driven very lightly (Used for promoting the SJOBECK Malibu Brand of Mens Denim) . The Decals are soft and will remove easily should you want to remove them. The final details has been a slow work in progress, preferring to only replace original parts with original NOS parts, so there is still minimal effort to take it to the next level. or just drive it as it is and get tons of attention and thumbs up everywhere you go.
The NOS, NEW OLD STOCK Parts: OEM Red tipped Wipers, arms & bezels, Washer sprayers, outside Door handles, turn lens brake and dome lens lights are OEM NOS as well as OEM NOS Back up/ plate chrome & lights, OEM NOS headlight Bezels as well as OEM NOS turn signal switch as well as Horn button, as you may know these parts are so Expensive when and if you can ever find them. Now it is time for someone to enjoy this truck that I have kept in the Garage and driven under 6 thousand miles since 2006, Has Its original Sun visor posts restored and a new headliner by Acme ( I could not find OEM material on these. Has the Super stock seats redone with a grey matched material and they look factory, will need a speedo cable, and a pedal pad, rubber floor mat as well a new paint to make it show as the painter did poor prep work in some areas and it did not grab in the bed and some other areas, but still looks great from ten feet. all Pictures are current except for 1 that was shown online in the Iowa Hawk and also was shown at Fast Eddies website and on The Hundreds Streetwear clothing brand website as well. Has its original Owner Card from the Chrysler corporation with vin number and specs on it and comes with current registration and a clean title!

eGarage interviews a couple with 65 Vipers
Thu, 12 Sep 2013Owning multiple vehicles can be a hassle worth enjoying if you're willing to spend the time and the money required to acquire and maintain them. But when it's hard to make ends meet while underused valuable hunks of metal, plastic and rubber sit happily taking up garage space, journeys into the depths of other people's well-developed automotive obsessions will either bring you and your cars closer together, or compel you to sell them off before you become one of those fanatics. A recent video by eGarage is one of those journeys, and it's not for the faint of heart: D'Ann and Wayne Rauh own 65 Dodge and SRT Vipers in a collection of automobiles that exceeds 100.
We're not sure if the couple has developed heat-resistant calves from stepping over Viper door sills made burning-hot by side-exhaust pipes, but we wouldn't be surprised if they did. We did learn that their obsession with the no-holds-barred sports car started in 2006 with a trip to a dealership to buy just one Viper, which goes to show how innocently car obsessions can start. But the Rauhs seem to be doing just fine - perhaps better - 64 more Vipers later.
Watch the video below for the full story and to see what eGarage claims is the world's largest Viper collection.
Motorweek goes retro with '80s hot hatch shootout
Mon, 03 Nov 2014Motorweek's decades of history on television make it the perfect medium to look back into the automotive past and see how things are different now. It recently added old road test videos to its YouTube channel of the Acura NSX and Toyota Supra, as well as the Ferrari F40. For one of its newest flashback clips, Motorweek has exhumed an affordable five-car challenge of 1986's premiere hot hatches.
By today's standards, this is an eclectic field that features fondly remembered classics like the Volkswagen GTI 16-valve and Acura Integra. However, it also throws in some nearly forgotten contenders like the Dodge Colt Turbo and Ford Escort GT. The angular Toyota Corolla FX16 GT-S rounds out the group.
It's fascinating to watch Motorweek run the quintet through the slalom, down the drag strip and on various roads. What's most striking in this clip is the difference in the definition of a performance car between then and now. With its 16-valve, 1.8-liter four-cylinder, the GTI is the burliest of the contenders with 123 horsepower, but it still takes 8.8 seconds to reach 60 miles per hour. By today's standards, that would make it a plain-jane economy car, and not even a particularly quick one.
2013 Dodge Dart GT
Mon, 16 Dec 2013My younger brother bought a Dodge Dart earlier this summer. It's a basic SXT, in Maximum Steel Metallic, with the 2.0-liter engine, a six-speed automatic transmission and not a whole lot else. Unfortunately, at the time, the Dart was one of the few cars in the compact class I'd never driven. I didn't know a lot about it, and therefore, didn't have a lot to say when he bought it. I think the words "based on an Alfa," popped out when I first saw it.
As it turns out, he's grown quite fond of the dark gray sedan, so it was with some degree of enthusiasm that I paid him a visit in this bright-orange Dart GT. I was excited to see what it was about the Dart that he enjoyed so much, despite my tester featuring a different engine, transmission and a lot more tech. After a week with the car, though, I must say: I don't quite see what all the fuss is about.
