1970 DODGE POWER WAGON W200 4X4. Powerwagon 4X4 with original owners manual. This was a fuel truck for a local marina and didn't get driven much. The mileage of 50k most likely is original. It was owned by the grandfather of one of my friends, and has been in my town as long as I can remember. The pickup runs great and is ready restore, or could be a driver with little maintenance. It has a clear title. Everything works including the plow, heater, gauges, etc. I have not tried any of the fuel pumping stuff though. The body is pretty solid but has some rust which I will detail. I HAVE MORE PICS I CAN SEND AND A VIDEO OF IT RUNNING. Thanks.
MECHANICAL This dodge has the 318 with the 4-speed manual. The engine runs excellent. It doesn't smoke at all and has great oil pressure even when warm. It most likely is the original engine. If it matters to you, I can try to check the numbers. It has no ticks or knocks and runs cool even when plowing. To my knowledge, this was never used to plow commercially. Just owner use. All gauges work. Heater, wipers and lights work. Plow has up down, but angle is manual. Wheels are original split 16". Tires are bias that are not good but do hold air. The truck drives ok, but it's hard to tell because the tires are junk. Frontend feels tight though. I'm sure it would be good to check it all out. No powersteering, power brakes, or air. Original radio. Vintage CB. This was a fuel truck at the local marina for a long time. Mileage of 50,718 could be original but I don't know. 4x4 and tranfer case, etc. all work fine. Exhaust needs to be redone. Brakes need checked/adjusted but they always work. I've really only driven this about 40 mph on the highway. According to the trim tag, this has an np435 transfer case and dana 60 rearend. Overall, the truck will need no major mechanical work. Starts every time and the choke works as it should. No major leaks, but the usual seepage. I've never tried to use any of the fuel pumping equipment. Pump is PTO driven.
BODY The body isn't the best but isn't the worst. I'm sure if your from the midwest or any coastal area, it is probably nicer than most you'll be able to find in this price range. The doors, hood, frame, box, and tailgate look rust free and I've checked underneath it and looked at door bottoms. Cab has rust in the step area and some in floorboards where your feet sit. Drivers side is worse and has a patch. Cab is fixable. Most of it is fine, but will need some work or find another cab. Front fenders each have rust on top edge, under the hood. Passenger side has rust in rear low corner also. Box is nice really, but has holes cut in the floor for the fueling equipment. That's a somewhat easy fix with donor metal from another box. No rust that I can find but drivers rear corner of box has had some bondo. Not bad, just wasn't fixed right. Tailgate is nice. This truck was originally turqoise. The body is very fixable and is probably better than it looks in the pics. Doors are very straight.
INTERIOR Interior is pretty basic but the dash and gauge area are actually in nice shape. Original radio but it doesn't come on. Vintage cb does work I believe. Seat has a cover on it so most likely has the usual wear/tear underneath. Door panel inserts are in ok shape.
THIS TRUCK IS USED AND IS SOLD AS-IS. IT'S 44 YEARS OLD AND NEEDS RESTORATION. |

Thieves still love older Hondas and pickups most, says NICB [w/video]
Wed, 20 Aug 2014No one wants to have their car stolen, but a new study by the National Insurance Crime Bureau has some bad news for older Honda owners and pickup drivers. Fortunately, it has better news for drivers overall. The group is reporting that according to preliminary data from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, thefts were down 3.2 percent in 2013 (versus 2012) to fewer than 700,000 cars. That's the lowest figure since 1967. That's also less than half of the peak of over 1.66 million thefts in 1991. "The drop in thefts is good news for all of us," says NICB President and CEO Joe Wehrle. "But it still amounts to a vehicle being stolen every 45 seconds and losses of over $4 billion a year."
Honda drivers might not find it such good news with older Accord and Civic models topping this year's theft study. Toyota and Dodge can't really celebrate, either, with two models each on the list, as well. Overall, this year's list was split evenly between foreign and domestic models, which were mostly pickups.
The 10 most likely vehicles to be stolen in 2013 were:
Dodge idles Viper production again at Conner Avenue
Mon, 07 Jul 2014You've got to hand it to Dodge for having the gumption to put the original Viper into production in the first place. It was, after all, much more of an emotional decision than a practical one, and a move which saw the first production V10 engine placed in a road car - long before the advent of the Lamborghini Gallardo, Audi R8, Porsche Carrera GT or Lexus LFA, not to mention the other Ford, BMW and Volkswagen Group models that used such engines.
It's now been 22 years since the first Viper entered production and the Viper still rolls on several generations later, but we're sad to say that courageous decision has not always been met with overwhelming sales success. In fact parent Chrysler was forced to idle the Conner Avenue plant where the Viper is made back in April due to slow sales. And while production resumed again as planned on June 23, it apparently didn't do the trick.
As a result, Chrysler corporate communications chief Shawn Morgan revealed to Autoblog that the assembly line has been shut down again for another two weeks. The line was up and running for nearly two full work weeks from June 23 until the holiday weekend that started on Thursday, July 3. But instead of coming back online today as planned, it's been idled again for the weeks of July 7 and 14. That means it will be July 21, at the earliest, before the serpentine supercars start slithering down the assembly line at Conner Avenue again. Once it does, however, production is set to resume at the same pace it was before the shutdown.
Dodge Challenger returns to Trans Am
Fri, 15 Aug 2014NASCAR's Nationwide Series may have switched (in appearance anyway) to muscle cars, but American racing fans know that if they want to see real muscle cars on the street circuits, the only place to look is Trans Am. The all-American racing series is packed with Mustangs, Camaros and even Corvettes. The one thing it's been missing is the Dodge Challenger, but now SRT Motorsports has announced it's bringing its muscle car back where it belongs.
Rather than waiting until next year, the Miller Racing team is switching mid-season to the new Dodge Challenger SRT Trans Am racer you see here, just in time for this weekend's race at Mid-Ohio. And not just that - it's lined up a compelling pair of drivers to pilot it, as well.
The No. 11 car will be driven by Trans Am legend Tommy Kendall, a four-time series champion who's been off the grid since 2004. Backing him up in the No. 1 Challenger will be none other than Cameron Lawrence, the driver who has won five out of six races in the Chevy Camaro so far this season, losing out only once to American racing scion Adam Andretti.
