1933 Dodge Brothers on 2040-cars
Boerne, Texas, United States
|
1933 Dodge Brothers Pickup., Chopped channeled and shaved to perfection, Earlier restoration of the body, The paint is in good condition and is very showable, It just won 1st place at a car show here in San Antonio with about 200 cars on Fathers day. The Trophy goes with the truck as I am sure it will be the first of many trophies won.
I bought the truck at auction about a year ago and started work on it. Added an brand new motor, a 350 that I had built by a former drag racing crew chief. Its a 350 with custom Alloy heads with 200 fuel rails roller lifters and a matched cam. Flat top 10.5 to 1 pistons with a custom crank and bearings. 750 Holley double pumper with an electronic ignition set up. New headers and exhaust system. It dynode at 413 HP and for a 1400 lb truck thats more than needed. a custom 3000 stall and a racing 3 speed trans with Locar shifter. Dolphin Gauges a new billet collum with a new custom wheel, A very nice wood dash and a stereo for some road tunes. Power windows and a nice custom interior. I had a complete brand new brake system installed with all new rotors drums and master cylinder, I had new brake lines installed and new fittings. It has a 9 inch rear end and new shocks. The exhaust is custom built with hugger headers and chrome and stainless fittings, because the truck sits so low i had NASCAR oval stainless exhaust pipe ran and if you have ever priced that stuff it was not cheap. I have been a gear head all my life and this is the first Dodge Brothers I have ever seen so I did a little research. In 1929 the Dodge brothers both died and the company was sold to the Chrysler family. sales of trucks back then was very low and Mr Chrysler wanted to boost sales and also honer the two Dodge Brothers. So in 1933 Mr Chrysler decided to build what he called the glamor truck, He took the sheet metal from the 1933 Dodge Automobile and used it on the pickup in an effort to make the trucks more car like. He also commissioned an artist to make a hood ornament for the truck line. So as you see 1933 was the first Dodge Ram. The Dodge Brothers truck line was produced from 1933 to 1935 and then the name was shortened to Dodge. There were 99,000 plus of these trucks built and over the years the numbers have dwindled to just a few left. most are in collections and if you look for Dodge Brothers pickups you will not find any and what you do find will either be a basket case or in the very high price range, the few show trucks I have found were listed at close to 100K . This pickup is not perfect, it does have a scratch here and there and a few chips in the paint, If you invest in paint this truck will sell in the 80s but I felt the paint is just too nice to redo now. I do not need to sell this truck but I have found another project I want to do and if I am going to do it I need the garage space. This truck is very rare and will win everything you enter it in as now one has seen anything like it, So if you are a guy that wants to be the center of attention and have a big crowd around your Hot rod this is the one for you |

2013 Dodge Challenger R/T Redline revs into Chicago
Fri, 01 Feb 2013When Dodge released the Challenger Rallye Redline last year, it brought a new dimension of styling to the car's classic muscle car lines, but it was only available in V6 form lacking the oomph to back up its sinister appearance. To remedy that situation, Dodge is unveiling the Challenger R/T Redline, powered by a Hemi V8 engine, at the Chicago Auto Show.
Other than the extra cylinders, most of the R/T's Redline package carries over from the Rallye model including the custom-look 20-inch black chrome wheels with red paint accents, but the R/T version of the package gets more of a retro look to the side stripes with graphite graphics featuring Redline lettering. Cars equipped with the six-speed manual transmission will get a performance-tuned, low-restriction exhaust allowing the engine to produce 375 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque; cars with the five-speed auto are rated at 372 hp and 400 lb-ft, but they do offer a bright chrome Mopar t-handle shifter and steering wheel paddle shifters.
The R/T Redline Group is offered only on cars painted in Billet Silver, Granite Crystal, Bright White and Pitch Black, and it adds just $1,995 to the MSRP of the Challenger R/T (starting at $31,990) and the Challenger R/T Plus (starting at $33,990), which adds features like Nappa leather and Boston Acoustics speakers.
SRT back to Dodge, Dart SRT, new Challenger, Charger and Caravan's death outlined in 5-yr plan
Tue, 06 May 2014The onslaught of news from Fiat Chrysler's layout of five-year plans continued with Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis this morning, including the unexpected announcement that SRT was coming back into the fold.
After just a few years existing as an independent entity within the Fiat Chrysler universe, an unceremonious press release hit in conjunction with today's lineup of announcements, saying "the SRT family of vehicles will be consolidated under the Dodge brand." Group CEO Sergio Marchionne thanked SRT headman Ralph Gilles for his dedication to the high-performance wing, calling out is efforts in expanding the vehicle lineup and including more customized models. He did not reference disappointing SRT Viper sales today, but we sense there's a bit of subtext.
With the SRT reunion at Dodge, it's appropriate that some of the most exciting product announcements for the next five years have to do with upcoming performance products. First out of the gate will be a refresh for that flagging Viper in 2015, which comes as little surprise.
Weekly Recap: Things you might not know about the 2015 Dodge Charger and Challenger Hellcats
Sat, 16 Aug 2014If you're an enthusiast, and you don't know that Dodge spawned another Hellcat this week, you really must have been living in cave. The 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat is probably the biggest news for enthusiasts since the reveal of, well the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat.
But, there are some things you might not know or might have missed about the new Charger and Challenger Hellcats. For starters, reports that the Hellcat production would be limited to a low volume are not true.
"We have not capped the Hellcat on either the Challenger or the Charger," Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis said.
