Up for sale is a 1951 Dodge B3-F series flatbed dully truck. This is NOT a show truck, but is a ton of fun and fully functional.

This truck is in decent original shape...a good survivor. Original color appears to have been dark blue, but was painted orange/red at some point. Paint is in poor shape...and looks like it may have been brushed on?

I was told it had been used at a local mandarin ranch for many years hauling cases of oranges during harvest. The previous owner stated that within the last 2 years the truck received four new tires, a rebuilt carb, the brakes were gone through and the new flatbed undercarriage was constructed. I can't confirm this is true, but things all seem to be working and the tires are in good shape. The new flatbed structure appears well done and measures 12 feet long by 7 1/2 feet wide. I have done no mechanical work on this rig aside from new engine oil and trans/differential fluid. Have driven it about 25 miles in the last year or so...always fires up and chugs down the road. 45 MPH is the max I've had it to...

Body is in OK shape...minor dents and dings. no major rust. The driver door seam is splitting and the door check is broken so the door overextends when open and is dented because of this. Minor rust on the floorboards...no rust through or major issues. Seat cover is newer and in good shape. Glass is all there and in OK shape. Headliner is falling down.

This is a 6 volt system that at some point in the past was converted from positive ground to negative ground. fuel gage does not work, but all others (Speedo, odometer, voltmeter, temp) all seem to function properly.

Truck runs very smoothly, but need some tuning on the carb...bogs a bit w/o the choke partly opened while driving. it has never overheated on me and does not really seem to leak any fluids to speak of.

many of the vent/air/heater pulls are frozen and would need some coaxing to get working. Electric wipers do work.

My research shows the truck has the following:

236 cu in flat 6 developing 109 horsepower. (Engine number: T3I4-9I47)

4 speed manual on the floor

GVW is 13500lbs

Comes with a clear California title and current California tags (just paid). The VIN on the title matches a metal plate near the drivers side cowl/firewall in the engine bay. The serial number on the removable data plate on the door jamb number does not match this VIN...but the data plate may not be original to the truck.

Please don't expect perfection or a vehicle with no quirks. It really could use some tinkering to make sure all the systems are up to speed and in good shape.

If you are the winning bidder, please plan for appropriate transportation of the vehicle to your location before committing to bid. This is a BIG truck and I would guess prices will be higher than normal. It is likely not practical to drive this home unless you are very close to the Sacramento area. Also, please note that this truck MUST be picked up within 2 weeks of a winning bid...no exceptions. I have to move it out...

Full payment within 3 days of a winning bid via cash in person, Paypal or certified check.

Any questions please ask...I've tried to tell all that I know about this fun old truck.

Vehicle is also for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction early.

Thanks for looking...

Chrysler investigating complaints of vehicles with faulty power modules

Sun, 24 Aug 2014

Chrysler owners are hopping mad after experiencing a series of electrical gremlins in some of the company's vehicles. Issues range from mere annoyances - windows rolling down and radios turning off of their own accord - to serious safety issues, with headlights that randomly shut off at night and cars that stall and refuse to start.
The issues are being blamed on the total integrated power module, which can cost up to $1,000 for customers to replace. This, of course, has led to a hefty batch of complaints to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, with 240 owners expressing their displeasure so far. Another site, CarComplaints.com, has registered over 300 complaints relating to the 2010 to 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango, alone, according to The New York Times.
Chrysler has acknowledged that it's investigating the complaints and is analyzing the faulty TIPMs, but that isn't quite enough for customers of the affected vehicles. The newspaper has snagged a few of the more harrowing tales with the electrically challenged Chrysler products, culled from the NHTSA complaints.

2015 Dodge Viper price drops $15k for 2015

Mon, 08 Sep 2014

We recently saw updated specs and new trims of the 2015 Viper, but it looks like the folks at Dodge were saving the biggest surprise for last. Prices on all levels of the American sports car are seeing an immediate, across-the-board price cut of $15,000; even 2014 models still remaining on dealer lots.
The new MSRP for the 2015 Viper in its base SRT trim now starts at $84,995, and when the TA and GTS come to the lineup later next year, they start at $100,995 and $107,995, respectively. The move seems like a swing for the fences that might help to quell slow sales.
Obviously, current Viper owners might be somewhat peeved that their investment was just re-priced by the company. However, to assuage some of their concerns, Dodge is giving all fifth-gen owners a certificate worth $15,000 towards the purchase of a new one, which comes in addition to the price reduction.

Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).
