'78 L'il Red Express for sale. Miles are original, one owner since bought new in 1978. Has never been wrecked, kept covered under patio for last 15 years. Maybe 200 miles put on it in that time frame, has been babied its whole life. Nothing has been rebuilt, but starts right up and drives fine. A/C blows but does not get cold, all original except for carb, seat, radio(which I do have the original but doesn't work) and manifold( which I do have original cast iron one). Truck was painted about 15 years ago and still looks fine. No dents or scratches on body. Dash is NOT cracked but is faded in front of drivers side, carpet is faded, boards are in the bed but not around the truck. I do have the original boards to use as templates but not the hardware for them. I also have some trim stickers but not for the doors which are faded as well. Truck will need some work due to sitting up for so long and not being driven, but is mechanically sound. Would not take a lot of work or money to restore depending on how far someone wants to take it. If you know these trucks then you know how rare and special they are, especially the '78s. No need for me to go into that. Rubber on the truck is literally only the 2nd set of tires that has been put on the truck. That covers the main parts of the truck, feel free to email me with any questions. Thanks, and good luck bidding, the winner will get a very nice truck!!! I reserve the right to end auction early due to the fact I have the truck for sale locally.

Dodge unveils Special Service Durango for government fleets
Fri, 18 Oct 2013Straight off its refresh, the Dodge Durango is slipping back into its dress blues and getting back to work. The 2014 Dodge Durango Special Service Vehicle boasts all the refinements and improvements that the refreshed, civilian-spec model received, most notably a 15-percent improvement in fuel economy.
Designed for police and fire departments, and as Chrysler's answer to the Ford Police Interceptor Utility and Chevrolet Tahoe PPV in the growing service SUV market, the Durango boasts a 600-mile range, thanks to the addition of an eight-speed automatic, available on both the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 and 5.7-liter Hemi V8. Equipped with the 360-horsepower Hemi, the Durango SSV can tow up to 7,400 pounds (the V6 is limited to 6,200 pounds).
Police and fire department Durangos get a few special features over the civilian models. The electric systems are ruggedized, with a heavy duty battery and a 220-amp alternator in place, while the engine's water pump and oil cooler are both stronger. The brakes are tougher, and a load-leveling suspension has been fitted, too.
2013 Dodge Dart GT offers subtle menace in compact form
Mon, 14 Jan 2013Dodge has already shared all of the relevant information about its all-new 2013 Dart GT, but it wasn't until now that we've seen the car, live and in person. The slightly meaner front fascia and bigger wheels look great on the Dodge, and the red-on-black perforated seats are sporting in an aftermarket sort of way.
To recap: The Dart GT also gets a bit more power, using a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine to make 184 horsepower and 174 pound-feet of torque. A starting price of $20,995 will get you LED taillights, dual exhaust, an 8.4-inch touchscreen and a 7.0-inch TFT display.
Feel free to re-acquaint yourselves with the full Dodge Dart GT information in the press release below, or have a leisurely browse through our gallery of live images.
Chrysler extending production of current Dodge Avenger, Jeep Wrangler, Grand Caravan
Wed, 24 Jul 2013Are you hesitant to pull the trigger on a brand new Dodge Avenger in hopes that a new one will be coming? Well, don't hold your breath. According to The Detroit News, Chrysler will be extending production of the current Avenger sedan through the end of 2015.
Originally, we heard that the company would kill the Avenger to better focus its midsize sedan efforts on the Chrysler 200 replacement. But then new reports stated there would indeed be an Avenger successor, and that we could see it as early as next January. This Detroit News report cites supplier sources confirming the extension of Avenger production, though Chrysler has not released an official statement on the matter.
These same suppliers say that the current Jeep Wrangler will live on through mid-2018 - that's right, another five years. The Detroit News reports that a replacement for the iconic, go-anywhere Jeep was due in mid-2016.
