Year:1978 Mileage:999999
Location:

Minden, Nevada, United States

Minden, Nevada, United States


This truck is being sold AS IS and must be picked up in Minden,
Nevada within 30 days of auction end. It runs and yard drives,
but has not been on the road in many years and will need to
be trailered. Please ask questions before bidding if I have
left something out of my description. It needs total restoration
of all components and is missing whatever is not shown.


Sold new here in dry Northern Nevada at Don Weir's Reno Dodge.
In the late 70s they sold a lot of Dodge's Adult Toys including this
all black Warlock Power Wagon 4 speed. I purchased from the original
owner (still in Reno) a few years ago. It had been neglected and parked
since the 90s. With a battery, fresh gas, and a fuel pump and filter,
it fired right up. It is a 318 with a factory 4 speed, and 9.25 rear with
Sure Grip and 3.55 gears. It still retained an original Carburetor, alternator,
radiator, (fuel pump) and some of the hoses including the bypass.
A very original engine compartment. I also changed the oil prior
to starting. It runs and drives, but should be completely gone thru
before driving on the road. It needs and deserves a total restoration,
Including the engine, which has low oil pressure, and a small coolant leak
at the timing cover but no unusual noises.

Miles are unknown, it shows 12K and is at least 112. The original owner
did not have any additional info or documentation.

The body has a lot of dents. See pictures, and note the damage to
the tailgate, driver's side cab, door, fenders, bumpers, chrome step
grill etc. It still has it's original
cert label showing a very late build of July 1978 and door vin tag. This
is one of the last of the 78 Warlocks. Also note the placement of the
Power Wagon hood emblems. Pushed back, and typical of the
Late 78 utilines. You are looking at all original paint/stripes and the
gold primer coming thru.

The interior still has it's original black buckets, Tuff Wheel w/ 4x4
only adapter, and even original carpet, (cut to expose floors). The
cab is as solid as they come with nothing but original black paint
in the floor pans. The windshield and passenger side glass are 
damaged, originally factory tint.

The truck still has it's four original 15/8 chrome slot wheels (same as
lil red) and the original plastic center caps. It is missing the spare
and the wood racks..

The frame is dry and straight with only the usual surface rust (even
in the desert). The bed wood and strips are gone, replaced by
plywood. The tires are ancient but hold air.

If your looking for a Rare Power Wagon to restore, this is your truck.
Clear Nevada title in my name and can be exported. It is sold AS IS
where is, Minden Nevada 89423. It must be paid in full within 3 business
days of auction close, and picked up within 30 days. All shipping costs
are the responsibility of the buyer.  Please check your shipping costs
and with your wife before bidding.

This is a NO RESERVE auction selling to the highest bidder.

Chrysler to accelerate production of 2013 Ram and V6 engines

Fri, 16 Nov 2012

Chrysler is adding a third shift at its Warren Truck plant to meet demand for the new 2013 Ram pickup. And with tight supplies of its Pentastar V6, the company is also boosting output at its Mack Engine plant.
The expansions will add 1,250 jobs and are part of a $238 million investment by Chrysler in the Detroit area. Warren's third shift will begin work sometime in the spring, a Chrysler rep told Automotive News. Mack's increased Pentastar production a could include both 3.6 and 3.2-liter engines.
The company says it also plans to invest $40 million in its Trenton Engine plant to allow for production of a 3.2-liter V6 as well as the Tigershark inline-four for the upcoming Jeep Liberty replacement.

Roadkill pits every project car against each other

Sat, 22 Feb 2014

The guys behind Motor Trend's monthly Roadkill series have collected nine of their favorite project cars from their videos and pitted them against each other in a battle royale to determine a winner. It's 44 minutes long, but it's completely worth the investment of time.
The cars run the gamut from a 1973 Chevrolet Ramp Truck, a 1975 AMC Pacer and a legitimately impressive 1967 Chevy Camaro, and they are pitted against each other to see which is the fastest around an autocross course. The drivers include Roadkill's two hosts and Motor Trend's Johnny Lieberman and Carlos Lago. It's reminiscent of the best episodes of Top Gear and worth a watch.
So it's the weekend - the perfect time to relax. Grab your preferred beverage, get comfortable and enjoy 44 minutes of some seriously ratty but utterly cool project cars as they are throttled within an inch of their lives (or past it). Scroll down to check out the video.

South Dakota dealer filled to brim with classic cars

Wed, 12 Mar 2014

Other than the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and Mount Rushmore, South Dakota isn't generally a hot topic, but that just means that cool stuff can hide in the open waiting to be discovered. Case in point: the classic car dealer Frankman Motor Company that operates three locations in Sioux Falls, SD.
Unearthed by the folks at Bring a Trailer, Frankman is a treasure trove of vintage, American iron. Their collection is full of the type of vehicles your irresponsible but cool uncle would show up with when you were a kid. Even better, these cars are priced at a level a working man can afford.
If you are lusting about a cruiser then Frankman has a 1956 Cadillac Deville Hard Top Sedan (pictured right) with 82,896 miles for $12,975. It's painted a color called Cascade Grey, but looks more like a pastel purple in pictures. While it needs some repairs to the accessories, the Caddy runs and drives, which is all you really need.
