1955 Dodge B-1 Power Wagon, 230ci 6cyl, First Mass Produced Civilian 4x4, Fully Restored Beauty!

Beautiful Navy Blue on Black Dodge 4x4!

Here is probably one of the rarest vehicles I have ever had the chance to bring to market for sale. This vehicle is a super rare 1955 Dodge B-1 Power Wagon. These trucks were the first mass produced 4x4 offered to the public. These trucks were scooped up by returning GIs who had learned about Dodge truck strength and dependability on the battlefields of Europe. The truck is essentially a civilian bodied military vehicle and uses all of the same underpinnings. 5058 of these trucks were built in 1955, and very few of these trucks have survived the severe conditions and workloads most operated on. This truck lived its life in the southwest and was restored in Arizona in 2003. The truck received a full cosmetic and mechanical restoration back to its original glory. The mileage is believed to be original at only a bit over 37,000 miles. It was believed the truck spent many years of its life as a tow truck, hence the circular holes in the side of the bed where the tow rig levers stuck out.

The following is a list of options as this Power Wagon is currently equipped:

-Original Date Correct 230ci T137 Inline 6cyl

-4 Speed Manual Transmission

-2 Speed Transfer Case

-Added Front Locking Hubs

-Front and Rear PTO

-Original Braden PTO Winch

-Correct Non-Directional All Terrain Tires

-Matching Spare

-Original Fuel Can

-All Original Steel Body and Floors

-Original Gauges

The body on the Rig is totally solid and rust free. I have inspected the body and can not find a single spot of rust or repair patches whatsoever. It is finished in Navy Blue with Black fenders. The truck was restored and repainted several years back and fenders, running boards, and tailgate were all replaced. The paint job was done to a driver spec and not a lot of time or money was spent on body prep and blocking. The paint itself is in great shape with no cracking or aging, but there are imperfections and dings which the painter just sprayed over. All new rubbers were used when the glass was put back in. This Power Wagon was spared a life in damp climate and has remained solid throughout the years. The body and floors are in excellent condition for its age and look as good underneath as it does on top. A new set of military tires were installed in 2003 when the full restoration was done.

The interior is very clean and correct. It was restored using correct materials and looks as close to original as you can get. Everything works correctly including the horn and vacuum power window wipers. Odometer and speedo turn as they should and all other gauges work as well. Even the reproduction info tags are on the dash. New window felts and door bumpers have been installed as well as a new leather shifter cover on the floor.

Mechanically, this Power Wagon runs GREAT! The drive train was gone through in 2003 including a full rebuild on the original engine and head. The truck always starts right up with no issues or smoke. Transmission was checked and re-sealed, an differentials and transfer case were checked. Electrical system was gone through new generator and fresh battery. The brake system was just completely gone through including all new lines, brake shoes, and master cylinder. The front Braden winch even still works as it should. I personally just did a full tune up, dropped the tank, had it professionally cleaned, installed a new fuel sender and got her running like a top! The truck is tight as a drum and does not leak a single drop of any fluid!

All in all, this is one of the cleanest and well restored Power Wagons on the market. It has been professionally maintained and truly loved by its previous owners. This truck is a fantastic example and will be the envy of any true military or truck collector! Any further questions or information about this vehicle please call Jon at 480-703-2337. The car is located in Sunny Scottsdale, Arizona.

2013 Dodge Dart gets brace of new special edition models

Thu, 16 May 2013

After almost a year on the market it, it is becoming more clear to Dodge how customers like to option out their Darts, so the automaker has combined popular features into three special edition packages and sweetened the prices. Start with a standard 2013 Dart and add either the SXT or Limited "Special Editions" or Rallye Appearance Group, and you'll save yourself a lot of box checking.
The $595 Dart SXT Special Edition takes the trim just above the base model and adds a new grille, dark-tinted headlights and projector fog lights, LED racetrack taillights, cruise control and audio controls on the leather-wrapped steering wheel. The Limited Special Edition starts with the top-end model and adds a power sunroof, heated front seats and steering wheel, dual-zone climate control and Nappa leather seats among other features, for $1,810.
The Rallye Appearance Group (pictured) is a package for the SXT, and it blacks out the front fascia, throws on 17-inch wheels and some badging for $395. The new special editions are reaching dealers now and could help the Dart's sales to further improve after a slow start. You can find out more about them in the press release below.

MotorWeek proves '90s were awesome with Supra, Stealth, RX-7, Corvette, 968, 300ZX comparo

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

Oh, the heady days of 1993, back when the Clinton Presidency was just getting underway, and it seemed like every hot new rock band was coming out of Seattle. Sports cars in the US had finally shaken off the shackles that slowed them during the '70s and '80s, and you could buy any number of legitimately quick vehicles again. MotorWeek recently went digging into its archives to find this six-model test from 1993 showing off some of the best semi-affordable performance coupes that money could buy at the time, and it's priceless.
Featuring the 1994 model year Toyota Supra in twin-turbo guise and MY 1993 versions of the Porsche 968, Nissan 300ZX TT, Mazda RX-7, Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo and Chevrolet Corvette LT-1, MotorWeek definitely covered all of the bases. One thing that might surprise younger readers is these cars' performance. The video only provides 0-60 acceleration times, but several of these vehicles would still be considered pretty potent today - over 20 years since going on sale. The Supra is especially impressive, hitting 60 miles per hour in just 5 seconds. Even today, that's nothing to sneeze at.
Given their performance potential and still-attractive looks, it's amazing that some of these coupes are old enough to drink now. The progress of interior design and safety equipment in the intervening years is pretty shocking, though. In most of these models, having two airbags is touted as a big deal. Scroll down to watch a Throwback Thursday blast from the past about some of the '90s best sports cars.

Dodge Scat Pack for 5.7L Hemi V8 detailed, priced

Sat, 05 Apr 2014

Dodge revived the Scat Pack name back in November at the 2013 SEMA show. At the time, though, we were short of details on forthcoming upgrade packages, which were destined to add some oomph to the Challenger, Charger and Dart. We're still waiting to hear about the upgrades to the Dart's 2.4-liter four-pot, but Dodge has gone ahead and released the details on the upgrades to the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 in the Challenger and Charger R/T.
As we detailed in our original post, three different Scat Packs will be available that will allow customers to upgrade their cars without voiding the warranties. Starting with the $2,195 Stage 1 kit, owners will net an extra 18 horsepower and 18 pound-feet of torque thanks to a Mopar-branded cold-air intake, exhaust and ECU ref lash. Stage 1 is also the only package that could be installed outside of a Chrysler-authorized service center without voiding the warranty (a mechanically competent owner could even do it at home, we're told by Dodge). Stage 2 builds on the entry level Scat Pack, and adds performance camshaft kit, which boosts output over the stock 5.7 by up to 30 hp for $1,895. As with the Stage 1, the ECU is tweaked.
For those that want to go whole hog, they can add the Stage 3 for $4,995. The top-tier gets quite serious, adding CNC-ported cylinder heads, as well as high-flow headers and cats. Output over stock is 58 hp and 47 lb-ft of torque. Each kit comes with a pair of badges, just in case owners want a bit of visual flair.
