LOL, oK ok!!! I ADMIT, THAT WAS A PLOY TO GET YOUR ATTENTION... DID IT WORK???

GOOD!


LET'S TALK ABOUT THE TRUCK!

It is a 1997 Chevy 1500, single cab, 4 wheel drive, 318 engine- strong engine!, Automatic transmission, And, it has just enough lift to be cool! And the tires are downright decent- lookin almost as good as new!
OH, and it belonged to my friends Dad- an older man til a year ago, when he passed away.
The truck sat for a year, and when my friend took it home- thinking she would fix it up for herself, it started acting up, so she had a number of things done to it- at the recommendation of a shady mechanic that cleaned her out! She has receipts for all of the new parts, but, now can't afford to finish the work on it! Sooo,  I called an Army mechanic friend of mine- told him the symptoms... YOU START IT UP- AND IT RUNS GREAT- TIL IT WARMS UP- THEN IT SHUTS OFF! And, he told me it was vapor locking, which he said was not a big deal to fix- but, he is in another state, and the truck is here...
AND FOR SALE!
AND, HERE IS A LIST OF THE NEW PARTS THAT HAVE BEEN PUT ON IT:
FUEL PUMP
BRAIN
DISTRIBUTOR COIL
COIL PACK
CRANK SHAFT SENSOR
RADIATOR
BATTERY
AND, A NEW DASH!!!
WOULDN'T WANNA ACCUSE ANYONE OF GOING OVERBOARD!!!


SO THERE YA HAVE IT, THIS LITTLE TRUCK COULD BE PRETTY COOL WITH MINIMAL EFFORT AND CASH!


BUT, IT IS NOT GOING TO LAST! GET IN ON THIS WHILE YOU CAN!!!


THANKS FOR LOOKING!

AND
THANKS SO MUCH FOR SHOPPING WITH
BIG MOMMA!!!\

Well, as I was writing the ad for this very cool, very DODGE truck, I was sitting in hospital, waiting for my friend to have her baby... YEA, NEW BABY GIRL!!! BOOO... I wrote Chevy in the description!!! lol
It is too funny not to be true... Every so often a male nurse would come in to check on mama, and we would talk trucks (he saw that I was working on E-Bay) and I told him that I had a Chevy 1500... it was midnight... I was tired... so there ya have it... There has not been a new hybrid Chevy Dodge created- though, wouldn't that be cool???
IT IS A 1997 DODGE SHORT BED RED 4 WHEEL DRIVE PICK EM UP TRUCK!!!!!

THANK YOU, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!

NHTSA investigating Ram 1500 models for rear differential failure

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and its Ram brand following a number of reports regarding the 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 pickup. According to 15 consumer complaints, the trucks' rear differential locked up while in other cases, the driveshaft separated at its connection to the diff.
Nearly half of the reports claim the truck was traveling at or above 50 miles per hour, while two consumers reported that the diff lockup/driveshaft separation sent their pickups into a spin. Most troubling, though, is that consumers reported little to no sound indicating there was a problem with their truck.
We reached out to Ram for additional information, such as how many vehicles may be affected or what equipment might be fitted that could cause the issue. Unfortunately, the company wasn't willing to elaborate on specifics.

Motorweek goes retro with '80s hot hatch shootout

Mon, 03 Nov 2014

Motorweek's decades of history on television make it the perfect medium to look back into the automotive past and see how things are different now. It recently added old road test videos to its YouTube channel of the Acura NSX and Toyota Supra, as well as the Ferrari F40. For one of its newest flashback clips, Motorweek has exhumed an affordable five-car challenge of 1986's premiere hot hatches.
By today's standards, this is an eclectic field that features fondly remembered classics like the Volkswagen GTI 16-valve and Acura Integra. However, it also throws in some nearly forgotten contenders like the Dodge Colt Turbo and Ford Escort GT. The angular Toyota Corolla FX16 GT-S rounds out the group.
It's fascinating to watch Motorweek run the quintet through the slalom, down the drag strip and on various roads. What's most striking in this clip is the difference in the definition of a performance car between then and now. With its 16-valve, 1.8-liter four-cylinder, the GTI is the burliest of the contenders with 123 horsepower, but it still takes 8.8 seconds to reach 60 miles per hour. By today's standards, that would make it a plain-jane economy car, and not even a particularly quick one.

eBay Find of the Day: 1994 Dodge Viper RT/10 with 504 miles

Tue, 26 Nov 2013

It's typically hard to find early examples of the Dodge Viper that haven't been crashed or modified, but one eBay seller has a showroom-fresh version of the V10 roadster up for sale worthy of an eBay Find of the Day.
With just 504 miles on the odometer (according to the description and not the images) and "no defects at all," this 1994 Viper is a rare find indeed. Tack on the Buy It Now price of just $37,500 and it seems like a steal - especially when checking out the prices and conditions of other early Vipers currently listed on eBay.
Even after spending months ogling the all-new 2014 SRT Viper, it's hard to ignore the raw beauty of the original open-top model. From the three-spoke wheels to the calf-searing side pipes, everything about this Viper looks just the way it did when it rolled off the line almost 20 years ago. The seller even says that the top and windows have never been installed meaning there are no scratches anywhere on this car!
