THIS AUCTION IS FOR A TOTALLY BADASS 1973 DODGE POWER WAGON 4X4. IT HAS 84,441 MILES AND RUNS GREAT. I WILL DO MY BEST TO LIST ALL THE FEATURES AS WELL AS THE DEFECTS. THE VAN HAS A BRAND NEW INTERIOR WITH WOOD PANELING ON THE WALLS AND CEILING AND GRAY CARPET ON THE FLOOR. IT HAS A BRAND NEW ROOF VENT. WE HAD THE 2 FRONT CABIN SEATS REUPHOLSTERED IN A DARK GREY CLOTH WITH BLACK VINYL FOLDING ARMRESTS. WE INSTALLED A BRAND NEW WINDSHIELD AND ALL OTHER GLASS IS GOOD EXCEPT THE RIGHT MIDDLE WINDOW WHICH IS TAPED UP. THIS WINDOW SHOULD BE VERY EASY AND CHEAP TO REPLACE. THE TIRES ARE 33 X 12.5 X R15 AND ARE IN VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH A LOT OF TREAD. I HAD A LINE ON A SET OF 35'S WITH GREAT RUBBER FOR $200 SO IF YOU ARE INTERESTED AND THEY ARE STILL AVAILABLE WE CAN WORK SOMETHING OUT. THEY WILL TOTALLY FIT AND IT LOOKS PRETTY RAD WITH THE EXTRA 2" LIFT. THERE IS NO SPARE TIRE INCLUDED WITH THIS VEHICLE. IT HAS A CUSTOM 8" LIFT AND HANDLES REALLY WELL. THE WHEELS ARE 15" EAGLE ALLOYS AND ARE IN VERY GOOD CONDITION.THE VEHICLE HAS A TOW HITCH AND REAR LADDER.IT HAS DUAL EXHAUST AND SOUNDS REALLY GOOD. THE VAN HAS TWO FUEL TANKS WITH A SWITCH DOWN BY THE DRIVERS SEAT FOR THOSE REALLY LONG TRIPS. IT HAS STEEL HORSE SIDE-STEPS FOR BOTH THE DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER DOORS. THE VAN HAS A GT GRANT STEERING WHEEL. THERE IS NO RADIO INSTALLED BUT WE CAN THROW IN A LATE MODEL CD / STEREO. IT HAS A CUSTOM FRONT BUMPER / BRUSH GUARD WITH A WENCH AND KC LIGHTS AND A CUSTOME CHROME GRILLE. BOTH THE WENCH AND KC LIGHTS ARE IN WORKING CONDITION BUT THE WENCH NEEDS A BATTERY AND REMOTE AND THE KC LIGHTS NEED TO BE WIRED IN ( EVERYTHING IS THERE ). THE ENGINE IS A 360 CID / V8. IT HAS AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WITH FOUR WHEEL DRIVE. WE INSTALLED A NEW BATTERY AND HAD A BASIC SERVICE DONE ( OIL AND FILTER CHANGES, BRAKES, AND FLUIDS ) THIS THING RUNS GREAT AND IS SUPER FUN TO DRIVE.THE FEW MINOR ISSUES I FOUND WITH IT ARE THE RIGHT MIDDLE WINDOW LIKE I MENTIONED, SMALL CRACK IN LEFT BRAKELIGHT, THE REAR DOOR LOCK IS MISSING, AND AS OF RIGHT NOW THE DRIVERS DOOR ONLY OPENS FROM THE INSIDE. THIS ONLY STARTED A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO SO I DON'T THINK ITS ANYTHING MAJOR. MAYBE A CLIP RATTLED LOOSE OR SOMETHING. IT DOES HAVE SOME RUST. MOSTLY SURFACE THROUGHOUT BUT SOME BAD SPOTS ON THE ROOF. WHEN WE WERE THINKING OF GOING FULL RESTO WITH THIS THING WE WERE GONNA HAVE THE ROOF CUT AND INSTALL ONE OF THOSE POP UP CAMPER TOPS. THAT WOULD SOLVE 99% OF THE PROBLEM BUT IF THATS NOT YOUR THING THERE ARE A LOT OF GREAT RUST ABATEMENT GUYS AROUND. I THINK THATS EVERYTHING BUT I DO HAVE TO STATE VEHICLE IS BEING SOLD AS IS. IT IS FOR LOCAL PICKUP ONLY BUT WE WOULD BE HAPPY TO WORK WITH YOUR SHIPPING AGENT AND DO WHATEVER WE CAN TO HELP YOU OUT.THE VAN IS LOCATED IN CAMARILLO, CALIFORNIA 93012. PLEASE EMAIL ME THROUGH EBAY IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SCHEDULE A TEST DRIVE, HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, OR JUST WANT TO COME KICK THE TIRES. THANKS FOR TAKING THE TIME TO LOOK AND GOOD LUCK.

Chrysler investing $20M in Toledo plant to support 9-speed auto production
Sun, 28 Apr 2013In 2011, Chrysler announced a $72-million investment in its Toledo Machining Plant to modernize production of the eight- and nine-speed torque-converters for automatic transmissions made there. That upgrade work won't be finished until Q3 of this year, but Chrysler has already announced a further $19.6-million investment to increase production capacity for the nine-speeders.
The extra units will be necessary because the nine-speed transmission they'll be mated to is going into three popular models: it will debut on the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, then go into the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Dart. The company predicted that this year alone it would sell 200,000 units equipped with the nine-speed tranny, and it is spending some $374 million in addition to the investment in Toledo to upgrade production capacity for it.
The work attached to this new investment won't begin until Q3 of 2014, and it will be finished by the end of that year. There's a press release below with all the details.
1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express in Generation Gap showdown with 1933 Ford Pickup
Fri, 18 Jul 2014Auto enthusiasts love a good debate, whether it's Mustang versus Camaro or Ferrari against Lamborghini. But how about a battle between two very different vintages of classic pickup trucks? In this case, the fight is between a 1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express and a 1933 Ford Model 46 truck with a flathead V8.
The shootout comes courtesy of the internet series Generation Gap, and its concept is super-simple. One guy prefers classics, and the other likes newer rides. They choose a category, pick two vehicles and put them head to head. In this case, neither is exactly modern, though. The Ford is more than old enough to receive Social Security checks, and the Dodge is hardly a young whippersnapper.
Other than both being pickups, these two models were made to serve very different functions. The Li'l Red Express was basically the progenitor of today's muscle trucks, with a big V8 that made it one of the quickest new models in its day (admittedly, 1979 was a rough time for automotive performance). On the other hand, the '33 Ford was just meant to work, with little pretense for anything else. One of the hosts describes it as "the simplest, most difficult" vehicle he's driven because of the tricky double clutchwork necessary to shift gears. Scroll down to watch the video and try to decide which of these two American classics you would rather have in your garage.
Dodge shows can-do attitude with grand Can'avan sculpture
Fri, 01 Nov 2013There are lots of ways to celebrate an important birthday, and all of them are well deserved. You can throw a big party, buy yourself something nice, or - if you're the altruistic type - do something for others in need. The latter is how Chrysler has opted to mark the 30th anniversary of its Dodge Grand Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country.
Together with hunger-advocacy organization Canstruction, the Chrysler Foundation has built a full-scale replica of the Grand Caravan out of 30,000 food cans in the square at the corner of Yonge and Dundas in Toronto, a ways down the highway from where the real vans are built in Windsor. The sculpture was built over the course of 10 hours by 30 volunteers and was displayed earlier this week.
Now the installation is being taken down, and the cans of food are being donated to the Daily Bread Food Bank, which will assemble them into 2,000 food baskets to be distributed to those in need through its network of 200 food banks across the Canadian metropolis. Check out a neat time-lapse video of the build and the press release below.
