Every once in awhile a RARE truck comes on the market this1933 Dodge pickup truck is no exception and its waiting for the right owner near Orange County, CA  

Perfect condition and the coolest old truck on the market. Frame off restoration, professionally built engine, 3 deuce carb set up, lokar floor shifter, baby moon gauges, all name brand and new parts. Ididit tilt column, Ron Francis wiring, GM disc brake kit on the front, New GM Drums on the rear. Dropped axle front and 2inch drop in the rear. Leaf springs with shock adapters kits on front and rear. Vega - Flaming river FR1500 steering box - too much too list. Meticulous records and receipts. 

This gorgeous pickup has lots of first class work and parts. A chromed, 3 deuce carburetor set atop a 327 Small Block Chevy creating approx 300HP that is passed through a turbo 400 transmission. A 9-inch Ford rear end with 2.79 gears plants the power to the street and gets you cruising. Handles excellent at 80MPH.

The red leather interior features tuck and roll design on the bench seat and through the door panels, even behind the seat. A custom dash with contrasting baby moon gauges dominates the cockpit while the controls for the aftermarket heating unit reside below.

The exterior stance has been modified, 2-inch chopped top (notice it was done so the back window kept it's original size), design elements and trim parts such as the red grille with the original Dodge Brothers badge, steel wire wheels, hubcaps, and rear roll pan all help keep the traditional hot rod vibe despite the obvious high-end professional finish throughout the entire truck. The truck does not boast power steering but a new aftermarket steering box, the goal was to keep it a fancy rat rod / 50’s style hot rod. Overall the truck drives and handles great (no play in the steering wheel) and the suspension feel is tight with plenty of stopping power. The tilt column is a new ididit and lokar floor shifter.

The entire truck is steel and the body work took over 7 months. No bondo and nothing but straight lines on all the door jams/seams. 6 layers of clear coat later and the shine is memorizing. The front suspension features disc brakes and a dropped bell axle with leaf springs and shocks. The rear is leaf with shocks and drum brakes. This truck is complete and rebuilt with love.

This truck has been is insured for $60,000.  You can make a deal for $44,500.

Comes with an extra set of custom offset new American racing 5-spoke (matte center with large chrome lip) wheels and tires. They are 2 inches larger than the current wire wheels @ 17"x7" rear with a deep dish chrome lip.

This truck was purchased from the original owner prior to being rebuilt, he was in his late eighties at the time - It has quite a story. The old timer was a traveling salesman who made regular trips from Seattle, Washington to New York City; he went through 4 engines on this truck. When we asked him how many miles he thought were on it, he replied with a straight face “at least a million.”

A similar truck with a hemi sold for $62,500 - not a hard modification and brings instant equity.

Serious inquiries only. We kept complete documentation on almost  every part installed down to the spark plugs.

Dodge Durango gets the Blacktop treatment

Sat, 09 Aug 2014

The Dodge Durango is getting a meaner, more aggressive look as it becomes the latest model from the brand to wear the Blacktop Appearance Package. The upgrades are strictly cosmetic, but they lend the SUV a more assertive demeanor that some buyers like.
Available on the SXT, Limited and R/T (shown above) models, all Blacktop Durangos get black 20-inch wheels, dual exhaust, bod- color fascia and gloss black trim. The grille surround, air dam, mirrors and headlight surrounds all get the inky treatment, as well. The improvements add $1,590 to the cost of the SXT. They come to $1,990 on the Limited but also include HID headlights with LED running lights and a leather interior. Finally, R/T buyers only need to pay $295 for the upgrades. The Blacktop Durango hits showrooms this October.
If you're already in the market for a Durango but want a dash more style with no added performance, the Blacktop might not be a bad way to go. It certainly gives the SUV a bit more edge than it has in stock form. Scroll down to read the full release.

2014 Dodge Durango teaser reveals new 'racetrack' taillights

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

Not wanting to let Jeep get all of the SUV attention for the 2014 model year, Dodge is unveiling a refreshed version of its Durango at the New York Auto Show. Teased in this image, all we can really tell about the 2014 Dodge Durango is that it will be getting Dodge's "racetrack" taillights similar to the Charger and Dart.
The chrome or painted strip currently between the Durango's Zorro taillamps have been removed to allow for a full-width LED array with "DODGE" lettering displayed more prominently above the license plate pocket. Parent company Chrysler also promises that the updated Durango will add "several new class-exclusive features," but stops short of saying what those are. Earlier reports suggest that among the changes, buyers will be able to look forward to an eight-speed automatic gearbox, which ought to improve the three-row SUV's fuel efficiency.

Chrysler minivans under investigation for stalling after fuel refill

Wed, 10 Sep 2014

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, at least one man has reported that his 2007 Dodge Grand Caravan stalled unexpectedly on the highway shortly after being refueled. The unidentified man who contacted NHTSA regarding the issue cited as many as eight similar instances reported by other drivers.
NHTSA has announced that it will launch an inquiry into this issue, which could affect as many as 160,000 minivans from Dodge and Chrysler that were sold in 2007 (or more, if a problem is found that extends to additional models years, we'd assume). As of yet, there's no formal investigation, let alone a recall, on these vans, as the agency is merely determining if further action is needed.
Two months ago, Chrysler recalled nearly 700,000 vehicles, the majority of which were minivans, from the 2008-2010 model years to replace ignition switches after an investigation found that their weak springs and detent positions could fool a driver into thinking the car was in the "Run" position, when it's actually in the "Accessory" position.
