1953 Dodge 3/4 Ton Pickup on 2040-cars
Lansing, Michigan, United States
|
This 1953 Dodge Pickup was used on my family's farm up until sometime in the 1980's when it was retired. As recently as the mid 90's we were able to get the motor to turn over, but the truck has not run in years. At one point a restoration effort was started on it but we ran out of gas fairly quickly. However, it has been partially disassembled, primarily the front part of the body. All parts are in the pickup bed. There is a second set of doors included in the sale - these doors are black. I don't know a lot of details about it but I believe it is a straight 6 engine, with a "3 on the tree" manual transmission.
The truck has been stored in a barn for its entire life - that is, it has not been left outside to experience the elements but has been stored in a covered environment. It would make a good parts car for someone doing a restoration of another vehicle, or for those with enough time on their hands, a restoration project. If you have any questions that are not answered here please let me know. I will do my best to answer them. Buyer is responsible for transporting the truck from the Lansing, MI area. |

Dodge to resurrect Scat Pack?
Fri, 27 Sep 2013Before social media ever existed, if automotive enthusiasts wanted to be noticed or recognize other fans, they joined a car club. For Dodge muscle car lovers from 1968 through 1971, that group was known as the Scat Pack. Just like the Charger, Challenger and Dart nameplates, it looks like the Scat Pack could be getting a resurrection by Chrysler.
Automotive News is reporting that Chrysler recently renewed its trademark on the Scat Pack name, and while this is in no way a guarantee that the name will return, AN talked to Tim Kuniskis, Dodge President and CEO, who stoked the fire a little more. In the article, Kuniskis said that the name is "a very important part of our history" and added that "we like the whole idea of having a Scat Pack of cars." Scat Pack models were identified by their bumblebee stripes and helmet-wearing bumblebee logo, and the idea of a modern Scat Pack doesn't seem all that outlandish in light of recent vehicles like the Charger SRT Super Bee and the Ram 1500 Rumble Bee Concept.
What do you think, is this a cool idea, or is it just an unwelcome bit of nostalgia? Have you say in Comments.

Brits recreate iconic Bullitt chase scene
Tue, 13 May 2014Recreating the famous chase scene from Bullitt has become almost an art form in its own right. We've seen it done in a music video, with scale models and even in commercials. There are few films that are as defined by a single scene as the 1968 classic. Even if you don't know a single beat of the plot, the Highland Green Ford Mustang racing a Dodge Charger through the hilly streets of San Francisco is famous. It's so well known that the Silverstone Classic has created a homage to promote its celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Mustang at this year's event in July.
Filmed around the famous UK circuit, the short film generally gets the key points of the scene right. It even has a green Volkswagen Beetle that keeps reappearing, as in the movie. Unfortunately, its Steve McQueen stand-in looks a little too old for the role. While the video shortens the chase considerably, it's still great to see these '60s behemoths leaning and sliding around the track. Scroll down for a touch of nostalgia thanks to one of the greatest scenes ever in cinema - we've got both the recreation and the original chase seen from the movie waiting for you.
