The last Dodge trucks ever made that were bigger than a 1-Ton were in 1977 and here is a Very Rare and Special Opportunity for you to own what maybe the Coolest and most Unique Dodge Truck you're ever going to see!

This Awesome 1977 Dodge D-700 Custom Race Car Hauler was built and owned by the Legendary Stock Car Driver and Race Team Owner Cotton Owens!

Cotton built this truck for his own personal use in 1987 starting with a 1977 D700 Cab and Chassis then extending the frame to a 240" wheelbase then installing a 1980 Club Cab section using the original D700 front clip.

Cotton used the 413 engine and the 5-Speed transmission from his D800 Race Car Hauler to put in this truck and used a 2-Speed Hi-Lo Rearend.  He also designed and built the 23'X8' Hauler bed and installed the twin 100 Gallon Aluminum gas tanks and the newer style 10-Lug 22.5" Polished Aluminum Budd Wheels.

Cotton used this truck often over many years before selling it to his buddy and fellow Winston Cup driver Neil Castles in 1996 who used the truck in his business transporting cars for the motion picture industry until selling it in 2010.  

The Max GVW Rating for the truck is 25,500lbs and so a CDL liscense is not required.  The truck is in very good running and driving condition although it could use a set of new tires in the near future.  My plans for what I wanted to use the truck for have changed since buying it and now is a Great Opportunity for someone to own this Very Special Truck that has a lot of Very Interesting History behind it!  The Challenger Convertible on the truck is so you can have an idea on the size of the bed.  There is more than enough room to haul a car as long as a Superbird and still have plenty of room left on the bed for hauling a golf cart / ATV. 

The Challenger in not included with the truck in this auction but is available for sale.  It is a Real Deal #'s Matching 6-Pack 4-Speed car that's loaded with all the options one could order and has its original Broadcast Sheet to prove it! 

If you have any questions about the truck please give me a call at (405) 203-4441 or email me at: pentastarcars@cox.net

Mopar '14 teased, returns to Challenger

Wed, 16 Oct 2013

Every year, Mopar selects one special vehicle from the Chrysler portfolio and creates its own, one-off, special edition. Previously, there was the Mopar '13 Dart, '12 300, '11 Charger and the '10 Challenger, and for 2014, this teaser image shows that the company will be giving the unique treatment to Dodge's muscle coupe yet again.
Mopar has not revealed any details about its '14 Challenger, though the brand's president and CEO, Pietro Gorlier, says that "This limited-edition ride is for muscle-car fans who love high octane and customizable performance." All we know is, it's white, has some blue stripes, and a black (or carbon fiber) rear spoiler.
We'll know more when the Mopar '14 Challenger is revealed at the SEMA show in early November. In the meantime, click the image above to check out the teaser in high resolution, and have a look below for Chrysler's official press blast.

2013 Dodge Challenger V6 recalled for fire risk, owners asked not to drive

Sun, 17 Mar 2013

Chrysler has issued a recall for the V6 version of the 2013 Dodge Challenger (as pictured above in 2012MY) over the possibility of a wiring harness that could short circuit and lead to a fire. Owners of these V6 Challengers built from November 2012 through January 2013 are being urged to contact dealers immediately and, in the meantime, not to drive their cars or park in or near any buildings.
Chrysler estimates around 2,500 potentially affected Challengers are in owners' hands, while another 1,900 are still sitting on dealer lots. The total number of recalled vehicles is 4,459.
So far, Chrysler says that seven fires have been reported - none resulting in injuries. The company is instructing vehicle owners to contact their dealer to find out if their vehicle is included in the recall, but owners can also find the build date information of their vehicle by checking the label in the driver's door jamb.

Chrysler recalling 31k SUVs and vans

Fri, 06 Jun 2014

Chrysler is issuing recalls covering roughly 31,700 vehicles worldwide due to two separate problems. In both cases the company believes that most of the affected vehicles are either still on, or in transit to, dealer lots.
One recall covers roughly 10,700 Dodge Durango, Jeep Cherokee, Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee SRT models from the 2014 model year built between January 16 and April 17, 2014. The SUVs need a software update for the cruise control. It's possible that when the cruise is on and the driver presses on the throttle, the acceleration could last a second after the pedal is released or two seconds for the SRT. Afterward, they return to the speed originally set by the driver.
Chrysler says it isn't aware of any accidents, injuries or even reported incidents of this happening in the real world. Also, in all cases, if the driver presses on the brake, the cruise shuts off. The automaker believes that there are about 6,100 affected SUVs in the US, 950 in Canada, 425 in Mexico and 3,200 outside of North America. The software upgrade will be ready shortly, the company says.
