For auction My 79' LIL RED EXPRESS. This is the real deal not a clone. Really cool truck, I get the thumbs up everywhere I go. I cant go out and get a cup of coffee without someone trying to start a conversation about it. These trucks sell for 15k+ restored. The engine is a 1969 340HP that came from a 70' Dart I still have. Engine is blueprinted and when the tires hook up it puts you hard in the seat. (I have video of the truck running) I had a 3:91 Suregrip rear built for the truck which blends perfectly with the 4-speed overdrive from a 78 Roadrunner and had a custom driveshaft made for the assembly. I took the pedals and linkage from a standard shift Dodge Ram of simular year. The shifter is from a bench seat 70 RR and fits the truck perfect. The truck is currently on the road and I use on days off to run errands. I purchased this truck a few years ago with no motor and transmission for $5500 and have probably another 5k in it on top of that. I need to sell because I'm closing on property and need the cash for development. I will consider trades but they would have to be lopsided on my half. The truck does have a aged paint job wich I love because I can use it for everything, No worrying about mudpuddle or muddy boots. Bed wood was replaced with aluminum diamond plate but bones super solid if you wanted to put wood back in. Fenders and doors have body filler and would need to be replaced if you wanted to restore the truck. Cab floors were replaced at some point in its life. The truck is a driver but needs odds and ends, some weatherstripping needs replacing, windshield is foggy around the edge, some of dash gauges dont work, blinkers blink fast etc.. I'm listing the truck with no reserve. I have the truck for sale locally for $5500
I'm looking for a quick sale so money talks. If truck is shipped all funds must clear before truck gets released. Winning bidder is responsible for shipping or local pick-up. Truck must be paid in full within 7 days of auction ending, No exceptions!

The final-year Viper special editions sold out so fast Dodge is adding more
Fri, Jul 1 2016Viper collectors don't mess around. After Dodge opened ordering for its 25th anniversary 2017 Viper models – some of the last ones that will be built – all of the cars were spoken for in just five days. The company managed to sell 206 cars, an average of about 41 per day. Compare that to the 241 Vipers sold through May of this year and you can see why special editions make good business sense. Demand was so strong that Dodge will add a sixth special-edition for the Viper's last year of production. Within the group of five initial special packages, the winner was the 1:28 Edition ACR; all 28 went in 40 minutes. Dodge sold the 31 VooDoo II Edition ACRs in two hours, while 25 Snakeskin Edition GTCs and 100 GTS-R Commemorative Edition ACRs took two days to sell out. The 22 Dodge Dealer Edition ACRs took five days – apparently the dealers were too busy taking orders for the other 184 cars they didn't have time to order their own. The additional anniversary car is called the Snakeskin ACR. Dodge will build "up to" 31 of them, which we're pretty sure means exactly 31 if the previous demand is any indicator. The count matches the 2010 run of Snakeskin ACRs and will take the final-edition total to 237. We don't have any photos of that one yet, but you can get a good idea of what it will look like from the Snakeskin GTC. This one features Snakeskin Green paint, obviously, with a custom snakeskin-patterned SRT stripe, the ACR Package, the Extreme Aero Package, carbon-ceramic brakes, the ACR interior, a serialized Snakeskin badge on the instrument panel, and a custom car cover with the owner's name by the door. It will be available to order in the middle of this month, which means it will be sold out well by the end of the month. Chances are these and many of the others will go to mega-collectors like Wayne and D'Ann Rauh of Texas, who, at last count, owned 79 Vipers. Seventy-nine. Like we said, Viper collectors don't mess around. Related Video:
Vin Diesel and Dodge finally make the partnership official
Mon, May 1 2017Thanks to The Fast and the Furious franchise, actor Vin Diesel is nearly synonymous with muscle cars, in particular those from Dodge and SRT. The partnership is finally official, with Diesel appearing in a number of new ads for the automaker. Three new spots, titled "Rally Cry," "Monsters," and "Shepherd," showcase Dodge's entire product line, including the nearly forgotten Journey crossover. We can only assume it's taken the Viper's place in the automaker's lineup, as the soon departed coupe is nowhere to be seen. This content is hosted by a third party.

Presumably, Dodge felt three months of teasers and a good bit of New York Auto Show coverage were sufficient advertisement for the car. Plus, we can't count on the Demon to go around a corner the same way that some of the cars in this ad do. It's hard to turn with two wheels in the air. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. Advertisement or not, it's always great to hear a soundtrack of big, V8 muscle. Plus, this only further feeds into Vin Diesel v. The Rock, as the latter has been promoting Ford products for the past few years. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.

121k Dodge Darts being investigated over braking problem
Mon, Jun 22 2015The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is investigating the Dodge Dart due to reports of braking problems. Some 121,000 cars are possibly affected, all from the 2013 model year. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA received 18 complaints about the brake pedal becoming hard to depress on these cars, increasing stopping distance. Drivers reported hearing a "pop noise or an air hissing noise when applying the brake pedal, followed by a hard pedal feel and reduced brake effectiveness," NHTSA told the News. In a particularly terrifying incident, one driver says the Dart's braking system shut down while driving at 50 miles per hour. "I feared for my life. It is one of the scariest things I have ever dealt with," the complaint said, according to The Detroit News. A Fiat-Chrysler spokesperson said the automaker is "fully cooperating" with this investigation.
