Newport Beach, California, United States

 Up for bid is a: 1966  DODGE A100 Pickup Truck  with a PERFORMANCE 270 Mopar Clifford 6=8 Headers.  This is the RARE 3 Window Version (the super stock truck used for the Promotional Little Red Wagon).  This Original California Barn Find Was bought by a friend Tony in the 1990's (where it was used on a ranch in California) with plans of turning it into a Little GREEN Wagon, opting for the Original 6 cylinder to keep it stock, but add performance.  Extensive mechanical work was done on this low miles truck to have it not only be like when new but to be fast and drive like new.  Have receipts, This truck runs and drives GREAT!  All body work was done by Chuck Morris who has had his work shown in Hot Rod Magazine,  with some slight customizations eliminating vertical seam lines at rear and at the top of bed walls.  1n 2006 The truck was ready to have the exterior painted and I would complete by adding Firestone Redline tires (made by Coker) Then the interior and replace body & trim and bumpers with either NOS Mopar parts or restored original parts, Once the truck was in my hands it would hit the streets of Malibu and be driven very lightly as it was used for promoting the SJOBECK Malibu Brand of Mens Denim (an international fashion Brand).   The final details has been a slow work in progress,  preferring to only replace  original parts with  original NOS parts, so there is still minimal work to do to finish the job.  or just drive it as it is and get tons of attention and thumbs up everywhere you go,  Has Its original Sun visor posts restored and a new headliner by Acme ( I could not find OEM material on these.  Has the Super stock seats redone with a grey matched material and they look factory,  will need a speedo cable, and a pedal pad,  rubber floor mat as well a new paint to make it show as the painter did poor prep work in some areas and it did not grab in the bed and some other areas, but still looks great from ten feet.  all Pictures are current except for 1 that was shown online in the Iowa Hawk and also was shown at Fast Eddies website and on The Hundreds Streetwear clothing brand website as well.  

 Has its original Owner Card from the Chrysler corporation with vin number and specs on it and comes with current registration and a clean title! The Truck has Original California Blue and Yellow plates, it was turned to a commercial truck so the plates were changes sometime in 1970's.  

 The NEW OLD STOCK:  OEM Red tipped Wipers, arms & bezels, Washer sprayers, outside Door handles, turn lens brake and dome lens lights are OEM NOS as well as OEM NOS Back up/ plate chrome & lights,  OEM NOS headlight Bezels as well as OEM NOS turn signal switch  as well as Horn button, as you may know these parts are so Expensive when and if you can ever find them.  Now it is time for someone to enjoy this truck that I have kept in the Garage and driven under 6 thousand miles since 2006,  Please feel free to ask me any questions by calling 949-981-3690  Also Have more pictures apron request!  Since this truck is almost 50 years old  is being sold as is and sale will be final.  Thank you and happy Bidding!

Custom 2014 Dodge Durango R/T proves SEMA can be subtle

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

The annual SEMA Show in Las Vegas can often be a sensory overload of overwrought madness, with cars that don't even look drivable anymore. But every once in a while, a modestly modified show car graces our presence, like the customized Dodge Durango you see here, which, in addition to giving us our first glimpse at the aftermarket possibilities for the refreshed-for-2014 model, proves that a car doesn't have to be slammed, scooped, donked and Lambo-doored to have presence.
Sure, this Durango has custom hood inserts, dark 22-inch wheels and custom fender flares, but as far as external modifications go, that's it. Inside, Dodge has fitted new door sill guards, an ambient lighting kit, bright pedals, premium floor mats and - of course - Katzkin leather. The automaker has even added wireless internet connectivity as part of the excellent Uconnect infotainment system.
Performance upgrades are minimal on this Durango R/T, which comes packed with Chrysler's 5.7-liter Hemi V8. Larger brakes have been fitted, as have lowering springs (though it certainly doesn't look that much lower) and a custom exhaust.

Marchionne on Alfa's US return, Dodge Dart's powertrain weakness and minivan plans

Fri, 18 Jan 2013

As a reporter covering an auto show, the one opportunity you never want to miss is going to the Sergio Marchionne press briefing.
"This undertaking to bring Alfa back is a one-shot deal... We are not going to do this twice."
There just aren't that many real characters left in the auto industry. Marchionne, who sits atop both Chrysler and Fiat, is not only one of the smartest execs in the business, but also the most frank. Herein, a sample of the quotable always-sweatered executive:

Motorweek goes retro with '80s hot hatch shootout

Mon, 03 Nov 2014

Motorweek's decades of history on television make it the perfect medium to look back into the automotive past and see how things are different now. It recently added old road test videos to its YouTube channel of the Acura NSX and Toyota Supra, as well as the Ferrari F40. For one of its newest flashback clips, Motorweek has exhumed an affordable five-car challenge of 1986's premiere hot hatches.
By today's standards, this is an eclectic field that features fondly remembered classics like the Volkswagen GTI 16-valve and Acura Integra. However, it also throws in some nearly forgotten contenders like the Dodge Colt Turbo and Ford Escort GT. The angular Toyota Corolla FX16 GT-S rounds out the group.
It's fascinating to watch Motorweek run the quintet through the slalom, down the drag strip and on various roads. What's most striking in this clip is the difference in the definition of a performance car between then and now. With its 16-valve, 1.8-liter four-cylinder, the GTI is the burliest of the contenders with 123 horsepower, but it still takes 8.8 seconds to reach 60 miles per hour. By today's standards, that would make it a plain-jane economy car, and not even a particularly quick one.
