1977 Dodge M880 Military Power Wagon 1 1/4 Ton 4x4 Truck V8 Automatic on 2040-cars

Year:1977 Mileage:20371

Darlington, Indiana, United States

 This is an original ex- military 1977 Dodge M880 model power wagon.  Odometer shows 20,371 miles not sure if this is original if it has turned over.  I would go with it having turned over.   Specific military model is a M887 which is part of the overall M880 military model trucks that the military uses from the late 70's to sometime in the 80s/90s. .  Truck is a 4x4 all time drive with a 318 V8 gas engine and automatic trans.  4:10 gears.  Vehicle does start right up and drive however I am primarily selling this as a RESTORATION PROJECT, not any everyday transportation vehicle.  Truck has a lot of rust as you can see in the photos.  Front fenders, doors, bedsides, and floor pans will all need attention.  Other than that if you just want an old Dodge 4x4 Truck for running around on the Farm or off road this truck would be OK for that.  There is no power steering and any other creature comforts other than power brakes so it is a bit of a beast to drive, brakes do work but are weak and will need some attention. These trucks were geared pretty low for military use so I would not count on it as an everyday transportation truck to run 60 plus MPH out on the highways.  If you are looking for a Military Vehicle to restore the Dodge M880 as a good cheap alternative to other Military Vehicles.  Easy to work on and get parts for.  I do have a clear title.  Selling this truck in as is were is condition with no warranties what so ever.  I have not driven this truck on the road since 2010 and had originally bought it for a parts truck for another Dodge M880 that I am working on but decided to not part it out.  Only thing I noticed is that when you shift into gear something in the drive train slams into gear rather harshly.  So not sure if it is U-joints or what.  However I do not notice any other noise once in gear and the truck is moving.  Missing the tailgate, front bumper is in the bed of the truck.  No other parts come with the truck.  Tires are bald.  Heavy duty reese hitch on the back.  Ask questions before bidding. Vehicle can sit for up to 30 days however payment in full needs to be made within 7 days.  Also need for the buyer to make contact within 3 days to confirm pickup plans and payment.   I work out of state during the week so prefer weekend pickup if you want to meet me in person.  Weekday pickup can be arranged but as noted I  would not be there.  Usually have my Dad to assist if during the week.   Thanks  for looking.

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.

NHTSA investigating Chrysler for airbags, ignition switches

Wed, 18 Jun 2014

Chrysler is being targeted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in a pair of actions that focus on over 1.2 million Jeeps, minivans and crossovers.
The first is a "preliminary investigation" that focuses on an airbag issue afflicting the Jeep Commander built in model years 2006 and 2007 and Grand Cherokee from 2005 to 2006. In total, 700,000 vehicles could potentially be affected. It's not entirely clear what the airbag issue is, with The Detroit Free Press simply stating that the restraint systems in the affected Jeeps may be "faulty."
The other investigation is what's called a "recall query" and it covers a problem that General Motors should be familiar with. In this case, there could be a problem with the ignition switches of 525,000 vehicles, ranging from 2008 to 2010 Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans, to the 2008 to 2010 Dodge Journey crossover. Again, it's not entirely clear what sort of behavior prompted the 32 complaints that NHTSA has received on these vehicles.

eBay Find of the Day: 1994 Dodge Viper RT/10 with 504 miles

Tue, 26 Nov 2013

It's typically hard to find early examples of the Dodge Viper that haven't been crashed or modified, but one eBay seller has a showroom-fresh version of the V10 roadster up for sale worthy of an eBay Find of the Day.
With just 504 miles on the odometer (according to the description and not the images) and "no defects at all," this 1994 Viper is a rare find indeed. Tack on the Buy It Now price of just $37,500 and it seems like a steal - especially when checking out the prices and conditions of other early Vipers currently listed on eBay.
Even after spending months ogling the all-new 2014 SRT Viper, it's hard to ignore the raw beauty of the original open-top model. From the three-spoke wheels to the calf-searing side pipes, everything about this Viper looks just the way it did when it rolled off the line almost 20 years ago. The seller even says that the top and windows have never been installed meaning there are no scratches anywhere on this car!
