2004 Dodge Ram Rumble Bee

 

Number 1636 Rumble Bee HEMI Only 66780 Miles!

 

Up for auction is this super nice 2004 Dodge Ram Rumble Bee edition number 1636.  This Bee is a show winner with all of the factory trim offered with the Rumble Bee option as well as many details that I have added to make sure that this Bee stands out even in a crowd of its own kind.  Over the last 2 years the Bee has placed at every show I have entered.  Turns heads every time with out fail.  If you don’t want to be noticed this is not the truck for you! 

 

This Bee has only 66780 miles. It has been kept in the dry all of its life and I know that it has not even been caught in the rain in over a year.  The exterior of the Bee shows very nicely with all of the standard trim offered in the package by Dodge.  Several things have been added to go even further and set this Bee out from the rest.  Black headlights have been installed that really give the Bee a sinister look.  A black aluminum gas cap cover compliments the black trim against the bright yellow paint.  A Trail FX fiberglass tonneau cover in the factory yellow and matching black stripe extensions have been added giving the Bee Mopar muscle stance and style.  The factory ground effects have been modified with stripe extensions and the exhaust cut out has been removed to give the Bee a complete Rumble Bee tail stripe from the pavement on one side to another while the Flowmaster exhaust is terminated just even with the ground effects out of sight while keeping the Hemi sound present.  Other details include a black aluminum Hemi license plate frame, black aluminum Mopar valve stem caps and matching yellow brake calipers with Mopar logo.  The wheels are factory aluminum 20’s not plated but aluminum with Good Year Wrangler HP 275/60/20 tires having excellent tread. 

 

The engine is the Chrysler 5.7 liter Hemi.  Anything else need to be said?  The engine is stock but I have added a Vararam true ram air intake system.  The Vararam has a Six Pack style air filter system that is plumbed directly to the front of the truck with air intake ports directly under the grille in the bumper.  Now that is true fresh air intake.  This air system was $379 as ordered but I had the air cleaner lid painted to match the bright yellow and capture the black stripe and Rumble Bee logo, one off, you won’t see another.

 

The suspension of the Bee has been modified to level the stance giving it an aggressive, fast and powerful look.  The rear end was lowered to level things out using a 4” axle flip kit.  All four corners were measured with final tweeks made at the coil springs.  The ride is great, stiff where it needs to be with very little body roll. 

 

The interior is excellent with the factory Rumble Bee trim.  The audio has been very tastefully upgraded.  A Pioneer Premier DEH-P610BT with HD radio, satellite, Bluetooth and USB is at the head.  MB Quart mids and highs, Planet subs, Planet and Alpine amps.  Very clean.  The center seat is not used with the current audio system.  There is a small tear in the seat as well as a worn spot on the factory floor mat.

 

Other things, and I am sure I have forgotten some, include the hood scoop ladder stripe that I never installed goes with it, the truck cover in the bed goes with it (please cover her up), Mopar tow package and tinted windows.  The SLT options; PW, PL, PM, Tilt, Cruise, PDS, sliding rear window, on board computer, etc. 

 

This truck has been close to me for many years belonging to family friends.  It has been a daily driver and does have the small bumps and bruises that one would expect of a 10 year old driver.  The truck has had one repaint due to clear coat that I am aware of.  There are some rock chips that have been touched up with factory paint.  The bed has been used sparingly.  There is a mark from the latch of the bed cover on the tail gate not visible unless the cover is raised.  It is in excellent shape with only 66k however.  I have driven the Bee on a couple of 700 mile trips with no issue.  I have a clear Tennessee title in hand. 

 

I am willing to meet the winning bidder within 75 miles of Shelbyville Tn.  I would entertain other delivery options and related fees but these arrangements must be made prior to auction’s end.  Winning bidder will pay $500.00 deposit via Paypal within 24 hours of auction’s end.  Final payment options are to be set within 48 hours of auction’s end. This truck is used and sold as is, where is.  Mileage could change slightly by auctions end.  This truck is for sale locally and I reserve the option to end this auction at any time.

Aficionauto drives Vin Diesel's fast and furious 1970 Dodge Charger

Mon, 15 Sep 2014

The Aficionauto host Christopher Rutkowski has a real passion for original and replica cars from movies and television, whether they are from James Bond, Jurassic Park, or incredibly obscure Japanese shows. However, he might have outdone himself this time because he hopped into one of the biggest automotive stars of contemporary cinema. This 1970 Dodge Charger appeared in Fast & Furious and came back in Fast Five, where Paul Walker actually drove it. The menacing, black muscle car will make its return to the franchise in the seventh film, too.
The Fast and Furious Charger is a real beast no matter how you look at it. The interior is nothing more than two seats and a roll cage, and as the video shows, this thing vibrates constantly like a coiled mass of muscle ready to strike. The camera can barely stay in place most of the time. Also, Dom's Dodge is more than happy to do a smoky burnout and leave the driver partially deaf afterward from its wonderful, ear-splitting engine roar.
The Aficionauto also interviews the man who controls the keys to this beast. Bob Hartwig was once an F-15 pilot, but he also loved Hollywood vehicles. Now, he's a partner at Picture Car Warehouse, a company with about 850 cars that supplies vehicles to film studios. This Charger definitely seems to be Hartwig's favorite in the collection, as it should be.

Chrysler killing off the 200 Convertible, Dodge Avenger

Sun, 23 Feb 2014

When Chrysler rolled out the first-generation 200 to replace the Sebring range in 2010, it included replacements for both the sedan and the convertible. The Sebring Coupe, however, was left out of the mix. And now that the second-generation Chrysler 200 is descending upon us, Auburn Hills is paring things down even further. But this time, it's the convertible that reportedly isn't making the cut. Shame, too, since the rendering above shows what could have been quite an attractive droptop.
As our compatriots at Edmunds point out, sales of the convertible model accounted for less than five percent of overall Chrysler 200 sales, and at those numbers, the considerable cost of engineering a new drop-top couldn't be justified. With the Toyota Camry Solara and Volkswagen Eos also gone from the market (well, the VW isn't gone quite yet), the discontinuation of the Chrysler 200 Convertible leaves the affordable convertible segment largely to the sportier likes of the Ford Mustang and Chevy Camaro and smaller European offerings like the Mini Cooper and VW Beetle.
The Chrysler 200 Convertible isn't the only derivative being left behind with the new model: so too is the Dodge Avenger. That will leave a glaring hole in the Dodge lineup, with nothing to bridge the gap between the compact Dart and the larger Charger. Whether the Dodge brand has any plans to replace the Avenger with another model, not to be based on the 200, remains to be seen.

Why the Charger Hellcat can't be ordered with a manual transmission

Sun, 16 Nov 2014

Fans of truly irreverent amounts of horsepower will find lots to love in the form of the 2015 Dodge Challenger and Charger Hellcat models. Both of them send 707 ridiculous horsepower to the rear wheels; the only question is whether you want your absurdity delivered with two or four doors. Oh, and whether or not you want the option of a manual transmission.
If you prefer rowing your own gears, the choice is made for you; there is no manual gearbox option available on the Charger Hellcat, or any Charger model at all, for that matter. Wonder why? Well, besides the fact that almost nobody - sorry, clutch fans, but it's true - would choose to buy a Charger with a manual transmission, that is? The answer, according to an industry insider in a post written on Jalopnik's Opposite Lock forum, is the floorpan.
It's probably not a surprise to most of our readers that the Dodge Challenger and Charger share a large portion of their chassis structure, which is codenamed LX at Chrysler, but there are still some significant differences under the skin due to the shorter wheelbase and two-door coupe bodyshell of the Challenger, as opposed to the sedan shape of the Charger. One of the differences is the floorpan, the huge chunk of sheetmetal that makes up the floor of the car and props up such essential items as the car's seats.
