1989 Dodge Dakota Sport Convertible. I am the 2nd owner of this collectors truck. I bought it in 1991 in Ohio. It was my daily driver for many years and has run perfectly. It is rust free. It has been garaged it's entire life. It has been driven very little over the last 12 years. I keep it stored and clean in my garage. I drive it twice a year and have considered selling locally at various car shows. I want to keep it original so I have not touched up some of the outside wear. In 1995 I put in a brand new transmission which has worked perfectly. Somewhere about '99 or 2000 it suffered some hail damage on the body and the convertible top. The body was repaired and the top was replaced. The bumpers and tail gate have some scuff marks that you may not be able to see in the pictures. But the vehicle runs perfectly and has no leaks. It is fully drive-able and ready for a road trip. 169,000 well maintained miles.

Fewer that 1800 Dodge Dakota Convertibles were made and far fewer are on the road today. I set my asking price by what the truck is worth as a vehicle, what it is worth to me and what the market seems to suggest the truck is worth as a collectible. Some predict the value will continue to rise as long as it stays in this condition. 

You will need to pick up the vehicle or make arrangements for delivery. I live in Southern Minnesota.

Roadkill pits every project car against each other

Sat, 22 Feb 2014

The guys behind Motor Trend's monthly Roadkill series have collected nine of their favorite project cars from their videos and pitted them against each other in a battle royale to determine a winner. It's 44 minutes long, but it's completely worth the investment of time.
The cars run the gamut from a 1973 Chevrolet Ramp Truck, a 1975 AMC Pacer and a legitimately impressive 1967 Chevy Camaro, and they are pitted against each other to see which is the fastest around an autocross course. The drivers include Roadkill's two hosts and Motor Trend's Johnny Lieberman and Carlos Lago. It's reminiscent of the best episodes of Top Gear and worth a watch.
So it's the weekend - the perfect time to relax. Grab your preferred beverage, get comfortable and enjoy 44 minutes of some seriously ratty but utterly cool project cars as they are throttled within an inch of their lives (or past it). Scroll down to check out the video.

Chrysler recalls 1.2 million Ram pickup trucks

Sat, 09 Nov 2013

Chrysler has announced that it will issue three separate recalls that will cover as many as 1.2 million Ram pickup trucks for "steering-system tie rods that may have been misaligned during assembly or steering-system service." The vast majority of these trucks were sold in the United States, though some trucks in Mexico, Canada or overseas will be called in, as well.
The largest of the three recalls covers an estimated 842,400 model-year 2003-2008 Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks. Two smaller campaigns will bring 294,000 model-year 2008-2012 Ram 2500 and 3500 pickups, chassis cabs and 2008 Ram 1500 4x4 Mega Cabs; plus 43,500 model-year 2008-2012 Ram 4500 and 5500 4x4 chassis cabs into the dealer to be checked and repaired if necessary.
This is a very large recall, and Chrysler says it is "casting the net wider than necessary to identify those vehicles that require repair." The automaker estimates that "as many as 726,000 may not need repair."

2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat revving is sonic bacon

Fri, 23 May 2014

This is the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, and we're sure that by now, you know its stats, including over 600 horsepower from its 6.2-liter, supercharged V8. What, pray tell, does that blown engine sound like, though?
At least judging on the sonic strength of this video, it's very, very dirty. Honestly, it sounds unlike anything that's come out of the Chrysler Group in a long time, if ever. It's loud, almost brutally so, with a bark that few road-going V8s can match.
Of course, you should be the final judge here. Take a look and a listen at the two videos below, one of which comes from our friends at Cars.com that provides a nice look under the hood, and then let us know what you think of the Hellcat's singing voice in Comments.
