1987 Dodge Dakota Base Standard Cab Pickup 2-door 3.9l on 2040-cars
Dundalk, Maryland, United States
|
We have a 1987 Dodge Dakota 2WD reg. cab, long bed pickup for sale. It is equipped with the 3.9 L V-6 engine, A/T, P/S, P/D/B, & A/C (not working, compressor locked up). It is currently tagged & driven almost every day, on Maryland Street Rod tags. We bought it to pull the motor & transmission to put in her 1951 Studebaker, but the truck is so solid I couldn't bring myself to tear it apart. Instead, we bought 2 brand new front fenders (which had most of the major rust on the truck), and a brand new chrome rear step bumper (which had the rest of the rust). The pictures will show it is a very solid body, the only rust remaining is a spot on top of the drivers door rocker panel (see picture), the passenger side rear cab corner (see picture), and the passenger side rear wheel well on the bed (see picture). The drivers side rear wheel well is just starting to rust, but has not come through yet. The only rust not shown is around the windshield, pin holes that do leak when it rains. I have it taped over with electrical tape, which stops the leak & almost looks like sealing trim. The tires are in fair / good condition, the fronts could probably be replaced. It would make an excellent street rod / pro street pickup project for someone who was looking for a project, or could be used as it is. I have a '93 5.2 L (318) Magnum V-8 I had kicked around putting in it after we pulled the V-6 that could go along with the truck if wanted. It would be a bolt-in swap for the V-6. All the glass is good (very small chip in the windshield), the door winders work properly, and it has a rear slider window. We recently drove the truck, loaded with parts, to the Chryslers at Carlisle meet and back, so it is road worthy. BUT, if I were going a long distance, I WOULD trailer it. I'm just not that confident with the front tires. Transportation of this truck IS the buyers responsibility. Rear brakes & parking brake cables were just done, and we bought a new pair of front coil springs that are included. That's about all I can think of for now. If you have any questions, or want any more information, give us a call at 410-952-5919 and we'll be glad to answer you. We have started the truck at the lowest price we will accept with no reserve, but we reserve the right to stop the listing at any time due to it being for sale locally. P.S. - I started to swap over the interior (beige bench seat) with the blue bucket seat interior out of the 1993 Dakota parts truck we had (where the engine came from). MOST of the trim panels have not been installed yet, but ARE included with the truck (as is the stock bench seat if wanted). I have installed the inside remote control mirrors off the '93. The last 3 pictures are of the short bed off of the '93. It is included (if wanted) for the patch panels for the long bed. |

Chrysler recalling 49K Chargers for headlight components
Fri, 14 Mar 2014Chrysler has issued a recall for about 49,375 2011 and 2012 Dodge Chargers with halogen headlamps due to a problem with the lights. The automaker says that there could be an issue with the jumper harness and other related components.
The automaker says that 43,450 cars are affected in the US, 2,850 in Canada, 375 in Mexico and 2,700 outside of North America. The vehicles will have their headlight assemblies, including the jumper harnesses and bulbs, inspected and potentially replaced. Dodge says that its engineers investigated reports of that were similar to what was found when it recalled about 10,000 police Chargers in 2012 for overheating light components. There have been no injuries or accidents related to fault, according to Chrysler.
The automaker will be in contact with affected owners, and schedule the service. Naturally, any repairs will be free of charge. Scroll down for the company's full announcement.
Chrysler celebrates 30 years of minivans with special editions
Tue, 03 Sep 2013It's been known by many names: the Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge Caravan, Plymouth Voyager, Chrysler Voyager, Lancia Voyager, Volkswagen Routan, Ram Cargo Van... but the bottom line is that Chrysler's minivans have defined the segment for 30 years now. In fact, Chrysler says it has sold 13 million of them since 1983, helped along by the Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan that accounted for nearly half of all minivans sold in the United States just last year. So to celebrate this three-decade milestone, the Auburn Hills auto has announced a pair of new special editions.
The 2014 Chrysler Town & Country 30th Anniversary Edition starts the Touring-L trim and includes such special touches as 17-inch wheels, unique badging, available Granite Crystal Pearl paint and an interior decked out in black Alcantara and Nappa leather, piano black trim and all the optional bells and whistles bundled in.
The 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan 30th Anniversary Edition, meanwhile, starts off with either the SE or SXT trims and also upgrades with 17-inch alloys as well as color-keyed mirrors and an interior with silver stitching, piano black trim, power everything, and of course, those special badges.
2015 Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack
Fri, 24 Oct 2014We all knew That Kid. As a freshman, he was a big kid, overweight but surprisingly strong. Still, he was often picked on for his size. Then, he chatted with the football coach, who convinced him that his true calling was on the team's offensive line. After a season on the freshman squad and a summer of two-a-days, this mild-mannered, husky high schooler returned for his sophomore year as a big, imposing, solid piece of muscle. Needless to say, the same bullies that picked on him were praying he'd forgotten about them as a 10th grader.
That's the V8-powered 2015 Dodge Challenger. It arrived on the scene with a max of 425 horsepower and a bit of a weight problem. It completed its proverbial freshman year with a nice 2011 refresh, where the SRT8 was bumped up to 470 hp, but it still had some work to do.
Enter 2015, and fresh off three months of constant burpees and wind sprints, the newest Challenger is as big and powerful as it's ever been, but it's now got poise and potential, and my goodness, it's fun in a way that Dodge's muscle car has never been.
