1936 Dodge Pickup on 2040-cars
Saint Petersburg, Florida, United States
Available for sale is my 1936 Dodge Brothers Pickup. I bought this truck back in 2007 from a friend in Kentucky. My friend drove the truck down to Florida to visit his Cousin, where I first saw it. I expressed an interest in it, so when he decided to sell it, he called me and I took a trailer up to Kentucky and purchased it. I had the intention of turning it into a nostalgia old style hotrod truck. I drove it a few times after I bought it and the engine ran really nice, but the brakes were marginal at best, and the front suspension needed some work, so I stored it away in my Daughters garage. While it was hibernating, I purchased a '56 Dodge 241 hemi motor and had it professionally rebuilt for the truck. Understand though, the hemi motor is not included in this sale, only the truck as it sits. The hemi motor is available, but at a considerable additional cost. I may be willing to negotiate a price on the whole package if interested. The truck is basically as I bought it, with the exception that I removed the door windows because they had cracks in the glass. My two Grandsons like to sit in the truck and pretend driving, and I didn't want them getting cut. I did purchase new window glass, and also a new power window setup for it, and will include that in the sale, but they have not been installed. There is a dent in the right of the cab top. It occurred before I bought the truck. My friend said he accidentally dropped his cordless drill from his house roof, and it hit the truck. The dent has good exposure from the inside, so it shouldn't be too hard to persuade it out with the right body tools. I really wanted to build this truck, but I got involved in another car I purchased, and have been concentrating on it since. The car is close to completion, but I don't think I have the energy anymore to take on this truck. The pictures I have included tell the story, but I will answer any questions you may have. I am confident with a little work the engine will fire up. It ran well the last time I drove it, so with a little cleaning up, an oil change and some fresh gas it should be good to go. This would be a real nice project for someone with a little skill and patience. This truck has a clear fresh Florida Title.

SRT reveals Satin Vapor Edition 300, Charger and Challenger SRT models
Fri, 07 Feb 2014With the exception of some notable truck and van introductions, Chrysler brands have tended to use the Chicago Auto Show to bring out new special editions, pimp their aftermarket parts support or indulge in the occasional flight of fancy. That plan is holding true for 2014, as well. Cases in point are these new Satin Vapor Editions of the 2014-model-year Dodge Challenger, Dodge Charger and Chrysler 300 - all from SRT.
The Satin Vapor name may sound like a failed 1970s glam-rock band, or a pseudo-gynecological diagnosis from the Old West, but is, in fact, pretty much a tape-and-trim package for this trio of hi-po Mopars. 300, Challenger and Charger alike come shod with 20-inch aluminum wheels finished in Black Satin Vapor Chrome, and are accented with Satin Black bits aplenty. The 300 gets blacked-out mirrors, spoiler and roof; the Challenger applies it to mirrors and its fuel door; while the Charger has the stuff covering its roof, hood and Super Bee tail graphic.
Interiors of the cars have been mildly updated as well, with all three getting some combination of Nappa leather, ultra-suede and carbon-fiberish finishes.
Continental Automotive recalls 5 million airbag control units
Thu, Feb 4 2016Takata isn't the only supplier having airbag problems. Rival manufacturer Continental Automotive Systems announced a recall of 5 million airbag control units fitted to vehicles from Honda, Fiat Chrysler Automotive, Mercedes-Benz, and even a certain Chrysler-based Volkswagen. This sweeping recall has actually been in progress for some time, although the exact scope is only now becoming evident. In October of 2015, Mercedes-Benz recalled 2008 and 2009 model year C- and GLK-Class vehicles because their Continental-made airbag control units could corrode. Such a condition could cause the airbags to deploy without cause or warning, or in the event of a crash, not deploy at all. You can read all about it in our post from last year. Now, Continental's recall is going wide. Alongside the already recalled C and GLK, you've already heard about the 2008 and 2009 Honda Accord airbag recall, which we reported on yesterday. Now, Fiat Chrysler is announcing the recall of the 2009 Dodge Journey, as well as the 2008 and 2009 Dodge Grand Caravan, Chrysler Town and Country, and their rebadged counterpart, the Volkswagen Routan. Yes, one manufacturer is recalling another manufacturer's vehicle. The models listed above only amount to about 580,000 vehicles out of 5 million bad airbag control units. And since Continental will notify manufacturers who will then issue their own recalls, it's extremely likely that more brands and vehicles will be ensnared. Stay tuned.

Aficionauto drives Vin Diesel's fast and furious 1970 Dodge Charger
Mon, 15 Sep 2014The 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.
