 Up for bid is a: 1966  DODGE A100 Pickup Truck  with a PERFORMANCE 270 Mopar Clifford 6=8 Headers.  This is the RARE 3 Window Version (the super stock truck used for the Promotional Little Red Wagon).  This Original California Barn Find Was bought by a friend Tony in the 1990's (where it was used on a ranch in California) with plans of turning it into a Little GREEN Wagon, opting for the Original 6 cylinder to keep it stock, but add performance.  Extensive mechanical work was done on this low miles truck to have it not only be like when new but to be fast and drive like new.  Have receipts, This truck runs and drives GREAT!  All body work was done by Chuck Morris who has had his work shown in Hot Rod Magazine,  with some slight customizations eliminating vertical seam lines at rear and at the top of bed walls.  1n 2006 The truck was ready to have the exterior painted and I would complete by adding Firestone Redline tires (made by Coker) Then the interior and replace body & trim and bumpers with either NOS Mopar parts or restored original parts, Once the truck was in my hands it would hit the streets of Malibu and be driven very lightly as it was used for promoting the SJOBECK Malibu Brand of Mens Denim (an international fashion Brand).   The final details has been a slow work in progress,  preferring to only replace  original parts with  original NOS parts, so there is still minimal work to do to finish the job.  or just drive it as it is and get tons of attention and thumbs up everywhere you go,  Has Its original Sun visor posts restored and a new headliner by Acme ( I could not find OEM material on these.  Has the Super stock seats redone with a grey matched material and they look factory,  will need a speedo cable, and a pedal pad,  rubber floor mat as well a new paint to make it show as the painter did poor prep work in some areas and it did not grab in the bed and some other areas, but still looks great from ten feet.  all Pictures are current except for 1 that was shown online in the Iowa Hawk and also was shown at Fast Eddies website and on The Hundreds Streetwear clothing brand website as well.  

 Has its original Owner Card from the Chrysler corporation with vin number and specs on it and comes with current registration and a clean title! The Truck has Original California Blue and Yellow plates, it was turned to a commercial truck so the plates were changes sometime in 1970's.  

 The NEW OLD STOCK:  OEM Red tipped Wipers, arms & bezels, Washer sprayers, outside Door handles, turn lens brake and dome lens lights are OEM NOS as well as OEM NOS Back up/ plate chrome & lights,  OEM NOS headlight Bezels as well as OEM NOS turn signal switch  as well as Horn button, as you may know these parts are so Expensive when and if you can ever find them.  Now it is time for someone to enjoy this truck that I have kept in the Garage and driven under 6 thousand miles since 2006,  Please feel free to ask me any questions by calling 949-981-3690  Also Have more pictures apron request!  Since this truck is almost 50 years old  is being sold as is and sale will be final.  Thank you and happy Bidding!

IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013

Wed, 02 Jan 2013

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.

Dodge Charger Hellcat hitting 60 in 2.9 seconds on drag radials?

Thu, 02 Oct 2014

The Dodge boys and their cousins from SRT have shoehorned the same 707-horsepower, 6.2-liter supercharged V8 into both the Dodge Challenger and Charger. The former being a two-door, it's lighter than the latter four-door sedan. So it would stand to reason that the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat would be the quicker of the two, right?
Only that's not necessarily proving to be the case. On stock rubber, yes, the coupe beats the sedan: Dodge quotes a 0-60 time of 3.7 seconds for the Charger SRT Hellcat and 3.5 for the Challenger. Same gap across the quarter-mile: 11 seconds flat for the Charger versus 10.8 seconds for the Challenger. But according to recent reports, the story changes when you put both on drag radials.
While visiting Chrysler HQ in Auburn Hills, MI, TorqueNews.com caught wind of performance figures for the Charger Hellcat on drag tires: 0-60 in a mind-blowing 2.9 seconds and a quarter-mile in just 10.7. The latter figure just barely pips the Hellcat-powered Challenger's NHRA-certified figure of 10.8, making the Charger not only the fastest sedan on the market, but also the fastest muscle car. What isn't immediately clear, however, is whether the drag radials in question have any tread on them and are street-legal, or if they're pure slicks confined to a closed strip.

Dodge Charger R/T NHRA Funny Car is ready to burn rubber at SEMA [w/video]

Wed, 05 Nov 2014

The Dodge Charger R/T is all set to rocket down the drag strip in NHRA Funny Car competition with a completely redesigned body debuting at this year's SEMA Show. While only the front decal, side scallops and rear logo really signal this racer as a Charger, that doesn't take away from its promise of hitting absolutely ludicrous speeds.
The engineers' biggest tweak to the body was moving the cockpit further back. This created more clearance under the hood, and the change came with added advantage of giving the driver better visibility out of the car. Composites like Kevlar also helped make the one-piece shell even lighter, while not sacrificing strength.
The new design has already undergone extensive time in the wind tunnel and real-world runs to make sure that none of the changes negatively impacted the aerodynamics. With those tests out of the way, the Charger R/T Funny Car will have the first chance to truly prove itself in NHRA competition at the 2015 Winternationals from February 5-9 at Auto Club Raceway in Pomona, CA.
