1947 Dodge 4x4 One Ton Diesel Rat Rod Late Model Chassis No Reserve on 2040-cars
Cleveland, Tennessee, United States
project rat rod 4x4 diesel. The truck is a 47 dodge one ton. The first three pics are when I got it. I have tags and a clear title in my name for it. The next few pics show the body being mounted on a 1976 F-350 4x4 chassis. It has divorced mount NP 205 and power steering and power brakes.High pinion front end.It has 19.5 wheels from a railroad truck on it. I sold the cab and front clip but I have the title for this truck also for the chassis. The drivetrain is Mercedes benz 3.0 turbo diesel.It is six cylinder not 5. I have every receipt for every oil change, belt, seal, tires, fuses,muffler and everything done to this car since new. It was 1987 (non electronic) 300 SDL. It was in a wreck(body and suspension) I drove it on trailer and put the drivetrain in this truck, I have the title for this also.I wanted a tough 4X4 dually rat rod that got good fuel mileage. Time children and now grandchildren have taken up my time. I am selling to help fund the purchase of a church bus. I have a tilt column for it. The under dash air for it. the driveshafts for it. A third row seat from an astro van that fits good. The plastic diesel tank from the MB.i have a bed for it in the pics. I still have the original chassis and flathead stuff. Ther is a ton of time and money to get to this point and I have most parts to finish. The motor mounts and tranny mounts are new .(trying to do it right as I went.)A good project for someone with a shop and time. I have neither now. Ask any questions. Might take an interest in a shuttle bus with H-cap lift.Can be hauled on one trailer if you don't want the original chassis.Thanks,Tom

NHTSA investigating power modules on Chrysler Group SUVs and minivans
Mon, 29 Sep 2014The Center for Auto Safety is officially petitioning the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to begin scrutinizing alleged problems with the totally integrated power module (TIPM) on about 24 Chrysler Group SUVs and minivans. The advocacy group claims that the part's failure can cause affected vehicles to stall or not start at all. NHTSA is still looking into the accusations and deciding whether a full investigation is actually warranted.
The CAS petition claims at least 70 TIPM failures, but according to NHTSA, six of the complaints are for models that don't have the modules. In 34 of the reported cases, the vehicles refused to start, and in 17 of them the engine stalled. There were also two allegations of smoke and one of a fire. However, none of these affected airbag deployment or resulted in a crash.
This petition isn't the first TIPM-related problem for Chrysler Group. A recent report in the New York Times alleged that it found 240 complaints potentially related to the issue on NHTSA's website alone. In September, the automaker also recalled 230,760 examples worldwide (188,723 in the US) of the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango replace the fuel pump relay circuit inside of the TIPM-7 with one external to the unit. The original part could allegedly cause the models to stall without warning. Even earlier, the company also recalled about 80,000 examples of the Jeep Wrangler and Dodge Nitro in 2007 to have the module reprogrammed.
South Dakota dealer filled to brim with classic cars
Wed, 12 Mar 2014Other than the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and Mount Rushmore, South Dakota isn't generally a hot topic, but that just means that cool stuff can hide in the open waiting to be discovered. Case in point: the classic car dealer Frankman Motor Company that operates three locations in Sioux Falls, SD.
Unearthed by the folks at Bring a Trailer, Frankman is a treasure trove of vintage, American iron. Their collection is full of the type of vehicles your irresponsible but cool uncle would show up with when you were a kid. Even better, these cars are priced at a level a working man can afford.
If you are lusting about a cruiser then Frankman has a 1956 Cadillac Deville Hard Top Sedan (pictured right) with 82,896 miles for $12,975. It's painted a color called Cascade Grey, but looks more like a pastel purple in pictures. While it needs some repairs to the accessories, the Caddy runs and drives, which is all you really need.
Ranking Dodge's Charger Hellcat with the fastest sedans in the world

"This is a car that most brands would never bring to market." - Tim Kuniskis
Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis had reason to be confident, perhaps even a bit cocky at the reveal of his brand's newest halo car, the 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat. As he said simply, it's the "quickest, fastest and most powerful sedan in the world."
