Plymouth Sunrader Pickup, One Of A Kind? Very Rare. Mini Truck Dually on 2040-cars
Clearlake, California, United States
This is a two owner very rare 1981 Plymouth Arrow Pickup with a Sunrader conversion.(Sunrader is most commonly known for doing RV conversions and full RVs). This truck was rescued from a barn in Northern California where it was stored for more than two decades. It was picked up from the original owners with the original "pink slip" and every registration from new. It comes with the original owners manual and an original repair manual.
As far as I can tell this may very well be the only one left of an unknown quantity of them converted ( I can't find any information on these anywhere). The truck is an original California car and was purchased from a dealership in Oakland Ca. and has spent its whole life in Northern California. Some of the unique features of this truck are that the frame has been professionally stretched nearly 36" and is fully supported. This was done in order to accommodate the very large extended cab that was fitted to a stock cab that had the entire center section of the roof and back of the cab cut out. It also has been converted to a dually with the help of the rear wheels that are a one piece design that holds two tires on one wheel. The bed is fitted with fender extensions to house the double wheels. Inside of the cab is fully covered in the original brown vinyl and the original tan carpet that has been faded a bit. The original front seats are also available if the buyer wants them ( they are not in good condition from sitting for so long with no attention and are a high back style captains seat). I replaced them with a set of tan Pontiac Fiero seats that need some fabric work. It still retains the original bench seat in the rear of the cab that also needs fabric work.Has matching vinyl door panels. Has large windows in the sides of the fiberglass extension that has the lower portion that opens and closes up above is a lexan window that needs some attention. I have updated the am radio to a newer CD player with an amp under the back seat and two 10" Pioneer subs behind the rear seat. It sounds nice with 6.5" speakers in the doors. I have the original steering wheel but I have replaced it with a rare 12" Grant signature series wheel. All lights work as they should with the exception of the rear cargo light (bulb?). The engine is bone stock with a new radiator and oil change and I believe it is still running the original cap rotor and wires. Runs like a champ. The transmission is a four speed and has a very good clutch but again its original as far as I know. I took off the original tires that were date coded 4/6/80 and replaced them with new low profile tires (6 of them), the tires sport a full set of original port-a-wall white walls for looks. The truck has been lowered three inches all around with lowering blocks in the rear and cut springs up front. Has a few scratches and a dent in the front right fender not bad though, the front bumper needs work as well as the front apron that can all be found on Ebay for cheap. The paint is original warm white and is faded from sitting with no attention. This truck runs well and would drive anywhere. I have these original parts for the truck that I will include, if the buyer wants them: Stock hubcaps (4), stock steering wheel,stock shift knob, stock conversion seats. I have also included a picture of it in stock dress. Buyer is responsible for local pick up and/or shipping!! |

Which electric cars can charge at a Tesla Supercharger?
Sun, Jul 9 2023The difference between Tesla charging and non-Tesla charging. Electrify America; Tesla Tesla's advantage has long been its charging technology and Supercharger network. Now, more and more automakers are switching to Tesla's charging tech. But there are a few things non-Tesla drivers need to know about charging at a Tesla station. A lot has hit the news cycle in recent months with regard to electric car drivers and where they can and can't plug in. The key factor in all of that? Whether automakers switched to Tesla's charging standard. More car companies are shifting to Tesla's charging tech in the hopes of boosting their customers' confidence in going electric. Here's what it boils down to: If you currently drive a Tesla, you can keep charging at Tesla charging locations, which use the company's North American Charging Standard (NACS), which has long served it well. The chargers are thinner, more lightweight and easier to wrangle than other brands. If you currently drive a non-Tesla EV, you have to charge at a non-Tesla charging station like that of Electrify America or EVgo — which use the Combined Charging System (CCS) — unless you stumble upon a Tesla charger already equipped with the Magic Dock adapter. For years, CCS tech dominated EVs from everyone but Tesla. Starting next year, if you drive a non-Tesla EV (from the automakers that have announced they'll make the switch), you'll be able to charge at all Supercharger locations with an adapter. And by 2025, EVs from some automakers won't even need an adaptor. Here's how to charge up, depending on which EV you have: Ford 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E. Tim Levin/Insider Ford was the earliest traditional automaker to team up with Tesla for its charging tech. Current Ford EV owners — those driving a Ford electric vehicle already fitted with a CCS port — will be able to use a Tesla-developed adapter to access Tesla Superchargers starting in the spring. That means that, if you own a Mustang Mach-E or Ford F-150 Lightning, you will need the adapter in order to use a Tesla station come 2024. But Ford will equip its future EVs with the NACS port starting in 2025 — eliminating the need for any adapter. Owners of new Ford EVs will be able to pull into a Supercharger station and juice up, no problem. General Motors Cadillac Lyriq. Cadillac GM will also allow its EV drivers to plug into Tesla stations.
2014 Dodge Durango teaser reveals new 'racetrack' taillights
Fri, 22 Mar 2013Not wanting to let Jeep get all of the SUV attention for the 2014 model year, Dodge is unveiling a refreshed version of its Durango at the New York Auto Show. Teased in this image, all we can really tell about the 2014 Dodge Durango is that it will be getting Dodge's "racetrack" taillights similar to the Charger and Dart.
The chrome or painted strip currently between the Durango's Zorro taillamps have been removed to allow for a full-width LED array with "DODGE" lettering displayed more prominently above the license plate pocket. Parent company Chrysler also promises that the updated Durango will add "several new class-exclusive features," but stops short of saying what those are. Earlier reports suggest that among the changes, buyers will be able to look forward to an eight-speed automatic gearbox, which ought to improve the three-row SUV's fuel efficiency.
