THANK YOU FOR LOOKING AT MY 1982 DODGE RAM D100 SHORT BED.
DRIVETRAIN-
THIS TRUCK ORIGINALLY CAME WITH THE VENERABLE SLANT 6 ENGINE AND AUTOMATIC TRANS. IT HAD 63000 ORIGINAL MILES ON IT WHEN I GOT IT, AND RAN LIKE BRAND NEW. I WANTED MORE POWER AS US GUYS TEND TO, SO I SOURCED A STRONG RUNNING FRESH 440 CUBIC INCH MOPAR BIG BLOCK FOR IT! I HAD NO IDEA ALL THE WORK THAT WAS INVOLVED IN SWITCHING OVER TO THIS BIG BLOCK, BUT IN THE END, IT CAME OUT FANTASTIC! THE ENGINE IS A STOCK EARLY 70'S 440 WITH FULL LENGTH HEADERS, HIGH RISE ALUMINUM INTAKE, EDELBROCK 4 BARREL CARB, MOPAR ELECTRONIC IGNITION, WITH CHROME BOX. THIS TRUCK RUNS PERFECT! IT HAS A NEW RADIATOR, NEW WATER PUMP, NEW ALTERNATOR, NEW BELTS ETC. ALL ITEMS WERE REPLACED WHEN ENGINE WAS INSTALLED 1 YEAR AGO. IT IS BACKED UP BY A STRONG SHIFTING 727 TORQUE FLITE TRANS. I WOULD NOT BE AFRAID TO GET IN THIS TRUCK AND DRIVE IT ANYWHERE! IT HAS MADE THE TRIP OVER THE MOUNTAIN TO VIRGINIA LOTS OF TIMES, AND IT EVEN DOES DECENT ON GAS AS LONG AS YOU STAY OUT OF IT! IT HAS ALL NEW DUAL EXHAUST ALSO.
THIS TRUCK IS ALSO VERY QUICK, AS YOU CAN PROBABLY IMAGINE. THESE 440'S PUT OUT A TON OR HORSEPOWER AND TORQUE! THIS ONE DOES NOT SMOKE, LEAK, BURN OIL, OR DO ANYTHING IT ISNT SUPPOSED TO DO! IT RUNS EXTREMELY COOL EVEN IN HEAVY TRAFFIC.
HAS ALMOST NEW TIRES ON IT.
BODY-
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL TENNESSEE TRUCK, AND HAS NEVER HAD ANY RUST ON THE BODY OR FLOORS- EVER, NO RUST!! IF YOU LIKE THESE DODGE TRUCKS, THEN YOU KNOW HOW HARD THAT IS TO FIND! THIS TRUCK IS STRAIGHT, AND NEVER HAD ANY BODY DAMAGE, OR ACCIDENTS EITHER. REMEMBER, THIS IS A 65000 ORIGINAL MILE TRUCK! IT WAS PAINTED LAST YEAR AND HAS A DECENT PAINT JOB. IT IS THE ORIGINAL COLOR BUT WE ADDED EXTRA METAL FLAKE. IT LOOKS FANTASTIC IN THE SUN! IT HAS NOT BEEN WHEELED OUT OR BUFFED SINCE IT WAS PAINTED. IF SOMEONE TOOK THE TIME TO DO IT, IT WOULD LOOK FANTASTIC! TRUCK HAS HAD A ROLL PAN INSTALLED. WE ALSO INSTALLED THE 70'S STYLE "BIRD BATH" HOOD.
INTERIOR-
THIS IS WHERE THIS TRUCK NEEDS SOME TLC. THE CARPET NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE SEAT HAS A SMALL RIP WHERE THE DRIVER GETS IN AND OUT. OTHER THAN THAT, IT IS IN NICE SHAPE FOR A 32 YEAR OLD TRUCK. EVERYTHING WORKS AS IT SHOULD, RADIO, HEAT, LIGHTS, GAUGES ETC. THE TRUCK IS VERY TIGHT INSIDE, WITH NO WIND NOISE BELIEVE IT OR NOT. IT RIDES AND DRIVES LIKE NEW, JUST FASTER!
I HAD PLANNED ON KEEPING THIS TRUCK FOREVER, AND FINISHING IT OFF, BUT I HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE A NEW SRT8 DODGE CHALLENGER, SO MY OTHER TOYS NOW HAVE TO GO! THE RESERVE ON THIS TRUCK IS WAY BELOW THE AMOUNT THAT I HAVE IN THIS TRUCK. YOU CAN NOT BUILD THIS TRUCK THIS WAY FOR EVEN CLOSE TO THE RESERVE PRICE.(HAVE YOU PRICED MOPAR PARTS LATELY? LOL)
THE TRUCK IS LOCATED AT MY DAD'S HOUSE IN SEVIERVILLE TENNESSEE. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CALL DOUG AT 630-327-4350.

2015 Dodge Challenger Drag Pak previewed
Fri, 29 Aug 2014Dodge and Mopar have never strayed far from success in drag racing, be it on run-what-you-brung nights at the local strip or at the highest levels of the sport. Hoping to both add to that heritage and capitalize on some of the media spotlight that's shown so brightly on the brand of late, Dodge has given us our first look at the 2015 Mopar Challenger Drag Pak test car.
Though this first iteration doesn't make use of the 707-horsepower Hellcat engine, it seems to be a pretty formidable racing package. Starting with a stock '15 Challenger, Mopar adds a full roll cage built to National Hot Rod Association specs. Rubber front and back is drag racing-ready as well, with 28x4.5-inch tires in the front, and fat 30x9-inch tires out back - all from Hoosier.
Powering the beast is a massive 426-cubic-inch (7.0-liter) Hemi Race V8, with output levels that are still unspecified. A Chrysler 727 automatic transmission connects up to a racing style shift lever, with integral line lock.
Chrysler recalling 31k SUVs and vans
Fri, 06 Jun 2014Chrysler is issuing recalls covering roughly 31,700 vehicles worldwide due to two separate problems. In both cases the company believes that most of the affected vehicles are either still on, or in transit to, dealer lots.
One recall covers roughly 10,700 Dodge Durango, Jeep Cherokee, Grand Cherokee and Grand Cherokee SRT models from the 2014 model year built between January 16 and April 17, 2014. The SUVs need a software update for the cruise control. It's possible that when the cruise is on and the driver presses on the throttle, the acceleration could last a second after the pedal is released or two seconds for the SRT. Afterward, they return to the speed originally set by the driver.
Chrysler says it isn't aware of any accidents, injuries or even reported incidents of this happening in the real world. Also, in all cases, if the driver presses on the brake, the cruise shuts off. The automaker believes that there are about 6,100 affected SUVs in the US, 950 in Canada, 425 in Mexico and 3,200 outside of North America. The software upgrade will be ready shortly, the company says.
Motorweek goes retro with '80s hot hatch shootout
Mon, 03 Nov 2014Motorweek's decades of history on television make it the perfect medium to look back into the automotive past and see how things are different now. It recently added old road test videos to its YouTube channel of the Acura NSX and Toyota Supra, as well as the Ferrari F40. For one of its newest flashback clips, Motorweek has exhumed an affordable five-car challenge of 1986's premiere hot hatches.
By today's standards, this is an eclectic field that features fondly remembered classics like the Volkswagen GTI 16-valve and Acura Integra. However, it also throws in some nearly forgotten contenders like the Dodge Colt Turbo and Ford Escort GT. The angular Toyota Corolla FX16 GT-S rounds out the group.
It's fascinating to watch Motorweek run the quintet through the slalom, down the drag strip and on various roads. What's most striking in this clip is the difference in the definition of a performance car between then and now. With its 16-valve, 1.8-liter four-cylinder, the GTI is the burliest of the contenders with 123 horsepower, but it still takes 8.8 seconds to reach 60 miles per hour. By today's standards, that would make it a plain-jane economy car, and not even a particularly quick one.
