You are bidding on a 1941 Dodge WC12 4x4 1/2 ton pickup truck build by Dodge for the US Military. This is an original closed cab truck for the military and not a civilian conversion. It has all the correct data plates still in the cab. This truck came out of the Furnace Creek Ranch in California after it was purchased from surplus at the end of the war. The truck has had a sun roof put in it at one time. The engine runs great with good oil pressure. ( I can forward you a video of it running if you want to see it run ) The starter has been replaced with a key and solenoid starter for ease of starting. It also has had power brakes put on the truck, but are soft. I have not had time to mess with them much. I have only driven the truck around my shop. The head was taken off to check things out and the engine looks good with new head gasket kit installed. The engine looks to be a replacement engine from the Government (see picture of engine numbers) and has a date of 44 on the block. The fenders and bed have the typical cracks in them, but in good condition otherwise. Would be an easy restoration. It is missing the passenger side inner front side panel that shields the engine. It does have three combat rims and four regular rims. Please ask any questions you may have. Thanks for looking. ***Please Note*** Buyer is 100% responsible for any and all shipping costs. I can and will assist in loading and I do have a loading ramp. ***Please Note*** Buyer to pay a $250.00 deposit within 24 hours of auction end and remaining balance is due no more than 7 days after auction ends. Buyer can pay the remaining balance with cash, certified cashiers check, personal check, bank transfer (buyer responsible for any bank transfer fee's) or Pay-Pal (Pay-Pal fee's apply) HOWEVER, if you pay the remaining balance using Pay-Pal there is a 3.5% fee that will be added to the remaining balance only. Sorry for the inconvenience. If you disagree with this, please pay the remaining balance using a different method. If you have any questions about this, please do not hesitate to ask. *** ***Please Note*** I reserve the right to end the auction early as truck is for sale locallyOn Mar-27-15 at 20:41:29 PDT, seller added the following information: *** Please Note*** Today March 27th while under the truck taking pictures of the underneath of the cab for someone I noticed that the frame has been cracked and welded up just behind the cab. The truck does not sag in the middle when looking at it from the side and looks very straight and good from underneath the truck. I just want every one to know. Sorry about this, it was and is not my intention to mislead any one. I always try to describe a vehicle the best I can but some times I do miss something. I have not noticed it until now. If you wish to retract your bid, I understand. If you are still interested, I can send you pictures.

Roadkill pits every project car against each other

Sat, 22 Feb 2014

The guys behind Motor Trend's monthly Roadkill series have collected nine of their favorite project cars from their videos and pitted them against each other in a battle royale to determine a winner. It's 44 minutes long, but it's completely worth the investment of time.
The cars run the gamut from a 1973 Chevrolet Ramp Truck, a 1975 AMC Pacer and a legitimately impressive 1967 Chevy Camaro, and they are pitted against each other to see which is the fastest around an autocross course. The drivers include Roadkill's two hosts and Motor Trend's Johnny Lieberman and Carlos Lago. It's reminiscent of the best episodes of Top Gear and worth a watch.
So it's the weekend - the perfect time to relax. Grab your preferred beverage, get comfortable and enjoy 44 minutes of some seriously ratty but utterly cool project cars as they are throttled within an inch of their lives (or past it). Scroll down to check out the video.

Dodge Viper recall requires small-handed mechanics

Fri, 25 Apr 2014

It has been over a year since Chrysler first announced its recall of 3,660 2003-2004 Dodge Vipers because the airbag could suddenly deploy. The repairs are finally beginning, and it appears to be a nightmare for mechanics.
According to the automaker's filing with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag control module can fail, which causes the bag or the seatbelt pre-tensioner to deploy without warning. It took over a year to design the new parts, according to The New York Times. However, Chrysler finally has a new "jumper harness with an in-line diode filter circuit" ready to fix the problem.
The dilemma now moves to the mechanics who have to actually install the part. A 47-step guide from Chrysler explains that the procedure should take about two hours. It's not an easy job, though. Most of the dashboard has to be taken apart, and the instructions include this helpful bit of advice: "Installing the jumper harness and filter box into position is not an easy task. Patience, perseverance, and small hands are required." We wish the best of luck to them. The fix comes just in time for the Vipers to enjoy the summer sun.

2013 Dodge Charger SRT8 Super Bee

Tue, 12 Mar 2013

I can pinpoint the exact moment when I fell in love with this car. It was starting down a nearly straight entrance ramp at 15 miles per hour when I buried the throttle. In a moment, I was thrown back into my seat as the big SRT8's engine came to life with commensurate sound, fury and force, bringing me up to 75 mph in what felt like two blinks of an eye. This thing feels so much quicker than its 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque would lead you to believe. And mashing the right pedal never, ever gets old.
But beyond sheer speed, I found a whole lot to like about the Charger SRT8 during my week with the Pitch Black test car here in Detroit. And while the whole Super Bee kit isn't really my style, it's really easy to overlook those badges for a package that offers so much for so little.
