Webster, Wisconsin, United States

 1958 Dodge W100 Power Giant restored to original condition.  A ground up restoration was completed in 2011.  I have included a photo of the chassis during the restoration process so you can see that it was media blasted, painted and the freshly rebuilt 6 cylinder engine.  The truck is an early year production indicated by single headlamps. 

Engine:  230 6 cylinder
Transmission: 3 speed column shift
Transfer case:  NP 91000 2 speed
Chassis:  108" wheel base (shortbox)
Gear ratio:  4.89:1
Differentials:  Spicer 44 front end and a Chrysler 8 3/4 rear end
Wheels:  17.5 x8
Paint:  Original colors:  Klondike Yellow and Sandel wood accent color
Radiator:  Honeycomb style

Extra factory equipment:  Inside rear view mirror, outside spare tire carrier, cigar lighter


Again this truck has been restored to original with exception to the wood bed.  Originally that was pine wood painted black.  I used oak wood and clear spar varnish, see photo.  The battery is a reproduction of the original, with caps.  Photo was taken when battery was out, battery does go with truck.  The speedometer was not turned back, but only  has about 300 miles on truck.  Also the photos may vary in color, I used two different cameras and for some reason colors appear to be brighter on one. 

1958 was the second year dodge came out with a civilian style four wheel drive truck for the public.  This truck was originally intended to be a work truck, built very solid.  With a gear ratio of 4.89 the top speed is about 45mph.  This truck was originally a County Truck in Arizona, and sat in the desert for many years prior to my purchase of it.  The body only had light surface rust, no rusted panels.  I purchased it and began a complete restoration that took 6 years.  Close attention was given to keep everything as it would of been from the factory. 

The truck runs and drives great, Very fun to drive around you will get thumbs up and lots of people wanting to stop and talk about it.  I have had so much fun showing this truck, great to show off a piece of our automotive history. 

Has a clear Wisconsin title.

Dodge idles Viper production again at Conner Avenue

Mon, 07 Jul 2014

You've got to hand it to Dodge for having the gumption to put the original Viper into production in the first place. It was, after all, much more of an emotional decision than a practical one, and a move which saw the first production V10 engine placed in a road car - long before the advent of the Lamborghini Gallardo, Audi R8, Porsche Carrera GT or Lexus LFA, not to mention the other Ford, BMW and Volkswagen Group models that used such engines.
It's now been 22 years since the first Viper entered production and the Viper still rolls on several generations later, but we're sad to say that courageous decision has not always been met with overwhelming sales success. In fact parent Chrysler was forced to idle the Conner Avenue plant where the Viper is made back in April due to slow sales. And while production resumed again as planned on June 23, it apparently didn't do the trick.
As a result, Chrysler corporate communications chief Shawn Morgan revealed to Autoblog that the assembly line has been shut down again for another two weeks. The line was up and running for nearly two full work weeks from June 23 until the holiday weekend that started on Thursday, July 3. But instead of coming back online today as planned, it's been idled again for the weeks of July 7 and 14. That means it will be July 21, at the earliest, before the serpentine supercars start slithering down the assembly line at Conner Avenue again. Once it does, however, production is set to resume at the same pace it was before the shutdown.

Dodge, Hyundai crowdsourced-funding sites deemed successes

Wed, 05 Jun 2013

What's not to love about crowdsourcing? This idea, after all, has given us Kickstarter as well Local Motors, but automakers are starting to use the social platform to sell more cars (or just drum up a little PR). Both Dodge and Hyundai have used "crowd-funding" recently, and while Automotive News is reporting that neither has racked up big sales with this gimmick, both automakers are pleased with the attention.
For Hyundai, it teamed up with website Motozuma.com to help customers crowdsource money for a down payment, and the automaker matched this amount up to $500. Last year, this helped Hyundai sell an extra 1,600 units, a fraction of its total 2012 sales. That figure is far larger than Dodge fared with the Dodge Dart Registry - it netted only two sales and a small number of individual options. This registry did help University of Southern California fraternity crowdsource $18,000 to buy a Dart for a local Meals on Wheels, however. Despite the low sales figures, Dodge and Hyundai are considering their crowdsourcing programs a success since it helped them connect with younger buyers.

2015 Dodge Challenger configurator has all the Hellcat you can dream of

Mon, 08 Sep 2014

The 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat has sucked up a lot of air in the automotive news world this summer, so it's good to know that you can actually go out and, you know, buy the sucker. With 2015 models headed for your local showroom, Dodge has seen fit to also pull the wraps off it's latest Challenger configurator, complete with the supercharged Hemi V8 option that we just can't seem to get enough of.
We're still enamored of the $58,995 starting price for the 707-horsepower SRT, but the online tool finally gives us a chance to see just how optioned up our dream super-muscle coupe can get.
Buyers can choose from three interior treatments and nine paint colors, with two hues (Ivory White and Phantom Black tri-coats) coming for a $500 premium. For $1,795 Laguna Leather SRT bucket seats can be added in place of the (very nice) stock chairs, and a fancier infotaiment system with navigation and HD radio runs $695.
