very unique ratrod here. it started out as a 1963 dodge m37 weapons carrier but has been morphed with a 1966 olds toronado to make a rear engine rat rod that gets lots of attention. I will try and explain how we put this together and hopefully the pics will show the rest but you can ask any questions if you are unsure about anything. the engine and transmission are pretty much all original other than the chrome etc.. runs great. we removed the entire front frame clip from the toronado all the way back to the crossmember where torsion bars attach. the steering was centered and the pitman arm was welded to frame and additional braces were added to hold steering linkage still. this way tie rod adjustments can be made for fine tuning the wheel angles if needed. we then notched m37 frame to fit and set it down over toronado frame clip welding wherever it was close enough to weld and adding reinforcement braces down each side. the frame is very solid now maybe even a bit heavier than it needs to be. it will handle enough torque to even pull the front wheels off the ground occasionally under hard acceleration. for the front suspension we used a whole crosmember from a 1976 chevy half ton truck and it pretty much bolted right in. the radiator with and electric fan is mounted in its original position up front and water is piped through metal tubes back to engine.. holds almost 7 gallons on antifreeze so very unlikely to have cooling problems even if fan didn't work. the vehicle is roadworthy as it is, could use some tires, but all lights, steering etc good, brand new brakes all around, new calipers, wheel cylinders, mastercylinder etc. seats were recovered. I have original military canvas top that needs to be installed. it is in good shape, but may need to be wet and stretched to fit just right. I also have a tailgate and a new set of headers that are made to go straight up like on a boat that I will let go with it. it has a good set of torque thrust wheels 5x5 on it. needs doorglass and has 1 cracked windshield The state of GA does not issue title on vehicles this old so this truck will be sold with bill of sale and GA registration which is all that's required to get a title in another state. you can verify this with your DMV if you'd like.

Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango to lose color options temporarily
Wed, 19 Nov 2014In the market for a Jeep Grand Cherokee or Dodge Durango? Well, if you fancy a more expressive color for your new SUV, you'd better get your order in, or plan on waiting until well into 2015.
The SUVs will be limited to just four monochromatic shades - black, white, silver and gray - until at least February, thanks to an upgrade to the paint shop at the two vehicles' Jefferson North factory. For the Grand Cherokee, that means it's losing more than half its color palette while the Durango is dropping two-thirds of its color catalog.
The loss of colors is inconvenient, but the upgrade will have a slightly bigger effect on the overall supply of SUVs, as Chrysler will need to end its relentless build pace at the factory for a three-week shutdown starting on December 22. The good news for fans of the SUVs is that once the work is completed, we should see a gradual expansion of the color palettes for both the Durango and Grand Cherokee, beyond even what's offered now.
2015 Dodge Challenger looks fresh, still plenty retro [w/video]
Thu, 17 Apr 2014It was the Ford Mustang that kicked off the retro-styled muscle car renaissance back in 2005, but it was the Dodge Challenger that served as the movement's poster child, with its unabashedly retro looks. Over the years, though, as the Mustang and the Chevrolet Camaro were freshened and upgraded, the look of the big Dodge has remained largely consistent since its 2008 debut. For 2015, the Challenger has received a big freshening, boasting strongly revised front and rear ends and (finally, finally, finally) a redesigned interior.
Let's talk about that new cabin first. It's basically been plucked directly from the redesigned Charger, and boasts the same seven-inch IP display. The center stack's miserable, last-gen display has been replaced by an expansive, 8.4-inch UConnect system. Material quality should see a solid boost with the new cabin, as well.
The exterior, meanwhile, sees a revised front fascia with LED halo lights, as well as new grille inserts. A functional shaker hood scoop is a must-have extra on the V8 models, while the back of the car is highlighted by a new set of LED taillights that don't use the "Racetrack" design of Dodge's other models.
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.
