Waubun, Minnesota, United States

 1946 Dodge Pick-up Truck.  It is considered a pre-war body style though.

The body has some rust, but is fairly reasonable for a 68 year old truck.  The fenders are solid but look like they may have had dents hammered out of them, as they have many dimples in them.  The windshield is cracked, and the windshield frame is rotted pretty well, but the crank out mechanism still works.  The wood in the bed is rotten.  The tailgate needs to be held on with a ratchet strap, as the bed sides tend to droop outwards.  The rear window is fine, and both side windows are fine and crank up and down.  The door latches work well.

The interior is as plain as you could imagine.  It has a bench seat, with naugahyde that is torn/cracking.  It has wood panels over the battery box and around the shifter, and both are rotting.  I'm not sure if any of the gauges work, but about 5 years ago I charged the battery and the headlights and gauge lights worked. 

The engine is the stock 6 cylinder flathead.  5 years ago I had it running, and drove it down the road.  The clutch didn't slip, the tranny worked in all 3 forward and 1 reverse gear.  The hydraulic brakes do not work, and I had to use the parking brake to slow down.  The accelerator pump in the carb was shot, so it took some feathering of the throttle to move it.  I haven't attempted to revive it since that day, so the current running condition I am stating as not running.  When I had it running, the generator was charging fine.

This vehicle is being sold AS-IS, and it's old so expect there to be things wrong with it. 

This truck is also for sale locally, so this auction may be canceled at any time. 

No delivery of this truck is included, as the buyer is responsible for pick-up/transport.

A $500 deposit will be required, and the remainder of the balance will be due before the truck leaves the premises.

Dodge offers 100 years of solid advice in new ad

Fri, 18 Apr 2014

This is a cool ad. Dodge, which is celebrating its centennial this year, recruited some of its peers to see what you should and shouldn't do in life. Of course, some are obvious - don't complain, learn from your mistakes and live for now.
Then again, some are less obvious. Some, actually, are downright awesome. Towards the end, each piece of advice is interspersed with clips of Dodge's redesigned Challenger smoking its tires. Really, this ad feels like it'd be worthy of a Super Bowl spot. This commercial's personal nature is really in keeping with some of the big game's most interesting ads, like the Imported From Detroit commercial, the Farmer ad and Maserati's surprise clip from this year's game.
Take a look below and let us know what you think.

Old vs. New: 2014 SRT Viper takes on upgraded 16-year-old Dodge Viper

Fri, 08 Feb 2013

It's easy to play the "Would you rather have a New X or an Old Y with a bunch of upgrades?" game more often than we care to admit, but the crew at Car and Driver have taken bench racing to the next level with their latest video. In it, the magazine pits a brand-new 2014 SRT Viper against a highly modified 1997 Dodge Viper GTS. There are 16 years between the time this particular GTS rolled off the production line and when the new car bowed, but that doesn't mean the old snake's owners have been sitting on their hands.
Thanks to a spate of modifications, the GTS offers up a better power to weight ratio than the new machine, but is that enough to overcome the technological leap forward represented by the 2014 Viper? We won't spoil it for you. You'll just have to check out the full clip below for yourself.

Dodge bringing revamped Challenger, Charger to Big Apple

Mon, 07 Apr 2014

The 2014 New York Auto Show will be a big one for Dodge, as the brand has announced that refreshed versions of the 2015 Challenger and 2015 Charger will debut at the show. This is a particularly big deal for the two-door Challenger which, visually, has remained unchanged since is burst back onto the scene in 2008 and helped reignite the muscle car wars.
As a sort of hint, this announcement was accompanied by the picture you see above - the Super Bee logo in the Challenger's new instrument cluster. According to Dodge, the New York debut of a new "powertrain combination" - possibly with the high-output Hellcat V8 - will leave enthusiasts "abuzz."
As for the Charger, Dodge is promising a full redesign that should be a significant departure from the blunt, angry looks of the current model. At this point, there's no indication that the Challenger's new powertrain could be fitted to the Charger, although considering how mechanically similar these two vehicles have been, it doesn't seem outside the realm of possibility.
