1970 Dodge D400 Sweptline Truck Stake Bed Power Wagon Chassis 225 V6 Low Miles on 2040-cars
Morning Sun, Iowa, United States
|
Up for bid is a really nice 1970 Dodge D400 Sweptline Truck with 82,800 original miles. It is in very good condition with no rust holes or rot on the body or chassis. The pictures speak for themselves and I think it actually looks better in person! It started life as a Navy truck (hence the blue interior) and then put into service at a fire department as a stake bed. Has been farmer owned ever since. It was stored inside since new and was NEVER driven in the winter. The body is very nice and doesn't have any dents or rust. There are a few holes from old signage or accessories but most have been plugged. The frame is still almost completely black. The stake bed is approx. 14' long and all the wood is in excellent condition. The interior is all there and complete. The dash is in excellent condition and isn't all chewed up like most of these that you see with radio holes, etc. The floors are rock solid and still have the original rubber floor mat. The seat bottom and back are in perfect condition. There is some minor cracking on the sidewall of the seat but nothing major. All glass including the windshield is good. This truck always starts right up and runs great! The 225 Slant 6's are bulletproof motors and I am amazed how quiet and smooth this truck runs. There are no major leaks, doesn't smoke, idles great, and the choke works. All gauges work, all lights work, and all the interior decals are in good shape. Like new Interstate Battery with a cut off switch installed in case you want to store it for a long time. It has the NP435 4spd manual trans that shifts smoothly in every gear. Clutch works well, brakes work but could maybe use a little adjusting. 18,500 GVWR so it will haul quite a large payload with the rear HYP01D axle. I have owned several of these throughout the years and none have had a nicer cab, interior, or frame. I bought this truck about 1 year ago for the cab and the interior to swap it onto a W600 project that I have. I really hate to sell this thing but I've decided that this truck is just too nice and complete to cut apart. I found another cab I can use on my project so it's time to pass this one along. Clean and clear title and all VIN plates are intact on the truck. This will sell with NO RESERVE to the high bidder so bid to win! Any questions, don't hesitate to give me a call at 563-676-2032. $100 paypal deposit due within 48 hours and full payment due in cash in person within 7 days unless other arrangements are made prior to the end of the listing. If you need it delivered, I have a big trailer and could maybe help out with the delivery for a fee within 300 miles depending on where you are.

2015 Dodge Viper getting small increase in power
Tue, 29 Jul 2014The Viper is used to being the most powerful car in the Dodge and SRT stables, but the arrival of the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat means that's no longer the case. The serpentine supercar is, however, reportedly getting a small boost in output for 2015, amounting to all of five horsepower.
The increase was uncovered by Road & Track courtesy of the SAE J1349 certification process to which Detroit's Big Three automakers submit themselves and which reports the Viper's output at 645 hp instead of the 640 it was rated at until now. There are a hundred factors that could have contributed to the relatively mild boost in output (best guess? nothing at all changed...), but we doubt anyone's going to complain about some extra horses under the hood.
The five-horsepower boost brings the Viper that much closer to the 650-hp Chevy Corvette Z06, not to mention the 707-hp Hellcat, but the Viper's impressive power-to-weight ratio ought to mean it'll have little problem keeping up in a straight line - which is just one of the reasons why Chrysler won't shoe-horn the Hellcat into the Viper: as R&T points out, the supercharged engine is too heavy and the blower makes it too tall to fit in the Viper's engine bay.
Ranking Dodge's Charger Hellcat with the fastest sedans in the world

"This is a car that most brands would never bring to market." - Tim Kuniskis
Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis had reason to be confident, perhaps even a bit cocky at the reveal of his brand's newest halo car, the 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat. As he said simply, it's the "quickest, fastest and most powerful sedan in the world."
Dodge Viper GTS-R goes back to old-school livery
Fri, 20 Jun 2014The Dodge Viper may have been around now for over 20 years, but as far as racing achievements go, 2000 was its finest season. That's when it won the Rolex 24 at Daytona, the GTS class trophy at the 24 Hours of Le Mans and its second consecutive title in the American Le Mans Series.
Since then, SRT Motorsports hasn't quite had the same success, withdrawing from Le Mans this year and shedding the Dodge name and its emblematic red and white livery for the SRT badge and a silver snakeskin theme. But now that the Viper is back under the Dodge banner, so too is the racing team returning to its classic livery.
Starting from the six-hour race at Watkins Glen next week, both the No. 91 and No. 93 Viper GTS-Rs will wear the red base color with twin white racing stripes that its more accomplished forebears wore on circuits around the world. And with it, maybe the Viper will return once again to the winner's circle at home and abroad.
