1972 72 Dodge W100 D100 W 100 D 100 Utiline Stepside Long Bed 4wd Step Side on 2040-cars
Littleton, Colorado, United States
|
Up for auction is this very rare 1972 Dodge W100 / D100 4WD Truck with the lock out
and/or locking hubs. It has the ultra rare utiline long bed step side
with the spare tire. This is a good running and driving truck with the
318 Poly Wide Block V8 4-speed on the floor with a 2-barrel carburetor.
This is the precursor to the Lil Red Express and/or Warlock and this
truck has some of those features. There is a Mopar AM/FM cassette in it
and it has a nice wood grain dash and Mopar Buddy Seat, and sliding rear window.
The body is good and bears the U.S. Forest Service Green Paint, under the hood as well, with a few primer spots here and there. It has a little surface rust and some light rust but a nice body for a complete restoration or drive it as it is with the 40 plus years of patina. The wood in the bed needs to be replaced and it looks like the floor pans have been replaced at some time. See the pictures. This truck is not perfect but it is a great candidate for a complete restoration. You can drive it as it is or while restoring it if you choose. However, the patina looks good as it is. Either way, you'll get looks and "thumbs up" all the time. If it doesn't sell, I will leave the 40 plus years of patina on it, put a couple of U.S. Forest Service decals/stickers on it and drive it as it is. It's a cool old truck. I know the rarity of this truck. When was the last time you saw one of these? Please ask questions and/or ask for pictures as needed but please ask questions early and/or ask for more pictures early in the auction so I time to respond. A $1,000 nonrefundable deposit is due with 48 hours of the end of the auction. |

eGarage interviews a couple with 65 Vipers
Thu, 12 Sep 2013Owning multiple vehicles can be a hassle worth enjoying if you're willing to spend the time and the money required to acquire and maintain them. But when it's hard to make ends meet while underused valuable hunks of metal, plastic and rubber sit happily taking up garage space, journeys into the depths of other people's well-developed automotive obsessions will either bring you and your cars closer together, or compel you to sell them off before you become one of those fanatics. A recent video by eGarage is one of those journeys, and it's not for the faint of heart: D'Ann and Wayne Rauh own 65 Dodge and SRT Vipers in a collection of automobiles that exceeds 100.
We're not sure if the couple has developed heat-resistant calves from stepping over Viper door sills made burning-hot by side-exhaust pipes, but we wouldn't be surprised if they did. We did learn that their obsession with the no-holds-barred sports car started in 2006 with a trip to a dealership to buy just one Viper, which goes to show how innocently car obsessions can start. But the Rauhs seem to be doing just fine - perhaps better - 64 more Vipers later.
Watch the video below for the full story and to see what eGarage claims is the world's largest Viper collection.
Dodge gives 2015 Viper slight power increase, new GT model
Tue, 02 Sep 2014With its troubling sales figures, the newly rechristened SRT Dodge Viper needs to come out swinging for 2015. To do that, Dodge has made a number of tweaks and changes that will hopefully carry the V10-powered sports car into more successful days.
First up for 2015 is a new GT model, which aims to marry the reasonable price of the base car with the adjustable suspension and trick stability control program of the GTS model. The GT also sports a cabin that's covered in Alcantara suede and Nappa leather as standard.
Also new for 2015 is the SRT TA 2.0 Special Edition, which expands on last year's Viper TA by adding new aerodynamic bits and bobs, including a larger rear wing, which ups downforce at 150 miles per hour from 278 pounds to 400 pounds.
Why the Charger Hellcat can't be ordered with a manual transmission
Sun, 16 Nov 2014Fans of truly irreverent amounts of horsepower will find lots to love in the form of the 2015 Dodge Challenger and Charger Hellcat models. Both of them send 707 ridiculous horsepower to the rear wheels; the only question is whether you want your absurdity delivered with two or four doors. Oh, and whether or not you want the option of a manual transmission.
If you prefer rowing your own gears, the choice is made for you; there is no manual gearbox option available on the Charger Hellcat, or any Charger model at all, for that matter. Wonder why? Well, besides the fact that almost nobody - sorry, clutch fans, but it's true - would choose to buy a Charger with a manual transmission, that is? The answer, according to an industry insider in a post written on Jalopnik's Opposite Lock forum, is the floorpan.
It's probably not a surprise to most of our readers that the Dodge Challenger and Charger share a large portion of their chassis structure, which is codenamed LX at Chrysler, but there are still some significant differences under the skin due to the shorter wheelbase and two-door coupe bodyshell of the Challenger, as opposed to the sedan shape of the Charger. One of the differences is the floorpan, the huge chunk of sheetmetal that makes up the floor of the car and props up such essential items as the car's seats.
