This is an original 1975 Dodge 440 Short Wide Box two wheel drive truck. The motor and trans has been rebuilt. The motor is the original motor for the truck and has been bored .030 over with 8 to 1 forged pistons. I had planned on putting a supercharger on it but have not made it that far. The front was already lowered before I got it and they just cut the springs. Still drives good but needs to be done right. I put a B-body 8 3/4 3.55 posi in the rear on top of the leaf springs so I could get the 10 inch wheels under the wheel wells. Had to cut out wheel wells in the truck bed for clearance. Planned on finding a junk box for the wheel wells and have them welded in for more of a factory look. No bondo in this truck at all. Original color was orange and floors are beautiful, rust free and still painted orange. Bumpers, grille and glass all nice. I have a tinted rear sliding window that will be included with truck as well as a clamp on rail tonneau cover that is in like new condition. Everything works on this truck including the gas gauge. Box is not original to truck, it was not that great. The wheels are Cragrar street stars and the tires are BFG T/A's and they are brand new. It has new brakes all the way around as well. Only problem that needs to be addressed before it can be driven daily is it leaks gear oil at the bottom of the third member so will need to be pulled and a new gasket installed. It does have a factory front sway bar and power steering. I have a clean clear title. I have owned this truck for about 8 years. For an extra $300 I will throw in a new carpet kit and a set of Doug Thorley Tri y headers which is less than what the headers alone cost.

Dodge Dart Mopar '13 special edition recalled over airbag woes
Mon, 09 Dec 2013Dodge is only building 500 examples of the black-and-blue Mopar '13 Dart, but the majority of them are now being recalled. Part of the Mopar upgrade included replacing the stock seat skins in the Dart with black and blue Katzkin leather, but the seat-mounted side airbags were reinstalled improperly during the upfitting process, which could affect the performance of the front seat side airbags.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration bulletin, a total of 374 Mopar '13 cars are being recalled due to side airbags that might not deploy in a side-impact collision. There have been no reports of the airbags not going off, but Chrysler will still need to reinstall the bags to ensure proper deployment. The recall notice is posted below, which gives information for Mopar '13 owners to contact Chrysler and NHTSA.
1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express in Generation Gap showdown with 1933 Ford Pickup
Fri, 18 Jul 2014Auto enthusiasts love a good debate, whether it's Mustang versus Camaro or Ferrari against Lamborghini. But how about a battle between two very different vintages of classic pickup trucks? In this case, the fight is between a 1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express and a 1933 Ford Model 46 truck with a flathead V8.
The shootout comes courtesy of the internet series Generation Gap, and its concept is super-simple. One guy prefers classics, and the other likes newer rides. They choose a category, pick two vehicles and put them head to head. In this case, neither is exactly modern, though. The Ford is more than old enough to receive Social Security checks, and the Dodge is hardly a young whippersnapper.
Other than both being pickups, these two models were made to serve very different functions. The Li'l Red Express was basically the progenitor of today's muscle trucks, with a big V8 that made it one of the quickest new models in its day (admittedly, 1979 was a rough time for automotive performance). On the other hand, the '33 Ford was just meant to work, with little pretense for anything else. One of the hosts describes it as "the simplest, most difficult" vehicle he's driven because of the tricky double clutchwork necessary to shift gears. Scroll down to watch the video and try to decide which of these two American classics you would rather have in your garage.
2015 Dodge Charger R/T NHRA Funny Car burns rubber into SEMA [w/video]
Tue, 04 Nov 2014Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is showing off a completely redesigned Dodge Charger Funny Car at this year's SEMA Show in Las Vegas and it's ready to blow through the NHRA timing lights next year. Initially, the shape might look like any of the other entrants in its class burning through the quarter mile, but this is the first comprehensive rethink for the racecar's aerodynamics since 2006, says Dodge.
Draped in classy red and black Mopar livery, the 2015 Dodge Charger R/T NHRA Funny Car tries to share the front and rear styling with its roadgoing counterpart, plus the scallops along the side, but this racer is all about crossing the finish line first.
The major goals for the redesign included making the body stronger and lighter without sacrificing aerodynamics, and that has been done with materials like Kevlar and carbon fiber. However, engineers have accomplished even more. By moving the cockpit further back, they've increased engine clearance and improved driver visibility.
