Up for auction is a very rare Dodge Adventurer Warlock D100 Pickup. These D13 pickups were built by Chrysler as "Adult Toys" The concept being toys built to be enjoyed by adults. This particular pickup was built in Canada 9/77 and was sold in 1978. It has been here in sunny Arizona since 1980. There are a few small rusted areas that will be need to addressed in the future. This vehicle is nearly all original, the only items that I can find that are not original are the steering wheel, and that original seat was recovered some time in the past.

 

this truck would make a GREAT starting point for a project, or fix the few small things and enjoy as it is!

brand new battery

rebuilt carburetor

original 15x10" rims

power brakes

vented discs up front

original glass

appears to have been repainted sometime in the past, in the original Black Metallic. The interior appears to be factory paint.

the truck currently has a 4 speed shifter on the floor, it is possible it was swapped from a column shifted transmission in the past.

original oak boards for the bed sides are decent to good condition, and also the wedges that hold them in tightly.

original 318 V8

numbers matching truck

equipped with Air conditioning, Power Steering and Power Brakes from the factory

recent tune up

starts, runs, stops, and drives great with no creaks or rattles

 

the following items will need to be addressed sometime in the future:

the tires have decent tread, but are starting to show their age and starting to crack

there are two small areas of the passenger floor boards that are rusted through.

passenger side taillight lens is faded and missing a small piece.

there is also small patch approximately 1.5"x3" of rust under the paint in the step area on the passenger side of the truck

wood in the bed near the tailgate is showing its age

the seat has been recovered in the past, and will need to be redone again

both the front and rear bumpers have been tweeked

there is a small dent on the front drivers side fender, a paintless dent removal pro could likely pop it out.

the handles on the door panels need some TLC

dash is cracked

 

 

As it sits now, it runs, drives, stops, starts very well. This would be a great rare dodge to restore, or to fix the few minor items and enjoy as is.

I will gladly help you arrange shipping from Tucson, Az. But ultimately it is the winning bidder's responsibility to arrange shipping if it is needed.

When you are bidding on this item, you are bidding to win it.  At end of auction $1000 will be due within 24hours. The balance is due within 72hours of the closing of the auction, unless other arrangements are made.

Any questions or to schedule a time to check the vehicle out please call and ask for me, David @ 520-312-1139.

Chrysler recalls small number of 2013-2014 cars and trucks over engine debris

Thu, 12 Dec 2013

Chrysler is recalling a small number cars over issues with their 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines. The recall, which affects 522 examples of its 2013 Dodge Avenger and Chrysler 200 models, as well as 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot CUVs has to do with potential debris in the balance shaft bearings.
The abrasive stuff can cause the oil pressure to drop, which could lead to the engine stalling or outright failure. This situation could at best leave drivers stranded and at worst lead to a crash.
Chrysler will begin notifying owners, who will need to report in to have the balance shaft module replaced. All repairs are naturally free of charge. Scroll down for the bulletin from NHTSA.

Dodge Journey gets more SUV-like look with new Crossroad model

Fri, 31 Jan 2014

Looking to play up its aging three-row crossover, Dodge will introduce a new model for its Journey franchise at next week's Chicago Auto Show. The 2014 Dodge Journey Crossroad will be a new trim level positioned between the SXT and Limited, and it will be distinguished from other Journey models thanks to a handful of styling add-ons.
Plucking a page right out of the appearance playbook of the Ford Explorer Sport, the Journey Crossroad gets a meaner, more SUV-like demeanor. The Journey has often straddled the line between tall wagon and crossover, but this new trim goes a long way toward skewing its visuals toward the utility vehicle end of the spectrum. That's thanks largely to the Platinum chrome exterior trim on its roof rails and side sills, unique fascias, smoked headlights and taillights and, of course, those black 19-inch wheels. Inside, the Journey Crossroad will get a similar treatment, with darker, Liquid Graphite accents throughout the cabin, and the model will also come standard with leather seats (which Dodge says are a new design), and Chrysler's giant 8.4-inch Uconnect screen.
The 2014 Journey Crossroad goes on sale this spring with a starting price of $24,995 (*not including $995 for destination) for the four-cylinder, front-wheel-drive model, but Dodge says that the model will also be offered with more power and capability from the optional 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 and all-wheel-drive. Scroll down for the full press release, and check back next week for our live coverage from Chicago.
