Up for sale is a 1968 3/4 ton 4-speed vintage Power Wagon with factory LU2 Braden PTO winch.  The truck is equipped with Dana 44 front axle and Dana 60 rear.  I bought this truck from the 2nd owner.  They bought the truck in 1970 and was used on their ranch in Elbert, Colorado.  When they bought the truck, they had Dodge install the Braden winch.  The truck was originally a 318 V8 but was replaced with a big block 400 in the 80's.  The truck had been sitting for quite a few years before I purchased it.  I put in a new starter and the engine runs very good; does not smoke and holds great oil pressure ( 80 psi).  Obviously, it will need tune-up parts, gas tank and lines flushed.  The engine has an old school Offenhauser intake manifold and Holley 4-barrel carb.  Brakes and hydraulic clutch will need work (I can bleed brakes and clutch to move the truck).  Unfortunately, when the big block 400 was put in the truck, they did not put the pto drive shaft for the winch back on the truck and was miss-placed a few years later and was lost.  I do have the drive unit that mounts to the transfer case but no pto shaft and no lever to engage the drive unit (see pics).  The pto drive shaft can be made along with the lever.  This Power Wagon has the usual cab rust that these trucks have.  The rockers, floor boards and three of the cab mounts (driver's side, rear cab mount is good and solid) have rust - nothing to extreme.  The fenders, doors, cowl, firewall, radiator support and frame rails are all rust free.  For the trucks age the body is nice and straight.  The only sizable damage is the passenger fender and is definitely repairable.  All glass is remarkably in very good condition for its age.  This truck had an old flatbed on it that I took off and scrapped.  So as you can see in the pics, there is no bed.  There are still plenty of 2-wheel drive D100's and D200's parts trucks out there, and a bed can be obtained.  This is a very good foundation for a nice restoration project on a truck that is getting very hard to find.  I hate to sell this truck, but I have to finish another project that is close to completion.  I will be answering any emails in the evening.  I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.  Please don't ask what the reserve is; it is very reasonable.  If you like the truck, please just bid.  I will accept Pay Pal only if the buyer agrees to pay the Pay Pal fees; otherwise cash on pickup.  $200. deposit due within 48-hours after end of auction.  Thanks for looking.

Dodge Charger Hellcat hitting 60 in 2.9 seconds on drag radials?

Thu, 02 Oct 2014

The Dodge boys and their cousins from SRT have shoehorned the same 707-horsepower, 6.2-liter supercharged V8 into both the Dodge Challenger and Charger. The former being a two-door, it's lighter than the latter four-door sedan. So it would stand to reason that the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat would be the quicker of the two, right?
Only that's not necessarily proving to be the case. On stock rubber, yes, the coupe beats the sedan: Dodge quotes a 0-60 time of 3.7 seconds for the Charger SRT Hellcat and 3.5 for the Challenger. Same gap across the quarter-mile: 11 seconds flat for the Charger versus 10.8 seconds for the Challenger. But according to recent reports, the story changes when you put both on drag radials.
While visiting Chrysler HQ in Auburn Hills, MI, TorqueNews.com caught wind of performance figures for the Charger Hellcat on drag tires: 0-60 in a mind-blowing 2.9 seconds and a quarter-mile in just 10.7. The latter figure just barely pips the Hellcat-powered Challenger's NHRA-certified figure of 10.8, making the Charger not only the fastest sedan on the market, but also the fastest muscle car. What isn't immediately clear, however, is whether the drag radials in question have any tread on them and are street-legal, or if they're pure slicks confined to a closed strip.

Dodge Challenger Scat Pack adds power and noise, with a warranty

Thu, 17 Apr 2014

If you want to go fast, there's certainly nothing wrong with the Dodge Challenger SRT8. With 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque for 2014, there's certainly not much to complain about. But what if you want something more aftermarket in flavor? There's no shortage of options, but while turning to the tuner world will make your car plenty fast, that extra power won't just shred rear tires, it'll torch your warranty, as well. That's where Dodge's Scat Pack comes in.
With three stages of mods for both the 5.7 and 6.4-liter Hemi V8s Challenger (as well as the 5.7-liter Charger and, soon, the four-pot Dart), the Scat Pack cars give drivers all the power, aggression and noise of a heavily modded aftermarket car while maintaining the piece of mind provided by the Dodge warranty.
Power gets bumped up to 485 horsepower and 475 pound-feet of torque with the 6.4-liter Scat Pack, while the 5.7-liter can provide up to 58 hp and 47 lb-ft of torque to add to the stock engine's 375 horsepower and 410 pound-feet. It's the latter engine that can really get some work done, with upgrades ranging from the mundane - intake and exhaust - to the racy, like the ported heads and high-flow headers.

NHTSA investigating power modules on Chrysler Group SUVs and minivans

Mon, 29 Sep 2014

The Center for Auto Safety is officially petitioning the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to begin scrutinizing alleged problems with the totally integrated power module (TIPM) on about 24 Chrysler Group SUVs and minivans. The advocacy group claims that the part's failure can cause affected vehicles to stall or not start at all. NHTSA is still looking into the accusations and deciding whether a full investigation is actually warranted.
The CAS petition claims at least 70 TIPM failures, but according to NHTSA, six of the complaints are for models that don't have the modules. In 34 of the reported cases, the vehicles refused to start, and in 17 of them the engine stalled. There were also two allegations of smoke and one of a fire. However, none of these affected airbag deployment or resulted in a crash.
This petition isn't the first TIPM-related problem for Chrysler Group. A recent report in the New York Times alleged that it found 240 complaints potentially related to the issue on NHTSA's website alone. In September, the automaker also recalled 230,760 examples worldwide (188,723 in the US) of the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango replace the fuel pump relay circuit inside of the TIPM-7 with one external to the unit. The original part could allegedly cause the models to stall without warning. Even earlier, the company also recalled about 80,000 examples of the Jeep Wrangler and Dodge Nitro in 2007 to have the module reprogrammed.
