Well here it is! I never thought I would get rid of this one, but as we all know things in your life change.
This is my 1974 W-200 Crew Cab Powerwagon which was featured in the August 2012 issue of Mopar Muscle Magazine.
This truck started out as a fire truck at the Talladega Alabama airport and was purchased by a guy in Tennessee who I bought it from with just under 37,000 miles. When I bought it, it had many coats of paint on it, but the original was red. The entire truck was disassembled and media blasted in 2010 and at that time I was amazed that after over 35 years there was absolutely NO rust on this truck anywhere. The truck was repainted with an epoxy primer and Viper Red paint and is still rust free except for a small bubble on the bed by the wheel well. I also installed modern interior from a 2008 Dodge crew cab and even fabricated the storage under the rear seats. The truck was also given a set of new BF Goodrich Mud Terrain 35 x 12.5R 16.5 Tires (they only have about 200 miles on them and I have a 5th tire that has 0 miles) and the engine was taken down to the short block, cleaned, given all new gaskets and re-assembled with a new aluminum manifold, new distributer, air cleaner with cold air intake, Mopar valve covers, Hooker ceramic coated headers, and a Holly Truck Avenger carb. This truck is very clean and enjoyable to drive. It has a 4 speed with a granny gear, but you can still cruise at 70 mph. The truck had the 6" Rough Country lift kit on it when I bought it, I just added the tires. I could never list everything that was done to this truck, but that is the most important stuff. You will also get a lot of extra parts including an extra fuel tank, and the original in cab fuel tank, a good steering wheel with no cracks, the original tires and wheels, a spare windshield, and all the stuff to add A/C (the guy I bought it from stripped down another truck and gave that to me), and much more. my reserve is very low and probably a lot less than what I have in this truck. I also have a ton of photos documenting the entire restoration that I will put on a disc for you and copies of the Mopar Muscle Magazine. I am located just outside Ft. Wayne Indiana. Please feel free to ask any questions. A $1,000.00 deposit is required via pay-pal within 24 hours of auctions end.
This W-200 has a Dana 60 in the rear and a Dana 44 up front with locking hubs and a NP 205 transfer case
On Jun-24-13 at 06:09:08 PDT, seller added the following information:
I just bought new speakers for the JVC stereo, They are still in the box so the stereo is not hooked up
The truck also has a custom exhaust system with Flowmasters and an H pipe.

Dodge idles Viper production again at Conner Avenue
Mon, 07 Jul 2014You've got to hand it to Dodge for having the gumption to put the original Viper into production in the first place. It was, after all, much more of an emotional decision than a practical one, and a move which saw the first production V10 engine placed in a road car - long before the advent of the Lamborghini Gallardo, Audi R8, Porsche Carrera GT or Lexus LFA, not to mention the other Ford, BMW and Volkswagen Group models that used such engines.
It's now been 22 years since the first Viper entered production and the Viper still rolls on several generations later, but we're sad to say that courageous decision has not always been met with overwhelming sales success. In fact parent Chrysler was forced to idle the Conner Avenue plant where the Viper is made back in April due to slow sales. And while production resumed again as planned on June 23, it apparently didn't do the trick.
As a result, Chrysler corporate communications chief Shawn Morgan revealed to Autoblog that the assembly line has been shut down again for another two weeks. The line was up and running for nearly two full work weeks from June 23 until the holiday weekend that started on Thursday, July 3. But instead of coming back online today as planned, it's been idled again for the weeks of July 7 and 14. That means it will be July 21, at the earliest, before the serpentine supercars start slithering down the assembly line at Conner Avenue again. Once it does, however, production is set to resume at the same pace it was before the shutdown.
2013 Dodge Charger SRT8 Super Bee
Tue, 12 Mar 2013I can pinpoint the exact moment when I fell in love with this car. It was starting down a nearly straight entrance ramp at 15 miles per hour when I buried the throttle. In a moment, I was thrown back into my seat as the big SRT8's engine came to life with commensurate sound, fury and force, bringing me up to 75 mph in what felt like two blinks of an eye. This thing feels so much quicker than its 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque would lead you to believe. And mashing the right pedal never, ever gets old.
But beyond sheer speed, I found a whole lot to like about the Charger SRT8 during my week with the Pitch Black test car here in Detroit. And while the whole Super Bee kit isn't really my style, it's really easy to overlook those badges for a package that offers so much for so little.

Ralph Gilles responds to Dodge rumors, says brand is 'here to stay'
Fri, 12 Jul 2013This is why we love Ralph Gilles. While in Italy hanging out with a group of Viper Club members in Europe, the SRT boss took the time to respond to a question directed at him on Instagram in regards to the future of Dodge.
Recent reports have painted a bleak picture for Dodge, but Gilles defended Chrysler's full-line brand by stating that the rumors are, "all rumors, Dodge is here to stay! It may get more focused going forward but not killed!" The idea of a "more focused" Dodge brand could lend some credibility to reports that the Grand Caravan and Durango are on their way out, which would leave Dodge solely as a car, or car-based, automaker.
