Default attacking other dogs....

Benji will bark like CRAZY when he sees another dog...like the attacking bark..then if he gets close enough he will try to bite the dog ! Big or small dogs....sometimes he will sniff the dogs nose, and they will play together, but mostly he is mean .....I want to take him places , but his barking is going to keep him in the car !! We have a VERY passive mix breed that I was hoping would teach Benji how to interact with other dogs, but he isnt getting it !
He also barks at things he doent know what it is ....pumpkins, wheelbarrows, a man carrying a garbage bag......I think he may just be a wuss, and is scared of everything. He is 6 months, has always been a fraidy cat....
CAN THIS HABIT BE BROKEN ?
I have tried turning him upside down, and holding him there, but he gets more fearful, and doesnt submit, no matter how long I hold him there !
