Sweet find!

No 12 valve, just gonna keep it running, gonna be my rainy day commuting rig, frustrating to run the 6. 7 for 12 miles, turn it off, and then back home 12 hrs later, 3 days on, 3 days off. No under cover parking for the Harley at the new facility.



D-200, newer 318, headers, duals, truck 3 spd, runs out pretty nice.

Awesome... . I love to see older vehicles actually being used.



There's a guy around here that daily drives, and works I may add, a beautiful late '70's Ford Highboy.

Drove it to work today, got my buddy thinking he needs a project truck now!

I'm going with my Dad in the morning to go look at a 69' and then a 71'. The 69's a D200 with a 440 and the 71's a slant 6 but is the short bed D100. I want the 71' short bed as a street/strip project but Dad's leaning more toward the 69'. Either way you can't go wrong, i love the Sweptlines and you just don't see them around much anymore. Keep us posted on her!

The old school Dodge's are proving harder to find than a chevy. I'd like to one day find one (a w100 or w200 4x4) and drop a 4Bt package from a old bread truck. I think it'd be a cool project...

 

[RideSlow2004]

Hate to think about it, but the truck has to go, got a bill to pay, and I gotta cut back on some stuff.



$1700 or offer.

 

[jclark5810]

Have you done anything to it? Still runs and drives?

 

[RideSlow2004]

Yes, runs and drives fine, I am trying to sort out why brake lights don't always work, and front signals work, but rear don't, sometimes. Was advised probably corroded fuse block, and I need to pull it down and clean it up.



I got a new switch, and it helped, but not consistently.



Been slowly cleaning stuff up, but too much overtime at work, and too danged tired when I get home.
