Show us your trucks that you throw stuff at,...

I'm not talking about your Shiney Saturday Night Specials,...We see those everyday at work or on the highway driven by left lane commandoes...

Show us your rusty, dented, cracked windshield everyday work trucks that never fail to start, that are usually overloaded,...That haven't been washed since dirt was invented,....That emit debris from the cab when the pasenger door is opened,...The one you buy used tires for,...You know, the truck yer dawg rides in on Saturday morning dump runs,...I know they are out there,...Lets see em,...

Here's mine,...paid a cool 2300 buckies for it,... Ain't she purty?!.

heres my ol 73 D100 camper special hauling my 66 from its 7 year hiatus in the yard a couple yeas ago, sadly someone roadraged on me and killed it via ditch at 70+ mph. it had a 73 monaco highway patrol car 360 with a close ratio NP435A, 8 3/4 rear 3.23's one wheel peel, p/s p/b. Suprisingly a really awesome towing machine. Now i have my 74 W100, original 318 shortblock with a weiand/holley top end, reman heads (it ate the exhaust valve seats, late 73 build) Clutchmasters 3200 lb. capacity borg and beck clutch, NP435L wide ratio 4 speed, 205 t-case, dana 44 up front 8 3/4 rear, 3.55's. pretty fun truck it goes anywhere i want it to.

thanks! its a bumper from a 77 W250, it was a ramsay factory PTO winch option available for dodges. the winch drum was broken, and it wouldnt have worked for my truck anyway, i have a divorced 205, the 77 was a married 203. different pto unit and different driveshafts.
 
Found this one with a bad engine for $500. Got about $1700 in it now.Use it everyday.Plus side is it is a D350 Still has carb,No Cats.Last year 88. Minus side 4.10 gears and no overdrive. Not very highway friendly.

Here is a pic of my 78 W-150 I bought of the original owner this past summer, it has 79K miles.
I got it for $800.00 because the gentleman became too old to drive, he was 92.

It has a 318, 4-speed, sliding rear glass, 15x7 road wheels, ps, pb and radio delete, pretty plain jane truck, but this is the first I have seen with radio delete.

When I was cleaning out the glove box I found the original window sticker, bill of sale in excellent condition because it was in the bottom of the glove box un-touched since 78.

I gave it a good tune up, it had the original date code 1978 plug wires.
Rebuilt the front driveshaft cv because it had never been greased.
Replaced the front wheel bearings, and emergency brakes.
Thru an new set of tires on it.
I have less than $2000.00 in a work truck I trust to drive anywhere.

There are a ton of nice 70's Dodge's on here!

I bought this as a parts truck for my 4x4, but I'm now re assembling it to use as a work truck.

Nice find,...almost looks like the old Rapid Transit plate at first glance
 
It works year round. The only time it has ever been washed since I got it 5 years ago is when it rains. Open all the windows and slider and the interior cleans itself. I know it is not a Dodge but it has 190K miles with original running gear and does whatever I want it to.

Hey, Oldman,, North East? You know a grape farmer by the name of Dan Betts? He may or maynot be farming any more.We used to haul grapes mid 80's from there to the Pittsburgh area.Sold him my C65 Flatbed/Dump in the early 90's when I gave up.Now that was a good work truck!
