Just bought this neat little dodge pickup. I have an idea its going to clean up real nice. It's wearing it's original paint and prospector decal. I've always wanted one of these with this prospector stripe as I thought they were really neat. This was purchased off of the original owner. It's a slant six truck with auto on the column. I plain on giving it a good buff to bring the shine back out on it. I also have a set of the original nos dog dish hubcaps that I throw on it as well. The only other thing I'll do to it is add a nice non step rear bumper.

My ramcharger had the same fadded paint look to it and it buffed out very nicely. I'm hoping this truck will turn out the same way. I might eventually find a nice set of chrome lil red express rims for it later on.

That is another nice find Ryan, I especially like the orange on those trucks. You are soon going to need a larger warehouse to store them all.

Nice truck!

It might look better with the wheels painted body color..

interior pic, looks like it's a standard 3 speed on the column. That will be different to drive(lol). Looks like the drivers side of the seat cover will need some repair as well as a new rubber floor mat. I'll recolor the door panels white.

Nice truck, I wish I could find one half as solid. I need a weekend driver and that is almost exactly what I am looking for.

Looks like it's on its way home today, cant wait to see it in person. The transporter said it looked very clean and the only spot he noticed was on the drivers side lower fender. If any one sees it in route let me know. It's going from New Jersey to Maine.

Ryan, real nice looking truck. I love the SWB trucks and the color is a + for sure. Looks to be in great shape for a Jersey truck....

I didn't think that neighborhood looked like Maine in Feb!

I like that truck, you would not find one that good here in the sunshine state! Trust me, I have been looking, did finally find a fair 85 from Alabama, only here because the owner got nabbed for DUI and never picked it up from the towing company.



It takes gasoline to interest me.

Well it's home and I love it. Got it all buffed out this morning and it runs perfect. Had to adjust the linking to make it shift good and now shifts perfect on the column.
