Vehicle Detail
I bought this truck in Febuary of 2013 with the intention of turning it into a Pro Street. Looks like I will never get to it with the other things I have going on. Was told by previous owner that the engine was a recent rebuild with less than 500 miles.( original 225 with 410 gears) I drove it home 2 hours and it ran terrible. Distributer was out 1 tooth, valves were all over the place, vacume advance was bad, carb was out of adjustment (new carb) and vacume leaks galore. Fixed all that and now she purrs. Runs and drives but inspection expired last month and I havent had it inspected. It is an ameteur single stage paint job that looks great from 20 feet but it has small scuffs here and there when you study it. There are 3-4 places that bubbling has started. I have not passed a magnet over it to see if has bondo but I would think that it would have to for a truck this old. It needs some small things at the dash if you want to restore it. Oil pressure light, instrument cluster light, that sort of stuff. Wipers are slow but work. All headlights, break lights etc work. Heater works. The glass is not cracked but the drivers window only rolls half way down. All of the exterior trim is there but some has been painted like the bumpers and the rest needs a good polishing.Passenger door handle needs to be taken apart and corrected. The button does not line up by itself and you have to align it with the whole in the handle to open it. Shifter on Dash between steering wheel and radio cut out. Pretty Cool. Thats really all I know about it. This is pretty solid truck for an unrestored 1968. These things are hard to find. This is not a show truck, But it is a solid old dodge pickup.This would be great to start with for a street rod oran excellant candidate for restoration. Any questions will be answered to the best of my ability.
