Vehicle Detail

1974 Dodge D800 Truck Factory Race Car Transporter. 1 of 6 built for Chrysler’s Drag Racing Teams. 1 of 2 original Rod Shop Dodge transporters (1974-78 body style). This rig hauled cars for team drivers Bob Riffle, Gene Dunlop, the Fink Brothers, Arlen Vanke, and Ronnie Sox! Returned to Chrysler in 1978. Truck remained on an MSO until 1987 when it was sold by Chrysler to Bill Hancock and Arrow Racing. Body plate says “Kirk Racing Cars” (Gil Kirk’s Rod Shop). 181” wheelbase, 28 foot box, dual 50 gallon fuel tanks, hardwood floors in excellent condition, sleeper, 38 foot total length. Box sides and slide-out ramps are aluminum. Rear roll-up door is wood, but is starting to rot and should be replaced. Original, numbers matching 413 2-bbl, 5-speed manual, 2-speed rear, 25,000# max GVW, air brakes. Professionally maintained by Chrysler racers, engineers and mechanics its entire life! Solid body. Some rust in bottom of doors and rockers. The cabs on these trucks are IDENTICAL to all 1972-80 Dodge standard-cab pickups. That means that doors, glass, rubber, etc. is all available aftermarket. Lamps and lenses were manufactured by the aftermarket originally and are still available. Interior trim is identical to 1972-76 pickups. The truck currently has Dodge Daytona cloth buckets and carpeted trim on the headliner and cab sides. Originally the cabs were bare steel, except for carpet and door panels. The interior is functional but is in need of updating and cleaning. Aluminum diamond plate running boards and lower box sides (will shine like chrome if you have the patience). Fiberglass roof fairing. New 4412 Holley carb, new Carter electric fuel pump, fresh tune-up, good brakes. Runs and drives, but needs TLC. 22.5” Alcoa aluminum wheels. Desperately needs tires. I have a love hate relationship with this truck. One day I can't wait to restore it. The next day I don't have time or money. Give me a call before I change my mind again! :) Jeff 614-580-9428.
