Old Dodge truck. Deal or not??

[ratrodney]

Hey all.

Might be able to get this old 56,57,58ish?? Dodge truck. It has a small block mopar and I think a 3 or 4 speed tranny, but owner wasnt there for me to get in the cab so not sure. Its nice n solid and it runs n drives.
I can nab it for about 8-900 bucks! Good deal?? Opinions??? RR

Looks cool, does it have a title?

Not bad . Don't see those everyday. Is it still on the original frame ?

 

[PhilJohnson]

Looks like a decent deal. From the looks of it the truck seems like it was driving in the not too distant past. I am curious if it is still sitting on the original frame or if someone did a frame swap.

 

[ratrodney]

Not sure but I think its original?? Ill chk though. Tnx, RR

Two indicators ... the motor looks to be in contact with the firewall, and the wheels seem to be sticking out too far . See what it looks like under the cab. Cool truck tho

Great looking truck, I would say there has been some updates on it looking at the master cylinder, Mine is just a single but mine is also D100 not 200.

If it runs I would jump on it if I had the money.

 

[TudorP15]

If it has a title, runs and drives, under a grand I would jump on it..

 

[Sam_Fear]

Any solid truck that runs and drives is worth a grand. As long as there is title!

Power steering looks to be hooked up too.

Engine looks like a big block...

Looks like a 383 or possibly a old 361... don't think it's a small block... but good find for the money..... i'd grab it up....
JMHO

old dodge.

Not the original engine and not a smallblock.Dodge smallblock dist. is in the rear of engine.You might be lucky and its an older 383 bigblock.Running and a (title) its worth the money.No title its useless except on the farm.

 

[Charley Davidson]

As Howie Mandell would say "Deal or no deal?"

Even without a title I'd be tempted, some states are a breeze on old stuff.

I really don't know of any but that's what I hear[S

 

[liljgoneman]

thats a bigblock! offer him 6 bills and see what happens.

 

[woodman]

I like it. Trucks are becoming more popular as hot rods. If you are thinking about a chop, it might be more difficult with the curved front window.

 

[busch]

It runs drives title good deal for the money RR

 

[R Pope]

That's a 200 cab, a half ton was a 100. Does it have 5 bolt wheels? The 200 would have had 6, or even 8.

 

[schine]

i'd say make it yours!!!

 

[Willowbilly3]

My bet it isn't on the original frame. The master cylinder is one clue and the power steering pump. Plus the mentioned wide front wheel stance.
Still not a bad price. I think it's a 57-58, definitely not a 56.

That booster/MC is from an 80`s 1/2 ton dodge. However, the motor looks like a 70`s big block. Not for sure on that, but it is definitely not a small block. I say grab it up, then if you don`t like it, you can always sell/give it to me

-Johnson

Oh, sidenote: if that engine/tranny are from a 70`s dodge pickup, the tranny(if it`s a stick) is probably a 4 speed.

I would buy it in a heartbeat.[dr
