1969 Dodge D100 - thoughts

The two I had.

I was painting the bumper at the time for the black one. The turquoise one in the background was sold back to my friend Dave, who I had bought it from. That had a 440 with an automatic replacing the slant it had. Last I heard, it had rusted away to nothing and was being cut up to make a trailer from the box. (sniff) The black one had a 340 with automatic that I grenaded. A friend's cousin bought it and had it for years. He put a 383 with a four speed in it. It changed hands a couple times, got painted flat black and ended up looking like this. I thought about buying it back, but I hated the look it has now.

Yes. And cruise! 400/auto with an Edelbrock 4bbl. AZ souvenir.

Perfect... though I do have a love for a small block/4speed too...

Got to love the stepside beds.

Mopar = Utiline/Sweptline.

Stepside and Fleetside are Chevy trademarked terms.

The above '68 D100 is a lowered truck I sold about a year ago. Damn fine truck!
