Vehicle Description
A vintage 4x4 pickup for an obtainable price is already enticing.
But when you start to think how seldom you see a 1969 Dodge D100
Adventurer, especially with their original V8, and you realize that
this complete and powerful pickup is a rare treat.
You know this is the kind of truck that gets people talking. Dodge
pickups had a style all their own. The face seems a bit beefier
than the Fords or Chevys. But the sweeping line that starts at the
headlights and runs the full profile is something you'd expect on a
'60s sport coupe, not a workman's vehicle. So this is a handsome
and rugged total package. That's why it looks so good with the
professionally applied bold red. While this one has great original
features like the bright chrome bumper and factory wheel covers, we
think the added dual hood scoop gives this one some needed extra
distinction. But as nice as this total presentation is for showing
off, don't be afraid to use this 4x4 for true truck duty. After
all, this has the added utility of the longer bed model, and it has
been covered in liner paint to protect it from all your chores.
Plus, you even have a ball hitch on the rear step bumper.
Part of the premium Adventurer package means an upgrade interior.
It starts with the split bench seat that offers space for three,
but bucket-level individualized comfort for everyone. And since
this pickup is believed to have averaged only around 1,500 miles
annually, it's not hard to believe this can be original and still
be so well presented. The thin three-spoke steering wheel has that
perfect vintage truck feel, and it gives you a full view of the
gauges. In true classic truck fashion, you're within easy reach of
everything from the heat/defrost controls to the AM/FM/cassette
stereo.
When you take a look at the original 383 cubic-inch V8, we bet you
wished you looked this good and correct after nearly a half-century
on this earth. Of course, good maintenance always helps with this
presentation. The blue block and valve covers join the large black
air topper to remind you exactly what Mopar big block power looked
like in 1969. And topped with a four-barrel carburetor, this one
has plenty of power and adds plenty of bass for the stainless dual
exhaust. Chrysler's stout A727 Torqueflite three-speed automatic
transmission feeds the two-speed transfer case, so you can pull
true 4x4 duty in this well-presented and rare Dodge.
The sale comes complete with title documentation, so you can help
trace the lineage of one of the most interesting vintage pickups
around. It's impressive that this much distinction and utility is
also so affordable. Don't miss out, call today!
