Vehicle Description
This is a very cool vintage pickup that is going to let you choose
your own adventure. You can buy this affordable 1968 Dodge D100 to
use as a turn-key honest classic cruising pickup. But since these
are always a rare sight in the classic scene, it's also the perfect
candidate for any build - from a factory original to a Mopar hot
rod.
You're looking at pickup that will attract attention in the vintage
truck community. After all, Dodge always produced less than Ford
and Chevy. But more than just rarity, it has a style all its own.
You see it in details like the tasteful crease that runs from
headlight to taillight and the hint of overhang on the cab. The
blue paint was recently resprayed to give it a higher gloss finish.
Plus, the white elements on the roof, grille, lettering, mirror,
and bumpers give it a coordinated two-tone personality. This is a
desirable long wheelbase version, so there's plenty of work left in
this Dodge. And so you'll love that the long bed is even protected
by a modern liner.
Inside, the exterior blue is continued on the door tops and
pillars. It's joined by black on the carpeting and dash. A great
midpoint between these two colors is the dark blue bench seat. The
intricate pattern on this really gives the truck an
original/survivor-style presentation. The dual-spoke steering wheel
has that perfect vintage truck feel, and it gives you a clear view
of the correct full gauge panel. So the whole interior has a very
clean and correct atmosphere.
Correct presentation extends to under the hood, too. The bold red
block against the blue engine bay is a real standout. This is
believed to be the original 225-cubic inch inline-six that this
pickup was born with over a half-century ago. Sure, that engine bay
could easily swallow any Mopar muscle V8 you want to drop in, but
we're always excited to see a vehicle that carries this kind of
history. Slant six motors are great for durability and torque.
Since you get to take full advantage of it with a classic
column-shifted manual transmission, you get to experience what a
mighty Mopar motor this really is.
In case you haven't noticed, we are already big fans of this truck
as it is. There's a huge amount of potential from mild to wild, but
until you decide its next chapter, this classic pickup will provide
you with plenty of smiles. Call now!
