Re: Replacing Mechanical Oil Pressure Gauge Hose (68 D200 31
I'm confused... Does the line thread onto the back of the gauge or is it a barbed fitting? Mine leaks right onto my foot, so I need to fix it before it gives me a skin disorder!

Re: Unusual and Unloved?
Its just whatever floats your boat and makes your socks jump up and down. :lol: To me that short bed 383 w/4WD is a very cool truck. I agree 100%! There was a 69 shortbed 383 Power Wagon at a local show last week for sale, but unfortunately it was rusted everywhere it wasn't dented and he still wan...

Unusual and Unloved?
So I've been perusing the forum for a while and have found quite a bit of useful info, but it seems like the non-CSS/HPP/PW trucks are regarded as lower grade trucks. I know those trucks are special, but I'm having a hard time finding many shortbed 383/4 speed trucks like mine. Does its being a Cust...

Re: New Shoes...
They were 15x5s, apparently an option because they're listed on the door tag.PwrWgnDrvr wrote:Were the split rims 16"? Factory 15" weren't split. 16" 5 lug are kinda scarce.

I'm looking for some redline center caps, but they're proving to be a bit elusive and expensive!franktiregod wrote:Cool. Are you gonna leave it as is or put caps on?

Re: My first Sweptline!
Cool looking bike. I like the front forks and the way the handlebars tilt forward. Too bad you don't have it anymore... Well, we could say that about ALLOT of things that we don't have anymore. Here is a pic of my RR. Nice Roadrunner! A buddy of mine has a blue 69 RR convertible too. He has quite a...

Re: My first Sweptline!
I love the red with black top color combo. I too have a 68' short bed. The 235/75-15 that I run all around the truck look good. And the speedometer is spot on with all the traffic cameras I pass. I would like about 2 inches more width in the back thou. Here is a pic of me and you can see the front ...

Re: My first Sweptline!
They're old bias plies, I think 8.20s but not 100% sure. I try not to stare too closely at the split rims, I heard they have a nasty bite!OKCSweptline wrote:Good lookin' truck!
What size tires are those? Looks like they fit really well.

Thanks Jim! It just has a tiny bit of rust along the top of the passenger side rocker, just where the lip for the mat is. There's not even a single dent in the bed floor! Exceptionally clean truck, especially for a rust prone Dodge...
