Any Swepty's in Your Town?

Post by DocsTruck »

I seem to have the only Sweptline in Auburn. I have been driving my truck nearly every day now, (to work and to school), the truck gets a lot of attention for sure. There are a lot of newer Dodge trucks around here but I have yet to see a Swepty.

I live in a relatively small town in Southern California, 30000 or so, and I've seen 6 or 7 other sweptlines. Makes me happy to see them!!

Hola There

Here in Colo Spgs ( & area's ), there are W's and D's everywhere. They all seem to act as if they never heard of this site ( or care to use the inter-net ).

If they are also driving other MoPars, the "Swepty" is for details.

Don't recall seeing any here locally in suburban Kansas City in a couple of years. Used to see a guy a couple of miles south of me occasionally cruising around in a beater crew cab sweptline, but not anymore.

We even had our annual mopar car club show with over 300 members, and over 170 vehicles showed up, and not a single Sweptline. A fellow 69 D200 owner did find me at the show (I drove my 69 Charger), asking about parts for his low mileage truck someonet hit. Gave him the web address to the site.

The coolest, largest Dodge RV I have ever seen showed up. Wish I had walked through it, as it was open to the public.

old Dodges around!

Post by Johns67 »

There was a white 65 short bed in our town, not any more. There are several turf green ones around, just park outside of peoples houses. Year after year they never move, but people will not sell em. One day I was driving up town and there sat a w-200, I think it was a 67 long bed. I got so excited and when I came back with the camera it was gone. It had some wicked tires on the 4x4 and when I looked in the interior on the drivers side, to see what it looked like. I saw the 44mag (hand gun) sitting on the front seat. I thought, I'd better ask, next time I want to look at some ones pride and joy. Got most of my part to make my D-200 into a w-200 from old trucks sitting in the field on ranches. Most of them gone now.

I've been in Des Moines since December of last year. I have seen about 14 sweptlines in the metro area and I'm still looking for more. When I lived in the Twin Cities I had seen 33 or so. There were some on ebay in that area that I never got to see in person so I know there were many more.

I know of my two, plus three, maybe four more D100's and a very rarely seen crew. All ours are working trucks-except one that looks semi-redone. A few others sitting around for years and years.

well i live in small town Cave Creek AZ, you probably haven't heard of it, the only ones i have seen are my little D100 ('63) that i have been ressuresting from the dead with my dad, and his two old dodges ('67) i think that mine is the coolest of them all though. escpecially with the new wood bed, and the only thing left is a new starter relay,and its open road! :dance i think that most of these old trucks have gone to the wind and have been juncked out for parts. my neighbor has one too.

There is a parked '68 LWB D100 up the street that the owner lets his graddaughters use as a playhouse, jungle gym, etc. He drove it daily up to about two years ago, and won't sell it.

Another truck, a SNB W-100, is about four miles away with a blown-up 318 and a 4-speed. It has sat for nearly 20 years, and it's going to rust into the ground before the owner will sell it.

My two '71s are up the street. I traded for a different project (non-Swepty, but still Mopar).

That's all there is around here.
