Re: 71 Dodge D200
Update: I looked at the truck made an offer and the owner said he would rather hang on to it...
Update II: After a month or so Isaw the truck was still for sale so I made another offer and he accepted. I'll be bring it home this week. The truck runs great. Does need a little body work though. Does someone make lower door skins for theses trucks also one of the kickwells needs replacement or patching. I dont plan on a major restoration as I have numerous other projects. I just wanted something for bumming around town and hauling junk around...I'll post some pic asap

Re: 71 Dodge D200

Well...its home.... Needs a good cleaning and some tlc. There is a lot of rust in the rockers Im a little concerned about. The rear door skins need some patching...but it runs like a top and drives great

Re: 71 Dodge D200
here is an updated pic. I put new tires on her as well as painted all the rims with a "rhino coat" style sprayable bedliner. I also removed the rubber fender flares.
