new guy, location bay area CA

Post by sovereignroom »

Hi everyone, I have a 1966 Dodge D100 that I'm looking to repair, as of right now I'm currently sanding out the body, it needs tons of work, with lots of parts needed as well as lots of knowledge that needs to be heard. I would love some assistance from anyone. It has a 225 slant six cyl engine, that's all I know, lol so pls anyone who sells parts, any special spots for repairs, let me know!

Welcome to the site! MOST if not all Sweptlines will need some floor rust repair along with Rockers (most times). Bottoms of the doors, Cowls can have rust, hoods under the DODGE letters... Yep, they are susceptible to RUST. I've seen some pretty nasty trucks come back, so don't despair everyone here is willing to help out with advice. Parts can also be found, just post in the "Parts Wanted" area.

Just have FUN!
Jim
