Re: 1971 D-100 Adventurer

I put some 8 inch steel wheels on the back with some poverty caps. I really like how it looks. I will attach a picture, although n...

Re: dodge diesel emblems, value?

That is a really neat truck. I would love to have a Dodge heavy truck. The Bighorn is #1 on my bucket list, but one like this would do nicely as an RV puller. There's one like it coming up at auction in your neck of the woods next month. Its listed under fargo but I spoke to the guy having the auct...

Re: 1971 D-100 Adventurer

I love the truck, BUT, is that a Buick glass top next to it? I've NEVER seen one of those in the 47 years I've been a automobile nut.... Could you post some pictures of that for me? Thanks Joel The Buick is actually a Pontiac that belongs to a friend of mine that I acquired the '71 Adventurer from....

Sounds good! I still have your parts, I just haven't headed over to Ab. yet. Sheldon No problem. As of today I no longer own this truck, but I would still like to get those parts. The orange '71 is going to my cousin in trade for a '61 Fargo powerwagon I have posted about before. The tailgate panel...

It looks rust free, did Dodge make water drain improvements in the 70's to help prevent rust or does your new truck have rust?
