You want another dodge? 72 d100

[@thomasdaniels2608]

I had a 1985 Dodge I bought used from a guy who plowed snow in an apartment complex. The truck had 16,576 miles on it. (back and forth) It had rust (upstate N.Y.) it ran great, but the box was ready to fall off. Had a 318 with a 727 trans & 4wd. I drove that truck for 17 YEARS !!! and plowed snow every winter,I had a long driveway. By the time I sold it, I had replaced everything except the motor and trans. 2 cabs, 3 frames 3 boxes, as I was driving one day it dawned on me that It looked like and easter egg . and the only things original were the engine the trans, steering wheel and the strip where the wipers were. It ended up in a junk yard, and it was used as a "yard truck". BTY I've got 8 years on it's replacement , a '99 with a 360, with some "upgrades" to the motor and trans. sadly, rust is taking it's tole. but, with 172,000 on it, it will still run up to 80 if called upon......

My 1973 Toyota Pickup sat in my yard for 12 years after the brakes went out and started almost immediately and drove away with no problems. Loaded the old girl onto a flatbed and brought her to the new house. Started restoring it last year and it starts and runs flawlessly. Dad got it free as a wreck from a friend of my Grandfather's in 1989 and finished his rebuild in 1994. He only put about 17k miles on it as his work truck, so it has about 106k miles total. About 12k miles since engine and clutch rebuild. Nearly flawless mechanical condition aside from the brakes, but its absolutely horrid as far as cosmetics.

Thanks for sharing your video! I'm Steve from north Florida and I'm 50 years old. I bought my 1972 Dodge 100 318 from Florida Division of Forestry....it was still the dark green body with white top half of the cab. Short wheel base regular bed. Had been MAINTAINED to say the least. I actually had the State maintenance log for the truck in my glove box. Anyway you have a gem right there no matter what you decide to do. I ended up selling mine to a young man that needed it to support his wife and new baby so the Green Dodge lives on!

[@preston121068]

Had a white 1985 Dodge PU years back I used primarily as a track truck with a 440 6 pack in it. But I did this really cool mod to the tailgate. It had the raised DODGE across the center of it. I cut the interior side of the tailgate out in the middle so I could see the raised letters on the outer side. I then cut the highest points of the raised letters out (they were slightly tapered) and refitted the cutouts with white tinted Plexiglas using epoxy. I then took the cut out section from the inside of the tailgate and mounted a red LED light bar that was close to the width of the entire cutout to that and welded it back into place. Cleaned it all up, repainted and wired the lights to the brakes. Was a great effect as with no brakes on it basically looked just as it did before but once you hit the brakes the DODGE would light up red, it really popped. Edit: Should you do this mod be sure to use at least 1/2 thick plexiglass and taper it to match the taper of the raised letters. It will add stability to the metal you removed from the lettering. My first attempt I used just 3/16 inch and it was a bit flimsy. I realized it luckily on the first letter I did and got 1/2 inch which worked perfectly and was easier to fit.

My daily driver is a short bed 98 dodge ram p'up. Iyears ago I bought a 71 datsun p'up and had to pull it out of the weeds, had been sitting up 6-7 yrs. Friend helped me pull it to his place. We drained everything, put new fluids, cleaned points, took carb apart and cleaned it, never bough a kit for the carb. I drove that truck for 8 years, then one day came home from work and started taking it apart, took me little over 7 months tinkering with it, stripped it to the frame. Rebuilt everything, not one bolt left unturned, it turned out great, drove it another 4 years and sold it to buy an 82 mazde p'up cause it had. 5-speed and air-conditioner. Drove it for 8 years, gave it to my daughter when I got me a short, stepside chevy with 350. The mazda still run great with 302 thousand miles on it, never did any work to the motor, still had the factory valve cover gasket. I always tell people 'it's just nuts and bolts', I love messing with old pick-ups. My first 'car was a 61 chevy pick-up'. Paid 175$ for it, my dad drove it home for me cause I was only 15 and did not have a lisence or a learners permit. Good old memories......

I REALLY miss my 81 d100 with the 225 slant 6. Was a trooper. Come to fine out, the block had a hairline crack between 2 cylinders but it kept running. It also may have ran on only 5 cylinders at times, yet it kept going. Only had a 3spd auto but could hit 90mph. Only thing that killed it was a mechanic that left the engine in the rain, he was supposed to rebuild it with the parts I bought. I lost the truck when I bought yet another engine and hired another shop. Well they took over a year and then shit down on me and I lost the truck when they went out of business. Being out of state at the moment made it impossible to get the truck. I'm 1500 miles away. About $8k later and still no truck. Great video, the older trucks were awesome

Awesome find with a v8 and a 3 speed manuel and duel exhaust still sounds good. Im glad to see someone putting this one back on the road

[@teamgrizzly2859]

I would love to see a series of this being a build. I say keep the old rusted out look!

[@towrecker]

bet you a dollar thats one of those old state of tennessee trucks , they had a bunch of them , and the color , I bet it is... and the fact it's a radio delete truck , being someone has put that antenna on the drivers side ...

[@Timmy91000]

Maybe, but the thing people don't realize is that these trucks had factory orange colors. Not all orange pickups were state trucks.

[@rickdevault2535]

Try that with a chevy. Great old dodge, thanks for saving it. My luck when it started a million bees and a couple of snakes would have been living inside.

Outstanding! I had an orange 85 GMC step side that I loved, still miss that truck... always thought that the side step was very handy.

The exhaust sound...Awesome ! Sounds like : " what doesn"t kill you makes you stronger.." If I live in the states....Do I need a cool truck to go to work ? Go to junkyard ! :D Huge work to restore such a car but it's worth ! This exhaust sound..the shapes...I like very mouch ! :) This exhaust sound..the shapes... You brought the soul of a old machine back to life .Good work , Dylan ! Keep it up !

First time viewer as I’m into trucks. To me, that would be a keeper. Love the glass packs as I always had many on my trucks...hope to see more...thx.

[@DavidHernandez-vj1dy]

Diamond in the rough it could be fixed up

[@KeepItBrick]

I respect anyone willing to save an old truck, good job.

[@goodolef1009]

it’s crazy how easy and reliable all of these old trucks truly are

[@KenW66]

Good to see Forest Rump running and drive itself out of the junkyard.

[@joshuacooper4329]

God bless you bro for saving that old school dodge hope to see on barrette Jackson show

[@BrodieBr0]

Ah yeah they started putting disc breaks on the front around 72 I think. I had an 71 Dart Swinger with drums all the way around. Beautiful truck you found here! I doubt any new ones would crawl out of their grave sitting that long without 50 sensors needing replacement. Great vid!

[@ivanferguson2019]

Ive got a late 72 d100 with disc on the front. Electronic ignition also.

[@BrodieBr0]

@@ivanferguson2019 Love the classics, they're so easy to work on. I remember when K-mart sold the electronic ignition modules. haha If you kept a spare module and ballast resistor, you're safe to travel anywhere. Newer cars any one of 10000 sensors on them can fail at any time.

Love your video’s! I look forward to watching them everyday on my lunch break!
