NIIICE TO SEE YOU OUT & ABOUT MR. MAGS

[@davidp2888]

I always come away learning something from Steve. What a wealth of knowledge.

[@xfactorautomotive1496]

Love watching Steve's videos! I'm not really a Dodge guy, but I watch and find it interesting anyway. Steve helps me to increase my knowledge of vehicles and venture into areas I would not normally explore, and I'm loving every minute of it! Thanks Steve!

[@delhooters245]

Keep them coming!

[@briane.5656]

Love the sweptlines -- drove a '67 D100 long bed in high school, slant six and three-on-the-tree. My dad paid $400 for it, was a former rural mail delivery truck. Had big orange blinky lights on the roof and a spotlight, rusted out floor, and went through oil like nobody's business. Also would not go over 70mph, no matter how long I had it floored, so probably good move on dad's part. :-)

[@googleusergp]

The regularity of your videos is refreshing again as it shows that you're getting closer to going back into the junkyard again. As stated last time: No VIN, can't win, but some can be figured out, no doubt: 1961 Dodge Truck: 11 for D-100, 6 for six cylinder equipped or 8 for 8 cylinder equipped, 1 or 2 for Warren Truck, Warren, MI assembly or 6 for Windsor Ontario Canada or 7 for Missouri Truck assembly and the rest is the production sequence starting with 10000 for 1961. Warren Truck opened in 1938 and still operates today under Stellantis and was known as "Dodge City". Windsor, Ontario Canada also still operates under Stellantis and opened in 1928 and has been the primary minivan plant for a number of years. Missouri Truck was part of the St. Louis, MO assembly plant complex (actually Fenton, MO) and opened in 1959 and closed in 2009. Possible code DT3116 Toreador Red and DT1280 Sand Dune White. 1960 Dodge Truck: 0 for 1960 model year, (or sometimes "P"), 6 for six cylinder equipped or 8 for eight cylinder equipped, D for 2WD or W for 4WD, 1 for 1/2 ton rated, L for Light Duty and the rest is the production sequence. There was a serial number and a "Parts Availability Number" used on the earlier trucks, but the serial number was what most titles and registrations would have had. 1960 appears to have the same paint codes if those were the original colors of the truck. Trucks back then were very functional, but I believe that they were quite striking and stylish, both back then and even today. For years trucks were often ignored, and today as you noted they are quite hot in the market. As someone else pointed out, that might be a 1962 and up truck as the grille is different than the 1961 model. 1962 and up VINs follow the 1961 style, but the production sequence started at 16000 and up to 23000 which started the 1963 model sequences.

[@charlesdalton985]

Good to see your handle as well sir ~ Chuck

[@googleusergp]

@@charlesdalton985 Nice of you to say. Let's hope Mr. Magnante returns soon.

[@jaysmith179]

Sad Dodge is going Woke and not making the Hemi anymore. RIP Dodge. I agree. I also miss Steve. So glad he will be back soon.

[@wizard5637]

Love the truck vids Steve. Hope to see you back in the yard in the springtime!

[@fhwolthuis]

Great history lesson again, Steve ❤

[@MoparDen]

Enjoying Truck week, Steve! Glad you have these to share as you continue on your trek to a full health recovery! Continued prayers and support!

[@chilee6994]

Beyond knowledge.. you're an icon in the automotive industry.. hands down , cheers from Vietnam..

[@landonproductions2373]

Do they have any trucks like this in Vietnam? I believe I heard they exported them

[@dennisklauck7940]

Lock jaw is a good doggy. Good job Steve...

[@claiborneeastjr4129]

Very informative. I watch junkyard gold often, with Steve. He is a walking encyclopedia of automotive knowledge. All brands, all cars, all trucks, all models , all options.

[@777dolf1]

When watching one of Steve's videos be sure to bring PEN & NOTEBOOK!!!

[@dlansburg2673]

Love that 60,I had forgot that style

[@plumcrazy_trackpak2545]

Thanks Steve! I have a 71' W600 and I love the sweptline Dodge power wagons! Thanks for the history!

[@haroldbirge6881]

🏆Steve 🏆 you rock 🍀welcome back 😎✌️

[@jeffclark2725]

Agreed, on the classroom story,thumbs up great adventure video

[@SabotageGarageUSA]

I am glad I am getting the chance to revisit these videos.

[@Funsho97]

Ya may want to check the data plate on the one to the left, more like a 62, 63, or 64 model. The 1961 D100 had a flat mesh type of grill and didn't have a grill like this one until 1962. These were also known as four-eyes.

[@larryzielinski7067]

I said the same thing. That 61 grill is worth more than the truck if it was a 61. I have a 62 myself and would love to put a 61 grill in it because it was so rare.

[@quickdHemi]

Well Steve, we met in Grand Forks, And a number of years ago. I can tell you that there is Plenty of room under the hood of a 1960 for a big block. I've had a few 440's, a 528 Hemi and currently a 605 Hemi in my 1960. Its the most fun a person can have and still keep your cloths on!

[@DragonsFireMetalWorx]

always had the inclination to merge an old school 60's body with an updated chassis...gotta find that winning scratch ticket first though lol

[@jimpatnode4445]

When Uncle Tony pointed out your health issue you had around 130k subs, now look 137k. Rally round Steve. Working the algorithm.

[@jonathangehman4005]

Not only did the 1960 cab and front clip design live on with the Dodge Town Panel, but the '60 Sweptside bed lived on as the bed on the Studebaker Champ compact pickup. Studebaker used the Dodge tooling as a cost saving measure when gearing up for the new Champ which used a cab based on the front of the 4dr Studebaker Lark. They didn't match up very well aesthetically, but as a Mopar guy, I dig that my '61 shortbox "Wrongbed" Champ has some obvious MOPAR DNA.

[@chucktaylor2772]

This one sparks joy......

[@davidhalloran2764]

Great video and looking forward to more! So fun to see the origin story of Lockjaw.

[@farmcentralohio]

I watched some of the auction in Scottsdale, it's just not the same without Steve. I'd rather be here watching truck week.

[@georgechambless2719]

One of my first car memories is of those 'six-eyed' trucks. 😄

[@wilkersonsmowershop8379]

Would love to see an episode of the f250 highboy Steve. It would be nice to get your take on them.

[@jerrydemain2346]

Glad to see your back SIR !!!

[@Motorhead-y3]

I had a couple 63s ....Love the Sweptline.

[@donnakennedy-fleming2864]

Steve, back in 1978, my brother bought a used 65' Dodge Town Wagon like the one pictured at time 3:24. It was blue in color and came off the U.S. Air Force base that was established here in Newfoundland during the Second World War. It was a 4-wheel drive with 17" split rims..............a 225 cubic inch six cylinder and 4-speed. It had 4.88:1 gears. It was a stump puller! I was always confused about the Dodge trucks in the 60's because I remember his was a 65' model..............yet other 65' models had the flat hood! Thanks for clearing this up!

[@daviddamico4288]

Love the old trucks

[@peterantonopoulos2572]

Hey Steve, it's such a good feeling to get my daily notice for a Steve mag video back again. Can't wait for the newbies.Get strong buddy, we'll be here:)

Enjoy the content. Get better soon we need more of your videos.

[@wleonard1986]

Glad to see you back I miss you

[@galeng73]

You nailed it. Not only did I have a Dart, I was indeed a stoner.

[@goratgo1970]

Back when I was a stoner, too young to drive, but neighbor would come by in his black 70 Cuda, and with encouragement do a smoky burnout for us..

[@galeng73]

@@goratgo1970 Alas, my Dart was pretty nutless. It was just the 6 cyl model, but it did come with an 8 track player. Man, that was a lot of years ago. Also, I'm pretty old.

Good to see ya doing better! Barrett-Jackson isn't the same without your knowledge, an vin number decoding, etc!

Morning Steve Good to see you up and around get well soon professor

Shame we didn’t bump into each other in Stirling when you went to uni, I could have shown you our junkyards, and the model kit shop, glad you are getting stronger, as always look forward to being educated buddy.

Another great truck episode Steve!👍

[@dwhallon21]

Love the old dodge trucks.... love steves enthusiasm about the subjects in the kunkyard

[@denjhill]

If memory serves me I remember these trucks selling new for less than $2000.

[@arthurmccarron4379]

Love. The grill

[@chrisretired5379]

Awesome video, thank you sir 👍 I once had a 61 W500, 4 wheel drive with the poly 318. It was a 3/4 yard dump, I removed that, scooted up the Rockwell rear end 2 ft. and put an ex military ammo trailer on it. Changed to 12.00-20 tires. That truck was unstoppable

[@Ecosse57]

one of my old 60s magazines features the early 60s dodge converted to dragger with i think a max wedge mill. wicked.

[@walterconn5637]

Interesting, I wish we had more old trucks on the road today

[@gulfy09]

Today's trucks will never end up in a scrap yard..

[@scottfreeman3748]

Are you getting better Steve always learn a lot from your show 😊

[@luliluli1471]

I noticed Lock Jaw from the other video about some GM trucks Steve. Love it.😊

[@Aaron-be2pt]

We're all pulling for Steve, but he's already rounded 3rd, he's going to be just fine. I bet a day with Steve in the junkyard would be absolutely amazing, except when you're trying to finally leave for the day he just won't stop pulling you aside to teach you something new. That said, I'd still love to "win a day with Steve" some time! Love the content!

[@stephaneracicot791]

i remember seeing these trucks around the old belt saw mill,,,,the mill was ran by a 360 out of an old Monaco station wagon..my dad pressed the paper pulley on the pinion of the automatic transmission was around 16 inches wide.that was in 1985...it had plenty power

[@anibalbabilonia1867]

Man Steve, we all hope you’re doing well! We hope to see you back in the junkyard crawl soon in the near future.🙏❤️‍🩹

Hope you're improving Steve! I think the father on Timmy and Lassie had a '58 or '59 Dodge pickup. It was a one ton indicated by the heavy duty wheels.

First Steve man it is great to see you again. I sincerely hope all is well with you. I had a '70 Dodge D100 pretty much same as that '61, except my box. Thing I thought was strange buut came in handy the hood goes straight up. You can pull the engine without taking off the 500 pound hood.

[@pb5778]

Thanks for sharing this interesting

[@Ramcharger85]

Almost bought a 63 years ago. It had a push button automatic and a slant 6. My dad thought he was asking to much considing the condition she was in. So we passed on. ❤

[@sombra6153]

There may be something to that Dart “high school stoner car” thing. Back in the 70s, my dad was a cop working undercover narcotics. For a while, his undercover vehicle was an old compact Dart, slant six, auto with several yards of beer can pull tabs (remember those?) made into a chain hanging off the rear view mirror.

[@DOLPHINATOR9778]

That DOG goes everywhere 😂😂😂

[@ricksaint2000]

thank you Steve

[@jamesblair9614]

Trucks have been my everyday transportation since 1990, plus my company ride was also a truck. It’s not that I’m really into them, but cars went in a direction that either didn’t work for me or just left me old. Up till then, it had been mostly A bodies, B bodies and one Y body. I never would have guessed I’d spend the greater part of my life driving pickups!

GM did a similar thing when the new 1988 pick up trucks came out, but the Suburban and Chevrolet / GMC cab and chassis were in such high demand General Motors couldn't afford to shut down those vehicle lines to retool for the new body style.
