1978 green Dodge D200

Here is a few pics and specs of the 78 dodge d200 that I had up to a few weeks back. I had to get rid of it as we needed the space .




1978 Dodge D200
318 V8
727 tranny
full floating Dana 60, 4.10 gears, locked
Weiand intake
Holley carb
hooker headers and exhaust

Thankfully I was able to part out most of it so it didn't go to waste.

Actually, the floors were in pretty bad shape along with the underside of the cab and the fenders on teh bed and the pasenger side front fender, passenger side door and passenger side of the cab had been dragged a long something. It was in pretty bad shape that was not fixed right by the PO.

I do hope to get it back, or another one when/if Heather and I get a house with more land and a larger garage for me to live in.

Heated or not, I don't care. I've done plenty of motor swaps and tranny swaps in the freezing cold of single digits. I will install a heater though as it is nice to have warmth when getting off the cold ground.

Warm wrenches in the winter time? Hell, when I heat up my garage my tools have a nice coating of condinsation on them and are far from warm.

I had so many people interested in parts from it but nobody interested in the whole truck.

I actually got those valve covers cheap on craigslist. Still in the box, unopened for $20 with the matching air cleaner. Hahaha.
