Message:		Just took delivery on a P.O.S. Dodge pickup. I asked about the bed in another thread when I bought it on Ebay a couple of weeks ago. I will find out the VIN number tonight. Here goes a few questions if any one would like to help me out. 1. What is the deal with the pushbutton trans and clutch? Do you clutch it when you start it? Are they reliable or junk? 2. There is a something called an electric magneto that looks like a coil with a heat sink? Is this original? 3. What kind of rear-end is in these trucks? It has a slant 6 and the pushbutton. Are they Posi's or one legged wonders. 4. Are the wheel cylinders and brake shoes easy to find and cheap? 5. I need two head lights and one blinker. Where can I find them? 6. Does anyone make rubber window channel for the windshield and rear glass? I am just getting started so I appreciate the help. Thanks again for a great site. I will post pics soon.
