....Friday I was wandering aimlessly through Craigslist and saw an listing for a W200 for sale or trade...called and asked if the guy had any need for a 55 Dodge 2 wheel drive,, I had bought one a year or so ago for the dump bed on it,,, so I sent him a few pics and he says YA, I'll trade ya.....so I traded a 55 1/2 ton Dodge dually 2 wheel drive with dual rams under the flatbed for a 68 W200 4x4 440 AT PS PB new white spoke 8 lug rims and tires custom instrument cluster 8 ft stepside bed (wood needs replacing in bed) interior floors in very nice condition with a husky crossbox toolbox in the front of the bed, all glass is great no cracks or chips, 4 extra doors from 2 different trucks 1 extra hood and in the cab was also a B&M floor shift complete never opened, 3 extra instrument clusters, this truck starts with one small push of the gas pedal and runs like a swiss watch, has great oil pressure, and had tons of power. It has the enclosed front knuckle axle with Selectro lockout hubs, I drove it onto my car trailer and said Thank You Very Much and was gone......stopped at a gas station on the way home and talked to a man who said when he was younger he had one just like it and loved it....it got some good stares on the freeway coming up the hill to it's new home at the PowerWagon Farm.....One thing is is that it does not have a POWERWAGON hood on it, no holes for the side emblem, is that NORMal for a 4x4 "W" to not have that hood??....Anyway I was juiced with the trade....Also his cousin has a 2 wheel Swepty that has a burned up spindle on the front and he said I can have that truck free also if I come and get it.......quite an interesting Saturday to say the least.....OK OK I will post some pics of the W truck when I get it powerwashed just hang tight!!!!..............BNC |
