Customers Dodge truck
As a lot of you know I closed my shop to the public a few years back when I went to work on the local Fort. I’ve been building my own stuff and enjoying the heck out of it. When the contractor who will be putting up my new shop saw the 76 Dodge truck I built a year ago he asked if I could finish up the 78 he’d been working on and off on for the last 15 years or so. I took it on and got it back to him a couple of weeks ago.
The truck had been thru several local shops for various work as time and money permitted and a lot of little stuff had been lost along the way (gas tank straps, bed hardware tail lights and brackets etc etc) and not all of the work was done the way I would have.
I had a bunch of mechanical and wiring to do along with install the bed, doing the interior, detailing and tuning the engine, exhaust, AC etc.

The engine is a pretty nasty 360 with an 833 passenger car 4 speed and 3.55 gears. All in all it turned out to be a pretty neat truck.

Nice job Mike. I hope mine looks half as good when done! As the wife says, nothing does red like a truck! (I'd throw in Ferrari too:D)
I like the eye hooks for hold downs, making it a working truck, and the cable stays.

Looking good! I hope the interior of my 72 looks like that when I'm done! **)

Good looking truck, Mike. I see a 70's Mopar truck specialty shop in the works. You could be the Dodge truck streetrod guru!
