A Horse With No Name

Off topic, but here she is.... Notice how clean the bed is on this thing.... And while we are at it, this thing has been following me all over Columbus...I think of you guys every time I see it..

Ouch....seems like a couple of years ago around here, you couldn't give pickups away. Now...I don't know what happened...but there is one hell of a shortage of decent trucks around here also. If your not plowing commercially, why not plow with the RPOS?

They have a long tradition of this...66-67 Charger from the rear is one of the best styling elements on any car, American or otherwise, ever...period....

This is a funny thread, I could almost tell you how everyone here was gonna vote. I mean, Camino ain't gonna pick the Probe now, is he?

Yes, I find the Dart to be one of the polarizing compact cars on the market (In the good way). Mostly its due to the little things Dodge did to the exterior, like the led lights, Charger-esq taillight, different front grills, I could go on. I agree...and Don't tell Dodgefan, but I am thinking really seriously of adding a Dart to the stable in the next year or two, as it seems like a really fine small car. Thought about test driving one today, in fact...

I'll post pics later, but thought of you today. Three quarter ton....81....31,000 original miles and clean chevy guy wanted like three and a half grand for....thought of you and camino both!

You've made me decide to stick with my Miata as well, which is nice since it's paid off....

Since I fix heating as well as AC and electrical, by all means, bring it on. Camino, I'd say get rid of the Tahoe ASAP, and if it comes down to it, I'd take a small personal loan, even though your opposed to doing so. Two grand for an extra nice plow truck (an additional two grand that is ) can be made up in a week or so of plowing..... My daughter (the older of the two you met in Philly) is getting ready to head off to college next year, she's going to be spending far more than two grand... Two grand is a minimal amount to borrow in terms of your livelihood and your ability to take care of yourself.

Glad to know that these trucks are still this affordable, as so much other stuff has shot up into the stratosphere.

Have a good birthday, guys. Dwight, I'll be thinking of you as I drive my pushrod powered Chevy truck into work this ayem.....

Hate to say this, but the answer for me is obvious. You guys know of my affinity for smaller roadsterish vehicles. I think a Viper would be a bit much, and I like the prowler so....yeah...the Prowler. Just wish that they had built it with a manual. Second choice would be a Mustang in the Cobra level o trim, third choice....would be the Viper, fourth choice would be the Firebird....

...and or those of us a little smaller who want a smaller, lighter car....Cuda would be the way to go. I'm liking the new Chryco more and more each day

It is a cool thread, but I couldn't look at it very long because everything was upside down. But seriously, a request...could we pump up the truck love around here a little bit...I am really enjoying it! Thanks for the link, Z!

You and I are thinkin' along the same lines, Dfelt....

A clean truck indeed...

Agree with Roger that this is overpriced... http://delaware.craigslist.org/cto/3215543330.html

Which is why I said rat rod or fair weather cruiser. Although for guys like GMCTG and I, it is easier sometimes to sweat it our one moulding or one trim piece at a time, than to go for a fully restored truck. In my case, I have a few body shops willing to do Electrical/HVAC work in trade for body work, so I could swap favors and cut deals on THAT end of it. Also, I'd be perfectly happy with the old 350/350 setup, as long as the truck looked mostly original.... But I am liking this project. The trucks of this era are growing on me...I previously really liked the 48-55 ERA of GM truck better...but I am seeing what Roger likes in these.... What would really help is some advice on buying a project...what are these trucks really worth as projects, and what are they really worth done....

I don't want to lease one, and 40K is more than I can spend...but I would like to own one...

Listening to some Buckethead and some Steve Vai....

Enjoy the race! Fullsize premium car is another matter, were I in another state of life, I could see owning a CTS or a 300...both really nice cars.

Full resto would bankrupt a small third world nation, but making it a decent rad rod or decent cruiser is doable. I like this truck, and actually this thing is making me think....

They really need to come out swinging with this...despite my critique of the interior, it seems like a great car. It's on my short list of cars to drive next time I am in the market for one...

A bit funny with my Chevy work truck...was buying fuel at the end of a long day, and as the pump clicked off, I turned around and looked behind me...my wife was fueling the MINI at the other side of the same pump. I've always kind of considered her my soul mate...but perhaps our cars are also. Chevy truck clicked off at $77.66, MINI Clicked off at $44.33.... And as for hard scaping...that's tough work....

Pretty Accurate, actually, the fusion is still the best of the bunch...however, the chances of my buying a midsize sedan are about the chances That Rick Perry will be the next democratic nominee for president....

I wish I was in a better position for a long term project, I would actually buy this myself. I have decided to cut my automotive bucket list to two vehicles, I would like to possibly still build a Factory Five Cobra, and I would really love a vintage truck. This pretty much takes the kit price of a Factory five and lops a zero off, making it muhc more do-able. NEAT project.... I am in a lot of lust over this one, actually.
