I bought this truck in Febuary of 2013 with the intention of turning it into a Pro Street. Looks like I will never get to it with the other things I have going on.
Was told by previous owner that the engine was a recent rebuild with less than 500 miles.( original 225 with 410 gears) I drove it home 2 hours and it ran terrible. Distributer was out 1 tooth, valves were all over the place, vacume advance was bad, carb was out of adjustment (new carb) and vacume leaks galore. Fixed all that and now she purrs. Runs and drives but inspection expired last month and I havent had it inspected.
It is an ameteur single stage paint job that looks great from 20 feet but it has small scuffs here and there when you study it. There are 3-4 places that bubbling has started. I have not passed a magnet over it to see if has bondo but I would think that it would have to for a truck this old. It needs some small things at the dash if you want to restore it. Oil pressure light, instrument cluster light, that sort of stuff. Wipers are slow but work. All headlights, break lights etc work. Heater works. The glass is not cracked but the drivers window only rolls half way down. All of the exterior trim is there but some has been painted like the bumpers and the rest needs a good polishing.Passenger door handle needs to be taken apart and corrected. The button does not line up by itself and you have to align it with the whole in the handle to open it.
Shifter on Dash between steering wheel and radio cut out. Pretty Cool.
Thats really all I know about it.
This is pretty solid truck for an unrestored 1968. These things are hard to find. This is not a show truck, But it is a solid old dodge pickup.This would be great to start with for a street rod oran excellant candidate for restoration. Any questions will be answered to the best of my ability.

Chrysler readying Hellcat V8 with Viper-like power
Tue, 21 May 2013A monstrous supercharged V8 engine could be in store for Chrysler and SRT products, if recent rumors are to be believed. Allpar is reporting that the forced-induction V8 - Chrysler's first, if this goes down - could make its debut this summer.
The story goes that the Hellcat would be based on a 6.2-liter Hemi engine, rather than on the existing 5.7- or 6.4-liter versions of the company's vaunted mill. In any case, the general consensus is that the motor will have gobs of power. Modest estimates call for between 500 to 570 horsepower, with some outliers predicting a figure as high as 600 hp. That figure would put the output would place the Hellcat awfully close to that of the 640-hp V10 in the SRT Viper, too. Allpar contends that a slightly lower powered version would allow Chrysler to keep costs below that of the more powerful Ford Shelby GT500, which might be a sweet spot.
The Hellcat could debut in a number of SRT products. SRT versions of the Charger, Challenger and 300 are all up for grabs, as is the rumored SRT Barracuda.
2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat revealed [UPDATE]
Wed, 13 Aug 2014Almost immediately after we drove the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, we began wondering: what's next? Pumping 707 horsepower into the Challenger seemed so crazy - and so intoxicating - we just assumed that Dodge would try that trick again.
Rumors swirled about a Charger Hellcat. Frankly it makes even more sense than the Challenger version. The Charger is a bigger car, and Dodge has never been shy about dropping monster engines under its hood. Hell (cat), we've seen Charger mules running around town that appeared to be the super sedan.
And finally, it's here. The 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat was revealed today at a preview event near Detroit, and it will be a centerpiece of the Chrysler display this weekend at the Woodward Dream Cruise.
eGarage interviews a couple with 65 Vipers
Thu, 12 Sep 2013Owning multiple vehicles can be a hassle worth enjoying if you're willing to spend the time and the money required to acquire and maintain them. But when it's hard to make ends meet while underused valuable hunks of metal, plastic and rubber sit happily taking up garage space, journeys into the depths of other people's well-developed automotive obsessions will either bring you and your cars closer together, or compel you to sell them off before you become one of those fanatics. A recent video by eGarage is one of those journeys, and it's not for the faint of heart: D'Ann and Wayne Rauh own 65 Dodge and SRT Vipers in a collection of automobiles that exceeds 100.
We're not sure if the couple has developed heat-resistant calves from stepping over Viper door sills made burning-hot by side-exhaust pipes, but we wouldn't be surprised if they did. We did learn that their obsession with the no-holds-barred sports car started in 2006 with a trip to a dealership to buy just one Viper, which goes to show how innocently car obsessions can start. But the Rauhs seem to be doing just fine - perhaps better - 64 more Vipers later.
Watch the video below for the full story and to see what eGarage claims is the world's largest Viper collection.
