Little Dodge 453

What do you think the Dodge is saying to the big boys,maybe talking about the good olds days and Pretty Sally : : :

The big boys might be saying that your all noise

Very cool line up there!

I don't think the Dodge looks out of place.

I know it would be the first truck I would have walked up to for a look.

Great photo's

Hi real nice old dodge i wonder how the little 453 GM preformed pulling that trailer loaded what hp are they
I'am thiking about putting a 453GM 6speed in my 1977 F350 cheers john

Of course, little Dodge may be first out in front from a standing start off the "go line".

The little Dodge pulled the trailer there with 20 tonne on it then someone put another 10 tonne in it, now they are trying to get the air bags up enough to unhook it and to get legs down so its high enough to get a A trailer under it , the B trailer

hi there! nice trucks! where have you taken these photos? it seems that these trucks are for big guys also haha. I wish I could have this for my father's small farm. I've been stylin truck and other suvs way back before

Uncle Penny,
Welcome to the forum ,these trucks are in southern N.S.W 300 Kms north of Melbourne and belong to Kelvin Baxter Transport ,the little Dodge operated out of Finley from when it was new to the 1990s .Kelven saw it in a shed in 2000 and after some negotions he brought it and all he has done to it is to repaint the name on the door and a polish.Looks good.
