1975 Dodge D5N Very Nice

 

It only seems like yesterday they couldn't give these away

Very nice but where is the market, you could use it for a work truck I guess, it would be interesting to see how quick it sells, it will do everything my F100 will do but for three times the price and no 4X4. there will be a dozen blokes out the that would like it but they have to get it pass the finical advisor.

I would imagine it would be a perfect truck for a regular show attendee. Not many people are going to buy a 50 year old vehicle as a working ute.

They are good looking, relatively fast, easy to drive. The Mrs is more likely to come along instead of climbing up into a big truck - she can even drive it. More importantly most of us here are getting to the age big trucks are getting harder to operate and maintain. With the Dodge you can still get in and out, drive safely keeping up with modern traffic and maybe change a tyre even if you are a fit 90.

It would make a good tradies Ute, plenty of tray space but might be a bit thirsty, all the modern work Utes have no room inside and no room outside, two 1200 long tool box's and there is no room for much else.

Here is a nice Barra conversion Dodge
