My families newest edition: Dodge A100
Well as of today we are buying this truck its $500. The guy has had th truck for 3 years, and the body has had work done to it so theres not much rust at all really. he has most of the parts for it also. It runs but needs a tune up. so the guy says, it was running last year. its a 1969 dodge A100 pick up with primer on it.(pink primer :() so once we get it home we are going to primer it grey and go from there. so heres the only pictures i have right now. Also to me this is another rare steal for us just like the 1941 dodge WD-21 is.

espescially when they're as badassed as this one. hell,i budget my projects money pretty well but if someone offered me an A-100 for $500,somethings would either be sold or others would have to wait......that right there is a once in a lifetime deal. if someone slaps a nice juicy steak infront of ya,you don't say "no thanks,i've got a pile of potatoes right here".:bigwink: i've been through just about every yard(and hoarders) from NC to northern FLA to the east side of GA and i havnt seen an A-100. all i can say is.......i'm jelouse word to the wise though,unless you know the person that did the bodywork and can trust them to do a good job,have the body sounded. it might look decent but i've had a couple occasions where we started blocking for paint and the shoddy bodywork(bondo) fell off to reveal a good bit of cancerous lesions. to have someone else do it is reletively cheap for piece of mind. if you know how to do it then it only takes about a half an hour of tapping and rapping. |

Junky but enjoy the practice man. Just remember, you still gotta get a mini-Z lol.
|
Wow.... this sure will be impressive once done but man you have a way to go :) glad to see it slowly come together though....
|
Thanks what you see right now, is us not even started on it, lol. we just bought it and put it in the back yard last night. we started to examine the truck today, not going to worry about the body too much for now. worry about that once we get it running, if we get it running before january and theres not alota snow on the ground, i might be able to use it for my drivers test.
