Photographs of my 72 D200 when it was new

This is the D200 my grandfather special ordered in 72. Those are my cousins playing around the truck. I was not even thought of when these photographs were taken. I plan to bring this truck back to its original appearance.

that was a work horse back then. does it have the 318 in it? if so that is a great motor. better than how they are made today. good luck on the project. do you have up to date pic's how she looks now?

It does have a 318 with under 75,000 miles on it. The truck is in great shape. It alos has a rae option combination. The truck is in storage in Florida right now. When I et home from Iraq I will begin the restoration. It really does not need much. I wish I could locate an old camper like the one in the photographs.

wow, makes me miss my '83 D150.... I loved that truck too. Best 300 bucks I ever spent

what is even better, is that you still have it after all these years.....

And that is how it will stay. It is in great shape, it has been kept indoors its whole life.

A friend of my had a Ram Charger with a 318 that motor had over 200,000 miles and it ran like brand new and didn't use any oil.
