How to Buy a Classic Dodge Truck

Dodge built some of the best trucks of the 50s and 60s. However, they were not as popular as Chevy and Ford trucks, and today they are quite rare.

Instructions

1

Look for a pre-1961 Dodge truck for a tough, simple work truck with distinctive styling.

2

Consider a 1961 to 1971 Sweptline truck for the classic Dodge truck. These trucks are sill quite plentiful today. Most came equipped with the hardy 318 V-8.

3

Look for the 'Dude' option package found on 1970-71 trucks. This option consists of bold graphics and paint.

4

Consider a Power Wagon for the ultimate 4x4 truck. Dodge started selling these trucks (model WM-300) shortly after World War II, and continued to sell these tough military-derived trucks until 1968.
