If you live in PA and see this truck it’s mine!

[Grit dog]

Actually used to be mine. Sold it to a dude in PA. Named Paul. Idk where he lives, never asked.
I’m sure he will have it running and out and about before long. He sent me a pic today.

Maybe I'll get lucky but I doubt it. Probably west of me.

I remember when you had it posted. I would love to have been able to scoop that jewel. WA is a world away from me unfortunately and I couldn't make it happen. But...what do you know, another owner from the Right Coast was able to snatch it up.

Ya I don’t remember, said he was an hour out of one of those cities that starts with a P, so could be E or W, idk.
Waiting for warmer weather in his open air storage there to fix it.
Said his daughter has claimed it for her first car when she’s old enough to drive! Gotta love it!

What’s amazing to me is how much it isn’t a jewel out here on the left coast.
I tried to sell it for what I paid for it, then less, for better part of a year. Had NO bites at $2500 out here.
Old Dodge pickups are nowhere near as popular as GMs and Fords

I was wondering which vehicle you were referring to... thought maybe the F.O.R.D.

Mopar stuff ain't common in these parts. I reckon that OR & WA must have a mfg facility close. Anyway, I found a Ramcharcher or Trailsuster while out doing DE. I'm going to inquire about it on my next route.

70'/80's? What kind of headlight setup and hood did it have? Plymouths usually have the quad headlight setup, Dodges the round eyes by themselves or with the vertical turn signals inboard. Then you got the standard hood or Power Wagon/Muscle hood.

I just saw the rear from the road. The top is setting half off the rear.

That’s cool! Them old Ramchargers are awesome. Had to be 70s then because Dodge went to fully fixed not removable in the 80s, correct?

Pittsburgh and Philadelphia are pretty darn far away from each other. So you just narrowed it down to either close to @89Suburban, or nowhere near him lol.

80 was the last year of the removable roof and the only year of that body style with part time 4WD as far as I know. 81 was the new body style.

Wuz it first year, it all came off except the windshield. Then 75-80 was full removable except used truck doors. Then 81 permanently attached?
That’s most of the reason I’d want an old Blazer/Jimmy/Bronco/Trailduster Ramcharger. To take the top off. Every Blazer I’ve owned was a rusted out pos used for plowing snow so the top never came off and if it did, the fenders and tailgate may have fell off too….

The one that I saw had a full removable roof but had window frames on the doors. The 69-75 K5 trucks don't have window frames. IDK about Dodge trucks. Maybe someone with more Mopar knowledge can chime in.

All the ones I ever dealt with had the door frames that stayed, but I was dealing with 76 plus vehicles. A quick search says that 74 was the only year to have partial window frames - I can't argue that.

81 up had no removable roof option. Much better electrical system, though.

No ammeter for one thing.
