1970 Dodge Truck By Terry Bogusz
This Is My Mopar:
This is my truck purchased in Tempe AZ in Aug. '99. I drove it all they way home to Warren , Michigan with no break downs 2,216 miles. It is powered by a '78 225 super six (2bbl) and 727 automatic. It has a 3.55 gear and screemed all the way home at 65 to 70 mph. It was repainted in'87 by it's previous owner. I have purchased a D-440 to put in the box and make a street legal wheelstander. I worked for Dodge Truck Div. back in the late '60s and worked on the subframes for the wheelie trucks like: Little Red Wagon, The Teleflex Trick Truck, The Hemi Hauler, The Bardaall Bug, etc. These frames mounted the engine and trans and rear axle in one unit that hung from under the trucks.
