Tough call. He did supposedly make contact with seller before it was shipped.

but what about those small predatory lions that live amongst us??? Inquiring minds....

I never realized there were so many women on this site!

You'd think they would know better than to do laundry during a dust storm

I see it both ways. Nobody is purr-fect but after announcing he was back, weekend trip over, seller should have taken prompt action whichever way he saw fit.

These are the generation of Slant 6 225 engines and valve covers I am familiar with.

Had the 225 with the factory 2 barrel in my '78 D100 Short Box Truck, for the many many years that I owned it.

Had the 225 Slant 6, one barrel that originally came with the '76 D100.

Had the 225 Slant 6 one barrel with AC that originally came with my '74 Dart Swinger.

All had the same base 225 Slant 6 engine with matching blue valve covers.

Good Generation of Engines

I read that they was going to make a diesel based on the slant, but never made it off the drawing board. True?

Really nice article Dan! Thanks!

This post has opened my eyes to just how beautiful the slant sick engines are. I’m thinking of buying one and putting a chrome valve cover on it and mounting a 1/2 inch thick piece of lexan to it and making a coffee table out of it. Beautiful

 

[clementine]

Aplogies here, but which post explains why this won't fit an early engine? Height? Bolt pattern?

What's wrong with women on a car site?

Dodge trucks are so beautiful.

I'm researching the one I recently acquired.

74 d100 custom with tool boxes. Belonged to the city in its past life. I don't know if the tool boxes are factory or not, they are mounted with the same holes and hardware that the factory step side fenders would have been mounted with.
