For sale: 1972 Dodge D200 Custom Camper Special big block factory A/C survivor. This truck was purchased new by a wealthy rancher and equipped with an aluminum pop-up Alaskan camper, and used only sparingly as a vacation truck. It was well-maintained and stored inside a Quonset hut. Truck has a few very cool “day 2” upgrades- a period spotlight, tachometer, and vintage Bostrom Viking air-ride bucket seats. Later, a few performance upgrades were made to the big block 400 and 727 trans, including an aluminum intake, Edelbrock carb and transmission shift kit. The original rancher sold to a local retired man and his wife, who also used it primarily for camping trips until I purchased it, becoming the third owner. (I do not have the Alaskan Camper) He stated 47k miles is original, and signed title as such. Condition of truck is certainly commensurate with that mileage - this is one truck that actually looks as good in person as in the pics. Still has the original jack, handle, and lug wrench. I’ll do my best to describe this unique and special truck below, please see the Photobucket album and YouTube walk around video links at the bottom of the description.
Exterior: Truck was repainted in the original color, it's a quality job, still shines well and truck looks great from just about any angle. A few small chips and scratches, one long scratch on passenger box side. Small spot of clear peeled on the end of one box corner. Very dry truck owing to the fair weather summertime use – never seen salt. I’ve owned many of this era Dodge truck and this truck is by far the cleanest I’ve ever seen. Other than surface rust at bottom of one fender, and on a couple spots where paint chipped, it’s beautiful – I’d say 99.9 percent rust free. See underside pics in linked Photobucket album, very clean underneath, floors, body mounts, etc all look great. Frame is clean with part numbers still visible. Factory tinted glass in good condition. Original grille very nice, front bumper has been replaced. I pulled the bedliner out and there's no rust in box, but there are a few holes from camper mounting in the bed floor, and a few smaller holes in the bed rails. Also mirrors were changed to low mount style, I don't have the original camper mirrors. Nice looking truck that will draw a crowd at the gas station, Home Depot, or Cars N Coffee.
Interior: Original and very good condition – dash pad is mint, original floor mat very good. Vintage Bostrom “Viking” air ride seats in working order, individually adjustable and much more comfortable than the 90 degree bench seats these came with from the factory. A small area behind each seat in the floor was cut and boxed, but original seat mounting holes were not modified that I can see, a factory seat could be re-installed. (I don’t have original seat, but I could find a correct seat locally if desired). Everything works as far as I can tell – lights, all gauges, horn, wipers, heater, etc. Radio works but has ignition static, so resistor plugs or wires are needed. A/C system is complete and blows but not ice cold. Super clean truck that even the wife won't mind riding in.
Mechanical: Starts, runs, and drives out well. No noises, smoke, or major leaks. Auxiliary fuel tank is disconnected and it’s running off the main tank only. 400 engine pulls strong and sounds good with throaty dual exhaust. 727 trans shifts very firm with performance shift kit. Drives, rides and handles surprisingly well for a Camper Special. Brakes work well. Heater control valve needs to be replaced as occasionally it will leak a few drips of coolant. A/C system is complete and blows, but not ice cold. Tires are very good with great tread and no weather cracks. Just a solid old truck that will get you there and back. These era Dodge trucks are anvil-tough and pretty much indestructible, however old trucks do need work from time to time, so if you haven’t messed with vintage vehicles, adjust your expectations accordingly.
Pricing/Misc: Great tow rig for your Charger Cuda GTX Roadrunner Coronet R/T Hemi Six Pack This truck is NO RESERVE and will sell. It runs and drives fine,but flying in and driving it home probably isn’t advisable, as Montana is a huge state with many remote areas that don't have cell service or roadside assistance. Reasonable transport is available, I will drive truck to meet your transporter and help load it. Title is clear and in my name, buyer will need to get insurance upon purchase as I will cancel mine. Truck can stay here for 30 days, after that $100/month storage will be due.
