  • 1968 power wagon cab.

    Hey guys. New to the site. Just bought my first power wagon. It's a 1968 w300. The cab is pretty well shot. The previous owner cut the entire back off the cab and attempted to lengthen it , did not go very well.

    I was wonder what year trucks are the same body style as mine. I've found a 1969 w300.. The guy called it a swept line.


    Any info would be great. Thanks.

    Congratulations and welcome to the fun!

    Your W300 is a Sweptline Body Truck, and any year between 1961 and 1971 will work. Items like Doors changed (handles), and some dash differences but the same wonderful Series of Dodge Trucks.
    I drive a DODGE, not a ram!

    Thanks,
    Will

        The '67 & '68 Crew Cabs would be best to use, as Dodge went to
        mechanical clutches in '69, which changed the pedals, etc.. The
        '66 & earlier cabs could be considered, but they came with the
        early refrigerator handle doors with different latches/strikers. You
        could look at a 200 series cab, but would have to re-do the floor
        around the drive line tunnel.
