we have always had this old beat up dodge truck in the yard and as the story goes it was bought by my grandpa back in the 60's from a guy who had used it for a few years. anyway one day a few years ago there was an add in the paper for a dodge power wagon for 300 bucks. so i we went to look at it, and it turned out to be an old weapons carrier that the guy cut the box off and had made a command car body for it from scratch. anyway the truck was sitting on chevy axles and didnt have an engine. so on the way home i figured that it wasnt worth 300 without the engine and correct axles. so when i got home i went to look at the truck that was sitting in the yard and figured that i could fix it up instead because it was all there, engine, axles, every thing. and so ever since that moment i have fallen in love with the old dodge trucks and dodge power wagons.
