Description of 1978 Dodge Power Wagon Adventurer

For sale is my 1978 dodge w200 project. It's a great truck that needs lots of tlc. I've done a lot already, but just don't have the time....Frame is straight, body has bondo to the driver's side front fender and around the passenger side wheel well. There is no rust visible, unless it is under the wheel well bondo. There is no rust inside the wheel well, however, so I doubt it.All of the wiring has been completely redone, all lights work and lenses are intact.Replaced sending unit, radiator, starter. Instrument panel was custom made with new gauges, but the original panel and gauge cluster will accompany the truck if the buyer wants them.The engine starts with no hesitation and runs, the transmission needs to be rebuilt. The truck has a carter thermoquad carburetor that needs expert tweaking. I don't have that kind of skill. The brakes need to be gone over, belts replaced, a/c needs completely refurbished. Fan motor works, but I do not know the status of the heater coil. Driver's door locking mechanism needs work, door is very difficult to open! Mileage is a big questionmark. Odometer only has 5 digits and read 65xxx when we removed it... i'm guessing 165xxx, but we'll never know for sure. The front tires will hold air for about a week, so they'll work for transport.This is a Project truck and is sold as is, buyer is responsible for shipping!
