Description of 1977 Dodge Other Pickups D700 Extended Cab |
PLEASE CHECK OUT MY OTHER CAR AUCTIONSThe last Dodge trucks ever to be made that were bigger than a 1-Ton were in 1977 and here is a Very Rare and Special Opportunity for you to own what maybe the Coolest and most Unique Dodge Truck you're ever going to see!This Awesome 1977 Dodge D-700 Custom Race Car Hauler was Custom built and owned by the Legendary Stock Car Driver and Race Team Owner Cotton Owens! Cotton built this truck for his own personal use in 1987 starting with a 1977 D700 Cab and Chassis then extending the frame to a 240" wheelbase then installing a 1980 Club Cab section using the original D700 front clip. Cotton used the 413 engine and the 5-Speed transmission from his D800 Race Car Hauler to put in this truck and used a 2-Speed Hi-Lo Rearend. He also designed and built the 23'X8' Hauler bed and installed the twin 100 Gallon Aluminum gas tanks and the newer style 10-Lug 22. 5" Polished Aluminum Budd Wheels. Cotton used this truck often over many years before selling it to his buddy and fellow Winston Cup driver Neil Castles in 1996 who used the truck in his business transporting cars for the motion picture industry until selling it in 2010. I'm still trying to find out if Cotton originally sold this truck to his good friend Marty Robbins (The Country Singer / Part time Winston Cup Driver) before buying it back at some point and then later selling it Neil Castles. At least this is what Neil has told me. The Max GVW Rating for the truck is 25. 00lbs and so a CDL liscense is not required. The truck is in very good running and driving condition although it could use a set of new tires in the near future. My plans for what I wanted to use the truck for have changed since buying it and now is a Great Opportunity for someone to own this Very Special Truck that has a lot of Very Interesting History behind it! The Challenger Convertible on the truck is so you can have an idea on the size of the bed. There is more than enough room to haul a car as long as a Superbird and still have plenty of room left on the bed for hauling a golf cart / ATV. I might consider a trade towards a late model Dodge Pick-Up or Mopar Musclecars. No. the Challenger on the truck does not come with the truck. It is only on the truck for a reference to the size of the bed. If you have any questions about the truck please give Scott a call at (405) 203-4441 or email me at: pentastarcars@cox. netPlease don't bid on my truck unless you are serious about owning it and have the funds to pay for it when you win the auction. |
