I saw this truck in Liberty State Park, just outside Jersey City, N.J
0:04
This Dodge D200 pickup truck had a daily view of the Manhattan skyline, the Statue of Liberty
0:10
and the Jersey Central Railroad Terminal. The for sale sign said it is a 1967, but the grill suggests mid-1965 through 1966
0:20
Though the seller didn't provide a phone number, the sign said, V8, low mileage, $3,500 or
0:27
best offer. Note the standard rear window, not the optional full-width window
0:32
Also note the optional rear bumper, painted white, and the side trim, which I have seen
0:36
in 1965 publicity photos. The hot rodder in me noticed a manual shifter on the floor, but I don't know if it has the
0:43
standard 3-speed or an optional 4-speed. Being a 200 series truck, it likely has a 128 wheelbase, 3-quarter ton chassis, and
0:52
a 318 V8 engine. The exterior and interior are light green, probably original factory paint
1:00
I'd think it has aftermarket wheels and certainly an aftermarket passenger side mirror
1:04
The bottoms of the doors and surface of the rear bumper are rusty. The front bumper is dented, but all things considered, it looks like a complete truck
1:12
that has potential. I saw lap belts and jumper cables standing by on the passenger seat
1:17
The truck had New York plates, which makes sense considering the Holland Tunnel is just
1:21
around the corner. I don't know if it was driven daily, but the tyres were inflated so I'm guessing it
1:27
could be driven. Too bad I didn't need an eighth vehicle. It would have made a nice tow and show truck
