Photo of the Day: What Year is this Dodge Truck?

photo 4 (6)
This Dodge Truck grabbed my attention for two reasons: One – it is awesome to see an old Dodge Truck being used as it was intended. Two – the wheels were absolutely the wrong choice for this rig. Seriously.

The Dodge Truck went through many changes in styling in the 1960s (there’s a hint…) and each iteration was extremely different from the model it replaced. I believe this model came with either a slant-six or a 318-cid engine with a three-speed (on-the-tree) transmission. It looks like the owner opted to pipe the exhaust underneath the driver’s side of the Dodge Truck.

I’m not too sure about the color either. It looks like an original color – but a bit too beige for me.

What do you guys think? What year is this Dodge Truck?

There is no prize – but I will forward the correct answer on to Reid Bigland, CEO and president of Ram for recognition.

No… no I won’t. Sorry.

Speaking of Ram trucks…
