Dwight has his '79 True Spirit truck at Mopar Nats last week, what a cool truck. Looking at his pictures, he has quite the collection of dodge pickups! Also ran into Jeff at the Nats too, what the heck!

Boy, you should've talked with the guy, he has some cool rigs, saw some pics like the Pick M up truck, dakota express, and some other oddball pickups. Pretty neat!

Good meeting you.

Saw Dwight there in the swap.

I thought the coolest truck there was a Black

Original owner 78 Warlock (D Code)

Ya, I BS's with the warlock guy too for a bit, those were some nice rigs too! And there was one LRE that was a mean sounding machine taking off from the NATS in the evening, we camped next too, and man that thing was quick and loud! Always a fun trip. Got a stainless pedal set for my stepside, Jeff found a factory tach, some LRE seats, and I found a nice roadrunner hood for my '74 satellite, some decent deals there I though.

OK, since you bragged,

I have to brag too.

The very first thing I picked up at the swap

was a little mopar box that said "tape set"

no Price, No description, just laying in a little pile O' stuff.

I couldn't believe the odds when I pulled it out expecting

pin stripes for a Le Baron.

It's the Tailgate Tape set for an 81 MACHO!!!



That's what keeps me going back.

That's freaking awesome! Ya, that place is kinda overwhealming to wade through everything, my bro Jeff and I literally spend the first two days browsing and still miss lots of stuff! One guy found a NOS tunnel hump for 70s 4x4 power wagon, 50$! Never saw that the whole show! That stripe kit is pretty cool!

This post is going everywhere, but I had to take a pic of this flyer with a '80 Macho in it, kinda neat too.

I'm gonna start a thread over in The Parts Counter with Nats stuff and some neat machines there..
