first of all i bought this truck out of a junk yard, who had just brought it in on the rollback,,, i asked where did it come from and the answer was..... deep in the woods. lol ... im not a traditional "mopar" guy.. so i dont know much about it... from what ive seen from the pictures and info on here it shows to be a macho... i have no title but the door says its a 76? but it looks like all the '77s i see.... I love this truck .. i poured some gas in the carb put a few gallons in the tank,, it fired right up.. wow right. only thing that i can see thats not factory is the seat... I am going to restore it.....here is the problem its not like chevy and ford .... cant find parts. so here are some questions for all you die hard guys..

1. what seat should be in this truck bench or bucket?
2. is it full time 4x4?
3. should it be a 2 barrel carb?
4. where can i find the new tail gate decal and side decals at?
5. what is it worth ( i really dont care but would be nice to know)
6. where can i get new or nos parts for this beast??

thanks

Most came with buckets although some of the late macho powerwagon came with bench seats. Macho powerwagons were full time up untill 80. Pheniox graphics sells the decals just make sure your specific when you order your tailgate decal and let them know want body color to show through the power wagon part of it. Dodge connection all sell the same decals, I think they may even be alittle cheaper but compare shipping prices between the two. I've had machos with two barrel carbs and four barrel.

First off welcome to the boards! 8-)

Macho rarity usually depends on the options,color,motor an tranny combo.Some colors are very rare to find.The shortbeds are more common than the longbeds are.The 81' Machos are the most rare of the Machos especially the Ramchargers and Traildusters.There's been a few of the 81' Macho trucks pop up that members here own.The 2nd rarest probably are the 80'Machos.I don't know of any production numbers out there on the Machos. :?:

What color is your Macho?
