Just purchased an original paint/condition 79 Macho. Starting to search for parts for the truck and have several questions I would appreciate some help with answers so I can search Pull a Part and see what I can find. Most all my questions really focus upon from what model years can I get GOOD original parts from? Example would be from 1976-1992. Here are some of the parts and body panels in which I am interested in finding out what year models of dodge trucks I can look for these specific parts. Fenders/bottoms for patch panels Door weatherstrips Tailgate Factory rear bumper (Not step bumper) Non-cracked glove box door Front 4wd driveshaft Outer door window wipes Spare tire hanger Bench seat or factory bucket seats A/C conversion parts to "Factory A/C" Passenger side bed side patch for over the right wheel well I am sure there are other parts however this is a good start. There are LOT's of similar body style trucks in the JY around here and "Pickin" good parts will be easy it's just a matter of knowing which parts exchange from what year. I am a Ford/Chevy guy but always liked the Macho trucks and their striking paint and decal designs so I bought one. My photos are too big attach here on the site so I have included 1 photo in a photobucket album below: http://s263.photobucket.com/user/mjs-13 ... Mar%202015 I look forward to participating and learning more about Dodge Trucks from this era. Mike Nashville Tn. |

Mike.... Most of the sheetmetal is the same from 1972-80. The 80 sheetmetal is galvanized from the factory, so a little better stuff. The interior stuff will be from 1975-79...and 1980 on some stuff. You can get patch panels from Sherman Parts, or Long Motor Company. There are a few members in the Nashville area... Keep us posted.. restored an 80 macho, and miss it. Have my citron green survivor macho for now... |

Thanks for the replies and updates. Always great to get parts from the JY when you find them so the interchange information is greatly appreciated. |
