Guest BlueZ28 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 I have been unable to really find a place to ask about this and I don't know much about it since I'm a Chevy guy.My dad recently bought a farm for deer hunting in Bolivar, MO and there is a 1957 Dodge D100 sitting by the house. Through some research I found out that this specific body style was only done for one year(I think).Since it could be rare I would rather send it to a good home than part it out and send the rest to a junkyard. I have been offered some rather absurd numbers for specific parts, just doesn't seem right to part out what I think is a near complete classic truck.Hopefully you guys can point me to anyone who either specializes in these trucks or someone who would want to buy it.Here is the link to some pictures.http://imgur.com/a/vreBHThanks for your time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_S_in_Penna Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I don't know the specifics of the Dodge trucks, but I canrecommend some places to sell it. Since it's a buyer's marketfor many vehicles, put a fair and reasonable price on it, andtry one or more of these venues. You may already knowabout them.www.hemmings.com is the website of the foremost hobbymagazine, Hemmings Motor News. They are based in Vermont,and every month their magazine has hundreds of pages ofclassified ads of vehicles for sale.Other sites such as www.autotraderclassics or www.cars-on-line.comare also useful. However, Hemmings should suffice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BlueZ28 Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Thanks for the reply. We ended up getting hooked up with a local Dodge club and one of the members was beyond happy to be able to purchase it. In hindsight we probably let it go for to cheap but knowing he is going to restore it and get it back on the road is good enough for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Mellor NJ Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 While your truck isn't particularly rare (the sweptside is the one with the station wagon fenders, that's very rare and expensive), it's a good start for somebody and I'm glad you were willing to let it go without having visions of grandeur about pricing. Here are 3 trucks in good condition with the Sweptside asking $45K http://cars.oodle.com/1957-dodge/for-sale/trucks/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
