So earlier today I stumbled apond a 1974 Dodge D100, at some small local used car Dealership. It looks like it's been sitting for quite some time back of in the corner(tires are flat and showing signs of of major cracks in the side walls). It looks like all it's missing is a battery, and 3 spark plugs wires, has a straight body with very little rust on it. Motor looks like it has been swapped out to a 318 V8 that has seen some better days with oil leaks (I decoded the VIN and it says it came with a 360 V8). They have it stickered at $2,200 for it, but I bet I can talk them down since it looks like it's been sitting there for god knows how long. What would you guys think it would be worth? Or do you guys think I should pass on it?

really? on a mitsu board? Hey I put it in the off topic section since it's not related to Mitsubishi Lol. Although I've had thoughts of seeing if I could pull the motor outta that old dodge and seeing if it would fit my MS.

Well update on it, I decided not to buy it after I threw it up on a lift to get a better look at the undercarriage, and I can almost guarantee that it was a northern vehicle, a whole lot of rust underneath and there was even a spot on the driver front side of the frame that the rust had completely eaten through. So with that pretty much out of the question I will be continuing my search!
