I just acquired a 1979 Dodge Power Wagon 200. I got it for $600! Anyways, it runs and drives. What are your thoughts on it? The floor boards are good, surprising! It has a 318 and 4 speed. Also, any tips on how to remove the windshield, a tree branch fell through it and destroyed the dash pretty good. And where also can I get replacement parts for the dash? like the entire thing I'm pretty sure is gonna have to be replaced. But I am going to see what I can salvage and start from there.

I have checked out LMC and got the windshield stuff already ordered. It's beginning to look like junkyards for me for the dash. I think that the 77-79 were the same style of dash? I think in '80 they switched to completely new style of dash.
Thanks for the info on the transmission! I'll keep that in mind!

Yeah mine just says 1 2 3 4 and that's it. Will it say OD on the stick?

How do I check and see if it's a NP or the A833?

Sounds good. I didn't see a tag under the hood. I'll have to be crawling under and checking.

Does anybody know the bolt size for the flywheel dustcover? I don't know how to figure that out...

 

[UthMinJoe]

I do. I was kind of hoping that I don't have to do that. haha

I don't have any bolts though. For some reason the cover was taken off and no bolts...
