Dodge A100

Post by polosteve »

Evening All

My name is Steve, some of you may know or have spoken to my Dad Terry. He has an A100 Xplorer and did have a blue A100 Pickup which ended up going back over the Atlantic?

Heres my new ride - lots of niggles to sort out including a mass of ropey lpg stuff to remove.

It had an o.g. starter which died big time on the first day of me owning it. I fitted a mcleod hi torque mini starter which works but os ON the headers. Not close but literally on the exhaust headers... investigating to be done...

peace

:D

Really cool, is this the one that Dave Madders brought in some years ago? I haven't seen it for a long time and was hoping it wasn't sitting in someones garden going rotten, Love it!

Similar.... but not the one.

Mine was a 68 A108, pop top, slatted windows and the coolest 'Family Wagon' badge I have ever seen.

Think mine ended up with a chequered front bumper ?
