- 1976 Dodge D100 Adventurer Club Cab Junkyard Find. Ran across this pretty cool club cab dodge truck recently in the yard and checked it out. Looked to be fairly straight and mostly all there. She did however, have some rust issues. But i must say I do like the look of a club cab Dodge pickup. The paint scheme was interesting. Reminded my of the scallop paint jobs that were all the rage back in the day. Shame this one is probably all ready crushed as i writ this description. Under the hood there was a goody or two as well. Interior had seen better days but it was an old truck so its to be expected.

Love the old dodges
Benny I like the Dodge Club Cab. nice truck
Worthy of refreshing it up, maybe some after market goodies and use as a daily driver!
Should not be crushed!
Yea you're right but unfortunately this one had no title. Yard wont sell them without a title
If you notice, Chrysler power steering pumps of this era and through the 1980s resemble GM power steering pumps. That is because Chrysler sourced them from Saginaw, who was a GM subsidiary.
I put a jeep Cherokee steering box amd shaft on my on 66 Buick Special. Also put a Cherokee steering shaft on my 80 Monte Carlo. I'm guessing jeep sourced GM subsidiary also?
I love the big gas pedal.
Brake pedal
Man what memories my first 4x4 was a 1972 long bed Stander cab one ton that was a prospector emblems on the side and was mint green with 8 inch lift springs on Dayton slag tires and never got stuck in the swaps of Florida thanks for Sharing
No problem. I'm from Florida too. Born and raised. By lake Okeechobee
@@ClassicRideSociety I have family in Florida too. My aunt just moved to Lakeland. Sold her house in NYC, she had been there since June of 1976, but lived in the area her whole life.
Cool truck I like the paint job looks like something I would do lol
It reminds me back when scallop paint jobs were all the rage
That thing is in good shape!
Yea she wasn't too bad
Another cool potential lowrider gone. That truck was well cared for to make it almost 45 years being that straight
Sadly it arrived without a title
Awesome good ol project truck club cab whic6 is rare my ❤ drop when you said crushed like nooo
Yep no title, they crush them
Your lucky to live in Texas the old stuffs long gone up here in northeast rustbelt very few cars&trucks from 60's or 70's show up in my 2 local yards.That truck would be saved if it was here love all old dodge ford and chevy trucks.😥4 that old gal'
Virtually the same here in NYC. That's because the property values exceed the value of keeping a junk yard around. Not far from where I work, they built an apartment complex over a corner property that housed a gas station and repair shop for years. The owner must have retired or just sold out. The gas station was down in short order and an apartment complex went up in its place.
Unfortunately when they arrive to the yards around here without a title it doesn't matter how nice...well at least nit at this yard. I saw them crush a mint. G body Monte Carlo. I tried to buy it from them. The girl said it had a title the dude said no. A week later it was in a stack of cars. Destroyed. It looked to have been garaged its whole life. That was sad.
@@ClassicRideSociety What year Monte Carlo and what engine did it have? Wonder why it wound up there?
@@googleusergp I can't remember which year exactly but it had the 4.3 with efi
@@googleusergp it was truly a sad side in more ways than one. I swear I found damn near the entire lives of the people who owned that car in the trunk. I found the mothers death certificate, the daughters high school diploma, the fathers wallet and Air Force medals. Tons of pictures dating all the way back to what looked like the 1800s. Never seen anything like that in the junkyard. I kept as much as I could carry with me. Luckily they didn't say anything as I walked out the yard with couple bags
That was a cool looking truck.
I thought so too
I liked everything except the paint job
Now wouldn't this look great with the floor mats you got eh? ^^
Man what a groovy paint job, you don't get those with cars nowadays, which are all trying to blend with the road lol!
Aftermarket stereo, aftermarket engine components, this owner wanted his truck to be unique and yes it is!
Ooh, the plastic coolant tanks are worth $$$ if not busted up. Minus the cap, you'd get a quick flip if ya snagged that ^^
Had no idea about the coolant tank. I don't think the van mats wound fit right on it though
@@ClassicRideSociety Oh yeah, with the unique shape and the ability to crack like every other 40+ year old plastic, finding one in complete is rare, especially for Dodge fans. I think Thecraig909 mentioned it briefly when he got the Dodge Power Wagon a while ago or one of his junkyard runs
Sad it got crushed here in VA uou never see them and parts is a pain to find at least it got parted first
Yea they don't last long in these yards around here. Most of them get crushed within a few months
I have a 73 club cab Dodge like that with short bed, 318 with manual transmission. Manual steering too.
Love the truck. That’s were my fear of hornets came from in a junk yard popped the hood on a 65 Chevelle. Big ass white face hornets nest I got lite up jack
Luckily I've never been stung by wasps. Almost though as I started to look under the dash of a nova and could buzzing getting louder. There was a nice amount of them under there
VIN is D1 for D100 (1/2 ton truck), 7 for Club Cab, B for 6,001 to 10,000 # GVWR, F for 360 V8 2 barrel (originally), 6 for 1976 model year, S for Warren Truck #1 assembly, the rest is the production sequence. Yes, KEM Auto Parts. They were a manufacturer distributor located at 18-35 River Road in Fair Lawn, NJ, up off Route 208. They were started in 1920 and Richard Brown was their long time CEO. I interviewed with them as I worked for their competitor for 11 years. The guy that interviewed me turned it into an ordeal, that is because he saw what my salary requirements were (which were probably more than he was making or willing to pay). They then gave me an aptitude test which I flew through with flying colors (at the time I had just completed my MBA). I found it to be a fishing expedition to see how their competitor (the company I worked for) did business and just fish for information with no real intent to hire me. Karma is a bitch because they went out of business in 2005 on the exact day I started my current job. LOL. They were a "two step' distributor. That is straight from their docks to the distributor/warehouse. In theory, an auto parts store could buy direct from their warehouses. They had those ugly yellow MAG ignition wires which I believe were sourced from Bosch and they assembled them in Paterson, NJ in a warehouse. The company I worked for bought the fuel pump product line from them in 1988. That was my first product line to manage in 1994 when I started. They (KEM) also bought parts from everyone and reboxed them because they didn't manufacture much on their own, they were mostly a reboxer. Some stuff came from the same sources as everyone else, some of their caps and rotors came from Canada from probably a smaller manufacturer. Relays came from companies like Pokorny who were making them for just about everyone. The site at 18-35 River Road is gone, KEM is long out of business since as I mentioned, in 2005, and there's a CVS Pharmacy in its place for several years now.
Google User GP Your info on the VIN is ok but some of your stories are getting thick. You sound like that one drunk guy at the party that steps on a rock and then says "Back in 300 AD I went for an interview to show a man how to make a wheel. When I told him I wanted 3 chickens and 2 daughters he got mad".
I get a good laugh every time you post so keep them coming.
I tell it like it is. Instead of flapping yer lips and not contributing, try it sometime, you will learn something. Now, your comment and 2.75 gets ya on NYC Transit. Lol.
@@googleusergp What ever you say buddy. If the stories were true then you would get upset and insult people now would you.
Instead of flapping yer lips , come up with stories people will believe.
Now, your comment could get you a free ass kicking and a cold beer.
@@mmill6505 Dude you can't insult ignorant people, now can you? My parents taught me a lot and two things they taught me: you can't fix stupid and if you don't have anything to bring to the party, don't say it. The story is true. The name of the guy that interviewed me at KEM was Jay Eckstein, he was the head of marketing at KEM for years. If the story weren't true, how I would I remember that fact from over 20 years ago? When you want to go head to head on vehicle knowledge, VIN numbers, trim tag decoding and anything in between, bring it on, son. You'll easy go back to your sorrows in cold beer.
@@mmill6505 I'm going to guess you're one of those Keyboard Commandos that tells the world that that a 455 Pontiac was a big block. I get a good laugh with folks like you that shoot from the hip and wouldn't know a VIN tag from a trim tag code. Put your money where your mouth is, son. Let's hear it.
Cool 😀
Dodge doesn’t exist on a truck anymore
Stelantis Ram now
Cool old truck my uncle had a 79 straight cab 3 on the tree with a slant 6
My Friend weere you find this dodge i need bunch of parts this model i live in Fort worth Texas
Man that engine looked like it could run with a few things like gas and a battery.
Too bad all that good stuff went to China where people will get cheap ass toasters along with their Amazon spending sprees.
I bet it wouldn't take much to get it running again
@@ClassicRideSociety Is Craigslist, eBay, LetGo, or Esty frequently used in Texas? Maybe even an old-fashioned garage/estate sale? Or just leaving the car at a free public parking with a "For Sale" sign? There's so many methods on/offline one could do to get rid of a car instead of junking it.
@@nathankim7664 For most it's just easier to call up the yard and they come and get it from you. Problem solved (for them). Whatever they get for it is what they get for it. I would think also if there's no title for it, folks figure it's easier for the yard to deal with that rather than get the title and try to sell it for making marginally more. It's now how we think, but how the average citizen probably does.
@@googleusergp At least I'm with a more intelligent group of people ^^
Dunno about you, but there's one good thing that the Great Depression of 2008 did to us: we became more frugal and put our money where stuff will last long. Recent statistics say that the average age of the cars on the road is the largest ever at 11.8 years. We're saving $$$ buy not buying a new car, where $25k will buy you a cheapie car where that used to be $10-$15k. We take more care of our current cars, meaning we are avoiding 60 month payment plans or something like that.
Even though I 9 in 1976 I thought these trucks in design were nice looking even when redesigned in early 80's if not before with the square headlights & were changed from D 1500 to Dodge Ram 1500 with the ram hood ornament on hood.
Bro I live in Miami Nothing like that over here
Oh you don't have to tell me. Not sure if ive mentioned it before but im from Palm Beach County and classic anything is slim pickings over there. And what you do find be big time rusty
Would be A1 with a new hemi.
I wouldn't mind seeing that
Where's this truck located?
It was at Crain's Auto Salvage in Ft worth TX. But it's long gone now
Still have access to this truck?
They crushed it already
