Default 77 dodge power wagon info

i just recently bought a 1977 dodge w100 power wagon stepside with a factory 440 big block with a 727 trans and a np 203 t-case. i cant find much info on it at all, if anyone knows much about these old trucks let me know, oh and it factory air and cruise control. im really trying to figure out how rare it is so that i decide how to fix it up or restore it, thanks for the info

Don't know how rare it is, but it would be a fun truck to drive. I had a 77 fleetside w100 with a factory 400 BB 727, with the 203. I miss that ole truck.

Sounds like an awesome truck. Show us some pics before you go. Mid to late 70's have always been my favorites. Do you even know if it's an original 440?

sounds to me like you got a winner there.... 727..best tranny from that era dodge 203...good tcase from that era ...dana44 up front?? i think is good up to 35 inch tires 9.25 rear ...good rear end and a 440 ...which could be ok or awesome.... that's a engine that has a lot of potential either way...only draw back would be the MPG

my 2 cents
