Possibly looking at 76 D200-ADVICE
I will check what carb is has when I go see it, which will be next week. It seems to be a pretty nice truck, so I imagine it has a/c. It also has a gooseneck mount in the bed, so it towed trailers for part of it's life.
Yeah, it's a 2WD. W's are 4x4 as you well know.
Plan for the truck? Yeah, I'm weird, if the **** hits the fan and we have an EMP, I have transportation if I can get fuel. (don't give me bs, I know the problems already). If everything is fine, I plan on doing like a resto-mod. Even though it's a 3/4 ton and a CC, it would still look cool, me thinks.
I dunno what headers it's got, but it does have duals at 90's out back. Looks to be 2.5's. The guy I talked to said that when he acquired it, he used it to tow some horse trailers and what not, and he said that it pulled really well.
And unfortunately, no pictures ATM...and no phone either. The truck is also about 20 mi away.

And that is what I thought, a clean D200 would be pretty nice. It's also a Club Cab and while I know you don't care for it, I think it looks neat and it's also very rare around here. I saw a 75 D200 custom on youtube that had a chopped roof, was really clean.

Sounds like a fun project. Those 400 big blocks are a bit doggy from the factory. They kind of drove like they were equiped with a really heavy 4 cyl engine lol. They do wake up with some mods and it sounds like you have a good start with the headers and dual exhaust. A nice carb and a good tune up would probably make it very happy. I hope the deal works out and that you keep us posted
I had one of those engines in a 72 charger I restored.
