1981-1985 Dodge Power Ram 150 Stepside |

Stepside was a Ford term. Dodge used the name "Utiline" for these beds. |

the pic is already up. just makin a fuss because i tried posting it first awhile ago. i was goin to post more pics of other cars/trucks but that dodge didnt post so i didnt. also due to this truck not having the upper body lines (the tops of the fenders are smooth) and not having the raised hood i strongly belive that this truck is a 74-78 power wagon and not a 81-85 power ram. how do i get this changed? |

I know you already know this and just mistyped it this time, but for the sake of accuracy I must point out the 'Stepside' is a Chevrolet term, the Ford term would be 'Flareside' |

Massive typo on my part Thanks for the correction. |

after looking through google images I do believe that this is the older 74-78 Power Wagon and not the 81 Power Ram (the edge of the grille is different and the truck above doesn't have the bodyline that the 81+ did) Compare: 1981: http://www.allpar.com/images/dodge/ram-1983/power-ram.jpg 1974: http://memimage.cardomain.com/ride_images/1/812/2601/2028800004_large.jpg |

thats exactly what i said in a previous post. look at the the hood on a 79+ as well, this truck has the birdbath style hood. the 79-80 trucks had the same hoods as the 81+ trucks. -- Last edit: 2010-09-13 06:54:53 (tonkaTRACKER) |

He was just trying to reinforce your previous comment. |
◊ 2010-09-13 06:41 |
indeed I was agreeing with you |
◊ 2010-09-13 06:41 |
and i was agreeing with him also and adding more info about the hoods of these trucks. |

very good! once we see the grill we can get the year! lol. |

Hmmm, it looks exactly like my 1984 D-150. I got super excited when I saw the trailer on tv a few hours ago, I looked it up online and I found this forum. Now I'm just curious what year it is and if it is the same as mine. |

yeah its deff. a 70s model, heres how I can tell 1.Small Bolt Pattern 2.Rounded Front Fenders vs Squared 3.Fender Lip At Wheel Arch Is Bigger Than 81-93 Models 4.Turn Signals Are Recessed In Fender, On 81-93 Models They Are Sitting On Outside Of Fender 5.The Recess Below Grille Is More Covered Up on 81-93 Models I Own 2 70s Power Wagons & 2 80s-90 RamChargers, I study the bodys for hours on end, plus study pics of 70s-90s Dodges for hours on end. |

i just watched the movie, its got the 79+hood on its safe to say this is a 79-80 power wagon |
◊ 2011-03-13 07:09 |
are you sure? I'm almost positive it's a 76-79 Warlock...... |

1979 Dodge Power Wagon. More pics: Link to "www.cinemavehicles.com" |

this is weird one guys..it got a 79+ hood but a 77 grill. call it what you want. if the movie company is calling it a 1979 then someone must of put a 77 grill on it. |

Okay to solve the mystery here the truck is a 1977 Dodge, my brother sold it from underneath of me to some movie guy, I had it restored, my father bought it brand new from the Nave Dealership. After my brother sold it the movie crew put a 4 wheel chassis under it, the rear bumper i had put on to pull a horse trailer. Not sure how I can add pictures here to prove.

Not trying to disprove you but the bed is different, at least the rear fenders are |
