Hi all, I just bought my dream truck, a 1972 Fargo D100. It's a longbox, 2wd, Adventurer Sport, 318 auto that came from a farm in Alberta. It's certainly in rough shape, but I'm looking forward to the project. This'll be my second project vehicle, my first being a 1975 Imperial, so I'm looking forward to the simplicity of a truck. So far I've managed to get it running, although I have to jump the starter relay, the fuel supply is from a gas can, it backfires every time I give it throttle, and it has no brakes. The not so short list of issues to fix goes something like this: fix the starter wiring, fix the in-cab wiring, fix the brakes, engine tune-up, put some tail lights in it, replace the windshield, replace the bumper, get the proper '72 grille, etc. Sourcing parts is going to be difficult, unfortunately here in Ontario parts are scarce as they've all rusted into the ground.
As I'm new to the Mopar truck world, and resources online are scarce, I'll likely be asking a lot of questions here.
