Dodge A100 Daily Driver vs. 1940 Chevy Truck Rat Rod Project

We tried to push this old Pre-War Chevy truck by hand, but it was stuck and wouldn't budge. So I used my Dodge A100 with a 225 cid Slant Six, 3 in the Tree shifter and Cherry Bomb glass pack exhaust.

I'm thinking about buying an A100, how does the engine run? Can it do 70 mph on the freeway?

@irmdog I have a 225 c.i. Slant 6 in mine that will cruise 65 to 70 on the highway. Some came with a 318 c.i. V8 that I hear is more highway friendly.

Just got back from our third road trip from Los Angeles, Ca. to Reno, Nv. and back home to L.A. Van loves these long cruises and just purrs along!

WTF?

Zed: Go get the Gimp.

Zed's Friend: The Gimp's asleep.

Zed: I guess you'll just have to wake him now, won't you?

Unfortunantly the truck project has been put on hold. We are building a teardrop trailer to sell to generate more funds for the truck build. Engines get a little expensive...
