1978 Dodge Power Wagon

From Reid Cunningham: With the 4th of July tomorrow, this 1978 Power Wagon with the US flag is right in theme.  The window description gives it's unusual history.  Bedford NH, I may have sent you a distant picture of this as part of a collection of trucks, but now it's for sale.  My car is at the end of its life, this would make a fun replacement (well, except at the gas pump, even with the 318 it would be very thirsty).  Alas, I don't think anyone would give a loan on a 78 along with other limitations of driving a 42 year old truck every day.

AL: we've run other Power Wagons of this era, and earlier GI versions.
