Does anyone remember the 1974 Dodge pickup? I pulled mine out of storage the other day, intending to restore it. But I noticed the kit (unlike the '78) has a beltline molding around it. The box art shows it to be black and chrome. But there is actually some woodgrain look to it. Does anyone know where I can find some reference material for it? I'm also looking for suggestions on what to do with it. Clean it and display it as is? Strip it and do something else with it? Thoughts? Thanks, John

This is a "what if" or "phantom" build of a Caravan pickup (inspired by the A100) I started exactly 1 month ago. Not sure what the model name should be. El Caravano? Ramchero? I considered El Toro but its a Dodge Ram (and that's no bull!) El Ramo! No... Maybe El Carnero , Spanish for The Ram, sounds logical. Suggestions welcome. I am using the Revellogram Dodge Ram VTS pickup to complete the conversion, using the cab's back wall, bed, tailgate, taillights &bumper. The bed is actually to short for the Caravan so I graphed on the appropriate length from a 2nd VTS kit. I would have liked to the Caravan taillights but had to flatten the shape at the rear to accommodate a practical tailgate. I also pushed out the rear quarter panels from about the back edge of the wheel opening on back, which allowed for a full width box. (Box length is approx. 7 1/2 scale feet.) More later. Comments, suggestions welcome.
