Hello Juan,

Re: Dodge Truck Build Card compilation
Just an idea ...
Maybe we can make this thread sticky?
Of course I would gladly direct link all the cards here BUT as the forum software cuts the pictures at ca. 600 px the cards would be cut at the right hand side as they are 710 px wide. If I shrink them to 600 px they are too small to clearly read the data.
one example of the 710 px cut pictures:

Re: Dodge Truck Build Card compilation
Sylvia, I took the liberty of putting a link to your website on my already sticky database post. I'll add one directly to the build card portion and maybe this topic too. let me know what you think
"Battle is the most magnificent competition in which a human being can indulge. It brings out all that is best; it removes all that is base... The coward is the one who lets his fear overcome his sense of duty. Duty is the essence of manhood."

Re: Dodge Truck Build Card compilation
Hi Rocks,
thanks for the link to command-car.com!
Another link to the build cards would be nice, too
However I think a sticky extra post might be fine, too as I think not everybody knows that a build card can be ordered by everyone.
Kindest regards
Sylvia

I forget who I got the 64 info from, but it can probably be found in my database post somewhere. Rgus has a build card for his 63 and the proper nomenclature for a 55 is "gun motor carriage" I think.

62 = Closed cab
66 = Express body with transverse rear seats
76 = Express body with no rearseats
86 = Gun motor carriage
90 = Flat faced cowl with bucket seats
under reserve and still confirmable:

Re: Dodge Truck Build Card compilation (60 +)
Florence,
Here is a link to a copy of my "Build Card" for your database.
Apparently the file is to big to send thru the forum. I also tried to send it via PM to you but I don't think it went through.

Re: Dodge Truck Build Card compilation (60 +)
I hope you don't mind me hijacking your thread Sylvia.
I made this blank buildcard up a wee while ago.
I thought it would be cool to take to shows without compromising the 'original' photocopy.
print on card, fill it out, voila.

If you agree I would be happy to add it to the build card compilation, too?
Cheers
