Hey everybody! Im a new owner of a 1983 dodge D50 rwd. The story goes that shes only had one owner and for the last 12 years has been parked in a garage. So, shes in great shape. Apart for some rust on the frame and a slow leak in the rear differential, theres no aparent issues. Ive been crusing around for the two weeks since i picked her up and i have to say, im in love. The person who sold it to me inherited the truck. Theres 76,000 km on the odometer and he told me those are original. For the condition shes in im not suprised. Though I just realized today the odometer only has 5 figures + the 0.1km counter. So it appears theres no room for a 6th figure. What happens when the vehicle reaches 100,000km? Does the odometer reset at 99,999? Would the 0.1km counter (the white number) start counting 1km therefore allowing the odometer to read 100,000km? (This is my best guess)
Maybe this is common knowledge but I have never owned a vehicle with under 100,000km!
My second question is, what is the value of a truck like this? I guess its hard to determine without inspection but with my description and these few pictures, could you say approximately?
Im very happy to have found this forum. I love my d50.
