    Hi Folks, Back in the 80's my grandfather sold me a MINT 1972 B200 Doge Royal Sportsman window van with 28k miles. Factory interior 318 3 speed green and white just like the one on the 72 brochure but the "shorty". Stupid and young I drove it into the ground and sold it for 350 bucks in Amenia, NY. Well my grandfather is gone and so is the van. I want to build a replica and am looking for a vehicle to start with. So 1972ish shorty window van solid bones anywhere in the country for something worth chasing. Done a lot of stupid things in my life but selling that van was one of the biggest. Crying or Very sad

    Trying to find something REALLY close to what I bought off my grandfather. Lots of backstory--too much for here. Lets just say I'm 52 and its my mid life crisis. I was told you guys are flat fronts but almost everyone that owns one has history in one so they would understand. Hoping someone can connect me....It would mean a lot.

    Here's a site below that has about 4 Dodges with hoods for sale. They list old and newer vans for sale and you might find one on here. Also, when I do the Chevy listings on the weekend, I'll look for Dodges as well and if I find one, I'll post in the Early Enough section on this site. You can check them out in there.
