Atlanta Craigslist strikes again. These are pretty rare trucks. I'd fix the mechanicals and drive it just like that!

No title in SC pretty much means parts truck or scrap. If you tried to title it in SC, the DMV is going to:
Too bad, that's a pretty cool truck.
I want one so bad....
many states don't issue titles for older stuff. Never understood that. GA is one of them I think. Just bill of sale. Doesn't SC have some sort of lost title process?
No title in Kentucky is no problem at all..

Well, there actually is for vehicles older than 25 years. The formatting is screwed up, but here is the text from the DMV website.
Vehicles 25 Years Old or Older with No Title If you need to title a vehicle, mobile home, or trailer that is 25 years old or older, and you are unable to obtain the previous title, you may apply for approval to title a vehicle. Requests for approval to title a motor vehicle, mobile home or trailer are only processed by mail in DMV headquarters and are done on a case by case basis.
The current owner of the vehicle must be a resident of South Carolina evidenced by a South Carolina credential, a mobile home housed in South Carolina or proof of legal presence in South Carolina (see Acceptable Forms of Identification for more information.) Apply for approval to title by submitting the following:
Affidavit of Ownership, Form TI-021A, which must include the vehicle and current owner information, and a statement indicating how the vehicle was acquired to include in detail how, where and when the owner acquired the vehicle, who were the seller(s) and/or lien holder(s), the condition of the vehicle and any other information regarding the vehicle. Photographs of the vehicle, mobile home, or trailer from all angles (photos will not be returned). Vehicle Identification Verification for Title without Previous Title, Form TI-021B signed by a SCDMV official. The vehicle must be taken to a local DMV branch by the customer for an inspection if the customer wishes to obtain a South Carolina title. If a unique identifying number is not affixed to the vehicle, you will be required to apply for a special serial number from the Department – Application for a Special Serial Number, Form 401-A before proceeding with this request. If the vehicle is not operable at the time of inspection, you may be approved to obtain a title that is branded “not for road use” only. Once the vehicle is operable, it will need to be inspected before the “not for road use” brand can be removed and the vehicle can be registered. Additional Requirements for Mobile Homes A letter or receipt from the county treasurer’s office indicating property taxes are current for the mobile home. Seven (7) years of property tax statements in the current owner’s name; or, Insurance company records indicating the home has been insured in the owner’s name for the previous 7 years or more. The insurance documents or property tax statements must include the mobile home’s vehicle identification number. These documents should be submitted to SCDMV by mail at Post Office Box 1498, Blythewood, SC 29016-0024. Once the Department is certain that no previous title exists for the vehicle, or can be obtained, the Form TI-021A may be approved and you can apply for title using the approved Form TI-021A in lieu of the previous title in any SCDMV office. The approval to title is not proof of ownership and cannot be used to title in a jurisdiction other than South Carolina. You must meet all other titling requirements as outlined in this section, including payment of use taxes based on the purchase price of the vehicle, and title and registration fees.
^ didn't read all of that, but the easy no-title process is why I love living in Georgia. If it isn't recently/currently registered when you buy it, you just have to have a cop come run a T-22(??) or some form after checking the VIN that verifies it isn't stolen. After that, the vehicle is registered as Non-Titled, or something along the lines of "you can never title it again, and neither can anyone else". That alone makes me want to live in GA forever, no title=no problem
That truck has been for sale for months with no takers. I think it is still a bit overpriced, personally.
Dude...that thing is weird looking

Nah, that's just a blunt instrument truck; Sweepsides are weird !!
Sweptside Dodges are definitely strange looking, but the Dude models are cool, and I haven't seen one for sale anywhere in ages. I completely missed the title thing. Some states allow you to apply for a title if you have a previous registration.
I do prefer the 1972-1993 trucks. A good friend of mine has a gnarly 1972 D100 short bed with a 4-speed and a 440. It was Farm Truck before Farm Trucks were cool; he bought it in North Carolina on eBay from some old farmer and drove it home to MA. It used to have three-on-the-tree and a sloppy, loose 318 until he shoved a 440 out of a New Yorker in it.
Never seen one of these before...random and cool.
I am sooo glad that's a day away since I've been looking at/for older Mopar and Ford trucks lately.
If you ever took it to a show you be so tired of hearing "Dude!" you'd want to stuff some of that rust in your ears by the end of the day.
