Found this pic on another site, just had to share it w/ ya`ll.....According to the post, there were only 200 made for the US, and 2 made for Canada...Looks so cool, luv the paint details.....
I like it...man that paint and decal art takes me back...its like charlies angels and starsky & hutch all over again...or was it A team and simon and simon...lol
The Top Hand was a factory option package. Not at home now so I can't check my references but I believe it was a cosmetic package. BTW those are the original wheels too! They came striped just like the truck.
Thats a sweet truck .. On a hot rod forum Im on a guy just found a True Spirit truck in the arizona junkyard.. He bought it and has plans to make it his shop truck.. Heres a bit of how rare he posted it was..
The truck had some pin striping on it and a "True Spirit" decal on the front fender that I researched. Turns out this is one of the original 200 True Spirits produced by Dodge along with the original 200 Warlocks to test the market reaction to a factory custom pickup (the Warlocks were more popular and went into production for nation wide sale). Then I found out that for the entire 1976 production year there were only 70 D100 2WD stepsides produced with 440s and this is the ONLY known 440 powered True Spirit to be produced. Amazing what you find in an AZ wrecking yard .
It had 1 option that I wish was available now! Inline 6 Perkins Diesel! They were put together for Ron Hall, an old off road racer. If I remember right.
