Hello Everyone,
I found a 1977 Dodge Power Wagon 4X4 camper that I am thinking about purchasing. I don't know a ton about this camper but am very interested in it and was wondering what everyone's thoughts were. The guy wants $2800 for it. It has the 360 and runs and drives and the 4 wheel drive works. I was curious what everyone thought on the price?
I understand its old, I understand the mileage is terrible and that it is probably under powered but that doesn't bother me. I have a friend with a 1978 dodge motorhome that knows the motor work side of things if it ever comes to that and I am fairly handy myself. I love the looks of the thing and I love that it has 4 wheel drive. I'd rather putt around in something old like this that can go down bad roads and through brush and not worry about banging it up a bit anyways:)

I had a Power Wagon that year back in 1980. It was a great truck very dependable.

I wouldnt assume you will have problems with it but I would look carefully at shocks, springs and front end parts to see what might be worn and needs replacing.

I pulled large tree stumps with mine all day long. It was great.

I agree with the guy who said the paint job alone is worth it!
