some other cars Reply #4 – June 11, 2008, 10:54:39 PM I didn't realize that the Durange was a production vehicle. It looked like a well done one-off. Nobody interested in the CV? It's got a manual transmission. Quote Selected

Nobody interested in the CV? It's got a manual transmission.I'm never interested in CV's. The Durangos were a conversion that was available in '81. They were all based on I6 cars. VERY few were made.There have been several look-alike one-offs done. All the "real" ones have a fiberglass bed/tub. Quote Selected
some other cars Reply #6 – June 11, 2008, 11:37:34 PM Did Ford do the conversion or someone else? I couldn't tell you what material they used for the tub, but the finish around the top edge seemed too rough to be factory, so I ASSumed it was a one-off. Besides, isn't "durango" owned by (now) Mercedes Benz? Quote Selected

As I understand it they produced about 220 units during this period.I don't think more than a 100 (if that) were even completed.I almost bought one a few years ago. Quote Selected
