By the fender badging, it is from 1969 - 1971. It is more than a 3/4 ton by the fender flare... a D-300 to D-500 ? |

After the purchase of the Brazilian Chrysler in the end of the 70s, Volkswagen do Brasil launched its own trucks based on the chassis of Dodge trucks. The MWM and Cummins diesel engines, and the front removable hoop wheels (similars to the Scania trucks) is the same of the Dodge trucks. |

The Dodge of "Carga Pesada" was a medium-duty truck, it was a D-700 of the beginning of the 80s. |

For the actor's picture I believe that image is from the first version of "Carga Pesada", TV series that was exhibited originally by the Rede Globo between May 22, 1979 to January 2, 1981, on Tuesdays in the schedule of 22 o'clock. In this period it had a total of 54 episodes. The series was exhibited again (starting from April 29, 2003) in the Friday nights. The producers of the current version insisted on stressing to the time of the release that is not treated of a remake, but of a continuation of the previous version, two decades later. |

Judging by the bigger flares, this is a 1979-81 Dodge D900. -- Last edit: 2023-04-15 23:04:43 |
