1981 Ford Durango

I purchased this vehicle about 4 years ago and use it for a daily driver. I have pictures and magazine articles that I am willing to share with other interested parties. Please note this vehicle is NOT for sale.

Hi and welcome Beezelbub.
I`ve never heard of a Durango before, sounds interesting.
Drop into your local AZ chapter with an intro soon.

I wonder if it is a dealer special edition - 81 is way before the Dodge Durango came on the scene.

Did you see the Ford/Chrysler merge thread - Maybe there will be a 2000 something Ford Durango.

the ford durango is a fairmont pickup.


think of a fairmont futura ranchero, and you have a ford durango.

they were poor sellers, and are now quite rare.
