Need info on Dodge Big Horn that was at show in Columbia, MO

[Todd Wilson]

I was wondering if anyone that went to the Mopar show at Columbia, MO has any more info on this Big Horn that Mike posted in his pictures? My Big Horn registry buddys lost the wear abouts of this truck a few years ago and it has surfaced at this show. If anyone knows info or how I can get more info let me know! Thanks!

Mikes picture of it



A little info about Big Horns..........this truck might very well be one of the rarest Mopars at the show! I wonder how many people walked by it not knowing. That truck is probably a 75-100g truck if you would buy it.

I will admit that I walked by it and thought "nice custom dodge semi".  I did not consider that it might be a rare one......

I'll see what I can do Todd. I thought of all people you would get a kick out of it. I have to admit I would take it in a second.

Hey Todd

I talked to one of the guys who put on the columbia show, He wasn't positive but thought it came from Washington, MO. . It was definatley from Missouri but I will ask one of the others from the show if he knows more for you.

Ok Thanks.   It used to be owned by a CJ Shaw and he had his name and stuff on the door as he used the truck to haul.  We are wondering if it has been retired or sold .

 Hey Todd, how would you register a truck like that without commercial plates?? The one you got a pix.of in the salvage yard a while back,was that the same thing??

In Kansas you can register it as an Antique if its 35 years or older. No weight restrictions or hazmat on it.  You can haul what ever you want as long as its YOUR stuff you are hauling. NO $ for hauling anything.  Otherwise you could just get a truck plate or register it as an RV and then you are at the no CDL restriction of 26000lbs. Other states have similair things to register old trucks. Some register as a truck but you have a paper stating its an antique and not for hire.


Yes this is  a Bighorn like the one in the junkyard a while back I posted.

Old thread ... But new info.  This truck is now in Canada.  Rumor is that there will be another Bighorn at the Columbia show this year.  Maybe it won't lose to a Dakota like the last one did.
