During the 1960’s and early 1970’s, Chrysler had produced Dodge Forward Control Medium-Duty trucks that shared a cab with the Dodge A-van pickup truck models. They were given the “L” model designation, not to be confused with Ford’s L-Series Medium & Heavy-Duty trucks.

These trucks were built with the slant-6 engines, B-series V8 engines; and Cummins and Perkins diesel engines.

These trucks were Dodge’s competitor to the Ford C-Series, GM New Steel Tilt Cab, and the International Harvester/Navistar Cargostar.

These were built at the Chrysler plant on Sherwood Avenue in Warren, Michigan along with the rest of Dodge’s Medium & Heavy-Duty truck line.
