 THANK YOU FOR LOOKING AT MY 1982 DODGE RAM D100 SHORT BED.

DRIVETRAIN-
THIS TRUCK ORIGINALLY CAME WITH THE VENERABLE SLANT 6 ENGINE AND AUTOMATIC TRANS.  IT HAD 63000 ORIGINAL MILES ON IT WHEN I GOT IT, AND RAN LIKE BRAND NEW.  I WANTED MORE POWER AS US GUYS TEND TO, SO I SOURCED A STRONG RUNNING FRESH 440 CUBIC INCH MOPAR BIG BLOCK FOR IT!  I HAD NO IDEA ALL THE WORK THAT WAS INVOLVED IN SWITCHING OVER TO THIS BIG BLOCK, BUT IN THE END, IT CAME OUT FANTASTIC!  THE ENGINE IS A STOCK EARLY 70'S 440 WITH FULL LENGTH HEADERS, HIGH RISE ALUMINUM INTAKE, EDELBROCK 4 BARREL CARB, MOPAR ELECTRONIC IGNITION, WITH CHROME BOX.  THIS TRUCK RUNS PERFECT!  IT HAS A NEW RADIATOR, NEW WATER PUMP, NEW ALTERNATOR, NEW BELTS ETC.  ALL ITEMS WERE REPLACED WHEN ENGINE WAS INSTALLED 1 YEAR AGO.  IT IS BACKED UP BY A STRONG SHIFTING 727 TORQUE FLITE TRANS.  I WOULD NOT BE AFRAID TO GET IN THIS TRUCK AND DRIVE IT ANYWHERE! IT HAS MADE THE TRIP OVER THE MOUNTAIN TO VIRGINIA LOTS OF TIMES, AND  IT EVEN DOES DECENT ON GAS AS LONG AS YOU STAY OUT OF IT!  IT HAS ALL NEW DUAL EXHAUST ALSO.
THIS TRUCK IS ALSO VERY QUICK, AS YOU CAN PROBABLY IMAGINE.  THESE 440'S PUT OUT A TON OR HORSEPOWER AND TORQUE!  THIS ONE DOES NOT SMOKE, LEAK, BURN OIL, OR DO ANYTHING IT ISNT SUPPOSED TO DO!  IT RUNS EXTREMELY COOL EVEN IN HEAVY TRAFFIC.
HAS ALMOST NEW TIRES ON IT.

BODY-
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL TENNESSEE TRUCK, AND HAS NEVER HAD ANY RUST ON THE BODY OR FLOORS- EVER, NO RUST!!  IF YOU LIKE THESE DODGE TRUCKS, THEN YOU KNOW HOW HARD THAT IS TO FIND!  THIS TRUCK IS STRAIGHT, AND NEVER HAD ANY BODY DAMAGE, OR ACCIDENTS EITHER.  REMEMBER, THIS IS A 65000 ORIGINAL MILE TRUCK!  IT WAS PAINTED LAST YEAR AND HAS A DECENT PAINT JOB.  IT IS THE ORIGINAL COLOR BUT WE ADDED EXTRA METAL FLAKE.  IT LOOKS FANTASTIC IN THE SUN!  IT HAS NOT BEEN WHEELED OUT OR BUFFED SINCE IT WAS PAINTED.  IF SOMEONE TOOK THE TIME TO DO IT, IT WOULD LOOK FANTASTIC!  TRUCK HAS HAD A ROLL PAN INSTALLED.  WE ALSO INSTALLED THE 70'S STYLE "BIRD BATH" HOOD.

INTERIOR-
THIS IS WHERE THIS TRUCK NEEDS SOME TLC.  THE CARPET NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.  THE SEAT HAS A SMALL RIP WHERE THE DRIVER GETS IN AND OUT.  OTHER THAN THAT, IT IS IN NICE SHAPE FOR A 32 YEAR OLD TRUCK.  EVERYTHING WORKS AS IT SHOULD, RADIO, HEAT, LIGHTS, GAUGES ETC.  THE TRUCK IS VERY TIGHT INSIDE, WITH NO WIND NOISE BELIEVE IT OR NOT.  IT RIDES AND DRIVES LIKE NEW, JUST FASTER!

I HAD PLANNED ON KEEPING THIS TRUCK FOREVER, AND FINISHING IT OFF, BUT I HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE A NEW SRT8 DODGE CHALLENGER, SO MY OTHER TOYS NOW HAVE TO GO!  THE RESERVE ON THIS TRUCK IS WAY BELOW THE AMOUNT THAT I HAVE IN THIS TRUCK.  YOU CAN NOT BUILD THIS TRUCK THIS WAY FOR EVEN CLOSE TO THE RESERVE PRICE.(HAVE YOU PRICED MOPAR PARTS LATELY? LOL)

THE TRUCK IS LOCATED AT MY DAD'S HOUSE IN SEVIERVILLE TENNESSEE.  IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CALL DOUG AT 630-327-4350.
