1993 Dodge Ram Intercooled W250 Cummins Diesel 4x4 - 5 Speed Manual

(VIN: 1B7KM26C3PS119086)

This vehicle is a “MADE IN USA” 1993 INTERCOOLED 12-valve Cummins (many made in Mexico, the factory sticker will show legal MADE IN USA). With the exception of the $3000 NV-4500 5-Speed transmission upgrade, it sits basically stock, as it came from factory.  It has added a high quality $1200 sun/moon roof!

 

HIGHLIGHTS!

Dodge Ramcharger 250 CUMMINS (4WD; W250; DANA 70 REAR / DANA 60 FRONT TRANSAXLES). Also, front manual locking hubs – Highly Desirable!

Both DANA Front/Rear have fresh royal purple 90/75 and 90/145 fluids.

RARE Single Cab Long Bed; 5 – SPEED Manual Transmission, with New South Bend Clutch.

Very Clean. Chassis (Rocker Panels, Floor Boards, Bed… 100% Rust Free.

It also has added safety feature, KDP (Killer Dowel Pin) Tab installed.

Headliner is original with a little slack.

Never ever had a 5th wheel and used primarily for light duty.

 

·       Many new parts including Borgeson steering column upgrade and rebuilt steering box; alternator; new brake boost/ master cylinder; new wheel bearings and grease seals on front axle; within last three months, new fuel filter, K&N Air Filter and oil change (Rotella Diesel Oil).

·       All 100% functional holding 2015 Virginia Inspection. Heater Block chord/element works and it is fully functional. Glow plugs etc are great and starts in cold on a dime. That’s with no block heater ever even used.


Issues:

New windshield needed ! Recent hairline crack, see photo.

Emergency brake cable needs replacement.

 

Mechanical  Vehicle has just under 115,000 miles and is basically all stock.

Starts on the first revolution every time, even in winter.  

This 12-Valve Cummins is considered the simplest and, by many, the best Cummins and also considered bulletproof by many; first generation Intercooled engine. It carries great oil pressure cold. Transfer case and all 4x4 work very well.  As stated, the Killer Dowel Pin (KDP) Tab has already been done! Transmission is a NV-5400 upgrade from the stock Getrag 360. It has low mileage and shifts smooth and correctly, Castrol Syntorq Transmission Fluid purposefully overfilled by 1qt as recommended by Diesel Forum members.  

Steering feels like new… it is very tight as is entire front end. New ball joints and front suspension parts. (play is what I would very minimal for one of these trucks (ALMOST NONE)).  It has good wheel alignment and it does not pull left or right; drives straight down the road.  It is practically smoke free, even at idle when cold.  

Oil was changed recently and it is still on the “full” mark and clean.   Rear main and front seals are fine.  There are basically no leaks in the transmission, transfer case or differentials, also new shocks (see truck side photos).  Sits level side to side. Front brakes have good pad left.  Good solid brakes. It’s been very reliable.  It has a new Flow master 3” exhaust that sounds great. The undercarriage of the truck is clean in a way only a very salt-free truck. She spent most of her life in the mid atlantic area, primarly Maryland and Virginia. Very light use.

 

 Body

As stated, NO RUST.  It looks great in pictures and very good “in person”. Older but full bed removal / bare metal paint restoration (retail $8000+ paint job in MB 050 pearl). It is an older restoration! The truck has solid sheet metal. Fenderwells and rocker panels are a main concern on these early cummins 12-valve trucks. These are Rust Free. I.e. NO RUST AT ALL.  


Interior

It is in quite good stock condition. Headliner is ok.  Door panels and seats are absolutely excellent.  No cracks or sun damage to dash. The seat shows quality and care of interior.  Power window and door lock options. Interior lights and turn signals etc all work as new. It is a non-smoker truck and has no cigarette burns or odor.   The visors are in like-new shape and stay right up against the headliner. There is no sun fade because it was garaged most of it whole life.

 

Electrical/HVAC

Very original electrical system.   All exterior lights high/low beams work.  Dome light works, through the switch and function as it should, when doors are opened. Electric windows and locks are stock and work as new.  Horn works.   Turn signals and flashers work.   Heater works.  Blower works on all 4 speeds.  Gas gauge is accurate. Wipers and washer work.  All cosmetically and functionally excellent.

 

All in all it is a good solid truck.  The reserve is reasonable. I have a free and clear title in my name. The only reason i am selling this beast is i am getting an early racing ('73) porsche 911 and need the money. Feel free to check carfax and autocheck.  If you would like to setup an appointment to see it in person you can.   Wire transfer or cashier’s check, but truck and title stay with me until it clears.

South Dakota dealer filled to brim with classic cars

Wed, 12 Mar 2014

Other than the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and Mount Rushmore, South Dakota isn't generally a hot topic, but that just means that cool stuff can hide in the open waiting to be discovered. Case in point: the classic car dealer Frankman Motor Company that operates three locations in Sioux Falls, SD.
Unearthed by the folks at Bring a Trailer, Frankman is a treasure trove of vintage, American iron. Their collection is full of the type of vehicles your irresponsible but cool uncle would show up with when you were a kid. Even better, these cars are priced at a level a working man can afford.
If you are lusting about a cruiser then Frankman has a 1956 Cadillac Deville Hard Top Sedan (pictured right) with 82,896 miles for $12,975. It's painted a color called Cascade Grey, but looks more like a pastel purple in pictures. While it needs some repairs to the accessories, the Caddy runs and drives, which is all you really need.

The Walter P. Chrysler Museum is shutting down permanently this December

Thu, Nov 10 2016

It is with disappointment that we report the Walter P. Chrysler Museum in Auburn Hills, MI, will be closed down permanently at the end of this year. The museum, which closed in 2012 after not being able to cover costs, was recently reopened to the public on alternating weekends starting in June, but Chrysler made the decision to shutter it altogether after its final day of operation on December 18, 2016. The reason for this is primarily because FCA needs more office space, and the company decided to convert the museum for that purpose. The the cars will be moved to storage after the closure, and they'll be shown at various events. However, they'll only be able to be seen together for two more weekends. Those weekends include those of November 19 and 20, and December 17 and 18. The museum will be open from 10 am to 4 pm on those days. If you can, we highly recommend visiting the museum. Adults get in for $10, seniors and retired FCA employees for $8, kids between 6 and 17 for $6, and kids under 5 for free. It also has some fantastic cars including concepts from the 1950s to the 2000s, oddball performance vehicles such as the Omni GLH-S, and of course plenty of fascinating history. And if it makes any difference to you, there's even a purple Plymouth Prowler you can sit in. Just make sure you don't wait too long to make up your mind about visiting. Related Video:

MotorWeek remembers a better time for Mitsubishi performance

Fri, Feb 26 2016

Dodge still knows how to create an capable performance car – look at the Hellcats, for example – but the same isn't true for Mitsubishi. With the Lancer Evo's demise, we don't expect driving enthusiasts to clamor for any of the Japanese automaker's other products. Things used to be different, though. As MotorWeek found in its new Retro Review, the 1991 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4 and its sibling, the Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo, were impressive sports coupes in their day. Dodge and Mitsubishi packed a bevy of cutting-edge tech into the coupes. In these trims, both sported all-wheel drive, four-wheel steering, an adjustable suspension, active exhaust, and automatic climate control. The 3000GT VR4 upped the ante even more with active aero parts at the front and rear. Their 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 was good for 300 horsepower and 307 pound-feet, which were good numbers at the time. This pair put all their gizmos to good use, too. MotorWeek compares the all-wheel-drive system's grip levels to a Porsche 911 Carrera 4. When was the last time you heard any favorable similarity between a Mitsubishi and a Porsche? The Stealth R/T Turbo and 3000GT VR4 came from a special time for Japanese sports coupes, when every brand had a halo model. Whether you were looking at Nissan 300ZX, Mazda RX-7, Toyota Supra, or even the Acura NSX, there was a lot to like on the market. MotorWeek's latest Retro Review offers a great reminder of that period.
