Hello folks, I’m putting up my 1993 Dodge Ram W350 for sale. First let me say I LOVE this truck. The only reason why I’m selling it is because my knee is giving me issues from past injuries and the clutch pedal isn’t helping me at all, simply put I can’t drive a standard shift truck anymore

    I bought this truck from the original owner about 7 years ago. The gentleman I purchased it from used it for a tow rig for his offshore racing boat.  I have all the original paperwork for the truck including the window sticker, bill of sale and the title which shows 8 miles (never exchanged hands until I purchased it) even the sales brushier which shows THIS TRUCK ON THE COVER. This truck was $32,000 in 1993. There was no expense spared it has every option available at the time(club cab LE, power windows, power mirrors, power locks, cruise, infinity sound,3:55 gear set, 4x4) .

    I looked for a long time to find this truck, these early Cummins Diesel trucks are very hard to find and keep climbing in price. In my opinion this truck here will be a collectable in years to come. Being I intended to keep this rig for ever I decided to put a full frame up restoration into the truck. The entire body came off and I bought the best of the best components.

 Below is the list of work completed about 18 months(15k miles)ago.

·         Full frame was sandblasted and painted in industrial chassis black

·         All new stainless steel brake lines from the master all the way to the wheels

·         Stainless braided brake hoses

·         Completely new rear brake assemblies along with new drums, e-brake cables …EVERYTHING

·         High pressure nitro filled shocks all around

·         Cross drilled rotors with new calipers, HD pads, hardware…

·         Entirely new steering, Tie rods, draglink, king pin bushings and seals, power steering hoses….

·         New spicer U-joints in the entire truck must be 10 of them all together

·         New HD clutch with upgraded ball bearing pilot bushing

·         Completely rebuilt Getrag transmission (close to 3K for this job)

·         All new performance 4” exhaust from the Turbo all the way out

·         Ultra heavy duty battery with upgraded heavy equipment type battery cables

·         New Genuine MOPAR injection pump.(that’s right genuine Mopar,not some ebay junk)  

·         New Genuine Mopar injectors (stock HP)

·          Lift pump, Killer dowl pin safety kit

·         4 new 235/85/16 E-rated tires

·         The list goes on and on ,I kept every receipt and truthfully I don’t want to go through them all, I’ll end up having a breakdown. If I had to estimate I would say I’m into this truck for 25K in parts alone.

I never touched the body on the truck. It looks like the bed and Cab is in original paint, the doors and fenders were repainted at some point in its life.

The ugly:

There is one rust spot on the drivers rocker panel which you can see in the pictures and the driver and passenger floor are very rusty (most likely from wet feet on the carpet over the years). My intention was to put a retro like paint job on the truck in the future, two tone brown metallic or something similar. The truck was originally an automatic so the gear shift on the column is still there. I have a standard shift column that comes with truck if new owner wants to swap it out.

Overall:

Also included in sale is full length aluminum diamond plate running boards (dually specific , wide where wheel flares out)

Leer camper cap with carpeting and camper door (full height door, you remove tailgate and this door hinges up but has a door in the middle for people to get in and out of)

Complete set of 6 custom Rickson 19.5” wheels powder coated desert sand. (no tires)

Will this truck be a collectible? Maybe? One thing for certain is this truck does the same job as the new $60K Cummins Dually rig, if not better I get 16mpg towing  on a regular basis.

 If your looking for a work horse this is it. If your looking Cummins  Diesel this is it. If your looking for a rare first gen Dodge this is it. This truck has it all. If you have any questions please contact at fieldcombs@gmail.com

I will be looking for a automatic truck and will consider swapping for a muscle car or mopar project.

Thanks for looking guys and take care.

Few things I forgot to mention. The truck has had a bed liner in it and a camper cap since day one. There are no dents or rust inside the bed. No goosenecks or fifth wheels ever but it does have a new 12K receiver and flat 7-pin with brake controller. A nice accessory I put in the truck is I have 2/0 battery cable running to the receiver and a quick connector for powering heavy amperage loads, works great for jumper cables or trailer winches and other accessories.

Chrysler recalling 49K Chargers for headlight components

Fri, 14 Mar 2014

Chrysler has issued a recall for about 49,375 2011 and 2012 Dodge Chargers with halogen headlamps due to a problem with the lights. The automaker says that there could be an issue with the jumper harness and other related components.
The automaker says that 43,450 cars are affected in the US, 2,850 in Canada, 375 in Mexico and 2,700 outside of North America. The vehicles will have their headlight assemblies, including the jumper harnesses and bulbs, inspected and potentially replaced. Dodge says that its engineers investigated reports of that were similar to what was found when it recalled about 10,000 police Chargers in 2012 for overheating light components. There have been no injuries or accidents related to fault, according to Chrysler.
The automaker will be in contact with affected owners, and schedule the service. Naturally, any repairs will be free of charge. Scroll down for the company's full announcement.

Dodge, Hyundai crowdsourced-funding sites deemed successes

Wed, 05 Jun 2013

What's not to love about crowdsourcing? This idea, after all, has given us Kickstarter as well Local Motors, but automakers are starting to use the social platform to sell more cars (or just drum up a little PR). Both Dodge and Hyundai have used "crowd-funding" recently, and while Automotive News is reporting that neither has racked up big sales with this gimmick, both automakers are pleased with the attention.
For Hyundai, it teamed up with website Motozuma.com to help customers crowdsource money for a down payment, and the automaker matched this amount up to $500. Last year, this helped Hyundai sell an extra 1,600 units, a fraction of its total 2012 sales. That figure is far larger than Dodge fared with the Dodge Dart Registry - it netted only two sales and a small number of individual options. This registry did help University of Southern California fraternity crowdsource $18,000 to buy a Dart for a local Meals on Wheels, however. Despite the low sales figures, Dodge and Hyundai are considering their crowdsourcing programs a success since it helped them connect with younger buyers.

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky

Fri, 24 Aug 2012

It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
Check out our gallery of discontinued cars above, then scroll down for more information.
