really nice truck! How much did you pay for it? I am looking at an 84' 6cyl. longbed for 1000. is that a good deal? runs and drives...the body is OK....old guy owns it. haha.
i worked at a cemetery and we had one of these for a work truck, 84 i think. it was such a beater, unfortunantly it was an auto. fun to drive but unfortunatly it didn't last the summer
Just wanted to say nice truck, I have an 85 V8 with a 360 automatic. Fairly similar but I have the oil gauge and temp gauge. Mine is white and red and red interior. Sad thing is the doors are starting to show their age and haven't been latching. Other than that it isn't running half bad. Just rolled 70k 2 weeks ago
Yeah, I just spray oil in there and hope it doesn't get worse. I liked the ramchargers too, I actually saw a mint 2WD 1991-93 ramcharger in front of a car radio shop the other day.
So it has an ammeter but no temperature gauge? That's a little odd. No dash vents either... this must be pretty much a base model, except for the 4WD and nice radio.
Its about as base as base can get. There is no oil pressure gauge either, just a warning lamp, same for the temp. That nice radio was out of an old 84 Dodge Daytona, it originally came with no radio at all. The radio gets AM stereo, but one of the display dials is burned out. It also has the split rear window, thats the only factory option.
I used to work at a place that used one of these as a shop truck. It was beat up badly but had something like 350K miles on it and still had plenty of life left in it. The new ones are nice but these old ones are indestructible.
It might have the Cummins diesel in it, those are indestructible. They'll do 500,000 miles easily. And yeah, I see a lot more old Dodges out here than I do Chevys and Fords.
@LittleJohnEnterprise the first one on the left is emergency brake I think.
