Very nice cars.
I have a 92 D250 rear wheel drive Dodge Truck with the 360 in it. The truck is getting pretty rough around the edges. It would not start the last time I tried, late summer last year. I think the ignition trigger might be the issue. I need to get it running. A lot easier to sell if it actually runs.
Located where? I have some nice doors and fenders in the shed for those trucks
The only thing I didn't like about 91-93 was that they had the most hideous looking grille of the bunch... Of those trucks I liked the looks of 86-90 the best but didn't mind the 81-85.
I'm actually wondering if I could somehow make one out of a 72-73 fit my 85... If you remember the TV show "emergency" that was what squad 51 was..... I do have a 72-78 "bird bath" hood here for my truck and all that is needed to make it look like it came that way...
I need to get going on the body work on mine.
Pass side rocker (smashed not rotten)
Back wheel arches (they're not really bad, I see 30 years newer trucks around here that are worse rotten) I actually have a pair of rust free full bedsides for the 80s-93 trucks.
Originals cut off an 88 down in Georgia. Not Chinese reproductions. The originals on the truck now, are more crinkled than rusted.
Debating whether I want to put them onto mine or fix what's there.
Passenger side door again crinkled and since I have at least 3 straight rust free ones it's easier to just swap....
The PO was so blind that he'd find a way to scrape the side of an empty airplane hanger pulling it in/backing out...
Mine is just a slant 6 that will stay at least for now. I rebuilt it completely, and did a ton of extra work on it... Shaved block and head 0.100" between them (yeah almost 1/8") oversized valves, ported the head, sent the cam out and had it reground, etc.
Problem now is trying to decide which trans to run..the original 3spd auto works great, just leaks/ should have the parts here for that.
But I also have a 4 SPD auto with the adapter from /6 to small block that is needed to use that... AND I have a 4 speed overdrive "stick" sitting here too with everything else needed to do that swap.... What to do... There was a day that I wanted nothing to do with anything that had an automatic trans in..... Everything I had was stick. The only thing keeping me from jumping on that idea is all the knee pain I have had lately. Even though it's not the "clutch leg" that's been hurting....
