had an 87 exactly t like this one bought it for 7800 brand new. same engine and tranny. sold it 15 yrs later with 192000. still ran fine. regretted selling. no rust or rot. good trucks. thats when it was still made by chrysler

All old Dodges sound the same when they crank over.

I love the LS. But a Small Block Chevy 350, would fit a truck like this perfectly.

The tin worms have been busy, I see...

I know what’s wrong with it, it ain’t got no gas in it

Crispy

Definitely some wrong chris

What muffler you got?? I love the sound of that 350

Gotta love slant 6....leaning tower of power.

In Mass. they totally rot out undeneathe.

Scotty Kilmer had a 2007 Impala, with more than 540,000 miles and it still runs.

Keep it don’t get a rid of it

Seems like a dirty carburerator if thats how u speel carb go old skool dodge fu@$ yeah christopher

That truck was part of my childhood gotta get her rehabilitated the italians never even ran that much harder than idle speed

Things ICONIC CHRISTOPHER!

TF 904 three speed auto.

Id spend a few bucks fixer up and sell her be good for a kids first

*Did you forget you need to pump the pedal about 10-15 times to get fuel to the carb, or are you spoiled by FI lol, Otherwise, Smooth runner.*

Do u plan on keeping the truck

Oh, and a big thanks for once again giving us a great start-up video! I love wondering if it'll be a success or fail...

I realize that, at the time of the introduction of seat belt laws in the early 1970's, to get the driver's attention, all automakers had obnoxious buzzers installed to ensure you didn't ignore the seat belts. It was a tough sell, but obnoxious buzzers worked, finally giving way to more pleasant chimes. Dodge, however, had one buzz for the key in with the door open, and a second slightly detuned buzzer for seat belts. The two of them together are perhaps the most obnoxious sound pairing ever to intentionally come from a vehicle. And they still buzz just as loud and proud as the day this beauty came off the assembly line.

Beautiful dodge ram

👍

I had a kinky slant six, one of the cyls. was tied up.

its good

Always loved those old square body dodges. Can't beat the old leaning tower of power ❤

leaning tower of power

Nice to hear the original gear reduction starter kick ol’ Slanty into life. A little tune up, some brake work, a clean up, & you’ve got a good daily driver. It lives up to the old saying, “Ya Can’t Kill A Slant”

I don't know what the car dash looks good and it runs damn good and you all are real dumb ass for what y'all do and y'all didn't start this s*** until Cash for Clunkers then when y'all started getting the so-called Clunkers the junk yards were ordered by the government to destroy the vehicles they're trying to push electric vehicles on everybody would have been a great farts car headlights tail lights fenders Hood glass interior headlight

Man y'all some stupid SOB's turn it up perfectly good Vehicles song could be fixed with the little cosmetics song with the little interior or small mechanic work mechanic work

I'd drive that proudly!

I've been looking for an 80's model Dodge pickup something I can repair without all of the unnecessary stuff that comes on new trucks nowadays. I wish I still had my 1982 Dodge pickup it was a good truck

hay brother from another mother glad your still kicking and making videos of ordinary work days and life and i will see you on the street's ha ha 🤨

Where did you get the sweet flatdeck chev?

That shift knob was first used in 1985, my Aries had that shift lever.

Oh no, not the precious antique! :p

Dodge treasure? More like, dodge trash! Only struggle it needs is a long hard haul up the hill ;D

👍

👍

👍

Someone junked it? FR? wow that is a good rig Great for the upcoming struggle.

If the engine fires off with some flammable liquid in the carb, and if it has a title someone would snatch that up for a decent price AS-IS. That would make a nice daily patina cruiser with a little love.

Cuda Fry, (another video), would love this Mopar.

Gimme gimme’s

*Sell it, too bad she is not a 318 or 360*

Mint

Are u junking that one pr can that be sold with a title chris😊

The footage corrupted in a couple spots but nice videos I would have just kept that bus and restored it to its former glory

going to need alot for that 1
