1985 Dodge Ram D150 Revival! A Mopar sitting for 5+ years!

[@thelastrebelshow1627]

I’ve had my 1990 D 150 33 years and it doesn’t have a dent in it. It’s clean as it get however I did repaint it. Satin black. I’m keeping it till I die so I’m not worried about it not being original paint besides, it looks great. I’m 63 had it more than half my life. Guess I should do a video. 🤘

[@southernrevivalautomotive]

do it! thank you for the feedback.

[@farmerandsonsgarage6883]

Love the two tone blue. Nice find!!

[@southernrevivalautomotive]

Thanks!

[@geoffreyb3337]

What a sweet truck

[@southernrevivalautomotive]

It is a unit. Loved it

[@Lane-jq3ed]

My first truck was 85 long bed 318... Freaking loved that rig🙌

[@southernrevivalautomotive]

@@Lane-jq3ed you had a much cooler first truck than me. That is awesome!

[@cowthedestroyer]

ive got that same bed on my shorty 80. idk why but it just looks so good

[@southernrevivalautomotive]

@@cowthedestroyer It’s a great bed.

[@TeaMollie11]

This is the closest I can find to my truck, a 1985 Royal se prospector long bed d250, but the colors are inverted on mine. I haven't found any others with the blues inverted like mine. Mine is beat to hell though, only one body panel is undented, rust all over, holes, you name it.

[@southernrevivalautomotive]

Pretty color combos . Must of been the Royal SE options.

[@TeaMollie11]

@@southernrevivalautomotive Guess so, no clue why mine has the blues switched, but I like it anyways

[@MidnightPolaris800]

I had a 89 ramcharger with this combo. Light silver in center and dark blue on top and bottom...was a gorgeous 4x4

[@josephnunnally8734]

Loce those trucks i have an 86 d150 royal se

[@boronin10]

Pretty decent ol truck.

[@southernrevivalautomotive]

Absolutely. Really liked the 2 tone and the short bed

[@ScottHolloway-wp2cx]

Nice looking truck

[@jedk9523]

I had a 87 w250 that looked just like this, except when I got it it was wrecked so I had a front clip from a 79 d100 on it. It looked kind of offkey but it sure turned a lot of heads.

[@southernrevivalautomotive]

That is Awesome! I really love the older front ends. Keeping an eye out for the old school RamCharger.

[@chelosauthentic]

Nice

[@southernrevivalautomotive]

@@chelosauthentic Thank you.

I thought you were going to go Kool-Aid man through the bricks 🧱🧱🧱... oh yeah!!!

[@southernrevivalautomotive]

The only thing that stopped it was the low ground by the concrete! Sketchy for sure

[@JeronWhite]

Nice truck

thank you

[@markblackburn8685]

Great looking old truck are you doing any follow up videos on it?

[@southernrevivalautomotive]

Unfortunately no

[@thomasisherwood9756]

Reselling or keeping it, nice looking 👀 truck 😊, sorry video is a year old.

Engine size is stamped on the side of the block, right below exhaust manifold. Drivers side

[@southernrevivalautomotive]

Good to know. If another comes up that needs saving. Will make sure to look for it and point that out. Thank you!

[@LazrSWGOH]

I don’t know why but mine has a V8 badge on the front fender and I can’t seem to find any other ones that have the V8 Engine badge

[@transitpassenger3948]

22:49 Is that a Ford in your garage? When the repair is over, it will be interesting to look at this Monster! )

[@southernrevivalautomotive]

Hoping to have that Yellow truck done soon!!!

Which is better from start

[@trentdawg2832]

My mother had an ‘83 just like this…same color scheme and all,even the same aftermarket rims…i dont think it was a prospector though

[@southernrevivalautomotive]

She had great taste. A sweet color combo, beats anything these days.

[@enjoythesho1992]

1st gens dont have the dash problems like 2nd gens do

[@Zestypanda]

Pretty sure it’s because the dash isn’t plastic

[@southernrevivalautomotive]

I just crack jokes at dodge dashs

[@enjoythesho1992]

@@Zestypanda 1st gen dash is plastic

[@enjoythesho1992]

Yeah I'm very much aware I own 3 all still have original dashboards they are made of better plastic than 2nd gens I've personally never seen a 1st gen with a bad dash

[@stevegood3979]

selling?

[@southernrevivalautomotive]

It is getting restored

[@stoneseaich3469]

what is the numbers on the dash (7168) for with Mph underneath it?

[@southernrevivalautomotive]

I think junkyard inventory number

[@robertreadshaw7640]

I'm bettin its got more then 93k miles on it. I have the same year Prospector and I can tell you for certain its got 300k on the original motor.

[@southernrevivalautomotive]

Likely. Never know. Some are better taken care of than others. Mostly look for rust free and straight body’s.
