      this old beast has been in the family since new, has been beat on ran dry on oil at least 3 times and as been neglected. now its in my hands and im 26 now, i still remember picking out on the lot when i was 5. thats when i got in to cars…well the big ones anyway (99 cent hot wheels)

      -no ABS-
      -no traction control-
      -no rear drums- (that i can feel)
      -rust- (lots)
      -no park brake-

      as you can see its in BAD shape rust wise but under the hood still good. once in a blue moon ill get a check engine light then its gone. burns next to no, leaks it more than it burns.

      The thing is should i keep it, junk it, or drive it into the grave?

        From the brief video, looks like some body work is needed, I’d look at it as a project truck and work on it if the engine still runs and the transmission is good. How much do you enjoy this truck is the big question for you.

        Should you decide to put her back together, good luck, the 2nd gen Rams are nice trucks.

        to get an idea of what to do on the truck bed check out this video.

          yeah, ive seen that, if im honest the body looks much worse that it is, ill get some vids on that later. im just not sure ether to mod it, fix it, or just keep it alive. i know i should just junk it. since the aftermarket isn’t there for it and i cant fab.
