Default Ram in Vanuatu

Hey all, I found a 1990 dodge ram on the island here and I want to buy it. The question is how hard is it to get parts sent over here? Its in pretty good condition, i haven't had a ram before, it's auto looks like a small block. The water pump looks like it leaks, it needs new front rotors, pads, ect. It just needs some love as it's been sleeping for a while with not much use. Has anyone got advice on the ram and the parts?
Not much is available in Vanuatu. Thanks.

rockauto.com.... almost everything you could ever need is there.. its probably a 318... water pump IS probably leaking just like my 87 decided to have a fit again this week... my water pump leaks coolant faster than I can put it in

Thanks for that. I will have a look. I have a feeling that the truck would be a good tuff reliable truck if I get it back going. Plus I like the look. Anything else I should be cautious of?
