Default Fixed IMG tags

Just got this yesterday as my first car from an auction. its not running at the moment and we havent figured out why. Body is solid, and theres little to no rust. 2WD, 3.9L magnum V6. Its a 96. Also, the oil dipstick is really long for some reason, and it wont come out. I was wondering if anyone here could help me figure out what the heck is up with that.

Cool! Not many have the body kit. If I remember right it is called the Mark III. Also I edited your pictures by fixing the IMG tags.

As for starting it could be anything. The most common problem is the power splices just below the relay box under the hood. For details and pics check out the FAQ in this section. As for the dip stick it may be bent on the inside or the the flange is bent. It shouldn't be to hard to replace it.

If you got more Tech questions ask in a new thread.
