I'm not sure if this is the best place to put it, but I would like to show you guys my D150, and maybe get some opinions on what I should do next to it.

Background info: I am 18 at the moment, and this is my first vehicle. I got it when I turned 15, and it has came a long way.



This is the truck when I got it over 3 years ago. I got it for $2,200 with 51,000 original miles on its Fuel Injected 318. It was well maintained, oil changed every 2,500 miles, etc., and was a work truck for a California college. Never seen mud, no rust, beautiful. I don't have any pictures of it, but it had that tan interior.

First, the rack and toolbox came off.


Next thing I did was the interior. I could not stand that torn up bench seat and the bright tan panels and dash.



Then, the stock wheels had to go. I was going to find some nice 18s for it, but I thought I would test something else out. I have never seen a D150 with 20s.


This picture is July of 2010.


I put some beats in my truck. Just some tiny walmart Pioneers. I was going for sound quality for cheap. Built me a box and put these in.


I actually won 1st place in a stereo comp. with these, believe it or not. Everyone in my class went over the power limit. :P

In May of 2011, I put some fresh paint on it. Atwoods tractor paint, and me and my dad did it myself. Still looking good to this day, but I am planning on putting some better paint eventually.





Don't mind the big tires, I got them for $100 mounted and balanced.

On came a roll pan.




Started to clean up the grill, make it different. I decided to do the new Mopar Charger theme.

And how she looks right now.

 

Nice work. Looks like my 1982 D350. My suggestion is not to sink too much money too fast into it. Keep it safe and keep it preserved. The fancy stuff can wait.

 

looks good. what are your plans for it. i just thought i would point out that it is not fuel injected. it should be Throttle body injection which is similar but different.

 

The fuel is injected, just at a different place. Throttle body instead of the manifold.

 

Yeah. I knew what the difference is, just a lot of my friends don't, so I just say fuel injection, haha. I'm gonna do a little bit of engine work and mainly focus on getting the dents and stuff out. Once I get a daily driver, I will start to do hardcore work and make it strictly a Sunday driver and show truck.

 

you should maybe keep your eyes open for a magnum engine and the parts you will need to make it work. got one in the ramcharger and it is nice. noticeable power difference. i would not put to much into the current engine unless you plan on converting it to carb since you can't do much with the older computers.

 

I thought about going magnum. I am still looking into it, but I don't know how long it will be until I get around to it.
