I took the battery out if my ram, put it in the Power Wagon, sprayed starter fluid down the carb, and it started 2nd crank. And idled. And I drove it down the street. It's been sitting since Christmas. What a great engine.
I wish my project truck was a W200.....
Nice rigs, man.
What does your D100 have in it?


*EDIT*

Found why Lemon Drop's air was pushing hot air rather than warm air: the bypass valve for the heater core was stuck open. So it was acting as if the heat was on all the time. Shoved it shut and BOOM! Warm air now.

Took my stock chrome mirrors off and put on a nice set of black plastic mirrors. Nothing special, but I think it looks better.

Both trucks have 318's, but there's a 727 (that has major issues) in the 1/2 ton. Your project rig could be my W200 for $3000 (without the bumper...) If anyone wants it, PM me.

But, I thought you loved your W200?
:P

Prolly too rusty, and it's in WA.....I kinda live in Texas.

My project has a 440 and a 727, great combo me thinks.


Bought a Thrush Turbo muffler, tried to install it....need a torch.
So Imma take it to a shop, likely Meineke if they won't charge me an arm, a leg, and one of my cats....

Bought a divorced NP205, 2 small block 727's (1 short and one long snout), a Dana 60 rear, and a closed knuckle drum brake 8-lug dana 44 yesterday. All in working condition. Paid $50. Not really Ram related, but I wanted to tell everyone


Today I am trying to figure out how to get the bumper off my Power Wagon so that I can grind and repaint parts of it, and put it on my Ram. I have no engine hoist, and the thing is not light. Again, the '72 Power Wagon is FOR SALE! PM me...

Why'd you buy all the awesome stuff for a 72 when you're going to be selling your's?

And to be honest, I don't think that bumper would look too swift on your 95...just sayin'.

All that stuff is already under my '72, except I have an open knuckle 44 (which is better) and an np435 (which is also better). All of it but the long snout 727 came from a 60's power wagon. The same truck my wheels and tires on my '72 (the ones in the sig pic) came from. I bought it cuz it was going to scrap otherwise, and it was a no brainer at $50.

I think your brush guard looks, uh, "not too swift" on your ram, so i guess it's a good thing yours is yours, and mine is mine

I understand that. I am just saying it doesn't look like it would match the body style well.
But like you said, mine is mine and yours is yours.

It's a shame I'm broke and that the Wagon is so far away, might make a good snow truck....
