Default Got a ram off craigslist today

So i found a sweet deal on a 1996 dodge ram 1500 sport 4x4 5.9. Rebuilt motor, rebuilt front end, new tires and rims, body is all decked out with hood scoops, rumble bee decals, visors, new cd player, bed rails and freshly inspected. It needed a tranny so i got it for 750. the next day i had tranny rebuilt. All it needs now is a tune up and it has a leak in the exhaust manifold, so im getting headers for it.

I'll take the flame grill! Not even kidding haha

Nice truck, I had a Racerback for mine but ended up trading it before I put it on for rollbar lights after I picked up my rollbar

edit: just noticed your scoops are on backwards... I saw a ranger with them on that way once and it just doesn't look right :/
