Get Backwoods to help you cut the roof off......

Seriously, it does look pretty damn good, especially considering its age!

that look like a nice ramcharger. if i had found something like that locally i would have showed up with cash in hand. i don't how your old lady could turn it down. a ramcharger make a bit better family vehicle than a truck. kids seem to like looking out those large windows or at least my niece and nephew do.

Nice! And it's not riddled with rust like everything else up in your part of the country. For that price how could you say no? I would love an 80's ramcharger for a daily, or a 70's for a wheeler/cruiser.

That is a nice ram charger, I've always wanted one myself. And the discussion about the timing chain, my gpas 87 ram with a 318 blew the timing chain on the interstate and bent 8 push rods and 4 valves.

There was something more than the timing chain. My 78 D200 had the timing chain break carrying about 12,000 # of firewood up a 7% grade and there was no damage to anything else at all.
