Cool took better pics today

Click to enlarge! it was a nice sunny day, so I thought I would get some better pics to show the true condition of it...You can see it's a daily driver, some bruises, and scrapes.. Not too much to fix up though, I have some rhino coat I'm going to put in the bed, was gunna use it on my 70 F100 I was restoring, but it was stolen.. So it goes to the Dodge now..I have a light bar/roll bar that I'm going to install, and lights, and I'm going to put some fog lights in the bumper since there aren't any now... Hope to have the tranny fixed by the end of the week!

148,000 But I plan on slowly rebuilding the motor over the next couple summers... Heads this summer... and maybe some intake changes..I dunno... I may just run it like it is for a couple years and do it later, depends on how my wife is doing medically..

Plow truck can't touch this! haha.. Seriously though, that is the alley behind my place, and the donatos pizza there gets plowed, but they always take care of me because I take care of their alarm..

yeah, the interior really sold me on it... that and the underbody.. I could tell by looking at it, it wasn't abused.. it's in pretty good shape overall.. The interior is nice.. I tried to show the crack in the dash though.. It's there.. They ALL crack dang it.. haha...

I can't wait to get that thing running though.. I am so excited, like a kid at christmas...

I guess the plow would have to deal with the pole first anyway. I was just thinking about when he goes by and throws it all over.

naa.. The plow guy cleans the area around my garage first, then clears the lot.. since it's a private lot and alley way, the city never does go down it..

You know when your truck was built? Because most, if not all, dash cracks are on the 2001's from what I've seen here. I'm curious to know if it was built late in 2000. I have a theory that I have posted before. And actually to be honest, If my theory holds true , a good majority of the probs here are 2001's.
