Hi, everyone. I'm new to the forum. Live in Birch Bay, WA.
Just over a month ago I picked up an '86 Power Ram 250, 4x4. Most likely sitting on only 121k miles! Given by the condition of the truck. It has had a few owners but definitely has been garaged most it's life. I got it into a reputable shop and dropped just over $4k in critical repairs to get it road worthy. However, now i have little things that need attention soon. Like getting the HVAC to work correctly. Defog doesn't blow air up windshield and will need that for the winter. Seems windshield washer reservoir and pump were taken out of truck. So, need to find a replacement. Tubing is there, though.

Overall, I'm really excited about this truck and doing the little fixes here and there. But want to find a shop familiar with these classics for doing the bigger repairs. Want to keep it fairly stock but willing to make little changes here and there.

These aren't the best pics, but give a decent look at it.

Awesome shape for it's age. Welcome to DF!

Check out LMC truck, see if they have the bits and pieces you need. Any question you may have, post in the 1st Gen Ram section. Folks there will happily help you out. (and help you spend your money too. )

I am on the other side of the continent from you, so, no clue about a shop for ya.
