1989 Dodge Ramcharger LE 4X4 Description
So here is the history. I bought this vehicle from and 18 year old kid that couldn't get it running. It had the carb that had the less than reliable computer controlled actuator. He had painted the truck lime green and it was hideous. I towed it home. It was in really good shape so i thought i would restore it to be a fun daily driver. Well the short story is i have sunk so much more money in this vehicle than it will ever be worth. I have a laundry list that still needs to be done. The entire interior needs to be done. I would like to put rubber splash shields in the engine compartment. I would like to raise the rear another 1" to level it, even though i just put a lift kit on it. I got rid of the computer and went back to a carb distributer setup. I had the engine professionally installed. I threw a cheap paint job on it just so i didn't have to stare at lime green while I worked on it. I have had this project for two years and have 0 miles of actual road time on it. I have trailered it to shop after shop. It was licensed at first but it never was insured so I didn't feel comfortable driving it to have various shops work on it. It still has the break in oil from when the engine got installed last october. So i bought new headers for i, thought i would get all "fancy" bought exhaust paint and tried to get a flame look... EPIC Fail... They will need to be pulled and resprayed. I am done spending money on this...I did put up a video online 1989 dodge ramcharger if you want to see it... My first video online be kind.......New kickdown cable, had to take it to a shop and have it set properly. This is a great project for a father son to finish out. Fires up so easily, Drive, shifts great. Needs finish touches and someone to take it to the finish line.. That someone is just not me... I will be lucky to get 1/2 what i soaked into this.....Any ? let me know i will work with your shipping company. If your local come by and look at it in person.... GOOD LUCK.....

There is a small crack dead center in the front windowPassenger front turn signal is missing lens. I am search of i, ,, i just replaced it and it must have not been snapped in all the way.Windshield wipers are included, i was going to replace front window and just never reinstalled themPaint job is decent enough while the project is finished out.There is no undercoating from the factor, i was going to get it sprayed professionallyRust appears to be minimal and more surface on the undercarriage I tried taking a pic to show how nice it isCruise control doesn't worklights and turn signals all work finepower windows both workheater works greatNO A/Cmechanic tried talking me into a serpentine belt system but that was $1200,,, i will let new owner decidepop up hatch in rear works fine
I want no surprises to the new owner, the hard work is done, Reliability is not an issue but you can literally spend a fortune taking this to the next level...I got a quote for $8000 for an entire new interio, das, guage cluster, door panels, seats, carpet, headliner, resprayed with new color......ouch... i hope the new owner knows Sue from gas monkey
On Apr-28-19 at 19:40:45 PDT, seller added the following information:I referenced a catback exhaust, I mispoke. I had a custom 2" exhaust with magnaflow mufflers with a H crossover pipe installed to balance the pressure. Post Falls muffler installed it with dual chrome tips. I don't want any surprises and i don't want to mislead anyone. There is a picture of the H pipe on the listing. I don't know why i called it a catback...... Rookie mistake.... Thanks
