This is my 1986 Dodge Ram D-150. It's been lowered 6" in the front and 5" in the rear.

It currently sport's a '71 HiPo 225 Slant 6. .435 Lunati Cam. 360 Magnum valves and valve springs. Head has been shaved down and ported, intake has as well. Harland Sharp custom roller rockers. 4 speed on the floor with a twin disk mcleod clutch. Solid aluminum driveshaft. 9 1/4" rear end with 3.70:1 gear's and 1 1/8" front/rear sway bar. Has all manual gauges molded into the stock dash housing. They sit right behind the glass and look stock.

The truck has came a hella long way since I got. When I picked it up ($300) the grill was broken. Wiring was a mess and was just overall in shitty condition.

Future plan's after tax time, it's going under the knife and getting a moon roof, painted triple black, raising the front back up a couple inches in preperation for the 360, getting my CalTracs installed and boomtube exhaust.


RamStrat, That Dodge you were in last night was beautiful. Thank's for referring me to the site!!!

Sounds like a very nice truck you have! Nice; don't see many of those around!

Welcome!!!!

It was funny, I parked over there last night, met my girl up there for dinner, came out and out of all the spots to park in, there was this black truck sitting right next to mine..... Once I got up on it i was like, "Oh its ok...its another Dodge"

Then I started to look it over...."Under Construction"....figured I would tag ya!!!

Ask not paid 4 to post a cartoon of what to do when you can't get it up anymore.Lifted is just as good as lowered depends where you are at what you do with it and your likes i've had lifted don't have any use for them any more,
And i'm old so we go low.

You guy's are awesome! Lol

I haven't seen many of these truck's around. Awesome thing about mine is it's an orinial FLA truck and rust free.

I put the super six in it because the 318 didn't impress me. Now i'm fully impressed. Plus my Dart got a new powerplant that's in the work's outta' the 318.

RamStrat, did you realize your bed sit's 3" higher than my roof?

We need to get a little truck meet going on or something! Go and get some beer's or something.

From last night... I wish your truck was higher so I can park my bed under it and do a small photoshoot.

Im a photographer btw guy's... Turbo Dakota pic's coming soon :naughty:

Well these are HDR pictures....

You need to have 3 shots of the same picture...one over exposed, one under exposed and one normal...

Or need to have a camera that can do RAW HDR...
