    Hi! I'm from connecticut. I'm willing
    to trade a big dodge pickup for an old buick to drop my 455 into. My truck is an 85 with a 360. Lifted with new 33's. Needs body work. I'm looking for good body and frame. Don't care about motor or trans.
    Thanks,
    Will

    I will be going to take some picks with in a few days. Just some info on this. It's a 1985 Dodge power ram w150. Has a 360, 3 inch lift. , holly flowtech headers, 33 inch tires that have never seen the road or mud. It IS a project. Lots replaced under the truck. I stopped at body work. I just can't use this truck for a family project.

    Hi Eric. Nice to know a name haha. Sounds like a lot it done. I hope when I send my pics of the dodge that it doesn't fail in comparison .. I. Am not worried about no motor. I have a 455 on the engine stand waiting for a good home. I want to build me a torque monster for around town. (Show the zip splat cars what real noise is). 455 is punched 30 over raised intake and so on. Completely fresh. Not even started after rebuild. In other words the heart needs a body.:)

    My engine was about 500+HP 530 Torque ESTIMATED.. What kind of shape is the engine and transmission on the dodge is it stock or mild ? are the Diffs rebuilt ? Does it drive ? what state is the interior in...Just general questions If the body is really bad I may pass

    Motor is stock for most part. Headers and carb. Interior is well used lol. Being a dodge it was used for work and play haha. Not by me though. I dragged it in on a trailer not mobile.. went to work on it right away. Put a 3 inch lift. Pulled the front and rear end out and put the front end and rear end fron from a 1989 in it. Wanted to eliminate the auto locking hubs. I've seen them give out on other trucks and seen them burn up too. New bearings and manual hub assemblies. New ball joints brakes drums rotors. 33 inch procomp tires that still have the stickers on the tread. American racing rims. Trans is good but its a 727 so I was gonna replace with heavier equipment. Body needs some help. Pics will tell all. . I'm gonna actually video it all. I don't want to waste your time. I'm gonna point out EVERYTHING that needs doing. That's easier than bullcrap. You will no weather you want it or not. Thanks eric. Have a good one.
