1987 Dodge Other Pickups Power Ram

Very clean, low mile adult owned Dodge Power Ram 50 4x4. I spent 6 months looking on the west coast for the cleanest Ram 50 4wd to buy, and this was the one I found in 2021. And nothing cleaner has been on the market since. The history of the pickup is that it spent most it’s life in Oregon, owned by an artist up until her passing away. Used it for hauling pottery, apparently. Previous owner was retired guy who bought as a COVID side project. He did the spray bedliner treatment, changed master cylinder, front calipers, front brake hoses, wheel cylinders and had the BFG installed. Retired guy decided to sell as he needed something larger, and I was lucky to be first caller on it. Cold Start VIDEO (copy & paste to your browser): youtu.be/OegSyp4opj8
I drove it from Salem to home in Seattle starting the trip at 99,9xx miles on the odometer and getting 25mpg. The car is in magnificent condition, for its age. Paint shines up very nice. No significant body damage – typical dings & scratches found on a pickup from 1987. Also typical from 1987 is the heavy oxidation on roof and hood – a real shame as the rest of the paint is gorgeous. No signs of structural rust. Interior is perfect except for a ~2-inch rip on the side of driver seat. Pics in listing are showing the worst damage.Although this truck ran perfect without issues, my son and I proceeded to do a ton of preventative maintenance for the fun and (his) experience. Below is a list of the work completed. None of this work was necessary except the front and rear brake lining changes and the front rotor replacement (they were originals). We will scan all the parts receipts available and post later. Since doing the bulk of the following work, have put about 500 miles on it. This truck has no practical purpose for me except it being a trophy of finding the long sought unicorn clean Ram 50 4wd.
