1965 Dodge Ram 1500

Rare 1965 short wide box Dodge pickup. Lots of long wide and step sides made but very few short wide. I have owned this truck for almost 34 years. Best vehicle I have ever owned! It has been completely gone through since I've owned it. Motor was completely rebuilt about 25,000 ago. Transmission and rearend has been rebuilt including axle bearings.Driveline has been balanced and new u-joints. Leaf springs front and rear have been re-arched and a new leaf added to each. Front straight axle has new king pins and bearings. Brakes and cylinders and drums have been replaced.

Mechanically excellent. You could drive coast to coast with no worries. Needs cosmetics. Paint inside and out. Seat redone. Some floor board work on drivers side. Has some rust but very little for a 51 year old truck. I have over a thousand dollars worth of spare parts. Almost pristine chrome grill, lmost pristine raised letter tailgate, hrome trim for drip rail, ll emblems and letters for hood and fenders. Too many parts to list here. I've gotten old and have health problems and no longer able to properly care for the old girl. Want it to go to a good home and be well cared for. Weather and lighting was not the greatest that day for the pictures. Have pictures of how it looked in 1989 when I had it painted. Can send upon request.
