Help! 1982 Dodge Ram D150 FOR SALE...
« on: April 24, 2017, 09:20:52 pm »
I live in Portland, OR, and am wanting to sell my 1982 Dodge Ram D150, because I got my hands on a 1990 Cummins Diesel. I love the 82, but I can't keep both trucks. I've put a lot of work into and want to get a fair price. I've listed it at $3300, and even lowered it to $3100, but have had zero interest so far. I'm including the text for my ad below, plus the pics.
I'm looking for ideas on where to sell, how to sell, and what you think a fair asking price is!  ::?:

*******************************************************************************
Rebuilt engine, slant 6.
Nice interior.
See below for more info.

I have had this truck for 4 years, and we've been through a lot together. I was going to keep it and continue fixing it up, but I got my hands on a newer Dodge Ram with a diesel motor. I love this truck, and I think it will go to someone who appreciates it. I've done and had lots of work done to it. It is reliable now, though it will surely need continued work due to its age. It drives really well.
The interior is in great shape, and there's lots of room. The seat is vinyl, and all the interior parts that were missing or broken I pulled off of other old Dodge trucks and replaced.
The exterior is less pretty, but I think that's part of its charm.
The camper shell is only 2 years old and has no leaks.
I do not know the mileage of the rebuilt engine, but it's been doing fine for the 2 years it's been in.


Rebuilt engine (slant 6), don't know mileage
Two barrel carburetor, rebuilt (stock was single barrel)
New catalytic converter 3 months ago
New muffler run 3 months ago
Passed DEQ with flying colors, good till Dec 2018
Alternator and alternator regulator within the last year
Battery 1 year old
Starter 2.5 yrs old
Heater core replaced 2 years ago
New radiator 2 years ago
And all sorts of other little work...

Tires are in good condition, regular rotations
Front bearings repacked this month
Breaks are in decent shape, front may need new in 3-6 months
Rear brakes done 1.5 yrs ago.

Windshield wiper motor replaced this month
Reupholstered bench seat (4 years ago)
Interior in great condition
Camper shell 2 years old

Some dents
Rear bumper is a little wonky, but it's doing its job.
Fading paint job, areas on the hood started getting a little rusty this winter, so cleaned them up and covered areas with Rustoleum. Will want some attention again next winter, or a new paint job.

Thanks. Someone just told me there are a buttload of Dodge pages, full of beautiful trucks, on Facebook. I didn't know that! Thank you!
