That is just like my first truck. Mine was red and silver. Loved that truck until the short shaft on the front axle went pop.

I would suggest frame reinforcement as one of the upgrades. That truck's engine has enough torque to bend the frame, I found out the hard way! When Dodge redesigned the truck in 94 the Cummins equipped trucks all received a new redesigned frame to handle the engine and the engine was detuned a bit. I am surprised that truck lasted 22 years without frame damage. Good luck on the build.

Awesome truck.  Pretty good deal too.

Deffinetly one of the truck on my bucket list to own. I'm a heavily biased Mopar guy and currently drive a 2005 ram with a Hemi. Hopefully when my wallet allows for a new toy it'll be either a first gen cummins like this, or a Warlock.

It's a toss up between orginal & total black out!

My 1993 Ram Chargers SUV is "black", and I say "black" because 99% of the time it´s some shade of grey. Black is a beautiful color when clean but it only last clean like a day.

Robert the truck is originally from Riverside Cali, my son is only the third owner.

I have a friend who owns Hurricane Off Road who will do a 2" lift, suspension, & stacks!

:Idea3: I'm seeing red. Throw a stepside bed with finished wood inlays and finished wood stakes. It will be the only extended cab Lil Red Express

There was a truck like this too at some local mud runs. It' was painted General Lee orange. Looked freaking awesome with blacked out wheels and heat blacked stacks!
