Can I Drive this DISASSEMBLED Dodge Home? Ramcharger Revival

ladies and gentlemen welcome to another unnecessarily but hopefully iconically ambitious episode of junkyard digs today we're going to be seeing if i can drive this 1986 dodge ram charger one hour home now those of you who are quite observant will notice that it's missing one or two pieces so i'm going to put this back together attempt to drive it one hour home to our shop in two days by myself apparently i lied i'm not alone this i swear to god there's a dog here just a second ago i'm seeing things okay well okay so the back story on why the hell i'm here right now a week ago a cummins on a chassis was posted and i came and picked it up for you know you never know when you needed 12 valve cummins that's cheap and the guy said do you want a 318 as well you can have it i'm moving it needs to go away who knows when you need a 318 core yeah see i'm not lying there's a dog hey puffer oh good boy down down oh my god anyway right as i was leaving i was like oh wait let me see that 318. he's like it's over here it's still on this chassis if you want you can have the whole chassis pretty decent looking frame like there's there's still paint on the whole front two thirds of this frame and then even here in the back where the only little bit of surface rust really is there's still paint poking through i'm like you don't find mopar frames in this condition of course i said yeah i'm interested in that but where's the rest of the truck this thing looks like it might have been a low mile chassis at which point i come inside and see this surprisingly mint 86 ram charger so i asked him i said what are you gonna do with this he goes oh i don't know it's got to go it's in my way i'm probably gonna scrap it you guys know me i can't let that happen so i say can i have the body as well he goes dude you can have the whole thing if you get out of my way even comes with a title so that's the story of why i'm here today and why i'm going to be taking on this likely and possibly large task single-handedly because everyone else is busy or gone it is currently monday at 10 a.m thursday at 8 a.m i fly out to north carolina to hang out with the cars and cameras guys again for another backyard go-kart race which means i have exactly three days and one of those i need to pack and get everything situated before i leave so i essentially have two days to get this truck back together and drive it back to our shop i don't want to do this it's going to be hell but i'm going to do it for you guys because i love you guys that much and you're that supportive of all the content we make i'm gonna just suffer and get this done all right enough talking let's take a look at this truck so the truck does have some rust a bit poking in the door there looks like the rockers are out of it behind the door and quarters need done it's already got some bondo in it there also some poking through up here so either this was a previous restoration and that's why there's bondo in it that's popping out in a few spots or this is a really low mile truck it only shows 35 on the odometer so either is an option but i don't know but yeah she's up here on wood blocks i'm gonna get to thinking about what the hell i can do to try to get that chassis back under this bolt it down and get started it is windy as hell out here today so you have to excuse me gonna be a bit of background noise i'm sure step one take this thing out and see what we got radiator support battery tray one hood hitch one inner fender radiator and shroud i see the uh hoses are still on the block so that's good ac condenser oh and an ac pump that was an ac truck kick ass inner fender and fender driver's side a pristine grill man this thing's in good shape passenger quantity one unit each fender and a body i think my plan is to move these out take the center supports out bring the frame in on casters roll it right under set it down it's gonna be a lot easier said than done but i wonder if i can leverage one corner off no oh [Music] that might is in handy that should be wide enough there are chassis can go right underneath i might have to raise it up to clear a couple spots but this is a start [Music] okay there's a sunbitch inside oh yeah this cocker is terrible [Applause] why [Applause] all right this is john this is giving us the truck how you doing you said this sat for 20 years before you got it i believe so man i was a little kid driving by that house and seen that korean purpose in there for a long time all right well i'm gonna put it back in the casters and get it under the chassis which you can already tell it's too low yeah all right so i've made some progress i've got this up a few more notches which should be just enough to clear the high end of this frame as you can tell i've taken the rear wheels off because i figured it would be safer to lower the chassis than try to raise the body anymore i don't want to go any higher than that it's already starting to sketch me out especially since i'm the only one out here while i was jostling this damn thing around trying to get this heavy sun over here i realized the gas tank still had about half a tank of fuel in it so before i put it under the chassis i'm gonna take this time to go ahead and drain that sucker out there's a little bit of chipping right here by this mount but i think i can just clean that up and rust convert it yeah it's really thin and that would be just fine the exhaust shields are still on it look look at this there's paint and not because it's covered in grease it's actually fairly clean but there's paint all the way here on these frame rails and the whole truck even the body is solid till here and then all the rust starts in the truck and on the frame that's because the rear wheels are here throwing all that salt brine up into all the cracks of the body and mopar especially was really bad at corrosion prevention up through here and down into these fills this area the rocker and fills this with a quarter and then they rust out but other than that chuck's in pretty goddamn good shape i'd say this truck is good enough to save especially since it's still got a title so we're gonna do all the work to make that happen all right we'll be back when it's time to finally put this under there [Music] [Applause] [Applause] this is going to be where the fun part starts this obviously can't go in all the way because there are supports in the back so i'm going to need to figure something out to hold the back of the truck up i'm gonna reassess and then we'll attack again okay so i have implemented the sketchiest goddamn thing i've ever done on camera don't ever ever do this ever just get a skid loader like anyone else would four by four being hoisted up by the jack and a six by six and a couple straps tied under so that this acts as a long full leveraged extension of the vehicle so i can pick it up essentially from behind the hitch because i have to get the hitch of the truck all the way out to here for all the pins to line up so here we go oh it's making a lot of noises i don't like that get this out of here we're good [Music] okay right there okay dangerous is done it falls now hopefully just falls right into place and put the nuts on let's make that happen all right so i've searched high and low and i cannot find any more body bushings for the main mounts up front we have one that's in there that some is like that tall which means i can't run none because our fenders and everything are just gonna hit like here that's not gonna work so i'm gonna try to get the back ones lined up so this thing's not just sitting in the air and then i've got an idea of what i can use for uh spacers all right the body is sitting on the rear most set of cab mounts right back here most of them are cut like all but three i think should be able to drop this down yeah like that and we'll sit on the chassis hell yeah all right so a trip to town has given us body mounts and hardware to attach said body mounts uh they're not actually body mounts i had to find something that would work the obvious answer that i'm sure everyone's already said in the comments this point is hockey pucks well there's two problems with that i don't have a drill to put a hole in the center of a hockey puck and um i'm in absolutely the middle of nowhere on top of a hill right now and besides this house i cannot see another building like there's nothing but rest assured when there is nothing there is always something nearby and that is some little family-owned hardware store so i zipped on down to said true value and grabbed ourselves the new body bounce rolls of cheap-ass electrical tape they're black they're really strong they might have a little rubbery give to them and there's already a hole in the middle you ask me that's better than a hockey putt because you can peel tape off and make it a different size so i'll stack these in there use themselves to hold them in place and then drop the body down on the frame i googled it to see if anyone had one in stock it was like upwards of 150 dollars for a bushing set for this truck you know how much i spent at true value 11.30 and they are the exact exact width of the one bushing that's still in there you can do absolutely anything if you're creative enough or dumb enough but those are like different avenues that get to the same answer so we're just gonna go with creative let's drop this on drop the other on and there it is there we have it the body has been remounted onto the frame for the first time and i think actually only a couple months but for the story i still had to do it so still a monumental moment all right now that our body is on we can go ahead and move to the fun stuff i noticed that someone took the motor mount bolts off earlier i happened to find the bucket of bolts that's for this truck which is miscellaneous hardware and i found the motor mount nuts so let me get those back on and then go ahead and go through and take inventory of all the missing hardware i think i can find it's currently four o'clock so i believe it took five hours to get that body on and there was a trip to town in there and other stuff that pops up whenever i try to do anything i don't know if we're gonna be driving this back to ames but hopefully nonetheless be driving up and down the road tomorrow afternoon the whole theatrical goal here is drive this home but the real hardline goal is make this one assembly so i don't have to do one trip to take it home and get rid of it all right so we've done all this work and all i know about this motor is that it spins over pretty easy that's it no idea if it's any good or anything so i figure it's about time i go through this electrical system and hook up whatever we need to see if we can make this thing crank so of course to make this crank we need to do some wiring and figure out what everything here is since i did not take this apart it's going to be a fun time to say the least one of these is going to be all of our headlights and stuff which i believe is this one since there's light bulbs in it this is probably relays and that looks like a voltage regulator usually the ignition module is right back there sure is so i'm just going to go ahead and hook up a bunch of freaking wires and figure this out and then i'll be back to show you what i did or did not learn or accomplish okay got a few connections hooked up i've taken a moment to realize exactly how much i grossly underestimated this project now i'm questioning my sanity but uh yeah we're gonna throw power on this and see if i die now the body does not have a ground right now we'll go turn the key and see what happens what the hell i guess it cranks and it does so indefinitely uh sounds like we have one weak cylinder there let's try that again i think the key even though i got the roll back i think the actual jabby do is all stuff because this bearing here is just just chilling so i'm assuming things are wonk okay i know it looks like nothing changed besides the fact that i took the air filter off and got a good look at the ugliest quadrant i've ever seen but i hope the brake lines up because i saw they still had fluid in here so i didn't want that to all leak out and in doing so it established a ground between the chassis and the body as you can tell things happen in here now we've got a one of this oh well yeah there we go one of that got a blower motor hell yeah we've got dash lights not wipers but there's no wipers a horn relay horns are over there in a bucket it says electric windows and they don't work damn it electric locks where that's the craziest thing i've ever seen look at this that's the switch i don't know how many of these got broke by people just smashing them down i'm gonna go ahead and hook a few more things up up here and uh see if this thing will crank and have spark all right well apparently establishing the ground was all i needed to do to make the motor stop continuously cranking so i have no idea why that did what it did but uh let's see if we got spark i can hear it sparking actually we do indeed i don't think you guys can see it but i can see spark hopping right here so now obviously the next thing we do is immediately throw some carb cleaner down his throat and see if this thing makes some noise because i've been busting ass all day and i want to see something out of it all right i've taken a floor jack and lifted the rear tires off the ground because anytime i cannot absolutely confirm that something is in park or neutral i make sure it cannot run me over and kill me because i'm not a big fan of dying key on contact yes yes she's a runner it's loud because there's no bolts on that exhaust over there one more one more why not hell yes okay time to take inventory of all the bolts i need to get and go to value one more time before they close and then probably see what i'm gonna need for parts as well maybe make them ride this run let's make it happen all right we've got some new hardware in the header here uh still need to do these but i'm not to worry about these until we get the water pump that actually spins oh oh okay that changes a few things um all right put water pump on the list got it anyway i've got new hardware and exhaust there's no gaskets because i don't have any i don't care but more importantly i have the boat tank hooked up to the fuel pump so let's go ahead and see if that thing works loosen that up so we can watch for fuel and now we will run it off the can until we see some fuel i have discovered that for whatever reason cranking it with the key inside the truck will not start the motor i have to use this jumper wire so i'm sure there's probably something hooked up wrong or blah blah [Music] all right there's fuel tighten that back down see if this carburetor works i really really doubt it it is rusty as hell as much as i dislike quadrijets i will say they are some of the toughest damn sons of i've ever seen when it comes to carburetors you can just let them sit outside in the rain like this forever and they don't care so uh accelerator pump won't work but they will run and drive pretty much just fine even in the worst of conditions all think the right pump works i don't know oh maybe this one won't work we'll see it doesn't want to idle but it does run oh trans fluids dripping that's good means the transmission might work all right well it looks like our last job for tonight is take this water pump off because we have to get a new one before we could ever make it anywhere so i'm gonna make that happen i figured that would be way more rusty inside it's just seized well i can't say i've ever seen that before pick one of these up tomorrow and hop back into it all right so yeah i'm at a good stopping point for today like i said i'm gonna move all this stuff back over here in case i need to move that badass tow truck while i'm gone but uh yeah this is the part where we paid the black and then we'll see in the morning actually you know what i got a better view for you guys to fade the black one morning and welcome back to poor decisions i'll be your host today we have lots of poor decisions to make so let's dig into it i spent the morning here off camera cleaning up all these bolt holes the best i can and cleaning the threads on said bolts for the bolt holes so those should be good to go i'm going to rtv both sides of this gasket with a nice thin layer of rtv to eat up any inconsistencies in the surface and we'll get this water pump on all right get the rest of the bolts in there and get that sucker tightened out all right a little bit of progress update i got our alternator hung that was really fun to figure out how all this bracketry went the big banana bracket goes on the bottom and then in the bottom corner of the head there's a flange that catches nice little tabs up here and a bolt and blah blah i was taking the pulley off the old water pump and suddenly it began to spin just fine although there is a lot of bearing noise so it would have needed replaced either way and it looks like it absolutely would have leaked so 30 bucks not in a leak on the way home that's fine with me the problem was that someone used some random ass bolt that was too long and it bottomed out into the base down here if you ever see a water pump that sees look for one bolt head that doesn't match now i know i would have never thought to check that before i'm gonna get some belts on here then we'll be back okay a little time has passed i realized i need to pick up one more belt but i've got some other lines and stuff all hooked up here uh something that totally skipped my mind yesterday was the fact that i never plugged any vacuum lines in so i just went through and disconnected everything to do with the evap and hvac and hooked the brake booster back up which was wide open and plugged off every missing vacuum port that i could find so let's see if this runs any better today i bet it's a world of difference if i had a guess oh almost yep all the dogs in the neighborhood are barking oh you're loose that's why i would i would scream like that too if i was loose all right i tightened the belt and put the return springs on the carburetor finally see how it do oh yeah that might help that's pretty damn good i'm very impressed by that carburetor all right so i think everything here is done it's time to put the front of the truck on definitely missing a lot of hardware and stuff but hey just trying to get it close enough to go together enough to make it most of the way home i don't know why i couldn't put this in now and start checking for leaks instead of waiting so i'm gonna do just that i haven't seen a fan yet so that's probably concerning but yeah i'm gonna get this all plumbed up and put in the face and whatnot and get some water in this thing looks like we got some weather rolling in so i'm losing a bit of my light in here but i got some water to see if this radiator leaks before i put the good stuff in well now i'll never know great damn it you could have ever foreseen this i don't think i made a single drop in the truck i can't tell if the petcock's open or i just spilled nine and a half gallons and i think nine and a half gallons is the answer huge coolant like right here between the timing cover and the block i even rtv those bolts let's see what a little more torque does i must have just forgot to torque these earlier because they were a little loose and now no more leaky leaky so crisis averted we'll keep moving forward with putting things on the truck looks like we got some rain coming good for the corn but bad for filming it's raining bats and frogs out there my camera is literally peaking the audio i got the belts on and filled everything so everything here is done i'm gonna go ahead and put the inner fenders on and then the fenders it's so damn loud and dark i don't know if i'm gonna be able to film anything but i'm gonna fire this to show that it's running i don't know if you're even gonna be able to hear this run [Music] oh i don't know if our fuel system's working kind of seems like we just ran out of gas maybe our tank is no good after all that should have pulled fuel by now that was one of the most sudden stoppages to a storm i've ever seen it was just done no more i know i learned something the other day i never knew let's say there's a 40 chance of rain in your area that does not mean that there's a 40 chance it's going to rain that means that 40 of the people in your area will see rain anyway yeah uh back to this truck let's get some fenders on it that i can see a little better unless you just lift the front to compensate i had thought about it i'm out of electrical tape i'm on the phone with dylan right now because i've had some terrible uh body gaps over there but i can't open the door putting that fender on so dylan tell everyone hi hi dylan what dylan's been struck by a train twice two trains looks like i i need to switch my uh two rolls of electrical tape to the bottom that should fix everything three trains tornado or some holy hell this is insane in other news got all my mounts correct this time i'm gonna bolt everything down and finish getting the fenders on i had a really really bad panel gap earlier that i couldn't even get the doors open and i realized that the two pieces of electrical tape need to be below the mount not above it so i got that straightened out she's looking way better now all right the rain has finally slowed enough that i can use the camera again anyways the passenger fender is now on and properly gapped and actually looking pretty good i'm gonna sit down and have myself some supper another half my subway sandwich from like one o'clock and then finish up this side chicken bacon ranch your beautiful bastard hey comment section what's your favorite subway sandwich or even like sub in general if subway is not your thing so there we go yeah calamity my favorite all right our fenders are hung it's now time to get all this electrical back in its home of course requires figuring out where the hell it's home is for starters [Music] all right get all this wiring back in its clips the best of my ability which is not very good and then fish everything through for the headlights now that all of our wiring is in place it's time for the absolute most crucial critical part of the entire truck the horn we might only have two body mounts in the entire truck but we'll be safe because we have horns time to add a little style to everything put our valence band this thing has been literally absolutely perfect oh sorry i like there's one little deck but besides that perfect condition i do not understand how the front of this truck is so straight and clean and actually there's i haven't seen a single dent in the entire truck so someone really cared for this thing at one point if i had a gas it spent most of its life with the front half and the shed and the ash half sticking out all right i've got the hood hinges and the antenna on now it's time for this lower valence after i take these bolts off that i forgot all right get that bolted into place time to put our grill on not bad for a full day's work definitely feel like i did less today i mean yesterday i put the whole body on and made the motor run and today i just put fenders on but in all actuality this was an ass load of work because we now have a radiator core support we did bushings everything here under the hood is done it is currently 11 p.m and it is time for me to go home so i'm not making a bunch of noise at these people's place and they don't come out with a baseball bat and beat the heck out of me so i'm gonna load the truck up and do quick inventory with their tang tools which is really really easy because everything is in organized foam trays so i can go i know i got all my tools lock that sucker up and head home to go to bed tomorrow morning i'm going to bring mook out here to help me put the hood on so i don't damage anything and help me bleed the brakes and we'll see if this thing finally drives i may have literally done all this work just to realize that has a bad transmission i don't know yet that's that's just part of it part of the fun all right i'll see you guys in the morning peace all right day three the final day now i said it'd take two days i know i said i'd do it myself but hey it took two days for me to do it myself this far and i need someone to help pump brakes and lift hoods and stuff like that and drive the truck home yeah you're right and you sit on a throne of wise what because you said it would take two days i already started here we am three you're stinky well mook what do you think well it's a ram charger well if you don't like this one there's another one that i uh i purchased yesterday that you can have it's right here you want to see it no come on let's see it bye we got it for 500 bucks ain't that great i just have no idea what to do with the world's ugliest bronco 2. maybe that'll be a future video maybe you should have saved your 500. well let's get a tripod and some tools and get this thing together all right i am going to attempt to put this dash back together step number one is dumping all the poop off of your dash cover thingy bob that's a really important part don't skip it what the heck am i supposed to do with all these now i just need the duct tape just kidding i have to find the screws check it out luke we got light thingies can you turn on the headlights ma'am hey we've got a marker light we got both marker lights all right uh headlights off key on all right left blinker holy right blinker that's a bad bulb outside all right bolt the last piece on up front what you doing my best well i got a bumper i'm gonna go put it on i did it i think it doesn't look right but it's on that's it's kind of the whole truck so far so you're on par there now it looks better all right before we put the rear bumper on i figured i'd fix a little bit of wiring i only had to just reconnect everything and then splice two wires let's see if it worked headlights hey brake lights hey sweet how about blinkers all right holy heck look all the electrical works hey heck well what do you say we uh put that bumper on i suppose me too okay we got our bumper on plastic thing i took off to lift up the body back on it's time now to put this interior panel on and then like that's it at that point we start taking stuff back off because a few things need to fix i know the radiator leaks and i know a bunch of other problems i haven't mentioned yet so my hopes of driving this back to ames not the highest but we'll give it a go we'll let's see how far we make it up moof is putting the icing on the cake right now spinal touches there's no cake however our thirsty dog that i just gave a bunch of water has spilled the water bowl once again what are you doing i don't know if i've shown this by the way check out this bad ass tow truck this guy's got apparently somewhere during the time of the war some company in town needed a tow truck so they got uh i was told a frame from an officer's vehicle and then the body of an old dodge and built all of this and the axle there's something back here it's from a model a they just threw it all together and built this bad ass tow truck and the thing runs and drives and works i'm not gonna mess with it but there's a fly head in there this thing is an absolute beast and i love it all right well there it is as the last piece 1 30 on wednesday started at 11 o'clock on monday the panel gaps are pretty bad but i don't care all we have to do is drive home in the end i have only two of the big body mounts that are working that one i was able to get a nut on this one's stripped out the one on that corner stripped out and that one over there i got a nut on so we've got radiator supports and two body mounts and that's it can i help you i've decided that the uh factory gas tank is going to be a no-go for us today so i plumbed up the boat tank that i carry with me and we're going to run this sucker again until it fills the bowls and sits here in idles [Applause] oh it dies but all right we got fuel at this point mook we uh need to go to town and get ourselves a throttle cable oh no first let's do the brakes see if we break anything doing the brakes let me pick that all up as well that's probably a good call yeah all right let's bleed brakes this is boring stuff we'll be back when it's done all right so our brakes are done i uh blot them up here at the master just to take the short route before going all the way down and do anything on the bottom and sure enough they bled out just fine from up here so we have a nearly perfect brake pedal very little work so i'm very happy about that our interior is all back together as you can see i need to replace the throttle cable because someone cut it and then they also cut the shift linkage so i'm going to take that down to the guy's shot weld it up get those back on and we should be good to go on a little test drive i'm cleaning out the interior a little bit right now i took those ugly seat covers off and honestly this interior is beautiful inside i freaking love the colors of this truck love the interior colors really wish it was in better shape because this thing would be pretty badass to have the reason the camera's on right now is because you've probably seen all these sitting on the passenger seat i thought they were scratchers or something but no they're ticket stubs ac dc at the hilton coliseum in ames december 4th 1990 silver cinemas 10 presents city of angels in 1998 and blade in 1998. pantera and white zombie at the five season center cedar rapids iowa august 6 1996. it's literally like 10 days after i was born oz fest 97 the van's warp tour and oddsfest 98 metallica at the mark of the quad cities in 97. the smashing pumpkins october 1996 into hilton coliseum ted nugent sick lily and bad company hilton coliseum 95 metallica iowa state fairgrounds june 25th 1994. what you're doing i'm just tightening the bingo bango the bingo bango yep oh you mean the shift fork for the transfer case yeah you could think of the word fork i've taken our shifty mcgee off rod thingy you know fork and i'm going to take this down to the other building and weld it quick and put this back in and we're ready for a test drive ta-da good job hacker butt done should we go for a test drive it's a little off it lands on neutral but it works so at this point we fire this thing up check the trans level and see if it'll drive out of the shop let's give it a go all right there it is 4 30 wednesday afternoon the truck i started by myself as a frame monday morning is ready to hit the road let's see if it drives because i still have no idea the transmission works i figured out by the way why i wouldn't start with the key if you crank it and cut it back it'll fire so it's that cranking higher voltage system is not working for some reason [Music] saturn i think it needs a little more trans fluid but it moves damn it so never mind driving home can we get out of the building come over here and use the special wires sorry because it's special yeah we'd be out of fuel all right six gallons of gas let's try this again [Music] oh try four or five [Music] oh sad now so as you can see our four wheel drive light is on i was playing with it there for a minute it is in two wheel drive uh at least the transfer case is but i think the front end works off of a vacuum system which is god-awful and generally if that lights on it really truly isn't four-wheel drive but the front end is engaged so that could be a problem but let's put some air in the tires we're doing that milk are we a moment ago we were doing it now we're just rolling away god okay we're not driving this piece of home not with this car and we're rolling again we're coming down here to get air the guy says he's got an air compressor so brakes work good truck loves to stop and not move anything beyond that no no yeah nope that trans is slippy damn quadrajet this one's junk i finally found a joke one all right let's go for a little road ride and see how i do here bill oh my god man this was literally a frame two days ago that's nuts whoops trans slips like hell the brakes suck the suspension rides a little beauty i don't know why this one moved i don't either it's i i'm gonna say it's 134 000 miles not 34 000 miles oh come on battery i'm gonna go start from the outside i don't think we have much battery left can you keep it running for me i'll do my best and switch yeah it's just slipping out of here there's no way in hell or make it home it would the transition would be dead in two miles no speedometer it's not running hot hey this is still very very very impressive we'll see if we're making up the hill though oh that's what that is well there is no way in hell this thing will make it home nevertheless more than like two miles so we're just gonna we're gonna call her there it smells like a fire it does it's probably on fire i don't know why i won't put it past it at this point but we did it we took a ride in our big pile of and that's that three days ago this is the chassis today drove it a half mile that's pretty good for sale if we wanted to be a couple of idiots and risk our own personal safety and try to drive something this clapped out home we could i like staying alive and i have a flight to north carolina at 8 am tomorrow so there's no way in hell we can be late and we're in our home we're gonna let this sit here uh come back with a trailer in a couple days pick it up and take it back to nevada and we'll at least wash it for him right yeah we'll give it a bath and then we'll do our outro see you there all right so i returned from north carolina hanging out with cars cameras grabbed the six nine and picked up the ram charger it uh it rained over gone so truck's looking a thousand times better already either way right now at the car wash i'm gonna see if we can get this hood to clean up a little bit that's basically all there is this is the roof let's see what happens uh so [Music] well there it is hood cleaned up real nice sides cleaned up really nice and most importantly the roof came out pretty damn well pretty decent looking truck for being such a pile of poop so as you can tell this thing cleaned up pretty decent it's honestly a pretty good looking truck i absolutely love the colors i love that you can sit in and see all the way around you while you're in it and i love the interior and how nice it is but at the same time it has no body mounts it's got a bunch of big rust holes in the back the carburetor's poop and it won't pull any fuel from the tank to be done right this essentially needs unassembled again and put together in less than a three-day crunch so that all the body gaps fit correctly and i just don't have time to do that especially for an 86 ram charger so it's going up for sale i'm gonna go ahead and throw this thing up on marketplace for 1500 bucks and see if anyone wants to give it a second chance at life i'll put the link down in the description chances are it'll probably be sold by the time this comes out but you guys can still use that to follow me on marketplace and see what cards and stuff we have for sale from the show with that being said please don't just message me to message me that's what instagram is for please leave my facebook alone nothing personal i just cannot have 900 000 friends it doesn't work so that's it for my end of the story of this 86 ram charger i hope you guys enjoyed this video sorry we can't drive it home i just like staying alive and there's no way i'm going to drive something with those shitty tires
