Great looking truck Tom, congrats!
This one isn't mine but mine looks exactly like it:

Did I say eight? I forgot about the basket Bonneville and Commando I have!

Geez and I thought I had a lot of them.

 

[AtomicEraTom]

Thank you!

Which year is your Ram? Does it have the Hemi with the 4-cylinder shutoff?

My buddy had one of those.

Unfortunately, it met an untimely demise recently.

Geez, the Ram got rammed. :doh:

 

[AtomicEraTom]

Yup and that's the very reason I bought my new truck. He was going to just haul my trailer for me whenever I needed, but obviously such is not the case anymore.

You sure you can't fix that Tom?

 

[AtomicEraTom]

His cousin is the guy I take all my stuff to that I don't do myself (which, these days is most of it) and he wants nothing to do with it. The insurance company declared it a total loss.

You just need a new front end.

 

[AtomicEraTom]

The box was also smashed up, as well as a couple doors.

Geez man! Did a train hit it after the van?!

You mean the Ram can't get rammed? Its them damn new fangled trucks, I tell ya!

 

[DesertDan]

Unfortunately even trucks these days have a lot of fiberglass in place of steel.
In answer to your question Tom, yes it is a 2006 with the 5.7 hemi with 4 cyl shutoff.

 

[AtomicEraTom]

No, a TrailBlazer hit him from the opposite side that the van did.

lol lol lol lol I imagine my old Ram would have withstood it better.

Tom,

It's a shame, too. I hate plastic. Give me metal any day.

That 4 cylinder shutoff is nice. If I could have found one in a standard cab, long box, 4x4, I would have bought it.

My big block is thirsty!

That stuff is doable today but when Cadillac first tried it with the 4-6-8, it was a mess. Twenty years later we can do what they wanted to do then.

Tom, too bad you couldn't salvage the chassis and stick it under something like this '70 Dodge D200. That would make a neat hauler.

Frankly, if that truck were driving, I'd probably own it by now. I really love those '60s and '70s Dodges.

 

[AtomicEraTom]

We thought of doing the same thing with my '89 Ram.

This followed me home today. No plans to hot rod in particular, just to clean up, repair, and drive while my Falcons are laid up.

It's a beauty. Screams for a stingy brim hat and maybe a skinny tie

Okay, I confess that this pocket rocket is not _my_ car. I'm not even sure it's completely a car although, in fairness to myself, neither is the builder.

It sure was fun to drive, though, and there are some neat pictures here. As retro as it gets... but new.

Some here may enjoy it.
