She said the A/C is ice cold. But I passed based on the rust bubbling up on the bottom of the rocker panels. For $4K I would have bought it, but like you say for 5K expected no rust like she said. The tires are actually brand new 31x10s.

I really wanted a pop top Ramchargers with a manual, but this one looked clean. Guess I will keep looking unless she comes down.

Planning on buying this RCGR tomorrow, the photos make it look pretty good as you can see, but I asked the owner to send some images of the rocker panels since she has red mud all over the lower part of the truck (its in Oklahoma). I asked her to wipe some mud off and send pics but she didn't do a real good job of getting the mud off - but I do see a bit of rust but no perforation.

Anyone see a problem with this, as far as needed more than a good coat of neutralizer and maybe bedliner to arrest what is there. She wants $5000 for truck, which looks good, everything runs. But just wonder how advanced the rust is under the paint, which appears original.

The rust on the rockers is the last two pics.  Buy or not?

Opinions?

Would be quite a drive.about 4 hours....but then for work done right..it would be worth it.
Thanks for the tip.

If I am down that way, definitely will!

Purchasing a 1979 Ramcharger like the one I had the in the 90's. Missed that truck like crazy.  Auto, 360 cubes, 4x4, red and white in all original condition, except for the wheels. Would like to get it checked out for any problems plus have a good place to take it for any major work that needs to be done. In the past I have done things I needed myself like head gaskets and timing chains, but just don't have time anymore with work and family.

Can anyone recommend a good shop in the North Dallas area (McKinney, Plano, Frisco, Denton etc) that does solid work on vehicles like these older 1970s Rams?

Thanks for any help.

Dave
