i had an 85 chrysler fifth avenue but i sold it last year. the kid i sold it to dynoed it and said it put out 233/318 hp/tq. a big improvement from the 140/260 i started with! well anyways i sold it because it had no heat and it leaked oil everywhere. the kid rolled it 6 times a couple weeks ago and still drove it about a mile to his friends house. well ive been looking for an early 80's v8 pickup preferrably a 4x4 since ive never drove one but ive stumbled across a 80 dodge stepside 2wd 318 4 spd. it hasnt run in 5 years but i think i may be able to get it running. ill try to post some pics of it if im going to get it. chances are i probably will just need to get it towed back here as my ranger doesnt have enough ***** to get out of its own way.

 

Hey man, good luck on getting the pickup. I am sure you will be happy to have a Mopar ride again!
