Default New mopar guy from AR

I was told about this site from my friend Silverado_13. I have always been into Mopar and since I do have a few trucks (My 83 D-150 and 06 2500 Megacab mainly) I figured Id come here and see what you guys are up to. Im 15, and live in AR. I help one of my friends work on cars that come in his shop. Some of my hobbies are drag racing, and just workin on cars.

Heres my ride, Ill get some better pics later.





Its a 1983 Dodge D-150 truck my dad bought new in 83 with a 318. It had a 440 in it with a cam in the late 80s and 90s but he put the 383 in it to get better mpg. Now its my truck and it needs some updating. Right now it has a 383 Big Block Mopar in it, with a 650 cfm Holley 4 Barrel, Edelbrock intake, 2 inch headers with 2.5 inch straight pipes. 2.91 gears in a 8 3/4 Chrysler rear end. Its got 15" Weld Racing Wheels, custom tonneu cover, custom sunroof, and lowered in the back 2 inches.

My future mods are American Racing Rebel B Wheels 17", lockin rear differential, 3.44 rear gears, Road Runner spec 383 Cam, Airgap intake, Pioneer sound system, 68 Hemi hoodscoop, K&N Airfiler, and new fog lights.

My family also has:
2006 Dodge Ram Megacab Cummins
2005 Dodge Durango 4.7L
2004 Dodge Ram QC Hemi
2003 Dodge Ram QC Hemi
1985 Dodge Ram D-150 4x4 318
and the 1967 Plymouth Barracuda Fastback, runs 7.50s 1/8 mile with a stock 440 topped by a Rons Flying Toliet Fuel Injection.

Welcome man! That D-150 would look clean if you took off all the chrome trim on the sides, trim and badges. But leave the Prospector decal!
