This is my 86 Ram 50, it was handed down from my dad to me in 1991 when I turned sixteen. It has been in sitting in a barn out in Iowa for more than two decades. I have since moved to Pennsylvania and just a few short weeks ago I pulled her out of my friends barn and loaded her up and trailered it back 1,100 miles.
It was originally the 2.0 in front of an automatic and I'm now starting the 360 swap with a 904. I'm not much of a social media person, but I will try to post along the way. So far I have block and trans in their final position and swapped out the stock open differential with LSD. I was so excited that I finally found a limited slip I had to put it in right away.
Plans for this 50 is the V8 swap of course, but trying to make it look like something that could have rolled off the factory floor using parts from the era and using as much OEM as I can.
