PRIME MOVER finally located!!!


After a long wait (and life endlessly delaying my restoMOD), the powerplant for my project has been located and is in my driveway! I stumbled across a '96 RAM 3500 Dually on EBAY, but missed the end of the auction (because I was not paying close enough attention - DUH). It was very desireable mostly because it was in MA (only 2.5 hours from me), and it was a work truck (I didnt really want to rip apart a nice truck). The auction winner was the sole bidder (very unusual), and was an EBAyer for about 4 days. I emailed the owner, and told him I would come get the truck if the auction winner didnt follow through. It was a long shot, but past experience has shown me that new users sometimes freak out when they win their first auction - then they disappear. Two days later, I get a return email saying the auction winner was a deadbeat, and a week later I drove the truck home!
It is a '96 Standard cab 2WD Dually, 215HP 5spd, with 173k on the clock. The frame is a bit rusty, but the body is all rust free. As soon as I can rip the PRIME MOVER and the NV4500 out, the rest is for sale....any takers???
