I bought an '89 Ram 250 4x4 with 5.7, 3 sp. auto. I put some $ in tires, windshield & other repairs. Using as occasional hauler w/ 4wd for around my property; running 1x/wk or less. DILEMMA
When new truck had every option Dodge offered (including sun roof) and it all works. There is no visible rust anywhere. Upholstery, carpet, door panels, roof liner all original and in ok to vg shape. The radio is the only non-stock item.
DILEMMA
Is it worth selling for restoration? If I just continue running it things will eventually deteriorate. Is this a candidate for restoration? I am ok with keeping it 'til I die (I'm retired) and the truck will most likely outlast me.
