I've just picked up a new truck here in the uk . So thought I'd better sign up and get an intoduction on here .
I own a VW and Porsche restorers here in England but have a bit of love for anything unusual as well . I was offered my truck recently and had to have it .
I'll post up some pictures in a build thread but it's an ex US army double cab that was then used as a fire rescue vehicle on an airport .
Badging says power ram and F250 but I'm struggling to work out exactly what it is and I don't know exact age as its in a q plate here which means that there was not enough dating information when it was registered in UK .

I'll get some pictures up ASAP and hopefully you can help me out getting it ready for the road again

Regards Jon

If it says F250, then your at the wrong website. An F250 is a Ford, this is a Dodge RAM forum.

Either way, welcome and good luck with the new truck!!

If it's a WW2 truck then most likely a Dodge.
