New Ram owner in Illinois!

[Moparornocar]

Hi, names Chris. This is my first Ram, but ive owned several Mopars before so im pretty familiar with them. I just picked up this 99 shortbed V6 truck for 800 bucks a couple days ago. Not planning on doing a whole lot custom to this one, just repairing whats broke and repainting it and keeping up on the mechanicals. Enough jabberin, heres the pics.

Thanks for the welcome all. I spent today fixing the dent in the hood from it flying up on the PO. Got about half the hood D.A.'ed down and the exhaust valve on my shop compressor bit the dust. Ill be fixing this one up one panel at a time. Also been shopping for a set of manual doors or all the wiring and crap to fix the power doors on mine. Here is a pic of the work on the hood today.
