Vehicle Description
Worldwide Vintage Autos is pleased to present this 1983 Dodge Ram.
Clean Autocheck with no accidents, odometer issues, etc.
HISTORY
The first-generation Ram trucks and vans introduced in 1981
featured a Ram hood ornament first used on Dodge vehicles from 1932
to 1954.[1] Not all of the first-generation trucks have this
ornament and is most commonly seen on four-wheel-drive models.
Dodge kept the previous generation's model designations: "D" or Ram
indicated two-wheel drive while "W" or Power Ram indicated
four-wheel drive. Just like Ford, Dodge used 150 to indicate a
half-ton truck, 250 for a three-quarter-ton truck, and 350 for a
one-ton truck. The truck models were offered in standard cab,
"Club" extended cab, and crew cab configurations. They also were
offered along with 6.5 ft (2.0 m) and 8 ft (2.4 m) bed lengths and
"Utiline" and "Sweptline" styled boxes along with standard boxes.
Externally, the first-generation Rams were facelifted versions of
the previous generation Dodge D-Series pickups introduced in 1972.
The new model introduced larger wraparound tail lamps, dual
rectangular headlamps, and squared-off body lines. Engine choices
were pared down to the 225 Slant-6 and 318 and 360 V8s. The
interior was updated and included a new bench seat and a completely
new dashboard and instrument cluster with an optional three-pod
design - a speedometer in the center, with the two side pods
containing an ammeter on the top left, a temperature gauge bottom
left, a fuel gauge on the top right and an oil pressure gauge
bottom right. Models without the full gauge package had only
indicator lights in the place of the temperature and oil pressure
gauges. Among the options offered on the Ram were front bumper
guards, a sliding rear cab window, air-conditioning, cruise
control, tilt steering column, power door locks and windows, AM/FM
stereo with cassette tape player, styled road wheels, aluminum
turbine-style mag wheels, special paint and stripe packages,
two-tone paint, and a plow package for four-wheel-drive models
(referred to as the Sno Commander). SOURCE: WIKIPEDIA
