Vehicle Description
Fuel mileage mattered more than flash, and that's exactly the kind
of logic behind this 1983 Dodge D150 YS2 Miser finished in black
with cream YS2 decals running down the sides. This truck keeps its
footprint short with a factory short bed and sits right on 15-inch
steel wheels matched with 205/70R15 tires. Brightwork holds its
own, and the grille surround retains a clean finish. The bed is
fitted with a liner and all glass appears solid, supported by
well-kept gaskets.
Carmine cloth bench seating anchors the interior with a no-nonsense
approach. Door panels match the layout, and the driver's armrest
features a patch fix. A floor-mounted shifter handles gear duty,
and the factory gauges remain clear with an added tach neatly
placed for function. Carpet lines the floor while the AM/FM radio
stays period-correct, and power steering is equipped.
A 225 cubic inch Slant 6 engine pairs with a 4-speed manual
transmission from New Process. Fuel delivery comes by way of a
2-barrel carburetor, and exhaust exits through a single system with
an aftermarket muffler. Suspension is handled by coil springs and
shocks up front, leaf springs in the rear. Power brakes up front
are standard fare, and the truck is backed by a Chrysler 8.25 rear
axle.
