About my Ram 2500

This truck was hit by a hailstorm & got new sheetmetal, along with custom paint job. I did all of the body work myself as well as paint work. I sprayed Sunset orange on top with Gun metal grey 2 tone bottom. I installed a 3rd gen exhaust brake along with 64/71/14 turbo using 3rd gen turbine housing to accomodate the brake. Advanced Diesel Technology in Arthurdale, W.V. installed a new Cummins engine, oringed my head & rebuilt my NV4500 transmission. The truck also recieved a Southbend 3600 12cb DD clutch. I then installed F1 Mach 5 injectors, Quadzilla Adrenaline, Blue Chip Redline box & Mads electronics Smarty tuner. I installed Hamilton diesel 110# valvesprings & Fluidamper to handle 4500rpm. The fuel is delivered by Airdog through 1/2" lines @ 24psi idle. I replaced the stock springs with HD 3" lift with 6 rear leafs & Rancho 9000 shocks. I have added Sirius satellite radio along with new Pioneer speakers in the doors.

Hey Jamie, Its Matt. I voted for you, but I will remove my vote if you don't stop blowing smoke on my Ford when you drive past my house. LOL Great work on the restoration, top notch no doubt!

That's gorgeous - love the 2-tone.  I'd like to see a picture in the sun - that would really make the paint pop.
