Let's see your Dodge pickups

First photo: My '95 Dakota, 318 5 spd (with my 71 Scamp). Owned it since 1996 and then sold it in 2015 to someone who ended up being another FABO member. Has over 250k on it but it rusted out pretty bad now.

Second photo: My '88 D100, 318 2WD auto. I don't have it anymore but sold it to my cousin so it's still in the family currently.

Third photo: My daily driver now. '04 Quad cab, V8 5spd 4x4. I like it. Needs some things done like new headliner and bed rust addressed but only 74k on it right now.

@VSTwister Do the headliner on the white Dakota yourself. My wife and I did the one in her 04 Quad cab Dakota. You have to gut the interior, seats and all to get the fiberglass headliner board out, but it's not hard. Get all the old material off the fiberboard, and the wire brush it good. Go to the upholstery supply place and buy new headliner material, and glue it on. One thing I would do over is to buy glue you use in a spray gun vs the 3M canned glue. The canned glue works fine, but I didn't buy enough, and tried to stretch it out at the end. We had one corner that didn't stick well, and had to fix it later. Get 3 cans if you use that kind. You can buy the plastic fasteners that hold the rear of the headliner new at the dealership. It's not that hard, and you will be able to do it for about $50 yourself instead of $400 or more if you pay to get it done!
