Let me introduce you guys and gals to our newest family member "Booger". Booger ( an unfortunate nick name that seems to have stuck) was the victim of Dakota abuse. He started life as a Kiwi Pearl Metallic (PF4) 1996, 5.2 liter, 5 speed, 4x4.
His first owner bought him new and kept him for a few years and for reasons unknown traded him on something else likely easier on gas.
He was then purchased by a fellow which by the looks of this poor truck when we got him was some kid that tried to personalize him in his own unique way by unwinding the torsion bars to lower him. Lowering the rear by removing at least one leafs from each rear spring and adding some kind of body kit that did nothing for his looks but did manage to capture every grain of sand and every drop of water that came their way turning the kit into a rust trap. He also installed a new head unit that could not have been installed more wrong if it had to.
The kid eventualy lost his truck to the bank where he was bought by the guy I bought him from that used him as transport for his construction crew. He installed a front tow bar and a trailer light hook up under the hood to plug into the tow vehicle. They overloaded his weakend springs to the point where one broke at the eylet and just never showed him any love. To ad insult to injury they also gave him his name " Booger"
He was put up for sale where by an act of the Dodge Gods he was spotted by my son on Kijiji. This is Booger as he appeared in his online ad.
