Identify this truck
Can anyone tell me the model (WS, LT, Laramie???) of this 1994 Dodge truck in the image below? Looks like an 8' bed? Trying to determine what class it would fit in Stock (360).

Re: Identify this truck
I believe the only difference on truck model is usually
equipment, and sometimes badge. It should be easy to claim any trim level with just a badge change at most. I have raced Dodge trucks in stock for several years....... I would myself prefer to run a short wheelbase despite the length of the old pro stock truck. The full size 80s Dodges are 115 short and 131 long as I recall... Do not recall length of that year Dakota. |

That truck ran O/SA at the Reynolds Divisional last October. And yes, John has certainly run some famous trucks but he'd have to elaborate on that. Kelly Thomas runs a wicked fast short bed FI Dodge (ex-Teuton) out of Seattle.

John, does Car Craft magazine still pay you royalties? They should, they sure posted great pics. I particularly liked the pic of you still focused on the lights, even as they flew off the tree. Also the one that looks like they were getting the big lights mounted on a crane out of the way, guessing they thought you might make another qualifying run.
(Google "Car Craft John Irving Tree Killer" to see a very famous truck). Glad you can still laugh about it, a sense of humor goes a long way in this life, right Buddy? |
Re: Identify this truck
I got to meet John and his son a couple months ago. During the course of various story-telling, the tree-killer incident came up. In the middle of the story I was like, "Wait, that was YOU?!" I'd seen the pic before but never put two and two together. Good people. Wish you guys weren't all the way out on the wrong coast!

The truck pictured has a very similar paint scheme to Kelly's truck. These trucks can indeed be wicked fast. I have watched Kelly's truck run .940 under index. I know for a fact that it has been as quick as 11.80's, which is 1.00 under. By the way, Kelly's truck runs in M/SA. |
Re: Identify this truck
Buddy of mine just posted a picture of John's tree mishap on my FB page the other day.
OP-That truck looks like a Ram 1500. |
Re: Identify this truck
Reason for asking is I am thinking of buying this truck. Supposedly was Jeff Teuton's, built as new off their showroom floor in 1994 and has always been a race truck. I'm not up on Dodge products and can't cypher what truck it actually is (full size, Dakota). So far it looks like it would fit M-N-O.
