nice RC!
I think it looks like Ginger to me...have a big horn and that is one of its colors.
I think that white factory wagons would look great on this one... 
Thanks, yeah, I'm not sure Sunburst or Ginger, what's the code for each for 1980?

Thanks for the info. I see the difference between your caps and mine. Makes sence on the shoulder belts but I would of thought by 1980 the govt. would of made the manufacturers install shoulder belts standard but I guess trucks were given a bit more room on the safety regulations. I don't need any shoulder belts, not like I'm gonna crash the thing anyway!

Does yours have the pins that stick out on the male part of the buckle for shoulder belts?( e-body style?)
I can check the codes later.

I've always loved the '70s Dodge trucks (probably why I still have two of them)  I saw that one at the Farmington show, good buy! Congrats! I'd like to get a Ramcharger for my collection someday, but I'd rather have a 74-79 with Fulltime 4wd and 727 trans (my preference). I'd love to have one with full removable roof as well...even a Plymouth version would be cool! JS

thanks, there was tons of people looking at it including me and after I drove it, for 1/10 the money I sold my Challenger convert. for, I figure, what the hell, buy it! And the full time four wheel drive is fine but I actually like the part time with the factory lockout hubs which to me kinda screams the 70's-80's era 4X4 trucks from the big three. Plus the 4 speed was something I wanted too! Yea, I'm happy with it!

Here is the setup for the shoulder belt connection. The shoulder belt part hooks into the lap belt on this pin.
The paint code should be on the lower left corner of the tag.
Perhaps T6 or T2?

yea, I see the pin. mine doesn't have the pin so I guess they all didn't come with the provision for shoulder belt hookup to the lap belt. T6 is the code on my tag.

The cashmere/brown 80 ramcharger pictured above had the lapbelt with pin on the driver's side only.

I guess I better get rubbing on my cashmere/ginger 80TD. Yours looks really nice.

thanks, I was having trouble finding that code/color chart for 80 Dodge truck colors online. I thought my paint color was the sunburst orange.
The truck has been painted in some areas but under the hood looks original.
