Whats a "grail" worth?

For it to be a grail it really needs to be a stick (215 pump) but...
Price will depend a lot on your area and the condition, at 82k that truck should be in exceptional condition. I have the tan leather in mine and really like the color.

A Grail was the dish, plate, or cup used by Jesus at the Last Supper. It is rumored to be protected by the most vicious and vile main eating rabbit.

The 'grail' is a 98 quadcab 12v 5 speed truck. Because you get the rear doors, the reliable 'mechanical' motor, and the big 215hp P7100 in a Dodge.
This quadcab combo was only made for 4 months.

There were far more automatics made, and the clubcab (no rear doors) was still made then too.

Try and find a reg cab 2wd dually. I'd pay more for one of those than I would a QC/SB 2500. As long as its a 5 spd.

Wow... guess I have the holy grail in my possession right now. If someone begged hard enough I might sell it.

Was there a difference between the '97 & '98 manual 12V?

The '97 3500 was a 2WD Dog... that truck following the F**d debacle is what caused me to swear off of #2 for a while.

Power wise? No.

Both were rated at 215hp with the 5spd (except for Cal emissions, those were 180hp motors). Actually, 1996-1998 5spd non-Cal trucks were 215hp.
