Did the power rams have a hood ornament?

[David Vandercook]

My 86 power ram 250 has no hood ornament or holes for one. The previous owner told me power rams didn't have them, but I keep seeing pictures of ones that do. Did they put them on or do I have a replacement hood?

some came with them and others didn't . I am not sure what model came with them

Every Royal SE and LE trim level truck I have owned originally came with the ram head ornament. None of the others have/had them.

My base model '93 power ram had the chrome base, but ornament missing. Dunno if hood is original. I put the ornament on it.

 

[David Vandercook]

Yeah, I have no clue what trim mine is. The original owner died so a lot of the papers and information are missing. I might just put the ornament on anyway.

Afaik, the base models have no lower body trim or wheel flares.

My '87 1/2 ton did.

 

[David Vandercook]

I guess I turned mine into a base model then. I pulled the trim all off because half of it was missing

My 85 came with one and it was a Royal SE trim.

My memory may be bad, but I seem to recall they stopped putting them on because they were famous for being stolen.

Yeah, the only ones I've seen with hood ornaments from 91-93 have had them added on. Kind of a shame, they look really good on there.

My 05 Power Wagon didn't have a hood ornament. I still have the front as new PW embroidered carpets if someone wants a super deal.

I had a Ram Charger that had a Ram on the hood. Forget what year it was. Pretty good vehicle, lot of room, looked good. Mother-in-law called it a buffalo charger.

As an add-on, I saw a Cummins / Manual truck where the owner had taken one of the old hood ornaments and made it into the shift knob. The ram was face down so the horns provided roughly the same curvature as a ball would. That's been over 20 years ago and still one of the coolest little mods I've ever seen.
