Re: Kind of cool

Those cummins powered dodge trucks aren't cheap. Granted, he probably started with a wrecked or totally rusted beat up turd of a dodge body, but I can easily see wrapping 10K up in that kind of an ordeal... not including his time.
Not my cup of tea, but I don't think his price is too far off base... and if it truely is a rust free body, we KNOW those panels can bring in some seriouse coin.
the few that popped up under dodge 3500 ram cummins in my area...

After looking at these two pics...


I was also wondering about the wheel base and the 'not centered' wheel.
However, after looking at the last pic;

I noticed how tucked in the rear wheels are... the dodge running gear isn't as wide as it needs to be for the chevy body. So looking back at the one pic again;

I'm willing to bet he has massive spacers in there, or the hubs/rotors off a daul rear wheel truck. They look to be pushed out so far that it exadurates the movement and makes it look way wrong.

It's just a theory though.
