Mopar - D Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 (edited) I I’ll be starting soon on my build off I’m going to finish up my RAM Power Wagon then start on this one. I’ve got some pictures of Dan Gurneys rig that I’m using to build from. I’m still looking for more pictures or information on the rig. I’m going to be changing wheels and tires on the trailer to 15” rims. The White-Frightliner will be my donor for the Dodge L1000. I have Dan Gurney blue ordered from MCW for the truck and car. Here’s where I’m at for now. Edited January 4, 2021 by Mopar - D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mopar - D Posted January 8, 2021 Author Share Posted January 8, 2021 Received notice from MCW that my paint has shipped and I’ve ordered new tires from Scenes Unlimited. I’m getting closer to finish my 2020 RAM Power Wagon so I’m thinking that I will be able to start working on this build sometime next week.

Mopar - D Posted January 8, 2021 Author Share Posted January 8, 2021 I’m waiting to see one in person to I would look at getting one but it will not fit in my garage and with paying what they want I’m not going to be parking it out side. But on the other hand I do like the new Hellcat Durango that will fit in my garage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotnitro? Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Oh yeah that Durango is wicked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Local dealer has a '16 hellcat challenger, been in the showroom since it was backed off the truck and not for sale! He also owns a '10 dragpack f/sd challenger that hasn't seen daylight in a couple of years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
