Supercar prices, immaculate construction, and a Cummins engine pushing 600 pound-feet (813 Nm( from under the hood - yes, it's another project from Legacy Classic Trucks. This 1948 Dodge Power Wagon 4-door restomod is purely for the hardcore collectors!
The Dodge Ram Power Wagons were fantastic trucks, built from the 40s right up until the late 60s. People say these things helped build America after the war, but this one doesn't have any of the scars from its life of servitude.
"The classic Power Wagons are just amazing trucks, and they are absolute smile magnets when other drivers seem them out on the open road. This is the truck that helped build all the bridges, dams, and roads out West that everyone road trips across during the summertime season," said Legacy Classic Trucks Founder Winslow Bent.
Bent is known across America for his work. If you've ever looked at an expensive Power Wagon or one that's being featured at the Easter Safari, chances are he had something to do with it.
The first thing that caught our attention here is the price tag, as the restomod Power Wagon is currently available for sale for $350,000. It might seem silly to put supercar money into something like this, but Bent says he put over 2,000 hours into this thing, and it shows.
Hidden behind a shade of dark metallic red is a fully restored 4-door body. Most of the other elements have been finished black for a subtle, stealthy look. The truck is equipped with a winch upfront, but we think the chances of getting stuck are pretty low.
We've seen Power Wagons climb up impossible hills, and this one has been equipped with Cummins 4BT diesel engine with twin turbochargers, which produces 350 horsepower and 600 pound-feet (813 Nm) of torque. Legacy has built over 100 of these trucks and can also install the LS3 Chevy engine with 430 horsepower or a supercharged number with 620 hp.
