    1950's Dodge Powerwagon with Cummins TD.

    I found this video on google.

    The first video, "Motorworld Massive Dodge Powerwagon".
    I like the pickup from the very beginning of the video, the second trunk is unbelievable. Talk about someone with too much money.

    Lol.. I had to google Merkur Xr4, didn't know what car it was, and had to laugh when i saw the pictures on google; it's the Ford Sierra :D Those are pretty fun cars to drive, especially on snow if it's stock, the rear doesn't need much help before it's thrown out:p

    I've always wanted to do up a moonshine car: big rear springs, steely wheels, tanks in the trunk, big engine and 4 speed trans. I'd like to make it out of an old Fairlane or maybe a AMC Rebel. That or a vintage nascar out of a Torino.

    Just one? Nope, if it's a fantasy build I just can't narrow it down to one...

    I have a long list, but probably the weirdest thing I want to do is take an S10 4x4 frame and run the full-time AWD from a Bravada, Syclone, Typhoon, etc. with a healthy V8. Done that once already and it was great. The part I haven't done though... Put a car on it. Maybe a nice g-body Monte Carlo, Regal or even a Dynacorn Camaro body, Chevelle, I'm not picky. But what I want is a clean, stock-ish looking musclecar with sane, normal looking tires and wheels powered by an engine that would ordinarily need slicks to get any traction. I'd make it a tame, nice ride that looks ordinary in every way except surprise! All-wheel drive! Might even take it a step further and use the push-button transfer case found in later Tahoes and such, so I can take it to the races, do a big RWD burnout, maybe make a pass smoking tires all over the place before I flip on the AWD.
