Description
Lot #1458.1 - This custom 1948 Dodge Power Wagon underwent an extensive and complete custom restoration over the course of 2 years. The body was taken down to bare metal, bodyworked to a high level and then sprayed in Axalta Arctic White and five coats of high-solids clear. This Power Wagon's stance is provided by a custom chassis painted in gloss black with triangulated 4-link and 2.5 Fox 24-inch shocks. The undercarriage also houses a custom aluminum fuel tank. This wagon features a one-off bed accented by functional design features within the hand-planed hardwood decking, custom running boards with custom-machined billet footsteps, hand-fabricated front and rear bumpers, a winch and other custom-machined brushed billet accent pieces. The stunning interior has a smoothed dash that houses a custom set of Dakota Digital gauges, full Bluetooth touchscreen audio system and an aftermarket tilt steering column, and is completely trimmed with premium Italian Hydes. This wagon is powered by a 2018 6.7-liter Cummins diesel engine that is controlled by a custom-built FirePunk standalone harness and features a 60/70 turbo with a 4-inch custom exhaust, backed by a fully built 48RE overdrive automatic transmission with an Anteater standalone TCM. A Dana 44 axle and 14-bolt differentials with custom driveshafts round out its drivability. Fuel is supplied by a FASS Titanium Edition fuel pump. The engine is kept cool by an oversize radiator with an electric fan. It rides on 20-inch Mack Detroit Steel wheels riding on 37/13.5/20 tires. This Power Wagon has been driven 2 miles since the build was completed.
