The 5.9-liter Cummins turbodiesel inline-six is said to have been sourced from a 1994 Dodge pickup, and a custom firewall and cowl was fabricated to accept the engine, which is augmented by a P7100 injection pump and an intercooler. The crankshaft was resealed, the “killer dowel pin” was addressed, and the radiator was replaced along with the engine’s plastic trim.
Power is sent to the rear or all four wheels via an NV4500 five-speed manual transmission pulled from the same 1994 Dodge along with Dana 60 front and Dana 80 rear differentials, and 3.54:1 gearing is utilized. The NP200 dual-range transfer case was rebuilt in 2016. The clutch and throw-out bearing were replaced, the flywheel was resurfaced, and the axles were rebuilt. The frame from the cowl to the front of the vehicle has been fully boxed, and the frame was sandblasted, prepped, and refinished in satin-black epoxy frame paint. The underside of the body matches the exterior color with an integrated undercoating blend. The floors have been modified to accept the transmission, transfer case, and shifters.
A two-spoke steering wheel with a horn ring frames a 100-mph speedometer flanked by gauges monitoring fuel level, alternator status, coolant temperature, and oil pressure.
The five-digit odometer shows 98k miles, true mileage is unknown.
