This is a 1953 Dodge Panel Truck powered by a Vortec fuel injection 4.3 V6 with automatic trans and overdrive. Cruises at 70+ (see video). This old panel was a Poultry delivery truck in the 50's in Jacksonville Florida. It was brought back to life and mated with a 1990 s10 drive train. Any future parts needed are easy to get for an s10. It has the stock s10 anti sway bar in front and an after market rear sway bar with additional overload springs in the rear, and new struts up front. Handles and corners great. It has power brakes, disk brakes in front, and drum in the rear, also power steering with tilt wheel. Duel exhaust with Cherry Bomb glass packs. A working electric windshield wiper, and I have driven it in the rain, no leaks. The rear door glass and rubber was replaced, also new wind wing weather strip, and new weather strip around the doors. Also a NOS Trico vacuum fan that works. The original gauges are hooked up in the glove box so the computer doesn’t get confused. Also has an additional temp gauge under the dash and a GPS speedometer. It has an onboard compressor to power the 24" Grover Air Horn, an original off and old Big Rig. The original bench seat and door panels were reupholstered in black vinyl and alligator skin. The seat shaped headrests were added for comfort and safety. It has retractable seat belts. Also new carpet. It has Riddler rims. 10" in front, and 12" in the rear. Tires are low profile and 80%. A Kenwood stereo with an external amp was added, Two 5 1/4 speakers in the dash, two 6 ½ speakers in the back on the sides, and a 12" subwoofer in the rear. Sound system is awesome. It has a new heater installed, and an original rebuilt Thermador Car Cooler A/C. The car cooler was restored and painted to look weathered to match the truck. The truck was done by a professional Rod Shop, good and solid, done right. I have been driving it when the weather is good for the past 7 years with no issues. Runs cool never over heats. Everyone says it is the coolest thing they have ever seen. It was originally black and has never been painted. I have applied Rat Wax to preserve. It is always garaged, and starts right up every time. Almost forgot to mention the eyes in the Ram hood ornament light up!
