Ok, this is a terribly mean thing to say....

But to me, it looks like a Dog-Catcher's truck.

You ruined my inspiration :evil: Maybe you have a point. But all together, a nicely done work, with a price tag that is probably 1/3 of what it cost.

VM is equipping now all Dodge diesel trucks now! :twisted: :twisted: No wonder Nissan jumped into the Cummins for the Titan.

Well, I think that Italian engineering is by far the best in the world, so I guess that's ok.

Not my thing, it is ugly to me. Maybe the Patrol used though was wasted and not much was savable? Hope so.

I give it thumbs up though for the engine, creativity and the workman ship in pics looks good.

Cheers

I really like the engine and the work was well done, but it reminds me of a 70's Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser. All it needs is the vinyl wood paneling on the sides. :lol:

Mmm, comfy seats. Looks good but I struggle to see the point of the high roof, didn't see a bed in there.
