mine was from a movie set company. i don't think it ever was a film star though, it hasn't got an engine. that's fine though, there is a 454 sitting in my old truck ready for the swap.

A 454 in a Dodge? Go blow your head off, you obviously aren't using it anyway.

His front boggers are backwards......
Looks really stockish. Would look better lowered with some bigger radius fenders.

Here's mine as of now. It is not complete, obviously.

Stock motor, trans and transfer case as of now. It does need more power but will crawl over anything in low range. Square homemade driveshafts. Front and rear Rockwells, both welded. PSC full hydro with the 3x9 ram, Corbeau Baja SS seats. Front 3 link with panhard using stock '05 gas F250 coils and 8" travel shocks. Limit straps on the front. Stock leaf springs in the rear (3 or 4 link to come) with 4" block. The truck sits level so I guess front lift to be about 7" over stock. 46" XMLs on 20x11 Unimog rims with Unimog centres cut out and stock split rim centres welded in. I am working on the pinion brakes now.

While I have no respect for your choice of engines, I have to say that I laughed my ass off at this reply, lol.

Mr. Fcfred as everyone seems upset with your choice of engine, I have a trade in mind. I am willing to trade strait across for a 4.0L Lexus motor that I took from an LS400. Great fuel economy and lower emissions. Great for a dd.

I also have a supercharged Toyota V6 with a 6spd manual if that works better for you. Might even throw in dual mini truck cases if you want the ultimate in reduction.

Let me know.

I'm pretty sure thats a Kaiser M715 (IE jeep), not a Dodge M37. could be wrong, but look at the grill. Looks like jeep truck to me.

Yes, that last pic is a Kaiser-Jeep M715 1 1/4 ton cargo. It replaced the 3/4 ton M37 in the late 60s until the Dodge M880 series replaced the M715 in the '70s. The M715 and M37 have very little in common except for the transfer case. Both had 230 ci inline 6 cylinder engines but they were completely different.
