After breaking the chassis on the old truck, my wife and I decided to build something a little different. One of my customers at my shop had this old Power Wagon at his maple sap house and sold it to me for $500.
Started with a new frame from a 2nd gen Ram and weight box from Kevin Panacek in Jersey. From there I cut off every bracket and mount on it and started fresh with mounting the front end, which I salvaged from the old build.
We set a mock up engine in and started building from there
My wife welding in the engine mounts
Starting getting the rear in
To be continued..............
