Now now guys. We shall not judge the ambition of others. Let this Dakota be that guys stepping stone to his next project. He just went a little crazy with the spray can after getting a green replacement bumper from the yard. Not all first choices are the best.

I wonder what he did with the rims.

This is nowhere near as bad as the 50k show truck.

My guess is he figured he could get more for the rims selling them separately, or maybe he plans to use them on something else.

I could deal with the hood scoop if he would have gotten rid of the 4.7, and hid like a hilborn style scoop on top of a hemi under there, but that is just WOW.

I don't think that I would be willing to take that if it was offered to me.

to each his own. I hope people dont talk trash about my truck. I admire his misguided creativity. we all have to work within our means. If he would have come on here and said "hey guys, i'm new here, here's my truck", would we be bashing??? There is no manual for a correctly modified Dakota...sorry, I will step off my soap box now.

I have to agree with jkeaton..I made the first post about this truck...

It is not my cup of tea, but he did spend a bunch of time and money to make the truck what he wanted it to be... shaved handles and all!
