Thanks Bats, I have had a long time to get better at responding to posts online. Most have no actual clue about whats actually done to the car or what went in to it to get it to life. And for the record its Cummins not Cummings 
.
As long as there is a cold cooler and no rain, it can be really fun listening to the comments on the car and my brothers truck.

I grew up in the farm lands of southern Michigan. This is where we put big block V8s into farm tractors, and bolt car bodies onto Chevy Blazer frames.
So I have an appreciation for these type of creations that some seem to see as an abortion. But if somebody takes pieces of what would otherwise be junk, and puts them together to become a unique, operating vehicle again.... they at least deserve recognition for the thought, engineering, ambition, money, and time it took to build it.
And I agree with Bats.... just because I like or dislike something, does not increase or decrease it`s value to anyone else but me.

BTW....I love this! But 11.88? He has a LOT left on the table.....there are stock looking 3/4 ton 4x4 Rams out there running that at 7000 pounds.
I imagine it is a stock tuneup......
EDIT: Upon further inspection it looks like this is a 12v and has not nearly the potential of the later 24v common rail stuff....so I now say that that is *wait for it*.........SMOKIN'! LOL!
