    I love that truck. I'd love to own one but, at $200k+, I don't love it that much.
    My compliments to the restorer. Great job.👍👍

    I absolutely love this truck and came close to buying one. Even called Winslow Bent who builds them. The thing is it doesn't have the modern frame and drivetrain to tow 10,000lbs which I needed for my Toy hauler. Bitchin truck no doubt but does NOT have the capability a modern H.D. RAM Power Wagon has. I ended up buying a 2015 Prospector Power Wagon. I use it to tow my R.V. in soft beach and dune sand.

      @@legendarymotorcar Its a beautiful vehicle I am about 2/3s done with a frame off restoration of a 50 Power Wagon and this is my 3rd one. Maybe you missed my comment about the Power Wagon didnt go into production till after the war so its impossible that this would be a "bring back" Also the Power Wagon was NEVER a regulation military vehicle it was Never assigned and "M" designation by the military! My point is and I wont say anymore but your advertising is not correct if its a Power Wagon it cant be a 1943 vehicle and if it is a Power Wagon it cant possibly be a bring back since it was not built till at the earliest mid 46!
      I am done now

    Yeah definitely not a '43. Might want to tighten up your shot group there on the veracity of your statement. I mean, if you get the year wrong in the title of the video...how accurate is the rest of the provided info? 1942-1945 was a dead zone for civilian cars. War production only- anybody into cars knows that.
    I mean for fuck's sake its a restomod with modern seats, swapped axles with air lockers, an automatic transmission (for weak men) and a diesel engine.
