Arguably no other truck produced over the past 75 years is as tough looking or highly sought after as the Dodge Power Wagon. Drop a Cummins in one, and you’ve built a vehicle that is the envy of most of the car-collecting and diesel world.
Like most gear heads Neal Nissen, the owner of Injected Diesel Performance in Mountain View, MO, is always on the lookout for good project trucks especially if he can stuff a Cummins diesel under the hood and create a fun new ride.

As expected, this potential catastrophe has many late-model truck owners a little uneasy about their $60,000 to $90,000 investments.
