NON Chevy’s in the Wild

More details please… gears, diffs, trans-n-case and I assume the big inch motor is a stroked RB “440” what heads and such - we must have details.
Gears are 5.?? don’t remember the exact ratio.
Dana 60 and 70 axles with Detroit lockers
435 (4 speed) trans
205 t-case
Stroked 440, not sure what components he all used IMG_1855.jpeg
 
WOW !!
Now that is a collection - in my opinion the 69 BOSS429 cars are the coolest look’n things out there with chrome bumpers - well, maybe after a 67 L-88 Vette..
 
The Yota belongs to a Buddy of mine who is damn dangerous with fab equipment…
He’s gotta 4BT & TH400 ( outta bread truck ) wait’n to go in and a C/C narrow 14B w/ 3.73’s and don’t ask about the extra doors - this is the fourth truck he’s done that way…

As for the General Lee and ole Roscoe’s ride , I thought that I was driving through Hazard County when I saw these this morning.

All that fab work and still ifs... why?
I asked the same question - said it was for better ride comfort of the GM IFS setup.
I’ve learned to just roll with it no matter what is being built and just answer questions when asked and not go down too many rabbit holes on why things are built certain ways - it’s entertaining…
I’m just his gear set up guy and don’t often ask things like why - I think that last part rhymed.

Crazy moment yesterday, I had a little Christmas present from the car gods. I saw my old BMW 530i. Crazy set of events made it happen, was at my cousin’s for Christmas dinner, he didn’t have a corkscrew, I offered to get one, stopped at a liquor store and when I walked out I noticed something- a dark grey, 2003 (one year only grill) E39. Looked closer, it’s a 530i with the M-sport package, tan interior, and the one tell-tale scratch on the driver’s rear quarter panel. Was going to snap a pic but someone was sitting in the passenger seat and seemed odd. I had that car for about 10 years so I knew it when I saw it. Pic from when it was mine.

I'm liking all this dodge action.....is this some sort of power wagon rally?
Yes, annual Dodge Power Wagon reunion in Fairfield, IA, usually the first full week of June.
I’ve been going to it for about 15 years (I have a Dodge M37).
