This one-of-a-kind custom work truck was built for the Mike Rowe Works Foundation, starting as a ’62 Dodge Power Wagon delivery and transformed into a unique four-door pickup. Mounted on a modified 3rd-gen Dodge Ram frame, it features a full off-road suspension and is powered by an 1,100hp Hellephant-spec Hemi, custom-built for the project with an 8HP95 transmission. The flatbed is a one-off custom design, showcasing extensive modifications that make this truck a true work of art. Unveiled at the Barrett-Jackson booth, it will be auctioned for charity in January 2025.

1957 CHEVY 3100

BOOTH: FEATURE VEHICLE

This custom truck is built on a RoadsterShop RS4 chassis, which has been powdercoated and fully detailed. Partnering with Little Shop MFG, we developed a massive 16-in. brake kit to fit the RS4 chassis as well. We collaborated with Greening Auto Co. to create a one-off three-piece wheel for the truck. Extensive body modifications include molded drip rails, radius door edges, molded in fender filler panels and seams, radius bedrails welded all of the seams in the tailgate. One-off fuel filler in the bed…the list goes on. The engine bay is fully customized with bespoke inner wheelwells, an air cleaner and valve covers. Inside, a completely scratch-built interior is complemented by retrofitted electric running boards.
