I like it! Poor mans Dyno. I don't know what I'm going to do when my 6.2 goes bang. It runs good but it is a labor of love. I've got so much time and money into it that it is hard to let her go. I just bought a 2001 Ram Turbo Cummings 4x4 with a NV 5600 and 410's . The power band is awesome . But the old 1028 is like an old war horse - hard to put down. I guess the 6.5 turbo might be the way to go. Subscribed to this thread. Keep the pics coming! It inspires me to do the same someday!

M1010 Alaska

I took a picture of a gorgeous M1010 in Dawson Creek when the team was on display downtown.
The truck made this seem like a small continent with that drive so she probably deserves a new heart.

My 1010 could only go to Dawson for the send off and we must toast to the courageous Steel Soldiers that even dared that adventure.

Is this yours?

Coming together nicely! Can't wait to hear it fire up.

Getting close. Glad to see it coming together so nicely. If all goes well, for you, this may be the way I go when my 6.2 eventually craps out. Looking forward to seeing how it all comes together for you.

I'd like to take a look at how you hinged the heater door. I am seriously considering losing the heater in mine.
