Nah is okay no one was hurt. But i am really exited to get started on my cummins conversion. I think i have the best donor truck you could really get as far as ease of conversion. i believe the hardest part is going to be the 4x4 conversion and finding the time to do all the work. O yeah and rounding up the money haha!! Thanks alot for your help and your info! hopefully I have the time to do a build tread also that would be sweet

No one hurt is what matters most.

My truck is a crew cab also and I'm excited to see your build because I wouldn't mind doing this same conversion myself. But I also think a 454 5 speed would be a lot of fun.

I have never dealt with a cummins to much but my 454 runs too good to just pull it out.

If not even sure if you can classify that as stealing, Nice buy man. Question is would you like your money back?

It never hurts to ask right? As far as having a donor truck yours is perfect and great for a budget build.

I'm thinking you might just drop the attitude about such a bad day, and it being your birthday and all, and be thankful. Looks like it was a pretty damn lucky day to me. I'da stopped off and bought a couple lottery tickets and happily started making plans to transplant the powertrain into my square.

Glad to hear you're OK. And thanks so much for getting another DODGE off the road, all while giving a square the best powertrain it could possibly have. Seems like a great situation to me. Cummins in the Square for my Birthday??? That's a good Birthday.
