  • The intro on how I made the Dragon Wagon. A completely DIY expedition truck build made from a 5ton Military Truck with the reliable Cummins 6CTA 8.3L engine, a HEMTT stylized cab swap and a 1987 Fleetwood Prowler.

    You were so lucky to be able to body swap like this, I looked forever for a way to do just this but because I live in California, I never could find a way to do this.

    The local Motors Rallyfigher was way ahead of it's time.
    Now would've been the time, because more and more are creating such vehicles. Porsche 911 , lamborghini huracan received lifted rallycross style versions, where the rallyfigher would've had the potential clientele.

    Please do an inside the camper video. I want to see how u function being that u pieced it together. Does the camper still have tanks black & grey? Things of that nature. It's a really neat vehicle. One of a kind. The places u can go in that has to be the coolest. Plus, u don't have to leave once u get there. Just set up house. Lol

    If it were my project I'd start replacing the camper siding with something more sturdy. I've always wanted a bulletproof camper :)

      Yes, I was the 11th hired employee. I helped build every Rally Fighter ever manufactured. I worked at Local Motors for nearly 7 years and lived in the parking lot near the end of my tenure.

    • @startupslick
      @startupslick  Před rokem +2

      ~$14,500 with the tires, paint, camper and pivot system. I probably have an additional $3000 in the solar system now.

    How did you insure it in the USA?

    • @startupslick
      @startupslick  Před 9 měsíci

      You can insure anything in the USA. Some American movie stars even insure their own body parts. They way I insure the DragonWagon is through what is called an "agreed value" policy. My insurance company knows of the modifications and we work together to agree and assign a value to the vehicle and its intended use case. They underwrite the policy based on what we agree on and I am able to get insurance for the vehicle.
