Ocala, Florida
1962 Dodge M-37
The Lammers are currently in the process of restoring this warhorse to military specifications. And while not being tinkered on, this vintage military vehicle is spending its retirement entertaining our veterans at parades, air shows, and other charity events. Bob White Rochelle Park,... Bob White
Rochelle Park, New Jersey
2001 Ram 2500
This big-rig was modified and customized by Auto Works Diesel. Some of the improvements include Stage-Five injectors, an Edge Comp drag box, and a Fast System, along with a few other aftermarket accessories. Love the stacks. Changing the rearend gearing is the last thing to be checked off the wish list, and this build's done.

1956 Ford F-800
This is an absolutely fantastic machine. To help improve ride quality, a 1998 Freightliner air leaf suspension has been added along with a 40,000-pound Rockwell rear-axle assembly and a 1977 Dodge B-700 front axle. This Ford's hobbies include cruising, car shows, and intimidating other motorists. Richard Dean Suisun City,... Richard Dean
Suisun City, California
1997 Ford F-150 4x4
We can't even to begin to tell you how much has been done to this absolutely fantastic Ford. A few of the basics: ATI ProCharger, JBA headers, Borla cat-back exhaust, Manik brushguard with a Warn winch, 18x8.5-inch Cragar wheels with 35-inch BFGs, Alpine CD/MP3 player/changer, and, of course, the lighting, suspension, and body have all been modified. Absolutely amazing.

1999 Isuzu VehiCross
Wanting a bit more pep, a custom red Alpine Developments supercharger has been added, along with a shift kit and cat-back exhaust, while Power Slot rotors and braided brake lines help when stopping. This Isuzu sits atop 18x8.0-inch Borbet wheels with 225/55R18 Toyo Proxes tires keeping it planted to the ground. According to David, all he wants is more power. James Mullett Lakeland,... James Mullett
Lakeland, Florida
2001 Chevrolet Tahoe
Leaving the transmission and suspension stock, Mullett added a three-inch body lift, Flowmaster exhaust, Airaid intake, Westin bull bar, side steps, DVD system, and massive 16x10.0-inch Eagle wheels with 315/75R16 Wild Country tires. The only thing left on the build list for Mullett is a six-inch suspension lift.
