I liked it. up Wondered if it was a '72-3 or if someone put an earlier grill in a '74 (they kept calling it a '74 work ).

They "totally restored" a beautiful 73 Power Wagon. The colors were perfect the way it was, the only thing they did right was to keep the original trim and had to go to a junk yard to find better pieces, besides that it looks nice but the ruined an already nice truck... twocents

I'd remove the roof rack, lose the copper cladding on the trim, put some shiny wheels on it and paint it two-tone blue.

Other than that it looks like a sweet truck. stirthepot

Lets see, the tires & wheels suck. The lift is too high. The roof rack sucks, and I don't like the color combo. Other then those few items, it doesn't look like a bad truck.......Gene

I like the truck although not so much the orange trim on the wheels. The only thing I hate is the big tires on 5 lug axles. Nothing says poser 4x4 more than a 37"ish tire 5 lug axles!

Not my choice in color but I do like it. It's just nice to see a shop on TV build a truck...a DODGE truck! So just on that account...I love it!

The color is not my first choice either, but you have to admit, it is unique. Weird way it fits the truck.
The tire/wheel ratio is off. Too much wheel and not enough tire. Poser X2, on top of blown340s comment on the 5 bolt axles. Rubber bands are not for 4x4s. D60/70 combo with some 40" tires, 17" wheels would be better.
The lift is rather high for the tire size. I understand why they did this... to prevent cutting up any of the body. A choice by them, not necessarily everybody would have gone this route.
Roof rack? There is a perfectly good box in the back... Could put items back there? It does look a bit goofy and just adds more height to the truck.
I do like the truck, it was built how someone wanted it, and it does have its appeal. Some of us would have done it different, which would probably be critiqued in some way as well. It is a 70s power Wagon though... gotta love it!
