This place is down the street from where I live, and they are living my dream. They take in totaled and damaged vehicles, salvage and restore the powertrain, and sell turnkey pallets and crate engines. They also make awesome things like this.
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
$40k gets you a 6.4L supercharged Dodge Magnum with a 6 speed manual. This thing is meticulously restored and rebuilt. There is way too much to list here, but I would buy this in a heartbeat if I could.

Like, it’s cool, but it’s not 40k cool.

I have never been a fan of the usual Magnum front end styling and I generally hate body kit type stuff, but this has to be the best looking Magnum wagon I’ve ever seen.
As TAE said, it’s not $40k cool but this one does look quite nice

they gave the Magnum a much needed nose-job for 2007, then killed it a year later.

This is the face lifted Magnum SRT body so it’s all OEM. Those front end parts are EXPENSIVE

I would tend to disagree lol. I much prefer the 06-07 front end on the SRT’s, little more low-k.
But that said, I’m biased.

If I remember correctly, these (and the Chargers) were auto-only because of the way the floor was designed. That goes to reason that there had to be some “modifications” to that part of the car to accommodate the different transmission. I’m curious to see a closer look at how borked that area of the car is now as a result.

I’ve been following this build. Love the work they’ve done. Only complaint is the shifter bezel is huge. I prefer the look of Silver Sport Transmissions, as it uses the same size spot as the auto shifter.
I realllllly want to manual swap my SRT, would just be so perfect.

Cool car. But, I honestly was never a fan of the front end of the Magnum. If they could find a way to incorporate the current Charger front and rear ends, this would be a home run.

Its also got the 2008 only nose treatment, which they killed as soon as they got it right.

I actually don’t think that’s a terrible price. It looks like it was meticulously done and the new parts alone are worth $$$$, then you need to factor in the labor to do this conversion.

I agree that it’s meticulously made, it has great parts, and it is very cool...But it’s still a thirteen year old Magnum. 300 dollars more gets you a new Scat Pack challenger with a manual as well....

I like the idea, but that hood and front clip are hideous.

The price is steep, but I think the effort and quality of the build, plus the exclusivity factor justifies it. People who are fans of the magnum , or even the charger, have wished for a manual option.

If you look into their social media pages, they have photos and videos of the fabrication they did. They really just needed to make the tunnel a little bigger for the trans.

But that’s not a wagon.
