👇HERE IS THE FULL VIDEO SERIES ON HOW THIS TRUCK WAS BUILT 👇 kzfaq.info/sun/PLv4b0xy-gWlbxeyHqSFYNpejtD-ccSa18

As impressive as the Hellcat engine swap is, I think the interior swap is probably more impressive honestly

That is so impressive that you engineered all this to work together. Engine swapping is so much more complicated than it used to be

This an extremely clean build. Brand new interior with the old body style. Doesn’t get better than with new American muscle under the hood. If you ever sell your vehicles I’ll definitely be checking this one out

Love how you got the interior to work. I wish the major car brands would offer interior swaps and motor kits for old vehicles to modernize them and make them reliable

i wish there were shops who knew what they were doing, and could do a swap like this seamlessly

I wasn't expecting that interior when you opened the door, looks sooo good. good job dude thing is amazing

My dad had a Dakota Sport when they first came out in that body style, I remember always wanting a single cab 5.9 R/T with the Cervini Sniper Bodykit. Yours definitely is the nicest Dakota on YT maybe even in the states, especially it being A Hellkota. Keep up the good work & shout out from Dallas

Every time I see this truck in action I am just blown away by how it all works so well. Absolutely in love with the truck man can’t wait till it’s ironed out and going full send.

Those Dakota trucks are still my favorite Dodge trucks I love my big horn Hemi ram but man those lil Dakota's are mean looking, that must be an insane ride...... Have fun be safe.

Love those little 1/4 throttle pulls 😉 I can tell your just sneezing on that throttle, she rowdy as hell bro!

As a previous owner of a 2nd Gen Dodge Dakota. I love what you did with the interior of this R/T. The engine and all is amazing, and got to say it's sad that Dodge never made a Hell Cat Dakota. There are a lot of fans of this gen of Dakota's, hope they find there way to your channel.

Glad to see you got the Hellkota out for a jaunt, and hope your real estate deal in AZ comes through for you! Thanks for the cool content man!

This makes me want to pour some money into my Dakota R/T! Love seeing this on the channel!

Yesss....been waiting to see this. SO clean

Just subscribed, gonna go back and watch the build here tomorrow after work. Shit is SICK man nice work!

I have a 1999 with a rebuilt engine, new exhaust, new front suspension, and new brake lines (original rusted out), and despite having a tenth of the power of this one I can tell you going for a drive today with the dog was just as satisfying. Moral of the story, don't get intimidated by big projects like this. You can learn as you go and still take pride in it. As long is you aren't a ricer

The exhaust sounds really good.

Watched everything start to finish… amazing work John!!!

First video I saw in your channel. My grandpa had Dakota red color. He loved his truck he barely drove it only to go to check his crops in Mexico. Builds like this what I enjoy watching. Cheers from California

If it was just a picture with the hood closed I wouldn’t have thought anything of it, amazing job!!

My buddy Keenan would have loved this truck!! Great build, and thanks for the trip down memory lane.🍻

you got my sub love the build a nice little dakota kitty

Tires will get flat spots like that from sitting. If you plan on letting it sit for any amount of time consider putting the truck on jack stands. Don't have to take the wheels off, or even get them completely off the ground. Just lifted enough to remove some pressure off the tires. Or air the tires up to max PSI before storing it.

Love the style of the 5.9 R/T minor modifications it’s a fun truck.The dash fitment looks perfect. Bought a wreck and swapped? Cheaper and less labor intensive. Does it have speed sensors for launch and stability control? Sick ride, I’ll be watching. Many are purchasing homes zoned or with the shops to cut overhang and live simple. Been living that dream almost a decade.

Things badass. Love that you did the interior swap

I kinda miss the regular Cali garage content. However, loving the unexpected. Is he moving to Texas, Florida, Arizona. Is he going to a car meet. Is he getting the Hellkota.. ahh. The possibilities.

Super nice!! Subbed, nice content

Man what a badass build! Just found this. Now I get to go watch the build ✊🏾🔥

New to your channel but this is awesome 👏

great video! awesome channe,l new to your channel. had a 92. dakota and a 04 dakota. love em. LOVE your truck very cool!! great build . love from NJ

so happy you got her back up n runnin on the street

My first vehicle ever was a 2001 dodge Dakota this is so awesome to see! I had the v8 magnum but this is awesome!

The Hellkota!! Nice work man, truck came out unbelievable!

Bruh, I've followed this series from the beginning, now you're ripping it around my home town when I'm out of state 😭😭😭😂

I remember my Bright Silver Metallic 2001 5.9 R/T. Extended cab. Very loosey goosey until the tires warmed up 🤣. Kept it completely stock except for a Flowmaster 40 series catback. I never thought I’d love again. Then you made a Hellkota. SOB.

Clean job there. Nice work!!

THATS A SWEET TRUCK. I HAD THE SAME TRUCK STOCK AND THAT THING SMOKED THE TIRES. I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT THAT ONE DOES.. WELL DONE!!

The impressive part is that interior … legend

Crazy how I was looking at a Dakota last week and said “damn this would make a killer sleeper” and next thing you know your video shows up crazyyy !! 😂I think my phones listening to my convos and Texas is a nice place to be 😢

U sir have earned a new subscriber today!! Awesome truck super clean af!

Yo that Viper is fuckng gorgeous so is the truck can't wait to see what other wonders you will bring our way

Your living the dream boss I’ve been here since the beginning congratulations on the success brother god bless everyone watching

Yo bro you have done a superb job on that swap!!! Kudos to your finesse in making the hellcat instruments n dash n steering wheel to work out in your favor... Looks like it came that way from the factory.... Excellent skills brotha...

Saw this truck at my local cat meet this thing is another level of beautiful

Dude has a whole garage full of my dream cars. Love it

Truck looks good sounds unbelievable I can never get enough of the hellkota you are inspiring me to get my 1998 dakota out of the garage it's been in storage since 2000

My first truck was a 4 door 4.7 dakota 4x4 and it was a fun truck. I can't imagine what an r/t with a hellcat swap must be like. The clean interior swap really makes it so much better. Very nice. I miss the old dakotas.

Great job. Excellent looking truck.

Just found the channel recently and caught up, absolutely impressive work. It has me intrigued for a hellcat swap on my charger I have a 5.7 Daytona. Been reading some forums and looking at auctions of damaged/wrecked hellcats and my question is once you acquire the complete set of components are there any shops in the nyc/nj/pa that have experience with a hellcat swap?

The interior is what caught my attention honestly. Badass bro 🤙

Sounds so beautiful

Damn man, beautiful build. Nice work sir.

Congrats on 100k subs

Oh hell yeah I love this video I love that truck. Hoping the weather is better than what the weather channel says. Keep your eye to the sky brother

Its pretty cool to see a hellcat truck.. most people probably wouldnt think to steal that because it looks like a normal one.

You did exactly what I had in mind. I love the Dakota's. 😁😃😊

This is dope. Only shows me why dakotas are slept on 😂 I’m currently working on an eco diesel swap too my 2005 Dakota. Picking up some Dodge Ram 1500 axles tomorrow and I’m going too do an axle swap for some extra aftermarket support

Looks fabulous

I'm not a big Dakota fan, but this swap along with the interior ain't so bad. Nice Job!

Such a great build 🤙

That's a dream neighborhood 😍 and truck. I was at Moparty and saw you but you were busy talking to other ppl and I didn't want to interfere. But live your trucks brother. Wish I could afford to build one. God bless you and your family.

Love the dakota. Its gotta be the only sport pickup ever made with road racing in mind rather than offroad

I think you single handedly increased the value of all 2nd Gen Dakotas

That swap is super clean! 😍

Imagine if this gentleman make this Dakota the ultimate Dakota OVERLAND build how awesome would be

I’ve been waiting for someone to do this

Even the full dash in that truck?! That thing is badass dude!

Awesome truck love the color

I desperately need the links to the headlights and the drop kit, lol. Mines already dropped, but I feel like the previous owner cut the springs and took some leave springs out.

BADASS HELLCAT SWAPPED DODGE DAKOTA

Jealous of literally everything in this video. The Dakota, the hellcrate, the neighbors, the shops 🤣 Thing rips man I can’t believe how well everything works.

I used to have one of those…not the hellcat, but a 03 Dakota R/T single cab, short bed. I miss that truck. Terrible on gas mileage, but was amazing to drive.

I Enjoyed the video as well

clean asf

They just dropping hellcats in ANYTHING nowadays lol much respect fr ✊🏾

Mannnnn, that thing is SICK!!! The interior too? My lord….

Nice to the blue beast back in action. Please add the links when you haveva moment, thanks.

Man I miss seeing the Hellkota. Looks like, from previous vids, you haven't had much luck finding a place. You still considering Arizona area? Well good luck, glad your still putting content out for us. I'm anxiously waiting for more stuff with ole blue lol 👍✌🤘😎🤘

So cool really like it.💯💯😁

Sorry I haven’t commented in a while. Life gets in the way and I don’t get time to do much but just want to say damn I love the Dakota. So beautiful and damn it’s bad ass!!!! It sounds so good!

It's looking good Jon...just bought a house so I had to put mine on back burner for a bit because of the move...but when spring starts up I want to get back to it and get my firewall all welded up and heater box mounted ECT. Still looking for the list of materials you used on the fuel system like I said the video don't have it in the description

That is cool, and even cooler with the interior swap

That is soooo sick bro

This was one of the best swaps yet.

You said pilot point, little town out in the middle of nowhere. I was like hey! Its not in the middle of nowhere i live like 10-15 min maybe even closer haha

that viper is my dream car awesome build 💯

Low this truck remember when he dropped the engine in and there was no interior at all and now this thing is freaking beautiful! Great job man! I bet that was a shit ton of time and effort good on you 👌

Impressive build!

Te quedo de 10 la Dakota con ese motorazo y su interior 👍

I wanna know how you did the interior on this looks so well done

Beautiful truck

That thang Clean

Nice now you can rack up speeding tickets because the speedometer don't work ..I still get a woody when I hear that whine excellent job more love than shade

Very impressive!

Are you going to have it at any car show in the DFW area? I had a Dakota Rt and would like to see this in person.

The fact that it’s a full interior swap is next level

What happened to the mirror mirror adjuster? If I may ask. I'm assuming the BCM delete.

Please make a video on the rear disc break conversion!!!! Questions I have for the disc breaks- 1. Where do I buy the stuff to do it 2. How do I do it 3. How much does it cost to do it 4. Do you have to do your own fabrication to make it work? If so what?

Such a beautiful truck. Bet she is a blast to drive.
